Talking about that castle, you can get physical casts of this fantastic 6mm Japanese fortress on kickstarter right now! Roofs by me, everything else by Slug Industries Phil himself. www.kickstarter.com/projects/slu...

Theres a @greatdismal.bsky.social line from Burning Chrome, how megacorps are the dominant species on earth. Employees in a corp are like the 70%+ fungi/bacteria that make up the human "body". The rest of us? Krill. Collectively essential food, individually too tiny to acknowledge or value.

I do a bunch of small commission work in 3d and prints, for example I provided the roofing for the master sculpt of this castle!

tbf, can you imagine the feeling of a clogged vent on a weapons pod you are controlling with your chosen one space magic brainwaves? Like phantom limb constipation/stuffed nose.

incredibly fucked up keyboard layout from "Dirty Pair"

I love what @emersontung.bsky.social pulled off here. At first glance the Type-S looks like a pallet swap, but when you look closely there isn't a part that's identical. The profile and proportions match, but the internal shapes don't. The joints have the same arrangement, but use different parts.

Continuing my adventures in tiny trains, I'm stunned by how different a quick sketch in CAD and a physical "prototype" can feel. The render made me feel like I was going to need to reconsider things, meanwhile approximating it with physical bits? Looks fine to me!

The changing state of the Kyz Empire is reflected in its tankheads: PzK I - Designed as they mourned the old Kaiser’s death, reliable but unimpressive. PzK III - Poorly planned, in need of revision. PzK V - Formidable, but hampered by the Empire’s attrition.

Tag yourself, I'm a horrible mix of both which leads to conflicting emotions.

This is too good not to Share. One machine that tears out the old track and puts in the new. It's like switching shoes while walking on them. It's front runs on the old track, it's rear on the new! www.instagram.com/reel/DIZWUe6...

Coolest thing I've seen at Salute today: this minis version of the classic early-80s Atari arcade game Battlezone. Not the digital-to-tabletop adaptation I'd expected to find, but wow.

First of, cool idea! But it made me think how until very recently, so much of weaponry and warfare was organically grown. Wood, feather rope and string make bows, arrows ships and carts. But even many of the ingredients of blackpowder. Animals and plans would be bred and grown specifically for war.

I love making maps like these - based on a real life object, recreated for use at your gaming table. Diagetic objects like these increase my sense of immersion. You're looking at the same map as your character.
