The face of a boy who wants belly rubs…

And breakfast (even though he decided to in)

I love our dog so much. He’s so cute!

I was a pilot demon from #KPopDemonHunters for Halloween and so many kids and parents recognized me. It was very fun! One dad even wanted a picture with me!

Cute sleepy baby

I love the Lantern Parade. One of the best festivities of the year in Patterson Park!
I’m always so glad to attend with @mustachebabs.com - I think we’ve pretty much made it to every one since moving here.

Here’s what the updates print looks like in action!

We’ve got the table (518) for @mustachebabs.com all set up at Baltimore Comic Con
Close up of the new sign holder attached to a middle shelf. The small display shelf is made of a light wood and the sign holder is a grey resin. There is a stick and sign coming from the holder. There are books on each shelf A shot of a three tiered wooden display shelf on a table. The shelf is full of books by Barbara Perez Marquez, from top: Epistle, Paulina and the Disaster at Pompeii, and Animal Rescue Friends: Learning New Tricks. On each level there is a sign indicating price held by the 3D printed sign holder

I forgot to take into account the depth of the stacked shelves though, so upon printing, we realized the design would need to be updated. I've updated the 3D file, and will be putting out a new print today (hopefully). Although I probably won't bother with the text for this run.

[5/X]
A screenshot from Blender of the updated sign holder. This version isn't as wide and the back of it isn't as long to account for the shorter depth of the shelves. There is no text on the the model.

Here's a picture of us testing IRL. I got the angles right for the main slot, and the stick seats well too! Overall, pretty happy with it, just wish I'd realized about material amounts while it was printing.

A photo of the 3D printed sign holder attached to the last back on the display shelf in the foreground. There is a sign stuck in the holder for the graphic novel "Paulina and the Disaster at Pompeii" The sign holder is a fraction of the size of the 3D model, and the left side of all text has been cut off due to printing errors.

I knew I wanted to make something that slotted over the backs of the shelves, and it had to be universal enough considering there were slight differences between the shelf types she uses.

I started mocking up a design in Blender with the intention to print it out in resin.

[2/X]
A screen shot from Blender of a 3D model of the sign holder. The holder is more tall than wide with a slot for attaching to the back of a small shelf and a secondary slot for holding a tongue depressor stick. There is a representation of the sign and stick in the holder to show use case. There is text on the holder too. On the top it reads "@mustachebabs" and on the front it says "Oops! Looks like we need another book!"

I finished my digital painting of my TTRPG character, Khenu. I’m really pleased with how it came out! It was really fun working in a softer style and messing around with different brushes in Procreate.
A young tiefling lays half naked on a bed. Their chest tattoo is visible and they have some magical frostbite on the tips of the fingers of one hand. Their other hand is wearing a leather fingerless glove with a slightly glowing crystal attached to the back. They are gently touching a waterlogged family portrait.

We went blueberry picking and alpaca petting today. It was hot as fuck out, but a good time was had regardless.
Unripened blueberries on the stem. They range from a pale green and pink to light blue. Bri in between blueberry bushes turning towards the camera and sticking their tongue out. They’re wearing a hat and glasses and carrying a water bottle A young goat, from the alpaca farm, chomping on some tree leaves from a branch laying on the ground.

Here’s an updated WIP for this piece! I’ve still got the hands and some jewelry left to do, and maybe some minor touches. I’m really liking the soft shadows I’ve done and the blending, but I might paint a second version that feels more graphic
A close up of Khenu, my D&D character. They’re half tiefling and half elf so they have tiny horns and pointed ears. Their skin is a coppery orange and they have dark hair. They have a light blue and desaturated tattoo across their upper torso and a few scars scattered across their arms. Their pose is reclined and partially curled up on a bed.

Our native hibiscus - the swamp rose mallow - bloomed this morning! I’m so glad to catch it (we’ve been out of town the last couple of years) and with so many blooms too!
A large white flower that has five petals that turn a deep magenta towards the center. The white stamen and pistil sticks out from the ring of red. An off white bud is in the background and both the bud and bloom are surrounded by bright green leaves.

Sneak peek of a WIP of my ttrpg character Khenu who has only ever really known life as an orphan. Yesterday, their patron brought them to their childhood home - which they only partially remember from their dreams. They found a water-damaged family portrait and their baby blanket.

We (@mustachebabs.com and I) made it AND got jerseys this year. Happy Pride from OPACY! #Baltimore
Bri and Babs, both in glasses and white and black hats with O’s on the front in pride flag colors. They both wear the black jerseys for this year and the edge of Bri’s sleeve is visible on the left - there are several thin rainbow stripes. They’re sitting in front of lots of green bleacher seats.

Still trying to work on Blender modifications to a specific mini, but the ones I wasn’t modifying have been printed! First official run after a calibration print!

And look at these cute ginger wine buds and flowers!
A leafy plant. The leaves are a reddish-orange. The buds are mostly pink with sports of white and the flowers are tiny and white with yellow centers

Here are some before pics
A wet and dirty patio with the pressure washer and a deck box in the foreground. Plants and chairs and hoses are in the background. The concrete is a mix of brown, dark gray, and mossy green Patio table and chair with a dirty concrete wall behind. The wall has dark streaks starting at the top. The patio floor is also dirty Corner of the patio with the table and chairs in the foreground and potted plants in the back. Everything is covered in grime

Today has been mostly power washing the patio for the season

Also, this made me laugh when I found it trying to find a good image from the movie
Same still as above of Angela Lansbury riding a broom decked out in WW1 military gear, but text around it reads, “This is Eglantine Price. Eglantine Price learned witchcraft to fight Nazis. Be like Eglantine. Hex the Fascists.”

It was also nice to see some Nazis get wrecked by Angela Lansbury.

@mustachebabs.com and I enjoyed a delicious breakfast at Ugly Duckling in Portland, ME this morning before her event at NOVEL this afternoon.
Barbara is sitting across from me in a cafe wearing glasses and a black tank top and smiling. We are clinking white handle-less mugs full of fancy lattes.

If it’s anything like when I’ve eaten a high protein breakfast and drank 2 cups of coffee before a dose, then…

Valentine’s Dayte with @mustachebabs.com to the Walters. We didn’t speed rush the whole museum this time, but took our time on a single floor. Y’all, she held my hand - I think we’re official!
Bri is in the foreground in a green shirt, Babs is in the background in black. They’re both wearing masks but smiling with their eyes in front of a window of the museum An illuminated page of an angel created with toxic paints An Ethiopian painting of some saint giving deuces to the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus An Ethiopian painting of a saint or Jesus with a white flag.

Also this is partly why I was in pain this morning. Holding this position for a week really takes it out of you. 🫠
