What is the secret to getting an Anycubic Kobra X to print out in four colors? My multi-colored test prints are mired in all coming out in one color.

Resin test fit prints. 1/120th scale Astradyne from Captain Saucer and Stellomatic from InterStellar Overdrive with "Twinkles" and a generic battle babe as a placeholder for Flexia. 1/56th scale Zed with another faux Flexia. I'm going to print bigger models when I have access to a bigger printer.

Clones of the Uni-Bird and Hercules showing some family resemblance. Twice over. They're both Centuri "birds" from circa '70. Also Grandpa Skow had both Allis-Chalmers and New Holland dealerships back in the day....

Is anything like that available in Omaha?

Since I'm being sopped with some January in March, I've been working on some little rocketry odds and ends this afternoon. One of the little projects was altering a decal for a Centuri Screaming Eagle clone. BTW, the rocket itself is going to be orange. creme, and black... Imagine that....

I was wondering if a lot of American Monty Python fans were of a certain age, say Generation Jones types watching something completely different to help keep their brains alive during dreary high school days with a lot of middle Boomers and older Gen X on either side?

Had too much fun putting the decals on this classic.

A 3D printer-friendly recreation of of the Centuri PNC-89, the knockoff of the old MPC/AVI Mercury/Moon-Go space capsule with added on retrorocket pack improved by adding vent holes through the pretend nozzles of the main retros, and friend....

Daydreaming in 3D resin about Holverson Designs PNCs including a few appropriated from Centuri. Recreations of Centuri Fighter Fleet parts, a side project, and a recreation of the MPC/AVI Mercury space capsule. The Mercury capsule was modified with a retro that has a hole to accept an eye-screw.

A recreation parts set plus an original nozzle for the Centuri Orion (my all time favorite model rocket) and what an Holverson Designs/Fun Rockets display stand would have looked like if things had turned out differently, both printed in resin, plus a big filament printed side project for a friend.

MPC Moon-Go parts and Centuri Fighter Fleet parts recreated and resin printed. Plus what a Holverson Designs Tangent PNC would look like if I didn't have such wonky luck.

Resin printed nose cones of my own design for the Semroc Baby Orion and finally a good print of my recreation of the old MPC/AVI/Quest dress up kits with a PNC15 thrown in there for good measure.

Aviation STEM day at the Oak View Mall last Saturday.

Twinkle! :3

I'm amused that they live in a bounce house. That use to be my favorite thing at the carnival back when I was a tween in the '70s.

Hoping that Merry inflates even bigger. Although she ain't bad now....

I found this curio in the basement while trying to organize it this morning. It's an Omaha Rocket Club banner from the early days of the group during the BAR summer of '94 before they merged with the local Tripoli prefecture and became THOR. It's a hand-me-down from John Carroll when he moved away.

I worked up a second vanity plate while the Yiynova is busticated.

I designed a new Holverson Designs nosecone this afternoon on a whim, the PNC14028, a double length parabola for the BT-5. Even if it's nearly 30years late to do the company much good....

Are yuppies watching the Super Bowl for all those supposedly dazzling commercials still a dealie?

I got the old Yiynova to work on the newest Mac this afternoon.

I'm trying to do the recommended Darren T OpenToonz tutorial on YouTube but I'm stuck before I even start. My workspace is really different than his. I don't have the wonderful horizantal Timelind to click on and can't find how to set it up. I did find the Command Bar but it won't let me move it.

2/ Still burning off frustration over the animatics and not getting any help.

1/ Another visual portmanteau pun. I call this one the "Fire Hawk". It's with two great defunct performance cars from two great defunct car companies. I've been toying with this idea since high school. This is the first attempt where I've pulled it off.

3/This reminds me of why you haven't seen 3D printable actions figures of Flexia and friends for the past 12 years because the Poser and DAZ are impossibly awful and I'm trying to do this alone with no help.

2/I did this because the animatic is stalled again possibly until later to never. I started a tutorial on the software and immediately stalled out because my workspace doesn't look like his and I don't see any of the buttons that he's clicking on.

1/A little icon the I made up for "Skill Lever #6: Specially; RC Experience Required!" for a hypothetical Caliby kit-card. I wouldn't be surprised if this visual pun was done before, maybe back in the '70s give or take a decade.

first year without mom Today is one year after my Mom, Barb Holverson, dying at 93 years old. Barb was a Depression child born in 1931. She was one of three children born to Wilber and Marie Skow. Grandpa ran a Standard Oil...

Mom passed away one year ago today.

Work in progress. About all I can stand for today. See if you can find a little creator's provincialism...

I hated them back when, and because, I was a Mac fanboi back in the Beleaguered '90s.
