I like to draw stuff, sometimes fuzzy sometimes mechanized. Lancer Forever GM. Currently working as an industrial drafter. Also I have an Itch webpage now! It's sparse, but more content coming in the future perhaps? https://annecrow.itch.io/

So I finally decided to up and upload it; now available on Itch, The RKF Grammatophyllum, an homebrew third party frame for the Lancer RPG, inspired by the module Shadow of the Wolf and the work of @kastark.bsky.social and @siegefault.bsky.social .

We should all, once in our lives, have the opportunity to describe Brian Blessed in alt text

One of the few things about short term memory loss is that I can pull pranks on myself. An easy way to do that is deliberately let my phone timeout with, say, zoomed-in photos of Brian Blessed from Flash Gordon on the screen so that this is the first thing I see when I pick it back up

Brian Blessed's ridiculous character Prince Vultan from 1980's "Flash Gordon." Brian Blessed is known for playing absurdly over-the-top characters and his explosively loud, booming voice. He is very muscular, has a black beard, is holding a metal war mace, and has an uncomfortably huge tooth grin. He is wearing an ostentatious gold, winged helmet; he has massive black-and-gold feathered wings sprouting from his back (yes, he flies with them); his armor, if it could be called that, is all black leather straps and overlapping black-and-gold leather "feathers." It leaves a lot of skin exposed. Leather Daddies at Pride would tell him to dial it back a bit. If this were a female character in a video game, it would probably be patched to cover more up, or the player just forgot to put gear in the Legs slot.

In short, Brian Blessed single-handedly made Flash Gordon a work of camp legend.

Today's #Weretober - a raven! We get them around here sometimes, though usually not quite this big or with extra limbs...

This workshop will initiate with people from Mexico, Latin America and Europe to strengthen the ties of stop motion and collaboration and, in exchange, education will be provided for free for one Mexican / Latinamerican student for the first ten years also.

Cartoon Brew @cartoonbrew.bsky.social · 21h

Guillermo del Toro, Netflix, and Gobelins have teamed to open a stop-motion studio in Paris. The endeavor shares a kindred spirit with Mexico's El Taller del Chucho, also co-founded by del Toro, and will honor stop-motion legend Mark Gustafson.

Just deployed a hotfix (0.4.3) that fixes a crash in the character sheet when working with Executioner, Monarch, or a number of other weapons. It's always the last thing you add before a deploy that gets ya.
As always, I recommend using the itch.io app to automatically get patches like these.

DARKENED SKYE is a forgotten 2001 Gamecube Action RPG made by folks who seemed *extremely mad* about the product tie-in they were forced to incorporate.

I had a great time on Aftermath talking about how you can use Assassin’s Creed as a method of tracing the pathway to the world we live in.

The Assassin’s Creed series was a canary in the coal mine for our modern, engagement-obsessed world. @ckunzelman.bsky.social explains:

I'd really encourage folks in Canada to write out their thoughts in this survey.

Most of mine were "Don't", but I really got to dial in on some.
