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...

Looks great! Honestly all 3d design is at its heart is perseverance- put enough time and effort in and you eventually get the desired results

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)

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"

I once suggested we needed to find out WHY there was a cover up if nothing was there- only to have Dem Stans tell me I was clearly a Republican supporter. It gets a huge laugh from my friends as anyone who knows me has heard how I feel about R politics- showed me fanatics are a both sides problem

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

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)

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

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

“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!

it also flies in the face of her bungling of the original SARS pandemic in the early 2000s where the official conclusion was she wasnt following the precautionary principle then either and was told to do better- I rather suspect she wasnt chosen for her expertise so much as her politics :/

Insane isnt it? A paper released today showed that it is indeed 'shed into the air' which is the new term for 'aerosol spread' which of course was the replacement term for 'airborne'- instead of a precautionary principle Bonnie likes to move goal posts with semantics :/

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
