Been busy doing up some 1/100 French vehicles...

Old Miller Bro @oldmillerbro.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

side project to keep me busy- another designer had made a cool RT era Dreadnaught and I converted it into a 1/18 scale version with ball and socket and hinge joints to go with my Joy Toy figures... (ball/socket version of the files are unavailable as I dont own the rights to the OG model- sorry)

Not been posting lately as I took the week off my next project and farted around with a pet project of a friend (turn a stl figure he had into an action figure with ball and socket joins). In all honesty Im not sure Im going to enjoy social ANYTHING much less media seeing the state of the world...

While Trump is trolling Canada about annexing it, Canadians are in Los Angeles tonight dropping water on the Palisades fire. He’s a disgrace.

So I mostly post about my art here. But every now and then I also share about things that matter to me or those I love. No apologies for that.

Another mini comic strip I did as a test of concept

3d sculpted figures in a comic strip format:
Text- As the battle ends...

Any Last words? (A soldier coughs and gasps as he is held aloft by his throat by a giant of a man in armour)
Perhaps beg for your lives and ask for mercy?

No... (the soldier replies) we are through begging for things...

So be it... (says the man in armour)

Hospitals are killing patients because they don't feel like doing infection control

We now know COVID is fully airborne. We also know how to control airborne disease. So why are vulnerable people still dying of hospital-acquired COVID?

just insane. Reviewing a paper on covid in Canada that finds an 11-fold increase in risk of hospitalization in the month after infection. Just absolutely bonkers. I've been doing respiratory virus epi for a long time, and we really don't trade in statistics like "relative risk = 11"

My take on a iconic character. I wouldnt say he is my hero, I think if anything my 'hero' of that genre setting would be either Doc Hammer or Jackson Publick - love what they created

-If I use a rake to pick up these leaves it will take all day. This just wont do at all...
-There comes a time in every mans life-

Another one of my short comics- these were more tests of concept than actual stories. My previous comics were done by shooting the physical miniatures and then photo editing and I wanted to see if this was any easier (its not lol- both take substantial efforts to do)

3d designed objects in a 3d environment (Blender)
-Hold it Steady!

Taking most of the month off work to spend my time with my wife as her health has really spiraled as of late. It means I dont have a whole lot of new content to display so I will be sharing some old images- this was a 3 figure set I did along with a variety of terrain elements

3d sculpted figures in a 3d designed environment (1/48 scale scale models) in Blender
-Why the heck are we here? This place is Abandoned
-which precisely is why we are here
-for the boredom?
-no
-the amazing weather?
-Because when people abandon places they leave things behind
-Like garbage
-rusty garbage
-Valuable garbage

Im dont identifying with any party-I identify with issues and the integrity around the things I value. I can honestly say I dont see much integrity in any party politics these days. Yes, some ARE much worse than others but the ideal amount of 'turds in a hot tub' is zero and thats what I support

Evidence is mounting that Elon Musk manipulated the X/Twitter algorithm to boost his own posts as well as those of prominent conservatives. I talk about a new pre-print, and whether or not BlueSky is our savior 🧪 skepchick.org/2024/12/is-e...

I’ve noticed that since the 2024 US elections, more and more of you have asked me if I have joined a social media network other than Xitter, and 99% of the time, you’ve asked specifically if I’m on…

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

So I dont tend to link to my Gumroad site on these sorts of sites as I dont need the hassle or the bots- but if you are interested in 3d printing and/or the advent calendars comment below and I will message you with the links :)

When the pandemic started I began to work more with online content creators: This set is 1/100 scale so 18mm tall humans and thus the limbs needed to be thickened at scale so the figures are not frail.

a series of 3d caricature likeness works at 18mm tall 1/100 scale- each of these are real people with small businesses or content creators with websites I can refer you to if you like

Why won't I debate climate deniers? Debate WHAT! They offer no science, no evidence, no credible sources ... they just want to argue ... endlessly ... sharing lies, propaganda, and garbage ... claiming common sense disproves science. So, this is why I won't debate.
