This would be perfect to listen to on a drive from, oh, say... New York to Minnesota... don'tcha know.

Oh little drone ship...
Spacedock Drone/Shuttle Drone TNG. Working through the mesh is done, now UV and soon a paint job.

The last shot is the ship ready for its UV pass. ;-)

Latest nights/weekends while job hunting (damn...). Switched over to this Tug, as a Merchantman break and recharge. For the MM, I now have the parts to convert for the Sheliak colony ship.
DS9's Atlas Tug, as built by Judy Elkins for S6E1.

Boy I bet she felt pretty silly when she realized she wasn't even wearing glasses, huh...?

Dude, you could just say you're on page one, sheesh...

This was a great time, an excellent idea.

Sigh and augh... ;-) another crummy blow from about two and a half years of unemployment and being about to lose my house... every twenty dollars has to go somewhere else, not even to books. I hope that folks have a lot of reading in front of them soon...

So... win-win.

He would attend Siggraph and similar, and had a few folks he'd regularly talk with for insight and inspiration.

-.- Page one Google result stuff on Home Ec 101, JS... no scrolling even needed to find this, come on dig deeper man! Flyaway/static electricity hair... are the scented ones an accepted remedy or no?

Executives, whoever the hell they are, have said that if it isn't 'proven' IP then they don't want it. Usually supporting this with lines like, 'No one would take a chance on the original Star Wars today' etc.

You need to behold the cherpumple...

(Star Trek at 60)
#startrek #boldlygo #leonardnimoy #llap Though many use the Sept 8 airdate as the official 'birthdate' of the show, the production began years earlier. Today is the 60th anniversary of Day 1 shooting on The Menagerie. You know what to do. ;-) Bob Justman's schedule:

38 years young... it was an interesting choice on Nimoy's part, inspired by Biophilia, to push for the theme and subject of extinction consequences, and also to recognize Nicholas Meyer's writing style. No photon torpedoes, no villains, with a little punk rock indeed. #startrek #theonewiththewhales

It is so fucking disrespectful when networks/streams do this.

In anticipation of tomorrow's anniversary... in my head the Minions would be the best cosplay group, and of course their 'props' always work.

As I move on to what should be the last iteration of this ship, v5!, it occurs to me that my admiration for it is rooted in it being the ship that brought Spock back to the family...
Still job hunting, it's brutal, but thankfully this sort of work is part of that.

It started so simply, really... a little time put into a dedicated search for the original, then finding a range of them were out there and... well... yeah...

Turkey Day is coming, this year with special guests hosting favorite experiments. Join us, won't you?

RRSG - Livingston's Ride.
I strive for high-fidelity to original miniatures. This Ready Room Stargazer, seen in Picard's 'office', was a blast as it gave me a reason to shore up some gaps in my anime kits ;-) And yes, I was able to get THREE of the gashopon :-)

Still on the job hunt, alas, so not a ton of time for hobbies, but thankfully can try to push on with this sort of thing.

If you have the resources to, sure... but the rest of us?

Re-use of a TMP monitor, no?

Kind of a... I dunno... lack of burrito going on here.

We need to be screaming about the energy usage of AI engines from our whole heart. Testing it out, making weird art “just to see”, heck even using “AI search engine results” are a MASSIVE energy drain.
