We are all over-looked charity cases after all! 😉

So *that’s* why they went extinct!

Yeah, but it would be just as unsatisfying.

I thought those screens stayed on even when the devices were off? (Because that technology doesn’t need power.)

Provided you’re not made of paper!

Nevertheless, I still have a problem with all these prequels ostensibly fleshing out things we already know. “A lot of good people died bringing us this information.” Give us a new story! Be brave!!

Agreed. I almost didn’t watch it at all, because neither of the opening episodes were compelling. But other people kept raving about it so I went back and stuck it out. It does make a good trilogy, as it were, with Rogue One.

I'd think twice about that one - mildew is not so good for the lungs!

Cold enough here overnight that the building put the heat on. But yeah, wonderful weather!

This is where I see AI adding value - allowing a creator to more easily create things without needing heavy technical skills. Having said that, it remains to be seen whether this platform has what it takes.

And for that, any of them - they all look like they have some interesting stories to tell!

If you’re reworking it, I’d suggest only shading the things that are actually black first, then adding the color, *then* shading the colored areas. If that’s not too intrusive!

Also on the “coulda” front, making those tentacles a lurid red or purple would really make them stand out!

For myself, I actually start all my artwork in stark B&W, but I’m working digitally, and then I color in the black bits as well as the white bits. And, of course, I rarely use solid color, mostly blends.

I think you think in B&W, and you’re always cross-hatching things, so all the shadows are in there before you even get the paintbox out. (Here, for example, you could have painted the floor a dark color, rather than shading it first.) (Observation, not criticism!)

I will always prefer color, but the B&W one is a bit easier to parse.

Digesting her last meal, or waiting for the next one to print out.

Yes, but you’re not a lizard, by the looks of it, so you’re in the clear to evolve nipples if you want.

There we have to part ways. If you want to feed your reptile babies, you should regurgitate your food like a regular reptile. (Or whatever it is that regular reptiles do - I honestly don’t know!)

So many books in the world, so little time to read them!

Also, I really like the Caribbean thing of just saying Hi to everyone! (Well, “Good morning/afternoon/evening, how are you?”)

And if I were to worry about looking stupid, I wouldn’t be able to go out!

I have, for certain, upset quite a few people over the course of my lifetime by *not* greeting them (poor eyesight and/or terrible memory), so now I’d rather cordially greet someone I don’t know, and err on the side of caution.
