Character busts are open!

I’ll be taking three slots, any beyond that will go on a waiting list. Roughs will be sent within two weeks of receiving payment, finals within two weeks after roughs are approved. More than one image can be commissioned at the same time, but please be aware that orders of more than three images may have a longer turnaround time.

Feel free to dm me with any questions you may have!

Reina del Cid is one of my favorite musicians. Her YouTube has some amazing covers.

But this Star Trek engineering rap is just delightful.

Reina’s Instagram

When I first scrolled down and saw a subtitled video, I idly watched it without turning on the sound or reading the description below.

Then afterward, I realize it was rap and scrolled back up to listen to it properly. It’s amazing.

Help save mature forests in the US

Note: this is not one of those “click here and say I AGREE or I DISAGREE” comment options. They’re looking for multifaceted feedback.

The USDA Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management, DOI, are seeking input on the development of a definition for old-growth and mature forests on Federal land, and are specifically requesting input on the following questions:

  • What criteria are needed for a universal definition framework that motivates mature and old-growth forest conservation and can be used for planning and adaptive management?
  • What are the overarching old-growth and mature forest characteristics that belong in a definition framework?
  • How can a definition reflect changes based on disturbance and variation in forest type/composition, climate, site productivity and geographic region?
  • How can a definition be durable but also accommodate and reflect changes in climate and forest composition?
  • What, if any, forest characteristics should a definition exclude?

LUCKY 13 BY SOOZAFONE

Lucky 13 is a completely FREE 3d print file available on Printables by Soozafone! If you have access to a 3d printer or can get someone ro print it for you, I 1000% recommend it!

Lucky has the same amount if not more articulation than most artist mannequins and is SO MUCH CHEAPER. While filament is expensive, I was able to print mine at my university’s print lab for 13$. 13!$!!!

This figure is comparable to the Armature 9 models, and in my opinion, BETTER just because of the customizability and free print use! Im currently working on making dragon wings for mine.

Lucky comes with the armature, skin, a stand, 8 different hand poses, and several accessories, but the community has HUNDREDS of remixes and new additions custom made for this little guy.

And the best part is, is that the creator, Soozafone, is ALREADY working on a version 2!! Check him out on reddit at r/Soozafone!

I am so in love with my own figure and am so excited to see all the new updates. If you’re looking for pose reference but dont want to fork over hundreds on a figure, PLEASE! Check out Lucky 13!

Here’s the link to the Printables page:

I literally cant recommend this figure enough, Im already planning on printing a few more because I love it so much.

I hope this gives all the other artists a fun little project, because I certainly had a blast putting mine together!

Happy printing!!
