EVE Online: Wreathe Wallpaper

New wallpaper for y’all to enjoy.
This time it’s the Minmatar Wreathe Industrial.

I picked her up in my travels according to the plank owners plaque on board she dates back to the Minmatar Independence wars.

On a trip around the world of EVE I docked up at a Urban Management station and saw this mothball Wreathe sitting in the docks.
Sensing an opportunity I got in contact with the owner who happen to be a fellow trader who was looking to get rid of it apparently a late relative of his passed it on to him.
But seeing as he was the owner of a several Freighters I wasn’t surprised he didn’t have a use for it short of reprocessing it.
Anyway he sold the boat to me for a pittance since he was almost willing to pay me to get rid of it.
After some quick restoration work on her she was ready to fly until someone found the plaque with the names of the original plank owners and commissioning date.

She dates back to the Minmatar independence wars with the Amarr, had somehow survived intact and went on to trade for the remainder of her life…

She’s now on display as a memorial to the merchant convoys that travelled the void of space to deliver goods for the Minmatar resistance.

Yes, I know I’m lazy since I quoted my DeviantArt description but that’s all there really is to its backstory.

Team Fortress 2 Crockery

So finally the Valve order came in early last week after a few weeks of waiting.

I had requested a Force-a-Nature tee and a Team Fortress 2 coffee mug to be ordered for me.
Although I haven’t tried on the teeshirt, the coffee mug is simply awesome.Of all things the first thing I tried putting in it was beer, managing to fit 330ml of it with about probably 10~15ml to spare.
Anyways the mug is great  it feels solid, the handle has enough clearance so when you hold it you don’t burn your hand on the mug, the rather thick walls of the mug does help to keep its contents warm for a decent amount of time.
It’s also apparently big enough to perfectly dunk a Krispy Kreme donut into it.

So in conclusion; the Team Fortress 2 Coffee Mug besides being a rather good beer mug, performs its duty very well.
Keeping your cup of Joe warm for extended periods of time, allowing easy access for donuts, preventing burns on your knuckles and looking rather good on any geek or office worker’s desk.

You can get yourself one aswell from the the Valve Store here.
