Day 2! Cooler today, but sticky due to rain. Had a big breakfast, ran some errands, and soon: more concerts. Also I saw this duck (and several others).
Made it to the festival! But left after a bit because it is too damn hot. Will return after sundown probably to see evening bands.
Had to swap hotels cause the original one couldn't meet our accommodations, but the new place we got last minute is kind of a vibe that's going to be great at the end of each night
Well my flight was delayed by an hour due to weather but we're in the air! To another continent I go!
I was warned not to load up my AYN Thor with too many games, lest I get decision paralysis. I did not heed this warning. Lo and behold, I am now faced with decision paralysis.
Everyone please wish me luck as I head to the airport and get ready for a 14 hour flight followed immediately by another 2 hour one. Praying for an easy time through TSA and that nothing is overly delayed.
It's such an absurd, clown shit statement to make, especially from someone who espoused so much about proper research, libraries, etc. Like man fuck off with that.
Day job in the industry turns into night work on the side projects most of the time, turns into "catching up" on side projects on the weekend... So no.
What a week it's been.
All geared up to go out on a walk, weather's been great all day, about to step out, it starts raining.
These new Kazuhisa Kondo style Geara Doga model kits are so gorgeous. I'm so excited to get these in hand and paint them up after years of wanting to get one of the old garage kits.
Sorry for being shirtless, but I started a tattoo project I've been meaning to for ages and I wanna show some of the progress from the first session because I'm excited.
Like just the use of color alone on this page does o much to convey mood, and then you get into the way he plays with shadows, scale, framing. If you're into Star Wars or great comics in general, you owe it to yourself to read the Dark Empire stuff.
I never know what to say during #transdayofvisibility as a nonbinary person who generally is just trying to get on with it, so have a happy trans, have a happy day, and no matter what, don't let your soul get weighed down by everything they do to harm us. We'll make it through this.
I'll nab some better pictures soon, but painting up one of my grail minis turned out to be a blast. Might get another just for the fun of it.
I missed this originally but. You will do something significantly creative this year and that is a threat.
Fun development moment: Sometimes that idea that got brought up eight months ago but got shelved was the right one after all. Just needed the right context.
I can't believe I might be going to Czechia twice within two months next year.
Dont... remind me how close it is...
Need to do some final touch ups and decide if I'm going to do some oil washes to make it look beat up, but all in all not bad for a first attempt at painting something bigger than just a lil' Warhammer dude. #gunpla
I also need to give a huge thank you to @herheim731.bsky.social for the incredible art. They were a joy to work with and it was so nice to have bespoke art for this one!
I know Gaia Gear will never be acknowledged by Sunrise or Bandai for a multitude of reasons, but the should anyhow so I can buy gunpla of the Refined Zorin Soul and the Bromb Texter.
Not me pulling up one of the old fics now.
Okay okay okay okay okay OKAY. But consider the writing is recreational and not game-related. What then?
Got to love putting something off for your game for like, a month and a half, only to get it mostly worked out in an hour.
