Forgot to share this ! The wonderful folks at @OfficialNewFurizons commissioned this from MarshMelloMedic on birdsite, and art for all the other DJs and their own mascot!

I'm DJing there 23rd Sept, along with a LOAD of other furry DJs! It's gonna be the biggest furry rave in the UK!

I tried to sand the rough priming and bits of the primer and filler just fell off, lol

I've put a fresh layer of a different brand of primer on and will see how that reacts tonight, then I guess I'll have to do some spot filling.

Since I got my Sony Anycast last year I've been looking for some kind of digital "VTR" solution for video playout; something that acts like a VCR that I can use to play videos. I've got a small DVD player with a USB port that is possible to use but I wanted something that I could make a custom control surface for.

It occurred to me yesterday that I could just use LibreElec/Kodi on a Raspberry Pi!

I got bored and decided to recreate the old BBC1 ident from the 80s. It's not as great as I would have liked (had some trouble trying to make the sphere transparent to see the other side, a la the original ident) but it's passable!

"WBC" stands for "Wolf Broadcasting Company" because I am very predictable.

re: selfie, eye contact 

I was gonna keep this one private but you know what, heck it; I actually like how I look in this photo (aside from the facial hair, haha)

Xenia's in the rack! Unfortunately she's not appearing on the network so have to take her out of it tonight and find out why that is. X)

(The machine with Celestia's cutie mark on it is called "celestia" and she's our NAS. @BridleTimeout put her together. :) )

selfie, eye contact 

Bad brain kept me from shaving today but wanted to feel slinky so please see a photo of me wearing some very nerdy spandex.

This is something I love doing; getting old art (on the left) updated to show who I am nowadays (on the right)! It makes me feel so happy to see myself reflected in artwork! πŸ’œ
This is me dressed as a "Quantron" from "Power Rangers In Space". The cloak and hood is an original addition.

eye contact but selfie about good identity feels 

I tried hair mousse for the first time this morning. I want sure how it would turn out but wow I almost had a cry because right now just before bed it doesn't look gross and lifeless like it normally does... I actually like how it looks!!

Update to my Dark Knight (from Incredible Games) helmet!

All primed, needs a quick sand once it's cured, and then it's time for the black paint!!

Decided on which patterns that I want to use for my Tali ! I've not yet decided on what type of fabric I want to use, but the pique fabric in the left photo is pretty good!

Definitely want to get myself a new patrol cap, in either purple or black, but super happy for my QVP mask that I had to take a selfie while at work. πŸ’›πŸ’œ

I've always wondered what these plates are for. There's quite a few of them in Bradford city centre.

However I've just worked out, while writing this toot, that they point to Bradford's two central rail stations; Forster Square and the Interchange.

I don't recall seeing these anywhere else! Surely they do appear in other cities?

Brain has decided that I'm gonna fart about with a TNC this weekend, an AEA PK-232MBX. I've got two, had them for a while, but kept blanking on getting the tools to make it usable. I now have said tools to make up the required cables. :>

BLTouch sensor and dual gear extruder fitted! Also set up Debian on an old thin client to be the local access point for Octoprint, and maybe for other things too!

Haven't got everything for the printer BUT I have fitted a string of LEDs to the top of the printer enclosure frame for some light inside it, and strapped a webcam to the top so I can keep an eye on prints using OctoPrint!
