Been a minute since I’ve done something not Avatar-related, but I’m lending my assistance to a first-of-its-kind Dune: Awakening event this Saturday at 9:00pm EST.

Race across the sands in a Sandbike race to the finish! More details on discord.gg/dune-eurasia

Couldn’t stop myself once I started. Stayed up way too late for this. Here’s The Gap Year cover, with the text removed.

Happy Friday, AvatarSky

Thanks! It’s a custom Loth Wolf inspired one :)

Full Red Rising 3D cover print set photo, before I ship these off to a buyer tomorrow!

I really enjoyed the process of painting these and they turned out so much better than expected. I hope they find a place of honor in their new home!

I’m not beating the “rabid The 1975 stan” allegations this year either, I guess.

Your patience is (hopefully) rewarded!

Painting complete on my Golden Son wall hanging. It turned out amazing, I couldn’t be happier!

PS: The files for this project are available on my Etsy, link in bio 💙

Alright, I’m painting!

Coat of black acrylic as the base. Tonight I will add the color to the main piece, and the white to the lettering.

Check back in tomorrow to hopefully see the finished product! #RedRising

Tiny little (3h) Blender project. Designed 3-dimensional wall hanging models for the three original Red Rising books. They even have nail slots in the back for mounting/hanging.

These can be 3D printed, painted and hung or displayed like miniature posters.

Printed an M6H pistol from #Halo5 as a test print in the middle of another project.

This thing is surprisingly massive on Spartan scale. It’s an actual hand cannon.

Will make a good display piece next to my Halo books!

Fun fact: While I’ve never read it (yet), I designed a physical mask based on Ares’ Octobernacht mask for a client using that cover.

Shoutout to Pokémon TCG Pocket for keeping me suitably distracted during these trying times. A few of my favorite pulls so far:

I’ve never voted before, but today, I voted for her.

I voted so that she will grow up in an America that values her as an equal and not (just) a mother. That she will have the right to her own god-given autonomy, and will be free to take the paths and opportunities ahead of her. #VoteBlue

Happy Halloween 🎃 Feeling good about my progress, still a way to go yet! #Mandalorian

Legacy plates are a layered style as opposed to the flat styles like Mando or Boba/Jango. My armor also uses Legacy style.

Tried wet sanding my plates for the first time last night, and it was kind of a game changer.

The Deep Space hunter is my most recent approved design. This brutalist concept is for the hunter who walks the void between the stars with prejudice, and is approved for use in the #MMCC #Crusader era.

The High Arbiter is my most popular design. This striking helmet is meant to evoke a more civilized era, and is approved for use in the #MMCC #Crusader era.
October 28, 2024 at 12:23 AM
Hey Mandos, I just updated my MMCC approved #Mandalorian helmet listings to have a turntable video!

You can find my public designs at etsy.com/shop/makosme..., and you can find the two turntables below 👇🏼

Absolute beauty. My left Mandalorian gauntlet is finished and ready for sanding/painting.

(Been told by my Ruus that this might not pass apps, so I’ve put in a request for approval early with the apps team, but worst case scenario I’ve got a set of gauntlets for the ren faire next fall.)
