Chicspec loosing up from the retconned InterStellar OverDrive. One of Flexia's security officers. The closest thing Revellia has to a friend. And when Celandine wants to pretend sherif, he can alternate between deputy or One Eye Jack, the Baddest Bad Man from the Badlands....

My first animatic! Yay, me! I'm doing animated juvenilia at all of 65 years old. This is my vanity plate for future animatics. I'm amused because I feel that it's so stupid that it's funny. It's also a parody of another studio's vanity plate and mascot. Guess which one? :3

Right now I'm wondering how to move animated layers in Krita without knocking the frames out of position. Sometimes I can do it and sometimes I can't. And sometimes it just seems that frames just get randomly knocked out of position.

How do you horizontally flip an animated layer in Krita? Having the layer selected in the side and doing the pulldown menu of Layer > Transform > Mirror Layer Horizontally is not working for me over and over again.

I'm still having endless frustrations with Krita. Getting absolutely no help on this is rubbing my adopted child abandonment trauma the wrong way. It's like screaming in my face, "YOU'RE TOTALLY WORTHLESS AND UNLOVABLE AND DON'T DESERVE ANY HELP!" over and over and over.

Anybody know what the yellow dipping sauce is for imitation crab meat? Is it just runny butter or something?

Is Mrs. Sigafoose (sp?) on the cover of Model Aviation kind of ironic and sad? It's sad that she's gone after a long life and it's sad that Sig Manufacturing is in years long limbo.

I just did the first big (enough) project of the year. I put new hatch supports on the Soob. I even did a little farm boy improvisation by using a hoe with an extra long handle to prop the hatch open while I was doing this.

First drawing of '26. Handling things over to the new year.
I'm also thinking about how much of a bruiser Revellia is contrasted to boney Dizzy.

I'm guessing that some of the original '77 Star Wars was inspired by Boomer kiddies daydreaming that their toy robots and space cars were real.

I come to both praise and bury 1975 and 2025...
Representing 1975 is the rubber duck for my whoopee cushion humor back then with the Feirds and Star Truck which came with a hand-me-down 3D printer representing 2025…..

This gets "better".... Apparently there is a pin frame to timeline function in Krita, but so far I haven't been able to find an icon, pull down menu, or right click or left click.

I'm about ready to scream here! I'm trying to do my first ever animatic in Krita. I have two background layers, six layers for the O to get squished, and eleven layers of Sam the Fan, and I can't get any of them to connect up to the timeline. Please help!

I worry about Model Rocketry is probably in decline. It hasn't had the Moon Race to prop it up for decades. Kits in hobby stores are getting skimpier. I think that it's going to take a huge hit when Boomers nostalgic for the Space Race and Xers nostalgic for the Space Shuttle die off.

Good news: I drove on the Interstate for the first time with my new eyes.
Bad news: Hobbyplex was a bit of a letdown.

Does anybody have any head canon or fanon on if Captain Cavemen is somehow related to the Boulder Brothers from Wacky Races?

I'm tellin' ya sonny, Hobby Lobby done was better when they had a big peg board of rockets with Estes and Quest and Custom!
Even that cheesy foam stuff. Whatever happened to those guys?...

I'm working a finishing up a half-built Astro-Blaster that was given to me. Whoever started this project must have felt overwhelmed enough that he threw a bunch of tools in the box and walked away. These were a hobby knife, off-brand razor saw, hinge knife, and sanding block.
