Be honest. Why do you dislike the .webp format? What did it do to you? 🤔

Hot take - Ralph McQuarrie's Stormtrooper helmets were the coolest.

Just for fun, here are the Federation starfighters on the left and Votainion starfighters on the right. All in 1/32 scale. Two of the Vot fighters are unfinished. They are waiting on paint.

After the first wash it starts to look more realistic. I used acrylic dark green and black with thinner.

How big is a 1/350 scale starship? I use a tiny human facsimile for scale.

Most annoying part of Masters of the Air so far for me is the use of "roger, wilco". This is never used. Roger means "I understand" and wilco means "I understand and I will comply". Did they even have a technical advisor?

I tell you this right now, I always forget why having Plasma and Gnome on the same install is a bad idea. Now I remember. lol. Gotta go fix this if I'm going to stick with Gnome.

It’s hard to believe that there are still people out there arguing that Biden was not legitimately elected, despite all the evidence that he was and no supporting evidence anywhere of any widespread electoral fraud. But let’s not pretend this ended in 2020. In 2024, Trump will claim fraud once more because he simply can’t stand the idea that he might have lost because more than half the voters don’t ever want him back in the White House. We need to prepare for his lies and how his MAGA base might rally to yet another false cause.

Tarter sauce on fries?

No.

The first pass is with black pastel. Then maybe some strategic brown.

It's white now. Tomorrow, one of my favorite steps - weathering.

I’ve averaged photon counts of a rectangular projection of space things through multiple lenses and different pieces of colored glass and when I removed point-sources of light this is what happened #astrophotography

I just did a nod to Asimov in my current WIP. I have a character whose last name is Starr and another character always calls him Lucky. A tip of the hat to the Master.

The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now in this very room.
