We got our community pantry up and running, and our neighbors immediately stocked it. I'm feeling very good about today.

I'll get some food studio photos later, but I have made an art. This is the first proper art that I have finished in a long time. I like it.

I picked up a book from one of my favorite designers, and it's a perfect example of why the web content accessibility guidelines benefit everyone. The small font size and terrible contrast mean that even neurotypical people will strain their eyes reading this. Accessibility benefits everyone.

I still haven't been able to make myself paint every day, but I am sketching. Gochilla lives!

I'm taking on my first commission work in ages and I get to paint this chonky boy for Zeo Genesis from Best Hobby Games. Inspired by their webcomic, I'm going to go with desert colors and weathering. Of course that means I need to get some of my own work off of my workbench.

I am repainting this "Happy Monk" model for a friend after the original was knocked off a shelf during a party. It now has a wall mountable shadow box to help prevent future accidents.

A conversation about exercise, in pictures.

Also, that was probably the most fun I've ever had adding alt text.

Progress on my cybernetic left arm prop - now with a hand! I still need to add wires to the shirt where the elbow is exposed, but I'm really happy with it at this point.

The arm turned out great this time, and I got the hand painted and dry fit tested, so it's almost time for assembly. I need to add some additional details to the underside of the hand, and puff paint wires, and then it's assembly time!

It turns out that the new lighting we installed in our living room allows me to work on projects while I keep my wife company, and so I got all of the masking finished today. The forearm has now been sprayed black again, to touch up and seal any gaps, and then it's time for the chrome. Meep!

The upper portion of my cybernetic arm prop turned out great this time - with very flat black panels contrasting with super shiny chrome labels. A tribute to the original lightsabers.

Trust the process. The repainted pieces look so much better.

I thought this one was ready to go, but it looks like the final gloss coat had issues curing on the emitter, so I'll fix that.

There are six trophy lightsabers for this costume, and the cure time on this silver paint is definitely testing my patience. Having to set a project down for 24 hours? Oof

The paint is a huge improvement over the original.

The silver metallic spray paint I'm using needs a full 24 hours to cure enough to touch, which has turned repainting lightsabers for my costume into a real test of my patience. The finished result is worth the wait though - check out the original plastic silver below.

Today's creative project - updates to my Sith assassin costume. I still need to sort out how to display the crystals in the belt, and I have a cybernetic left arm to add, but I now have six trophy lightsabers in addition to his actual weapon.

My First Order officers costume has arrived. The new uniforms don't use the rank pins, but I have them so I'm going to display them anyway :)
