Progress!

It’s funny because I often get comments on this or that tee shirt, or some pants or shorts. I have literally bought no clothes for myself in decades.
Since my last shoe sponsorship lapsed, I haven’t...

95-99% of my wardrobe comes from thrift stores. I’d bet you can find some swank cargo pants/shorts in a thrift store.

Well… I mean, do you know any cosplayers? I think some of them do believe. :)

It’s not worth the bother, and I tried to bow out.

I don’t need to try and relate to people who obviously feel I’m beneath them.

Being as I’m poor, and all.

Stop for tri tip in Santa Maria. Also, near Lompoc is an ostrich farm that’s hilarious fun.

Today’s update.

Both layers to date.

No way! I have raced Copperopolis; a few times. I raced it on a Cannondale CAAD 10 frame set and Ultegra build. I think I had some swank carbon wheels the last time, because I remember that whizz...

Thanks, Yo. The Doodles really evolved some time back when I was BROTM, and needed filler. They’ve grown beyond themselves, since. :)

This one even contains one of the old school parenthetically...

I spent Saturday hanging out with a 15 year old that had a broken femur and lost part of his right thumb from a motorbike crash. It ain’t the getting hurt that bothers me.
All the places I used to...

Crap! I did not.

I was with a small gang of young people, including a few biologicals. :) It is pretty funny how the youngsters react to an “old dude” when they first arrive. 10 minutes in and the...

Affirmative. It’s in wonderful shape, but just ain’t getting use. I’ve got it all apart to detail the bejebus out of it and check all the bits. It’s a joy to work on, actually. Fun bike.

The top layer.

The both layers.

Make sure she traps both goofer tunnels. When you find a goofer hole, there are two tunnels leading away. Trap both, and it’s about 95%.
We also stuff the corpses back down the holes when we can.
...

Mine’s for sale.

I did ride about 14 miles on the push bike today, though. I did a 1/2 mile wheelie at one point, which is easy to figure with 1/4 mile long blocks. :)

Ugh. Not to get all whimsical, but I competed on a 20” Monty modified trials bike “back in the day”. I had roller cam brakes, but I wanted some Magura “rim crushers” badly.

We used to hit our rims...

Lots and lots of detail to add everywhere before paint. Because I have to paint it, now.

Ha! Very much the vibe, to be sure. The vision is a more utopian version of something similar, to be sure. Some manner of haphazardly assembled homes, interconnected, and interdependent.

The model...

He really was pulling a silly pose, too, and I think I captured the awkward stiffness. Hahaha.

We all have fond memories of that visit; especially me, because it got me out of Easter. I don’t mind...

Of course, if you want to see real stupid, check out Mimo Seedler.

I think my friend Tate is the king of stupid bike tricks, but I may be biased…

If you buy an electric car, they can’t steal your cat. :d

I’m assuming gophers?

What you need is a mastiff and a few nasty cats. When we moved here, I was trapping every day. Which, if you trap, put a trap in BOTH tunnels…

I don’t even know where my...

Meh. I still do okay with the wheelies. :)

Holy farts, he got the crayons!

Okay, this is super funny.

Dang. I got a couple pairs you could choose from…

Ugh. I gotta move… :)

I got to participate in lipsticking the mast. :)

Just remember when you add a light bar that you can’t ground to the trailer… ;)

Wait. You mean everyone doesn’t speak English?!

My buddy went to Taiwan after our theatrical tour to teach English for a year. Then he married a girl and had babies and he never came back. I...

I may have to post the photo to prove he really was pulling a goofy pose, standing like a 1950s robot. :)

This type of **** is why I keep hanging around posting pictures and making jokes around...

It ain’t all smooth and sandy around here, and a kayak ain’t exactly easy to board cleanly from shore without scraping or banging something. Around here that means scraping against granite...

I’m pretty sure he was wearing one under his shirt that whole time. :d Dude, you would have enjoyed this project. It was lots of thinking and staring. Good times. Good. Times,

I drew him fat, too. :D

115928
He’s right, you know?

The Easter Bunny and his friend Isaac.

Which is why I use cereal and cracker boxes. :D

I love making chimblies!

Flatterer.

More people have moved in. They all need roofs, and maybe some house paint?

Hao shiwu. Round cakes at a night market… Hen hao.

You mean seeded. That all happened eons ago, man.

It really hurts when you stop and think about it; some of those exploding stars may have made the metal inside us… so we may be looking at baby...

Yes! That’s the basic idea. Stacked houses. There may also be some “boats” in the final version, as well. :D

Honestly, I have given some thought to making the model complete, and selling the model...

When your hex keys get worn, you can recycle them into router plane blades. If they are the “ell” shaped type. ;)

Sun Yat Sen died too soon, or we’d remember him better, maybe? He was something.

The problem really came when I was shading a stacked up shape, like this. The problem is discerning which overhangs completely shade the stuff below, and which protrusions are in the light or no.

I don’t know what that accordion thing is, other than cool. I had never even imagined such a book existing, but it seems destined to be defiled by curlicues, so it may as well be me doing the dirty...

Been working on this, too. I need to get it done.

115822
This is with both layers. Pretty soon I’ll merge these into one, and add another blank layer on top. Then I can go to town on even...

I’ll let you know in 90”. Hahahaha.
