Playing Armored Core 6 again to play Coop with a friend, but the arena fights still have to be soloed so I got to dunk on some NPC cores. It's still one of my favorite games ever - I really hope we get an expansion announcement sooner rather than later.

More excellent work from @nightspinsfmt.bsky.social - bought a "Surprise me" commission and got back a real treat.

Finished an idler game called Starvester today that was pretty good! But I can't help but feel like the final structure felt a little bit familiar...

Another new masterful mischievous commission from @nightspinsfmt.bsky.social - worthy of putting on a GM screen

Got the new helmet, but it's definitely a unique fit to squeeze it on my face.

Commissioned the previously mentioned nomusan400 for a version of the Oraculum III without the brain cortex shapes on it. It's on the way from Japan currently, but here's the pictures I got. Very excited for this one.

I was curious, so I went to the RUINER 2 discord to ask. Word from the Community Manager -there's no plans to use Gen AI for the game. Looking forward to it now!

I loved the original RUINER so much that I spent years trying to find someone to properly execute on the concept of the screen-as-a-helmet. I actually have two of them.

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 02/03/2026
You'd think I'd be pretty excited about the idea of a remaster or sequel to RUINER given I'm enough of a fanatic to have the helmet I do. But honestly, no thanks. REIKON leaned in to slop for voicework in Metal Eden and their Creative Director also has some very bad takes about LLM shit in general.

Whoops! I forgot to post this one. Got this sketch commission a while back from @ehudkurzweil.bsky.social and I adore it. More card tricks!

There's still some level of design constraint that it needs the three cameras unobscured, but at least I can do some cool stuff with the overall head shapes. Mass Effect Geth? (Curved control surfaces) Appleseed Briaeros? (metal shell/multiple eyes). AC6 Nightfall? (blocky/industrial). 9/?

Anyway I'm not great at drawing, but I figure if I can make something all encompassing that hooks on to the arms of the quest, that would work. Fan installs would be easy. USB powered. But I'm struggling to figure out the shape the shell should take. Beveled edges, hard surface modeling? 8/?

The next two helmets I acquired were ones I was looking for were designed with gaps for vision. In the version 1: The space between LED bands was generous enough to see. (but resolution suffered.) In the version 2, it was holes in the circuit board. (very limiting.) 4/?
130
Ziiro @ziiro.net · 16/12/2025
But after solving those problems, it didn't work because the helmet I was trying to get it to work with was a Machine56 Rex - which had a smooth reflective surface on the front, and eyeholes inside. Nowhere to cleanly mount a camera without causing damage. 3/?

Rebuilt the toggles with VRCFury in a way so that it has a "load in" animation, and after that the dissolve is used as a turn off/turn on.

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 29/09/2025
There is also a toggle-able "explode" animation that can hold the panels in orbit.

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 29/09/2025
Been tinkering a lot in Blender/Unity these days for VR related things. I recreated my halo in 3D as an object, then created a looping set of random animations for the panels.

Artian set scratches the right itch in MH:Wilds. In motion it's interesting to watch the shaders move the "moving" pieces. It also makes some minor sound modifications to your movements to make it sound like gizmos.

I'm finally going to try to retire the M56 REX-G6 from Con service. Although I have the new RUINER LED one, I brought this one more time as a backup this year. I filled in all the chips and cracks with gold paint for a kintsugi effect. But it's not holding up well in general.

And now MAGfest is over. As quickly as it got here it is gone. See you next year!

MAGfest wraps up today. I didn't collect a whole lot of ribbons but the ones I got are perfect.

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 25/01/2025
I've been walking around MAGfest since Thursday. In both my M56 REX and my RUINER LED mask. Lots of people who have been fun to stop and chat with!

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 26/12/2024
It's a full helmet! It custom made by a company called Etereshop.

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 22/12/2024
I will be at #MAGFest next month! Currently doing some last minute testing on the newest helmet I've got. Got the name badge ready to go as well (special thanks to @illumicyberwear.bsky.social !)

I am obsessed with Factorio Space Age to a degree I'm shocked I still have the capacity for. On the one hand, I'm glad I can wring this much enjoyment out of something. On the other, I am definitely getting *too old for this shit.*

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 23/11/2024
... I then played through it again, with different map settings, solo. My dreams are belts and machines.

Obviously I love the iconography of Tarot cards, so I had to pick up this commission from @koshice.bsky.social who does these really incredible Tarot card commissions. Go check them out! (Click for the full size image!)

Finished the marathon of beating Space Age in Factorio as a two player coop. All in all I'm pretty satisfied with most of it. However I think my only two adjustments I'd make for map gen is to turn up richness to max everywhere, and make the islands bigger on Fulgora. Building there sucked.

Note: I had a seamstress handle the stitching on the arm patches (because I don't have the tools to do that right), and also attach some sleeve cuffs with thumb holes. End result is something I'm pretty pleased with. It's got an interesting silhouette because of how it hangs when worn.

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 18/10/2024
Next step? Cover it in patches. Graphicine on etsy makes some incredible, large ones. I also ordered a set of Tarot woven patches to go across the bottom edge. I also pulled the old "flight tags" I used to wear on the zippers from my old ones and attached them to the shoulder straps.

One of my more recent projects I want to share is a new coat I've been working on. I've been partial to longer hoodies for a while, and my old one was getting pretty ratty. So I bought a new one to work from from etsy. First customization when I ordered it: make the external pockets internal

Oh! I guess I forgot to post these here! What a tragedy! Got these two separate commissions from x.com/2eeillust earlier this year and I am still pleased beyond words. 2ee is a master of the metallic and gold - the flow and the style.

Been playing a fair amount of the new WoW expansion pack because they finally granted my wish: The ability to play a Dwarf and also be Horde. Obviously, the fact they are basically robot dwarves does not hurt.

The Jester's Handshake - another commission done by the ever talented @moiddoesart.bsky.social GOG-AGOG of Kill Six Billion Demons was one of my inspirations for the new look/character, so when this idea came to me in a dream I had to get it drawn.

Been reworking my vtuber model lately. First it was materials to be shiny, and then it was getting the eye tracking/expressions dialed in with ARKit. I'm pretty happy with the state of it. Been streaming off and on lately but I don't announce it here because it's short/test stuff

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 27/03/2024
Another commission fresh off the digital presses from @ordheist.bsky.social ! I really love this one - it conveys the boss character/villain feeling that I wanted perfectly. Thanks again Ollie!

A lovely pixel art commission by @phon.bsky.social ! Saw their art on my timeline a while back and I was enthralled at the palettes, characters, style. Got lucky and got a slot pretty quick! Thank you again Phon!

Got this gift and these commissions from a good friend of mine, Sprinkles! (Who I don't think is here on bsky yet - puppyinatrenchcoat on tumblr!) A chibi version, GMing, and very necessary meme picture

Spoiled myself with building a custom mechanical keyboard. It's about 90% done. Because I forgot to buy stabilizers. Still usable until those get here next week, and quite nice to use.

Someday I hope to be able to draw better for myself, but currently I can do silly trace overs for memes and other bullshit Carl / Thonking / "healthcare pls"

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 17/02/2024
Ported a Carl model to VRM for a friend of mine to use in Lethal Company. Works pretty well I'd say

Ziiro @ziiro.net · 13/02/2024
I commissioned another Jesterbot ziiro model from Moth (BloodCrisisGame on twitter!) a while back that I really like as well. I've got it fully setup now for VRChat just to have even more options to wear, virtually!
040
Ziiro @ziiro.net · 10/02/2024
Harder to show off without a gif (bluesky pls), but I commissioned a model for VRChat (from JadeVoiceOvers on Fiverr!) that I converted over to VRM for VSeeFace. I also upgraded it to have eye tracking via Waidayo, and hand tracking via LeapMotion.

Super special shuffle by @erikagskerzz.bsky.social I tell myself that given the design, I should learn card actual tricks... but I've got a bad case of stupid fingers. Maybe someday!

My current portrait was done by NightspinSfmt! I'm very happy with this one - I use it all of my platforms at this point. Very perfectly shiny.

A perfectly powerful punch was penned by @moiddoesart.bsky.social I've always been a huge nerd for unarmed characters and martial arts styles in games and artwork. Fast, powerful stuff. Monk in Diablo 3, Fists of Havoc in Destiny 2, Asura's Wrath - so getting something like this done was a treat.

I may as well start posting some things here! I'm not an artist, but I'm enough of a narcissist that I enjoy commissioning artists to draw my virtual self: Ziiro, the Jester robot, a machine deity of luck!
