I made my second model! This is a Hasegawa 1/72 scale F6F Hellcat, painted with mostly Tamiya paints. I'm quite proud of that dark blue color I mixed up!

I painted this Japanese 'Oscar' fighter! I see many mistakes in it, but it's a learning experience. My next one will be better 😁

They're openly calling to lock up every trans person by force. We need every ally to speak out forcefully against this because trans folks cannot do this on our own.

I'm back on bluesky after a long break.

Here's a beetle I drew over a year ago. It's still the best marker-work I've ever done:

I’m sorry but if your students use AI to write papers and you use AI to grade them zero school is happening. You are running together on a hamster wheel
Why even have a brain, any ideas, any ability to express them, any kind of communication with other people, any desire to solve problems or invent anything, any reason to learn, any use for your eyes or your heart, or any reason to teach or create

Every day a little part of me remembers and is angry about what happened to Isabel Fall for daring to write something so deeply human in the attack helicopter story

Dianne Jackson mastered the art of turning illustrations into animation. She did it in her film The Snowman, in the Peter Rabbit series and more.

Millions know Jackson's work, but few know about her. Our new issue tells the story of this great artist: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-unsung...

'Mars Attack - How Elon Musk's Plans for Mars Threaten Earth'

This is a really great read, and presented in the scroll storytelling format (I love this style).

RPGs are a form of art that is welcoming to people of every skill level. "But my map is bad!" "But my dungeon is kinda boring." WRONG. We're not talking about putting out albums, we're talking about singing around a campfire with a friend who has a guitar. Fun is the focus, not production quality.
