Last night I got to surprise my community with a fantastic and rather fun bird themed AH-64 Apache livery made by L33Tanator for myself and my CPG @NeneExists - thank you! It’s very much inspired by the JSDF Apache liveries and it turned out beautifully. I took […] [Original post on hachyderm.io]

Close up screenshot from DCS of an Apache AH-64 attack helicopter with a custom bird themed livery. The side panel includes both my bird self and Nene, a blue dragon on a striped red and black background. Feathers run alongside the aircraft and a hint of feathered wings can be seen on the armament wings.

Screenshot from DCS, F-15E Mudhen in grey livery touching down on a runway. The main gear is on the ground while the nose wheel is still up. The aircraft is heavily damaged and missing a nose cone from an earlier mid-air collision with a friendly Tomcat while both were shooting down an enemy fighter.

Screenshot from DCS, an even more heavily damaged C-130 Hercules cargo aircraft missing both wings and the rear vertical stabilizers. Holes pepper the whole aircraft from nose to tail, but the engines still run.

Screenshot from DCS, the vertical stabilizer and tail planes from the earlier damaged C-130 are sitting on the taxiway while the aircraft itself is heading to park.

Screenshot from DCS - showing the map view and overall tactical situation of the campaign. Left side with the isle of Cyprus is green and extends to the north to Incirlik airport on mainland. Everything to the east is red, hostile territory with paths between the airfields and defense sites marked in red arrows.

A Picture in Picture of a F-15E in a hanger can be seen at the top left corner, and there’s me - a purple/blue anthro bird at the bottom left sitting in a ejection seat.

My fiery Phoenix self is looking pretty mischievous in the front with flames around me. While in the game my Helldiver is looking at the back of another player, named Some Egrets on the command deck of the SES Courier of Conviviality. One might guess he is in danger.

It’s a cool space bird wearing sun glasses and a space suit without a helmet in front of the Outer Wilds title screen.

Two cardboard boxes dropped by the chat are stacked over me, a bigger one overlapping the other. The game in the background is Horsey Game, with some wild variety of “horses”, some of which look like crocodiles, giraffes, dragons and mixes of thereof jammed into the trailer, all of them asleep. Some science beakers are also in the trailer - the likely source of said horses. A few more “horses” are in a paddock at the farm.

There’s my bird self in the lower left corner, looking visibly unhappy. A subtitle reads “fine, this is not the end. We will decline. You are not the emperor, and we will..”

A prompt says “Do you accept the ruling?” A mouse cursor is hovering over “No”.

Screenshot from Discord with a picture from my stream.

Trancek: “@Aviancer this is what I wanted to screenshot earlier 😂 rather an excellent visual reaction to that tech report”

The tech report is showing a huge disparity between my Alkari race and the Klackon now that the alliance has shared all their tech. Anything bright white under several different categories is something we don’t have and they do. Both my expression and posture communicate highly alarmed concern 😰

Reactions on the picture range from screaming fear to birds on fire and laughter.

The tracker is hooked up to a SDR radio and headphones as if receiving a signal from space or transmitting one. The display says “Hailing Frequencies” and has a frequency graph of audio on it alongside with some menu items like “Amplify” being selected.

Screenshot from DCS, an A-10 is flying low down over some trees and nosing up after evading fire. A surface to air missile streak is seen having been fired from further away and hit another aircraft flying higher up.

Some white superglue is visible in the break, sealing it back together again. The 3D printed part is attached to the quad with two screws.

Titled “Death Gate”.

A composite movie poster style picture made of three different sceneries from the Death Gate spliced together as if a gate has opened in the middle. Left to right, a castle in front of billowing clouds, a large tree in a jungle, a lake of lava surrounded by rock. The picture shows many of the characters in the game, an adventurer stands out in the middle haloed by a yellow glow. Two white robed figures stand on either side of him, one wearing a wizards hat.

On the left side a number of unfortunate individuals are shown, including a sad child - fronted by a smiling king. A man standing behind him has a knife held up in his hand as if to strike.

In the middle in front of the hero sits a sophisticated man wearing blue robes and reading a book.

To the right a brigand threatens a lady dressed in red and an apron with a sword. At the front an aged man reads a book, a reanimated dwarf sitting beside him.

Many groupings are references to the game, others intentional misdirections.

Screenshot from DCS, the picture is from above. Three fighter aircraft, left to right F-16, F-15E air to ground Strike Eagle and a F-15C air superiority fighter. They are fanned out like on the circumference of a circle on an apron next to each other all pointing towards the middle.

Screenshot from DCS, a smoking Mi-24P hind flying from left to right attacking some ground targets on the right. An explosion can be seen from a weapon impact on a vehicle and a few other vehicles on fire. The backdrop is a forested valley and a road running through it with a bridge crossing a river.

Screenshot from DCS, F-15 fighter flying high altitude above the clouds in the sky blue and the ocean. The F-15 has fired two AIM-120 missiles at a target contrailing a white trail behind it. One of the missiles has just lighted, the other one has made some distance already and has a white plume of smoke trailing behind it.
