I have just had a burst of creative energy this weekend. Can't wait to build my laser cutter.
Here’s a #frenchbulldog in a space helmet — ATOM; the little dog with big energy!
I absolutely love the #atompunk style and need do more.

Tonight I am mocking up products as I shift from building to design + build my laser cutter.
Here’s my robin in a space helmet — laser-engraved placemat concept 🐦🪐
100% #opensource workflow: #Linux + #Krita.
Superhero vibes + #atompunk. 😅

So it's #caturday . my partner is loving playing "Stray" at the moment. It's a fantastic cat-simulator/retro-noir-horror game.

I absolutely love Krita. As open source programs go, this is one of the best. Would more people like to learn about a 100% free workflow for makers and other creatives? #linux #krita #art

Hi people of South Hams. Here's a line drawing/photomontage I made digitaly.

It's of Totnes's famous clock tower.

I'm getting closer to my goal of running my own laser cutter and this is a concept art image of what the slate placemats could look like.

Its made using 100% opensource software.

All that i am thinking is, someone will say to the FBI; "and I swear that I don't have a gun"

Come as you are was a brilliant tune!

This month is #pride month. despite what the supreme court would have u think.

here is a fun #linux command where you can show your support. "hyfetch" shows your fave distro logo decorated in a pride flag of your choice. plus when you first configure it in June, you get an Easter egg surprise.

I just found out I can check the weather using "curl" in my linux terminal. "curl wttr.in/UK".
you can then pipe that into an application called "lolcat". like so; "curl wttr.in/UK | lolcat"

I just added this to my bash script of commands i use regularly.

I just completed another module in my LFS101 linux course with a score of 100%. Please add a share option for bsky @linuxfoundation.org

When your learning Linux and find a command that agrees that "Nothing Appropriate" comes from trump. 😂

"man -f" helps you identify commands. This is just a funny use of an error message.

I passed another module on my LFS101 course at the @linuxfoundation.org . I only wish they had a button to post my achievement on here.
January 23, 2025 at 12:25 AM
@linuxfoundation.org ; please can you add the ability to share to bsky in your training portal.

In the uk this isn't happening, but...
...we do have the right to protest.

This is a fun project I worked on last year. It's a building local to me that needs renovation. #archviz #blender #3ddesign I did this for a local #community group.

Love and support real #designers not AI. ...please

This is a #blender #b3d #render I made. it's an #interiordesign of an #office / #gaming room . I made the #officechair and many props myself. aside from the tower keyboard/mouse. it was rendered using #cycles
Love #art respect real #design.

#blender 's #geometrynodes are super fun. I managed to alter my phyllotaxis pattern node setup to allow me to scale the shapes from the centre. Really useful for a #lasercut ing tool or #CNC. What should I change the shapes that make up the pattern to? Coffee Beans, Cars Phalluses etc..
January 10, 2025 at 1:10 AM
This is a render i made in #blender . it uses #math derived from #phyllotaxis to create a cool trippy #illustration . #drawing in #b3d rocks. I might use this for laser etching..
What would you change the randomly positioned shapes that make up this image to? I'm thinking letters. #calligraphy

Not strong enough.. ..I was wrong. I can't believe how well this came out. My #homebuilt #cncrouter can cut stone (Slate). Made with #opensource software like #blender, #inkscape and #linuxcnc. then cut with #carbide
Img. from my #coffee wall hanging. Once I find a good material I'll post that too.

This is my homebuilt #cncrouter. I call it Galactus.
I remember hours of work went into the metal plates hand finishing them. The #cnc uses #linux and runs #linuxcnc . Most of my #gcode is made in #blender using FabexCNC (formerly BlenderCAM).

This is the largest #3dprint I have ever done. Its only a 1/4 done.

I'm thinking about the #turnerprize today. The winning artist wasn't the first person to put lace on top of a #car. I did this years ago. Similarly I was trying to evoke old fashioned memories by doing this!

This multifunction piece of furniture was made on my homebuilt CNC router and finished by hand. Using my own composite material.

I use an entirely #opensource workflow. I am a proud specialist #blender user.
