Well, beyond "bronze skin", "emerald eyes", "wild shock of unmanageable copper hair", and "36-22-36", here's a few concept sketches:

Uh-oh, TikTok's been shut down, time for another Bluesky user count!

Well, well, well.

Speaking of David Crane, I got the Dragster and Pitfall designer's latest #Atari2600 game for my #Atari7800+ in the mail yesterday. Unlike Casey's Gold, I've been having some trouble figuring this one out.

My newest #Atari7800 and #Atar2600 cartridges for my #Atari7800+ have started coming in.

Yesterday: Bounty Bob Strikes Back and Caverns Of Mars

Today: Ninja Golf (one game I didn't get in the original 7800's dying days)

This is what I got when I went there hoping to block. Either it got suspended or is on one of my blocklists.

I can explain my absence yesterday. I got so obsessed with not just my new #Atari7800+ but the #a7800 emulator, it interrupted my sleep patterns. As a result the place where I put my Atari, a repurposed big-CRT-TV stand, now looks like this.

That's the version I had until I found the Four Walls Eight Windows edition with the Gibson introduction. I was extremely pleased to find the prologue and epilogue renamed to "Intro" and "Outro". I don't know how many times I've read it since.

There's some new games out for the #Atari7800+. I ordered two: Bounty Bob Strikes Back for the 7800 and Caverns Of Mars for the 2600. I didn't order Asteroids Deluxe. However, I have had this since 1988, so I'm not lacking an Asteroids port.

#Unboxing time!

I got an new Atari 7800+ for Christmas. Thanks mom & bro!

I found a good place to put it above the TV. Also shown: some of my favorite 2600 and 7800 games, all of which the 7800+ can play (somehow Turmoil seems to have gone missing).

So what did I get from Pierre (an ex-friend's late French Canadian father)? How about... Les Compagnons De La Chanson Chantent Noël?

And there it is. 25 million.

Also, I'm over 300 users. Still procrastinating my #promosky and #booksky intro posts of course, but I'll get to them eventually...

I subscribed to the same list. He may be on at least one of the other blocklists I subscribe to as well.
