Celebrated my 26th birthday earlier this week! Spent some quality time with my family IRL and then with some of my best friends in #VRChat.

I am glad I can connect with them better thanks to this platform, it makes these long distance friendships just that much easier~!

Another one of the aircraft I have modeled is the SW-210 Colibri, a fictional jet trainer designed by my dear friend Hueman (@flyinghueman.bsky.social ). It is flyable in #VRChat and will be the star of a world I will be releasing soon-ish~

Some pictures from a private Su-34 Fullback mod for #DCSWorld! Would you like this to ever become an official module, however unlikely that might be?

During a recent session a period appropriate dogfight ended with a literal splash as an F-4E got a gun kill on the pursuing MiG-19P. #flightsim #DCSWorld

The Phantom is here! The F.GR-4 "Wraith" for @mackerelskydev.bsky.social's project, At Skies' Edge, is now done. It was such a privilege to get to work on my favorite aircraft, and then get to see it fly in the game.

I've been fortunate enough to work with @cubeboy.bsky.social on getting the modelling done for ASE and his work is really carrying the visuals of the entire project!! I hope I'll be able to improve the terrain visuals enough to match the quality of his aircraft. #gamedev #flightsim #acecombat

An experienced player of the Microsoft Flight Simulator series expresses hope and frustration with #MSFS2024 weeks after the release of this #flightsim.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is Off to a Rough Start…

This game is still recording a solid “Mixed” review state on Steam. Maybe I should have still listened…

Here are some screenshots of the KF.21, an aircraft I've modeled for @mackerelskydev.bsky.social's project: At Skies' Edge. It is the first of many planes coming to the game.

I have been enjoying my time modeling aircraft, and the next one is on its way already! #indie #gamedev

Project Wingman's dogfighting is exciting, rivaling giants like Ace Combat. How do you feel about Project Wingman? Have you tried it?

Despite its flaws, I had a lot of fun with the DLC. It was a nice standalone experience that brought me back to Project Wingman and showed me why I liked it.
