" Now to talk about the way of my modding, it'll have to start from when I first found out the possibilities from just pens. Way back when I first started modding, obviously there's going to be a starting point. Mine was G2-CTE Evo by Guitrum, in the tutorial, there was this one step that impacted me so much. And that was to insert the g2 barrel into the Hyperjell cap until it clicks into place, this critical moment meant so much to me.
And it was from then I kept striving for a route of modding without outer materials other than pens. Or unless I was using something that's not a pen to be a theme, in which in that case I'll use it. I craved for the discovery of connection between pens, what fits in what and what can be interchangable. After some trial and error, I did come up with something.. But I wont say it's a good mod though, it's Genesis Mod, my first ever original mod. It's a terrible mod by my standards now, but it's an extremely important experience for me."

" A revamped version of my first mod, it has quite a lot of changes, but the main structure has remained." -- October 13th, 2017
" My modding always obeys one crutial rule, that is to stay away from anything that's not from a pen unless it's the main theme. No glue, no tape, no nails, no washers, just pens. It might be difficult to understand, "cutting out possibilities" as said by someone. But I would argue that the "possibilities" that I cut away, are mere limitations to a good mod. Especially the use of adhesive, it does not open up possibilities. It only creates structurally unstable mods. Which I'm not against if it's a mod for spinning, but I highly suggest not using adhesives for more consistent modding. This is the way that I found, to utmost present my thoughts and ideas. Challenging yet rewarding."
" A Frankenstein's monster with bones as nails, and sinew as threads. The purest masterpiece in my mind that I could ever think of. It is only then, that the monster can be a man."
