What if Hexen was a girl? 💁🏻♀️ An on-and-off project of mine for the past few years, and focused on to release it [almost] in time for Hexen's 30th anniversary: and now complete! I redesigned and redrew the playable characters, and weapons that have visible hands.

I've been working on my Hexen female character project to get it done in time for the game's 30th anniversary on October 30. [checks calendar] Anyhow, I've been redrawing the weapons where you can see your character's hands, so they have women's hands instead. 💁🏻♀️ Finally done with this part, for now.

Unfortunately, I know which server you're talking about. Fortunately, whatever kollective power they get by congregating there also makes it easy to block that server en-masse; and my feed got a little less dumb after doing so.

Mastodon's been fine from what I've experienced of it thus far. (Not crawling with Leftist types nearly as much as Bluesky.) The trouble is choosing 'which' Mastodon. 💁🏻♀️ The closest to a default is mastodon.social, which I went with; there's good arguments to use different ones, but… which?

A @deck.blue tip I found by accident: If you're a zillion sub-pages deep in a column, you can click-and-hold on the ← button (for a second or so) to return to the top without having to click it a zillion-minus-one times.

I'm old enough to remember when people (and sites) cared enough to get these sorts of things right.

Well, we may have American fascism in place under Trump, but the important part is the people of Gaza. 💁🏻♀️

The numbers show you are wrong. If Harris didn't lose a single Biden vote, she still would have lost every swing state. You can compare Biden 2020 to Trump 2024 yourself, as I did here.
Leftists don't want to admit fascism is popular: they'd rather hate Democrats. Same result either way though.

My main effort in wplace lately has been helping erase this big AI-generated pinup piece, which has become a sort of shrine against AI.
More human effort has been put into erasing this AI art than it took to make it; and more human connections made along the way.

I was wondering about that; for a fair coin, 29 times in a row is a 1-in-half-a-billion chance.
Even so, 29 tails in a row with that coin is roughly equivalent to getting 12 in a row with a fair coin; a 1-in-4200 chance. (Almost exactly, incidentally. 💁🏻♀️)

For such an old game, Morrowind holds up surprisingly well at times. (Other than character models.) I never played it in its own time, but I imagine I would have loved it. (My first TES was Skyrim.) This is a source port (OpenMW) but with no new assets.
Here near Gnaar Mok, looking out toward Aleft.

If only I could make a career out of collecting and hoarding supplies like I tend to do in Hideous Destructor (a realism-themed mod of Classic Doom). 💁🏻♀️ Almost feels bad to move on to the next level and have to leave a lot of it behind, being only able to carry so much.

They really broke the mold when they made her! Because they've used the mold too much and it can only sustain so much wear and tear before needing to be replaced. (The male equivalent is a guy taking a selfie in a pickup truck while wearing sunglasses.)

And for that matter, she'd only "owe us" anything if she had won the election. And Leftists/Republicans told her to fuck off, so she did. 🤷🏻♀️
(I'd go Like his post directly too, but… 💁🏻♀️ Either a stopped clock is right once a day, or it's the wrong clock?)

And looking up the etymology of the word, it even has peaceful connotations; not being broken and surrendering after violent defeat, but to go along with, give way to. And is etymologically related to the very word for "peace". Not that MAGA cares about any of that, of course; but we can.

Do this look like a glove? 😕 It's the sprites for one of the Mage's spells; in my version, she's Black and I've been drawing her hands accordingly. It's a talent I've yet to master but I think I'm doing alright so far. But someone I've shown this too thinks it's a glove. It's dark skin, not leather!

Anyhow, been trying my hand at doing other first-person weapon/attack animations, this time for my version of the Mage, using her lightning attack. More varied hand poses in this one rather than just "grasping a weapon tightly". Still WIP but there's some magic to it already. ⚡

I've always liked Cascadia Code ever since I came across it. (Not just for the name!) Attractive but readable.
Though one thing that bugs me about a lot of monospace fonts is adding crap to the digit 0: easier to distinguish from O but harder to distinguish from 8, which is much more relevant.

2½ hours ago I hadn't made any progress on this, and now… 💁🏻♀️
Turns out I can be fairly productive when I want to be! I just don't usually want to be. But with Hexen's anniversary deadline coming up, I'll try/need to focus more on this. Still WIP obviously, but this was just a sketch this morning. 💅🏻

I've been playing ESO for nearly 9 years now, it's pretty played out, and I dunno why I even keep it installed. Well, whatever, kinda bored, I'll go run a dungeon or something.
Half an hour later…

While going through those, that last one in particular, her profile picture pinged my AI-dar so I looked more closely, and the more I looked the more oddities I saw. That's either AI or a dodgy editing job; or both. 🤔

Meanwhile, been continuing my female sprite project for #Hexen (and Heretic): working on weapons that have visible hands. Rather than just editing them, I'm designing the whole sprites anew. I'm out of my element here compared to figure drawing, but I like how this sketch is coming along. 🪓
