It's finally done! I can play video games again!
If you're interested in Interwar Aviation, especially the weird stuff, I recommend my latest video.

Still here! I've just been very busy doing other stuff. The balance of my work/life has become more of a work=life situation for the foreseeable future. At least I get to take some photos every now and then.
Here's my recent effort.
Back at making my actual content soon!

Got something cool to hook up to my camera. Basically, it's an interface that allows my camera lens to see through night vision.
For a few reasons, I can't get it to mount properly, but I can get it to about 75% effectiveness.
I'll have to buy my own soon.

I know this is old news at this point, but I did want to talk about the F-47. I'm a huge fan of the fact that America has finally joined the Canard Club, but I'm uncertain as to why the wings are so dihedral. I don't know what advantage that would have on a 6th gen.

Hell yeah! We take 36 views. It's a bit of a weird topic, so there's no expectation that this video would blow the rest out of the water.
I at least had a lot of fun making it, and I got to make a lot of jokes that I don't get to make with the usual topics.

It's finally out! This was supposed to be a ten minute video, but I decided to add an additional 17 minutes as a bonus.
Let me regal you with the tale of the little jeep that crossed the world!

Like many man-children, I have a top ten list of my favorite fighter jets. The Phantom isn't on it. However, it might be the only figure jet that's able to put this big off a smile on my face whenever I see one. Quite a good-looking silhouette, and certainly one of a kind.

Haven't done an afterburner appreciation post in a while.
This is from EAA 2024. The Viper was hauling ass on a low pass, and I managed to snag this shot of the ground crew.

No video progress tonight, but some upcoming travel forced me to get a laptop so I can keep making content. It's a fantastic computer, but it needed some upgrades.
It's a bit overkill, but it's actually a bit faster than my primary computer after the upgrade!
Also, it did spark at me. A bit spooky

Getting back into voiceover work for some fun on top of the usual YouTube projects. The specific scene for this audition called for the character to sound "distraught." Boy, did I ever have just the thing to get me in that headspace.

Yikes. I really don't think YouTube liked my video. I haven't even said the word "guns" yet.

I'm loving the mug graphic for the side project. If you're into #aviation, specifically during the second world war, stay tuned! I hope to kick off a short form series by the end of this week.
In the meantime, enjoy a peak at the book I'm using for a primary source.

The logo for my other other project is looking good. I might actually get this on a coffee mug.
I've also included a paragraph from the reference book I just obtained. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
If you're interested in world war two aviation, stay tuned!

First draft for the logo I'll be using with the next video. Gotta clean it up a lot more and add the text.
And... finishing the script, natation, and additional art assets.
It's a process. Anyway, video's on a little amphibious jeep known as "HalfSafe".

I just paid way too much money for a book. At least it's a good source for a lot of content I plan on doing in the future.
It's mostly about damage assessments on different aircraft armaments during the second world war. It'll be a treat.

It's super cool that someone decided to copyright claim my video because I used a song that they didn't even have the rights to, nor was it the remix they made.
Gotta love that. Thankfully, YouTube weighed in my favor.
