Updating #Windows

This may be my last transmission.

I think this means I draw the underlying map first, then export the buildings/tents as individual objects.

We'll see how it goes.

Currently playing around with indoor locations for an outdoor map in #Inkarnate

I want to take advantage of Roll20's reveal functionality (which let's you show the interior of a building as the PCs enter it).

BUT ... this is why we've adventured in #Greyhawk for 30 years. Most of the campaign setting *is not* documented.

Sure, it's nice when you can pull out a source book that details a particular place, but it's also great to just freestyle and create your own iteration of a location.

Watching #TheBoys and futzing about with my #Greyhawk76 campaign.

Specifically, building out Greysmere, which has scant canon documentation.

The Great Library of Greyhawk summarizes it thusly:
greyhawkonline.com/greyhawkwiki...

It's good to know I can make the exact same copy/paste errors i've always made in a new programming language.

Listening to #OU812 by #VanHalen and mucking about with Python to pull together myriad data files for a report.

I also tried doing this in PowerBI earlier, but that hurt my brain. And would have forced me to read documentation.

This way is ... better.

A view of the hex map of Catan island. Resource cards appear in the foreground.

Playing #SettlersOfCatan in the real world for the first time in … I don’t know how many years. #BoardGames

Watching #AlienResurrection (the extended edition, which I'm not sure if I've seen) and painting RPG minis. #TTRPG

A TV screen shows “Sigourney Weaver”. An RPG mini painting setup appears in the foreground (cardboard, mini, palette, brushes)

Watching #Alien3AssemblyCut (seen the cinematic version, never this one) and painting minis.

Also trying out my new wet palette, which is another first.

Watching #ConanTheBarbarian and working on my #Shadowdark campaign.

In the campaign, the adventurers are making their way south through Kolsvartskog ("The Coal Black Wood") on their way to the trade town of Vården.

So ... time for random encounters!

Continuing my new morning tradition of watching the Space Battleship Yamato remake. Also working with #Roll20 reactions to do some cool stuff with my #Shadowdark encounters.

"There are 310 days left before the extinction of the human race." #SpaceBattleshipYamato2199

In retrospect, #StarBlazers / #SpaceBattleshipYamato2199 may be why I enjoy naval fiction (e.g. #MasterAndCommander #TheLostFleet) so much.

Is this a metaphor for life? Probably.

12-year-old me is freaking out that I broke the minis. 54-year-old me is still a little freaked out … but has way more experience putting things back together.

Doing minor surgery on the minis, after breaking off one foot each from two of the minis.

They’re fine. Nothing a little plastic model cement won’t fix.

Several plastic minis and a metal one appear in the foreground. In the background is the title sequence of Conan the Barbarian.

Assembling minis. My spiffy new copy of the #ConanTheBarbarian Blu-Ray is on in the background.

“Let me tell you of times of high adventure!”

Watching #PredatorBadlands and loving it for oh so many reasons (which I will not go into now).

I'm sure I'm not the only child of the 80s who held their breath until #Integrity made it past the 73 second mark in their flight.

Beautiful launch. Looking forward to all the great views to come. #ArtemisII

"Skip intro", Crunchyroll?

Who could skip the intro of #SpaceBattleshipYamato2199 and miss that awesome theme song?

Madness!

It's game day! We're continuing our MegaCrawl dungeon adventure, and are currently fighting a white dragon.

It does not appear to be happy to see us.

#DnD #GameDay #TTRPG

Good morning. Time for some more #SpaceBattleshipYamato2199 and @lairofsecrets.bsky.social editing.

Time for #PredatorBadlands and some #Shadowdark campaign work.

Organizing my RPG map files (which are a total mess at this point). I've got #DareDevilReborn Season 2 on in the background.

Need to get focused. Firing up #VanHalen #5150

BBEdit document total: 0

Woot.

It's a kinda chill, rainy March day. Listening to #BillyJoel and working on annual reviews.

A space battleship, with a ruined red and white earth in the background.

"There are 363 days left until the extinction of the human race."

#SpaceBattleshipYamato2199

Taking a few days off to recharge. Finally completed #Spiderman2 for #PS5 -- I put it down a year or two ago, and never got back to it.

I'm glad I did; it scratches that web-swinging itch I occasionally get.

Proud to be the 1,157th 😎 on BackerKit for #DarkSpace - Sci-Fi Rules for #Shadowdark.

(yes, this means I finally realized I needed to fill out the frakking backerkit survey)
