Tiny portfolio drop as a hello for all friends, old and new!

Hi, I’m Sky. I’m a miniaturist exploring digital landscapes via hand-cut dioramas primarily made from paper! Hellyeah!

McMillen makes a game called “Mewgenics” then decides to go full on Ken Bone in the year of our lord 2026. Incredible.

communicating with my IRL friends goes like this
receive a text from a bud
lol, sigh
"I owe them more than a lame text, I should call them"
Kids begin to scream
Next morning -- "oh shit he's probably at work. I'll call him later when he's probably at work"
Next morning -- "oh shit...!"
repeat

I'm no computer wizard and I dont have any other way to describe this sensation right now but requiring every iPad update to use about 25% of your total storage feels cruel

Hahaha yup. I played about three hours of Hellpoint and yeah. It does a whole lot of stuff I like but it’s lower tier for sure.

Title of Video: The Element Missing From Dark Souls
Text in Thumbnail Super Duper Large next to a red arrow pointing to a sad Seigmeyer:

"Haunted"
#IceOut #IceOutComics
A comic in black/white/blue. Lucy rolls her bike through an alley, by a crew building a fence. Narration: My neighbors hired a crew to rebuild their fence. Crew member: "Do you need us to move our stuff out of the way?" Lucy: "Oh! No, you're all good, thanks!" Lucy: "Have a good one!" Crew member: "You, too!" Narration: I was teaching when my phone started lighting up with alerts from the rapid response network and neighbor chat. Lucy's back is to us as she shows a group of enthusiastic children something on a notebook. Behind her, her phone in her bag is buzzing. Narration: By the time the lesson was over, they were already gone. Lucy is reading messages on her phone. Messages: Alert: black SUV Sighting: be on alert for... Confirmed abductionL alley between ----- and ----. SUV plates... We tried to get them inside, but it was too... ...Contacting an I.R. lawyer. Heading to Broadview later today. Lucy is riding her bike home. Narration: On the ride home, I kept thinking "If I'd been there, could I have warned them? Would my ICIRR* training have helped?" *Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights. Get trained and know your rights at ICIRR.org. Narration: I'd taken the training after Halloween, when the violent ICE raids had locked down our schools and driven our neighbors indoors. (Image of a halloween bucket in the shape of a jack-o-lantern) Narration: Halloween is fun here-- The community filling the streets and opening our doors to one another. But this year's was tense, frightened and subdued. Haunted. Lucy is standing in the alley, staring at the newly built fence. Narration: When I got home, it was all done. The other two guys who had gotten inside in time stayed and finished the build. The new fence is superimposed with the brief exchange from earlier in the comic ("Have a good one" You, too") Narration: I see it every day and think about how those guys built this in the spot where strangers in masks took their friend. Narration: How many other places in our communities are similarly haunted? (Drawings of sidewalks, buildings, streets and windows)
