It's SubD! I just went as hard as i could on the details and build it for use within Blender. But I guess with some work on some parts it could be optimized for that 😄

I finally finished another part of my biggest project to date! Here is the cockpit of a fictional variant of the F-35A. While I mostly stuck to the reference, I took some liberties in some details.

Thank you so much for these examples! Especially when it comes to these mechanical rigs I need to see some of these in detail to understand what's going on!

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

Jim Sciutto @jimsciutto.bsky.social · Feb 28

Trump has not uttered a critical word about Putin but he and his VP publicly belittled the leader of the nation Putin invaded.

While I'm running on full steam to get most of this plane done soon after sooo much time of neglect, here is some wireframe of the cockpit, where my current focus is. Wireframes to me look so ... satisfying?

I've decided to post more about what's going on in the moment!
For the past few days I've been breaking my brain on geo nodes again, this time creating contrails. Still needs further tweaking, but I'm getting somewhere!

Today, we remember all the victims murdered during the Holocaust.

We mark the 80 years since the liberation of the Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau.

This memory must be passed to future generations.

#HolocaustRemembranceDay

An image of the railway tracks leading to the main gate of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the Nazi concentration and extermination camp. The text reads, "80 years since the liberation of Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau." Below is the hashtag #WeRemember.

I sometimes use a drawing tablet with my left, but can still use my right for shortcut buttons and quickly using the mouse on the side for UI stuff. I love it!

NEW: I've obtained internal Meta docs revealing an array of sample posts that are now allowed under new hate speech rules. Examples include calling children "trannies," “Jews are flat out greedier than Christians," and “immigrants are grubby, filthy pieces of shit”

theintercept.com/2025/01/09/f...

Leaked Meta Rules: Users Are Free to Post “Mexican Immigrants Are Trash!” or “Trans People Are Immoral”

Facebook now allows attacks on immigrants and trans people, and posts like “Mexican immigrants are trash!” and “I’m a proud racist.”

It's the first year to exceed 1.5°C above pre-industrial level, with every month but one since July 23 surpassing this threshold.
