Working on squishy gross. 🤔 Could be squishier with fingers and oozing I think. Not really my strong suit!

There is nothing new under the sun if you shade your eyes from the brilliance and sparkle of salesmanship. Thankfully, there are modern approaches, however, that keep us entertained.

A colorful diddy this time! Do you find the watercolor coloring something I should continue? 😀

What I didn't do was clean it up in GIMP or CSP - maybe I should have....

Don't worry, there's a Far Side comic for just about everything.

A Republican complaint from the House about Federal Judges violating a Judicial Code of Ethics sparked my curiosity about whether something similar were being ignored the third branch of government.
Hypocrisy is the norm for decades but it's such a maddening pitch recently.

Fun. Needs work, but there's color. 🎨🖌

Next!!! 📣

Most Trek books ignore the tone and feel of the source. This grabs it. It's aggressive and intense immediately like Act III of an episode but I'm happy to recall the TOS chemistry and hear their voices in my imagination. Great peril. Very good art.

Plunging in. Wrong paper and no real plan 🤠
Let's ride.

As pretty as wine vineyards. Remarkably charismatic villages built around vinegar production, Verona, Italy. It was odd and refreshing there. I avoided almost all the tourist spots and enjoyed myself greatly.
It inspired a near-Shadowrun story that still percolates :)

Maybe I'm old fashioned but it's hard for me to believe that this was such a problem a sign had to be made about it.

Proof that I can model, but could never model cars. 🫤
So why bother 😁
Needs some details but what a stunner lighting and material make!

I'm reminding myself how lovely it is to draw with this very black pen!

Distracting myself with some quick modeling. A cashier's station at scale in Blender to begin assembling assets for another project I probably won't finish in this lifetime.

When a computer simulates a five-alarm fire, no one runs outside to see if a building is burning.

Yet... when a computer simulates a dialogue, people lose their poo and say the end is coming or worship it.

Simulations aren't real. Lighten up.

The Italian Job comes to Germany at an "old timer" car show 😄
Goodness, they're itty bitty.

Decals at a bookstore, post-redesign. Really? No one could have stopped The Stupid here? Was I not supposed to look? Do I need to go in with a Sharpie? #Thalia #Buch #Book #Store #Fail 😧

What's the longest you've waited for a Kickstarter reward? I've got several as far as Oct 2024 - I don't want to pledge more until I'm "caught up" and that stops me from supporting artists and writers 🙁
(I cropped the Pledge Amount column - let's just say I support the arts happily)

Couldn't have said it any better myself, nature. Shot these two days ago. Wind and rain have changed everything completely.

So fleeting.

I'm back in the united states for a week soon to return to germany. I plan to eat the grocery store out of their jimmy dean breakfast sausage supply. Is that okay with everyone?

Germany has ten thousand wursts, but zip for breakfast sausage. A shame.

This guy was good - the one with the darker hair. Also an American in Germany (Berlin) but came to Dresden with his comedy. Friendly lad for sure! @nyamean.bsky.social (seems to be more of an IG guy)

I'd like to simplify an alien jungle. Can anyone point me in a direction toward examples? 😅
