Here it is, Ladies and Gentleman, the long-awaited, much belated, (now you're elated) Operator Headquaters! Oh, and Sig-fig face reveal.
(Yes, I am just gonna pass that off like it's nothing)
Now, once you've viewed the model, admired the cameos, (seen the face reveal), and wondered about all the lore behind this, read the following speech:
Wow, 100 models. To be fair, I could probably be way past this by now, but I really wanted to make this model special, and, honestly, I'm so glad I waited.
I could (and probably would) make a long speech about how you guys have supported me, been great friends, etc, but I honestly feel like that won't convey it enough.
So! I will pass out shoutouts to those that matter most to me on here. NOTE: If you are not on this list, please do not be offended. These are my closest friends, the people I know the best.
Guitarman2: Ah, good old G-man. Truly my best bud. Always persevering when I won't, encouraging me, building me up, roasting me down. I will never forget you, even if we don't stay in touch.
Thanks for being a good friend, the best friend.
LegoWilderness: LegoWilliam(Piano)Tu(r)ner (yes, that's your new nickname). The POTC fan, the Piano Man, the seldom-posts-but-it's-always-worth-the-wait guy, I could really go on about all your titles.
But the one
I appreciate the most is Big bro. You really are like the big brother I never had, and I deeply appreciate that. Your music, your creations, they're all so inspiring.
Thanks for being someone I can look up to.
KnightofElabor: Yes, the mysterious Knight, from the far-away land of Elabor. I love sharing geekyness, fanboying, and a whole lot of other fun things with you. You're so fun to be around, and you always get everyone excited about the latest Marvel movie, or whatever Spider-man thing it is this time. You're not afraid to be a geek, and I really, truly respect that. That may seem like a silly thing, but it takes courage to do that, and, like a true knight, you do.
Thanks for being my long-lost double.
Greenie Greenflame24: The man of 24 green fires, of silly poetry and shootin' up bacon, and the . . . host of . . . Random dude. O_O
But in all seriousness, you're an awesome friend, Greenie. Always making people laugh, encouraging them when they're down, sparking a joke at the right moment, topping us
all with shooting-wild-pigs-from-helos poems, etc, etc, etc.
Thanks for being that weird/hilarious cousin we all love.
Honorable mentions:

D_R: The storyteller we all wish we could be - you push through to the end with your stories, which is something I can't claim to do.

Ian_TheMage: -_-
Well, that's it for this model! I truly want to thank each and every one of you for supporting me through this, and special thanks to all of those who decided to pester me about things like this 100th model.
Shout-out to my parents for raising me, my siblings for . . . annoying me? No, for being the best siblings anyone could ask for, and especially to God for caring enough about me to want me to be with him for the rest of eternity.
Oh, and check out my Flickr and YT:

God bless each and every one of you.

More models on the way! They will be much more frequent with this 100th out of the way.
