Was going through old bins and found this ancient relic from the old internet. Anyone remember ThinkGeek? I have no idea what to do with this. 😂
Typically indecisive on most of these. All depends on specifics. Currently more introverted, would usually consider myself more middle of the road. Currently also hate my apartment.
This fits. (Lucille is one half of my spooky lesbian couple who I’ve made tall and skinny and decided are models).
Package received from @uesp.net today - received the UESP’s Adventuring Guide to Tamriel and Lands Beyond, 30th anniversary coin, bookmark, and the mentioned set of 4 travel-style location posters (The Ashpit, Moonshadow, Pyandonea, and Thras) by @skeletalk.bsky.social . Great stuff, thank you!
There are bigger problems in the world, but one of mine currently (that I’m comfortable posting about) is that this sale got me hooked on this milk tea but it’ll be off sale by midweek and I’m not paying five dollars for it. So I’m sad. 😂
Date yourself with a snap of your first ever computer. Technically not mine, but was used by me. Very unusual to have one of these at home where I grew up, but parents were teachers (though we never had that joystick…)
Show me a picture (of yourself) that captures your essence I dunno about “capturing my essence” but I like this one. I’m still that weirdo in bug necklaces somewhere. (Also those were my favourite glasses, I think.)
You know, I thought I’d have a bigger mental reaction than “okay, good” considering I’ve been worried about this. But I’ve just discovered I have an assignment for something else that’s six days late that the app never showed me and I can’t do it right now, so 😂 Still good though.
This is the average I’m carrying, currently. But the final is worth something like 35% and I felt shaky on some of the questions I ended up with.
I’ve been fairly spoiled by early morning shifts lately where I’m out and gone before open. Given my mood as of late I’m really not looking forward to this shift.
This guy was such a pain in the ass to sculpt but I think it’s going to look pretty good in the end.
Ugh they look so cute together. I want to keep the Ankylo but I made him for my husband - nbd, I’m making myself a Borealopelta. Might keep it brown, I’m thinking of blacks/greys, though. Or greens. (Also totally need another one of these cute shelves just for my Kuromi collection. Very fitting.)
Looking after a house and cat-sitting this little sweetheart for a week. ❤️
Sealed and fully painted. Added more white to the spikes for a greater contrast, added more dark brown spots and followed that up with a few washes to darken the colour underneath the spikes on the sides, then did a couple washes of the tan to even it all out.
Bought a new shelf for the random little bits and bobs floating around.
Requested by my kid, who wanted me to make a gift she can give to a friend who is moving away tomorrow. The friend loves sharks, Hammerheads in particular. Kiddo chose the pose and she wanted it flat - the bottom looks a bit like a baked cookie, but I think his mouth is my favourite part. :)
Finished this guy, more or less. Needs another round of paint to touch it up (glad I took pictures before sealing or else I would have missed that dark brown streak on one of the horns). It’s a mix of matte paint and “satin”, but once the sealant is on it’ll have a more uniform shine to it. 🙂
Ready for painting. I suppose I could smooth things out a bit more, but eh. It’ll be fiiiiiiine.
The utter cheek. LET ME EAT MY TATER TOTS IN PEACE. 😂 Ended up breaking the last 3 into bits and tossing them out of the window in the end. As soon as I did the lot was FULL of these guys. All I saw was the one, no idea where the rest came from.
Posting this now just in case it falls over and gets fuxxored while I take a nap.
Awhile back there was a story about someone on Tiktok who bought a croissant lamp from a website. All was fine for awhile but then ants started showing up and they were attracted to the lamp. Thus they found out their lamp was real pastry covered in resin. Anyone hungry?
