If you’re going to watch one Mobile Suit Gundam series, watch Gundam 0080, it’ll give you the best idea of what Gundam is like. “Is it short?” No it’s like fifty feet tall.

The only thing so far about the OOT remake that bugs me is Link’s hat. Materials texturing is always good. I can take or leave the extra decorative details and layering. But the tassels on the hat alters the silhouette. You don’t simply alter the silhouette.

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake features Lock-On Technology. Connect any previous Zelda game and play in a high-def remake of that version of Hyrule. (Except BOTW/TOTK, those just unlock a Zelda-themed version of Blue Sphere.)

I think I’ve outdone myself in 3D design and resin printing. I wasn’t sure I could both print and paint lettering that tiny. I could have made the dial rotate but it’d be too fiddly.

HIM: “Hey, I shipped my Megazone 23 kickstarter reward to your house since I’m moving. Can you open and check if the contents of the package look OK, and bring it next time you visit?” ME: “Oh I’ll do you one better. Heck I’ll do you two three better.” THE CONTENTS OF THE PACKAGE:
Fake box art for Megazone 23 Blu-ray but the title says Mega Chungus 23 (in both English and Japanese) with an image of Big Chungus. In the bottom corner are the logos for Manga Entertainment and US Manga Corps. Company spokes-mecha MD Geist appears courtesy of manga entertainment.

Folks, Big Chungus was a birthday present to @thomasguycott.bsky.social from a previous year. Guess what present he received next:
HGUC Gundam model kit box with custom fake art for a RX 179 big Chungus Mark II (Titans colors). Big Chungus is blue.

AI can never generate anything comparable to capturing this classic:
Three photos of a blonde woman staring at an orange cat. 
In the first photo, the cat is hunched over with an odd mugging expression; text reads “I’m poopin”.
Second photo, cat has a wide eye open mouth expression; text reads “IM POOPIN”.
Third photo, cat turns away with his eyes closed; text reads “false alarm”.

Why is Weepstone's artist from @talesworth.bsky.social seemingly tracing assets from @heroforgeminis.bsky.social ? I just whipped this up in 5 minutes with as many common elements as I recognized. Way more than a simple pose reference. Surely this isn't appropriate for the retail release?
Hand-drawn art from a screen in The Secret of Weepingstone, a kobold in a kettle helmet and chainmail in a dramatic jumping pose.A 3D model made using Hero Forge's custom assets. A kobold character in the exact same default HF stance (Leaping) and hand pose (Alt Main Grip), and kobold face, wearing the same chainmail shirt, skirt and collar and strikingly similar helm. Some elements are similar as if the Weepstone art made a basic character using HF assets, traced and simplified them.

Born & raised in Iowa, lived here all my life. I hate corn. Hate the smell, hate the texture, it’s the wrong kind of sweet in a vegetable. I don’t even like corn syrup in soft drinks. If it’s not popped or in a bread I don’t want to be within arms reach of corn.
