Pickles!

How many people are still playing modded TotK? How many of those people even WANT a mod like this? There's me. So one? Why am I even considering working on this?

And this is how I feel about a LOT of things I want to do. If it's just for me and I can't share it, why bother?

I'm done. Rant over.

All this just to say that, even if I DID share my "bottomless" mod as it's own thing, a lot of the modeling work was done by EZ. So I'd have to get his okay to use his models AND Cain's permission to even share it. And for what audience? -->

But the tops need tweaking, too. See, the armors actually stretch around Link a bit, creating a gap that is usually hidden by belts or fringes. I've tightened a bunch of upper armors to Link's model, giving them a better look when bottomless. -->

Some pieces, it is as simple as delete the pants part and leave the boots. But some require a little more creative editing to keep the theme and not look like someone took a pair of scissors to his pants. Plus, the base Link wears belts to hide waistlines. I deleted those, so pants end abruptly. -->

Initially, I did the work myself, adjusting the lower-body armors to fit the digitigrade Wolf Link model. But EZ's models look a LOT better than what I had done. So I pivoted to editing THEIR models rather than adjust the stock ones. At least for the lower body. -->

There are actually TWO caveats I'm contending with. First, Cain's "no adult content" request. The fluff version I'm sure is perfectly fine. But the sheath version is likely a bit much. But the other (and probably more weighty) is that a lot of the armor models were modified by EZFastPaws. -->

I totally get behind the au naturael look, but I think it's a bit of a cop-out to HAVE the armors, but nothing to reflect that. Immersion breaking, if you will.
My edits are more of a "bottomless" patch. PatchES, since I made 2 concurrently. One version has the fluff, but the other has a sheath. -->

Cain's mod has an "invisible armor" option that, like it says, makes all armors invisible. Leaving Wolf Link effectively nude the whole time. (There are a couple Link models you can choose to use; one in underwear and one with a big patch of fluff.) My tweaks are meant to expand on that a bit. -->

Which I'm really on the fence about. See, Cain requested no adult content be made public using his mod. And I can respect that. But that means I'm really the ONLY person who gets to enjoy my "tweaks" to the models... And much like single player Minecraft, what's the point? -->

I was looking at Cain's Wolf Link TOTK mod files last night, thinking I wanted to load them onto my Switch. He included a "smaller head" version of Link that looks much nicer, proportionally speaking.
Now I'm wondering if I want to adjust all the models I made to fit the smaller-head version. -->

Looking at that watch like, "It's only half-past November! I'll NEVER get back to sleep!"

I don't INTENTIONALLY do this, but it has saved me a bunch of times when I go to ink something and wonder, "Why the heck is it so light?"

"STOP FAKE THROWING THE BALL!"

Oh man. I am in LOVE with that name.

Whenever I finally start this sticker business I've been dragging my feet on, I'm going to have to get a payment machine of some kind. And after a transaction, I'll say, "The machine will ask you a question." But it won't be for a tip. It'll be, "Which is better: Sea or river otters?"

I don't know how many of you are interested in amateur radio, but in this collection of ancient bookmarks, I re-discovered this neat site:

It's a web SDR that covers a huge spectrum.

Today was a slog... Just a plain bad day.

BUT

I did happen to find a porn video I had been trying to locate for a few years now. So there's that.

I have no idea if this creator has a film background, but if not, they have an incredible eye for composition. This, and their other works, would actually be a great teaching tool for an editing/boarding/cinematography class. Clever camera angles, strong posing, and easy to follow despite quick cuts

Nah! This is like the arrow in the FedEx logo! D:

Got the funny number when I logged into my Microsoft account today.

"He died like he lived. Stupidly."

"Make the punishment fit the crime!"

Oh! LOL

I was really hoping to hear the HL2 death flailing sound after the ragdoll.

Thank you, blue sky, for the arbitrary logout from the app.

My brother just sent me a video of dad at PT. He's climbing stairs! We'll, with assistance, but hes on his own feet! This is huge!

This entire video plays out like a 5 year old telling you about his "really awesome story."
"So I jumped out of a helicopter and was shooting at a bus- no, wait, subway! The bad guys were getting away, so I jumped on the subway too! But then there was- and the train stopped and there was a drone..."

So now, I get to take time out of MY day to fix THEIR communication problems.

This is BEYOND annoying.

I'm suddenly reminded why I don't make doctors appointments for myself. My primary doc said he would send a referral to the cardiologist so I could make an appointment with them. Doc said to wait a couple days to make sure they got it. So I did. Called the cardi and they don't have the referral.

1. Or something closer to zero. I'm about as intimidating as vanilla ice cream.
