A small moment of gentleness in the middle of everything. 🐈⬛🤍
I put the images first and now I can't put the text above it :( Anyway here's some cool armored core stuff I drew on sticky notes before I got a new apple pencil.
I scrolled past this without second thought. Paused. Thought, wait, I've never seen a crane on the road. Scrolled back up. No answers. Typed this response, then noticed the book's author. What a whirlwind
Basically they bring it in piece by piece and assemble it on-site, using a smaller mobile crane (trucks with crane attachments) and once the crane itself is assembled, the top part can use hydraulics to climb up and down its own mast, so it builds itself taller like this
There is however no explanation for BJ Nomnom
If you're a longtime Spore enjoyer like myself, I'm sure you've seen these videos or others like them, where invisible limbs (either with vanilla glitches or from the Dark Injection mod) are utilized to make creatures that float above the ground, giving them the illusion that they're flying (or swimming).
But the most well-known, "tried and true" method has always felt a bit...
... janky.
This is achieved by attaching a single invisible limb to the front of the creature, which causes it to walk by hopping on that invisible leg. The single-legged walk cycle gives the appearance that the creature is flapping itself up and down, either flying with its wings or swimming by propelling its tail. The length and angle of the leg changes the stride, and in turn changes the speed of the "flight".
However, I'm not satisfied with my dragon being so floppy. It might work fine for some creatures, but the exaggerated animation is simply too exaggerated for my tastes.
So I've done some experimenting. The method I came up with a couple years ago isn't too different, but it has three feet instead of one.
This smoother motion is definitely an improvement, and it's what I use for most of my floaty creatures. Yet, I still wasn't satisfied with this dragon's flight. The tail still feels a bit too floppy, and it looks like it's leading with its chest rather than flying with its wings, as if it's being dragged along by something.
This design proved to be a winner! The wings look more like they're providing powered flight, and the floppiness level of the rear is more appropriate. The legs are a bit cumbersome, but since they're invisible limbs, they won't render when the creature is encountered in-game.
But as I was composing this post, I thought to myself...
can I make the wings truly flap?
The answer is yes, it can be done!
With another pair of invisible legs attached at the elbow joint of the wings, each with three feet, this dragon has truly taken flight! It certainly isn't perfect, but considering the capabilities and limits of Spore, I'd say it's pretty damn good.
The limb that creates the wing, the one which these new invisible legs are attached to, isn't just cosmetic--it's a fully functional wing limb from the Unshackled mod (check out my review of the mod here!). The wing limb provides the creature with the glide ability, complete with animation. Miraculously, even with these invisible legs attached, the wing limb animates exactly as it should. I really did not expect that.
So there you have it: a dragon in Spore that is fully capable of flight, both in animation and ability.
...I will say, it's deeply fascinating that the Spore community has basically re-created the sort of techniques practical effects folks would use for puppetry with wire removal/green-screen due to the limitations of their medium.
You work with Markiplier and he is a great motivator
The Color Game. “Humans can’t reliably recall colors. This is a simple game to see how good (or bad) you are at it. We’ll show you five colors, then you’ll try and recreate them.” I scored 39/50 but got a perfect score on one color.

a little self-indulgent comic :>
I used a class project to make a short comic about one of my favorite boys! I wish I had more time to finish it... I would have liked to dedicate more time to it
When the netherese orb in your chest ruins your love life for a SECOND time 🤣
Just a little art project I made for fun 😂😭
Honestly the last time I made a long form art like this for myself was in 2020, and damn, that’s a whole lot of characters I swear, I even had to cut down a few in the original list lol.

ANYWAY
ART COMMISSIONS CLOSED NOW
I made a template for that one scene in Gundam ZZ, to make it easy to replace the image in the frame. But honestly me accidentally deleting a file resulted in a far funnier outcome than anything I could have intentionally made with it.
