Decals for a model rocket boost glider. It's a canard boost glider with an in-jokey name. Being a Generation Jones child of the '60s-'70s sort of shows through in this, especially the Pony Car era and how it was even sold to us kids who weren't old enough to drive...

Revised Fugly Bugly and Gammie decal sheet.

Working up sketches for a decal mascot for a boost glider named the Odd Duck. It's called that because it's not like my other A3-A10 sized gliders that I've designed. This is also a bit of a nostalgic throwback to my Timber Ridge magazine days. Too bad that didn't work out.

"Old Cyclops" is now signed up for Social Security and Medicare A and B.

The finished version of the "Fugly Bugly" and the decal set for the Gammie. It's probably the ugliest thing that I ever drew. And it's so ludicrously ugly that I'm cracking myself up.

Update: Fugly Bugly is fugly... And getting fuglier with each "inked" detail... And it's hilarious....

(Work in progress....)

Work in Progress: a mascot for a decal for a boost glider. Radiation worker in-joke: a gammie is like a zoomie but bigger, slower, less vicious, and possibly dumber....

Yay! I found my birth vertificate!

Also the manual for an old color laser printer that has since let out the magic blue smoke and gave up the ghost…

La Vista hobby shop no longer carries balsa but they also now don't have A10-3t engines. I wish that John Carroll hadn't gone away and is never coming back. He was a practical enough man to follow trends as they got more weeaboo toyetic, but I don't think that he would have let other things suffer.

1/2 I bought a blank stainless school type lunchbox. I'm going to work up some decals during the stir crazy winter to make up an InterStellar OverDrive lunchbox just to see what it would look like. Sort of a daydream out loud over that commercial break that I never could quite catch.

1/3 I wonder how many alpha bitches of both genders would be soooo proud of themselves if they found out that they were picking on an AuDHD case with adopted child rejection trauma?

Looky! It's got a "turbo"! :3

My retro Centuri Swift clone with NASA decals to go with the retro Flat Cat clone with USAF decals. I just could not get this thing to transition and glide. It just wants to dive.

I was driving up I-29 having an imaginary conversation with Grandpa Skow and came up with this bit of mock philosophy. Then there was me tripping over these forgotten archeological artifacts from a previous life with the case so yellowed with age that it's scary.

1/ My 65th birthday is three months away and I’m having a horrible time signing up for Social Security payments yesterday. I tried to get my W2 from LiteBlue but my Pauli effect with passwords bit me and my password recovery is going to be sent my mail, probably weeks from now.

Work in progress: base color on Celandine at 18.
September 3, 2025 at 11:52 PM
Celandine at 18. The joys and having two attractive athletic parents with the quirky bonus of getting all those muscles from mama....

I'm back working on this trying to finish up the inks. I redid the hair and arms tonight. Is there anything anybody would fix before I start coloring it?

I was thinking about an old Mac program from the monochrome toaster days called "GliderDesign". It could let you create what it calls high lift gliders that could lift twice their own weight. I just weighed the Tabbico boost glider. It's 27grams bare and 54grams with two Astro-Cams screwed to it. :3

The Caliby on a C11-3. It was stalling slightly because the CG was a little too far back.
