Tip for finding these models too! If your character is holding an object you can use Penumbra to see what weapon you are holding and it should be the prop!
The numbers usually split up into two for searching in textools, so 9030b0058 can search as just 9030 58

Gin: Today's painting keeps up with an abstract form of swirls but also something to celebrate the upcoming lunar new year with.

This is acrylic paint on mixed media.

Sorry haven't done many freehand videos lately for Oizys, been very busy and feeling sick-ish.

Here's an example for the Time-Restricted EX+ difficulty wise.
You've 2x chances to do it so it's better off macro'd but you can still freehand it like below. 2x speed for bsky/my powerpoint. #FFXIV

In his dreams, reading poetry.
On a bright sunny day the rays of the sun streak through the trees and hit the marbled post and railings. Upon the marble railing sits Dr. Arctinae in his comfy valentione's white, grey, and red cardigan and skirt with matching shoes. Upon his auburn strands of hair sits a quaint rusty red bow. Beside him is Gris in his own Comfy Grey cardigan and slacks while he reads from a book to Dr. Arctinae.

Worked out perfect because along with her creator and siblings there are 9 of them and exactly 9 monitors!

Maintenance day at the workshop! Anth and her robot siblings wonder why their sister An-2 (aka Ant) keeps getting scuffed and dented; they don't know that she gets up to mischief at night🤭She keeps the fact she has a soul and can move autonomously a secret from the others >:3

Around her the other 8 work; taking photos, welding sections of the robotic body, preparing to hit it with a comically large mallet, taking readings on a phone, checking information in a book, and sitting on the ground smoking. A dimly lit room with two robots looking at a book. On the left is a woman with a cube lined with colourful digital artifacts for a head. She is wearing a long pink labcoat and leaning over to point at a page in a book. On the right a woman with a small TV with cat ears for a head with a single eye displayed on the screen .

It's been a week into 7.41 so let's see how this held up. Recap on #gil observations.
7.41 Oizys + Occult Recap - Relics easier to get. 2 steps to get from v1.1 to Hyper. This may mean lower player activity overall. - Food/Tisane prices rose as expected, keeping steady for the next 1-2 weeks until most finish off their relics. Prices should come down but expect it to stay substantial so Goldentail fishers will still make gil. There's a critical lack of Goldentail being fished so it's a good market to break into. - Mission bloat was cut, Red Alerts released at the start, faster world progression, Expert Crafts easier than Phaenna/Sinus Ardorum will all contribute to lower prices/player activity. I.e. peak day one ~160 on my world compared to day six at 103. - Cosmic Fortune seems balanced for longevity on Oizys & for Dronebits/Drone Modules. Items like the Galumphing Grievance and the Cosmic Countenance Identification Key will likely stay at least double the price of the Cosmic Armored Weapon Key or higher due to their drops being a 7% drop rate from the Gold Ancient Record on an already 5% drop rate from the Dronebit Module. - Powersuit Coffer far more popular in price than the 7.31 Star Pilot Attire Coffer. Assuming due to fortune drop rate + desirability. - 7.31 Cosmoboard Prices steadily increasing. - Armored Weapon priced in day 1 at 50% less than the Cosmoboard assumed due to the ease of expert crafts on Oizys vs Phaenna. While the activity may be low the ease of access will help keep the token mount cheaper at 3 million. - PvE Tomestones won in 7.41 due to the gamble of having them required for the next relic step. Day 1 transferred 100s of millions of gil in the first few hours before promptly crashing middle of the day. Noting for 7.51 expectations because SE tends to copy relic steps. - Occult accessories + Carrot still steady even with the increased player activity. Note that Fortune Carrots can drop from (regular) silver chests with roughly a ~3% (2.89) drop rate while bronze sits still at 1%. - Good time to invest in Verdant Partitions.

Gin: Today's painting starts us into an abstract and thoughtless form from now until the month ends. January will lean into simply painting without purpose for just the joy of putting paint to canvas.

A traditional painting on mixed media white paper. It is framed in the shape of a rectangle with green and light green being the primary colors to cover the page. A yellow-colored iris is shaped with white eyelashes and black eyeliner with a stream of white paint making it look like a river (perhaps of tears). Black, yellow, and white speckle the entire page.

I used to have them all in one folder but it started struggling to load the thumbnails because there was over 20,000 images 😅
Now it's all organised into folders per year and sub-folders per month. I usually leave them all in the main folder until the end of year, and a seperate folder for edits.

Do you organize your screenshots? Or are they all piled up in one folder (like mine currently)?

I'm really actually proud of today's piece. It's not abstract and it has meaning behind it but i think it's neat. It won't be posted for a month on our art page but here's a preview.

It's of @bumblebread.bsky.social in a power suit helmet on Oizys looking out to the bubble beam sky.

Gin: Making a traditional art painting for every day of the year.

To start the series I'm painting this with not much in mind. Most of these to follow will be simply just abstract expressions.

Today's painting turned out to be a couple of metal hallways.
A traditional painting on mixed media paper. It is framed in the shape of a rectangle but details blends of black, yellow, grey, and white to form shapes of a hallway on the left and a perspective of a corridor on the right. The right's metal panels have a large yellow X with white lighting panels, yellow dots to represent "lights".

A tale in 3 parts: A mentor and his student. + a bonus alternative ending.

#gposers | #gpose | #songbirdcafe
A white haired female highlander punches a very tall red haired bearded male Roegadyn while he laughs and doesn't seem to feel it at all. They are in a snowy landscape at night wearing clothes suited to martial arts training. In the background in the fog a large shape can be seen moving towards them; it is a yeti approaching silently through the snow. A yeti has snuck up on a tall red haired male Roegadyn and a white haired female highlander. The highlander is kneeling in the snow as her mentor moves to block the yeti. A yeti getting hit by a powerful punch from the red haired male Roegadyn. The punch is powerful enough to lift the Yeti off the ground and launch it through the air. A white haired female highlander kneels in the snow shocked and amazed at the power of her mentor.

Part 2: The student becomes the master.

It took many years, but she mastered the punch she saw her mentor use when she was a young trainee.
