Had a craft night with my future MIL and made little Star Wars snow globes using some miniatures from the X-Wing game (don’t worry we have like 4 more of each)
The dial that comes with the miniatures made the perfect Snowman top hat! 🥰

Working in games means your answer to the question "If you could do anything you wanted in life, what would it be?" isn't a different career, but the same career in a kinder version of the same industry.

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

TSFS may have been mostly locked into soundstage sets, especially for Genesis, but it sure did expand the world of the 23rd Century more.
Star Trek III destroyed one Enterprise, but gave us a generous helping of new ships (plus a spacedock) to compensate. The Bird of Prey and Excelsior went on to become fan favourites, but one is not so universally loved.

CLEARED HOT is my sleeper game of the year personally. I am such a huge fan of the helicopter action games like JUNGLE STRIKE and NUCLEAR STRIKE and CLEARED HOT, even in the demo, delivered on that formula and even added to it with its amazing winch and physics system!
Cleared Hot is a very fun game with a lot of charm, but the MS Paint tutorial images really push it over the top for me

Here was another of those mock Star Wars Visual Dictionary-style renders I did last year, with my TIE Shuttle model. I didn't have as much to fill the page composition with on this one, and the model is a lot less detailed. I would probably need to add an inset or only dedicate half of a page to it.

Getting close to painting, love how the filler primer looks like zinc chromate, might paint the interior surfaces with that for some added authenticity

So I'm running a #startrek #rpg set in the years after the Romulan War (2190's). These are the deck plans of the ship, Intrepid NCC-15. She's been refitted to launch the next generation of com relays. Think of her as a cable laying ship. Would love to know what y'all think. #spaceships 1/2

I recommend donating if you can. The transformation Blender has seen in the past few years has been incredible. I'm donating because, as someone who uses expensive Autodesk tools, it's been great for me too - 3DS Max is in much better shape since Autodesk has had to worry about a "free" competitor.
