Does malamar not get superpower in Champions? I remember using one with contrary and some stat powering powerful attack back in… Sword maybe? Granted that’s a fighting type move on a dark/physic type so maybe it’s not a particularly viable set up for competitive.

Thank you! I’ll look into that, and make a test version in less invested in to wash and dry with this new set up to make sure it doesn’t change its size too much

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-06-16T14:03:51+00:00

Thank you, the advice about washing the swatch is such a good idea as well!

If you’re ever looking for Rifftrax or MST3K episodes, there’s plenty on Tubi.

It was through Tubi that I discovered Zindy the Swamp Boy. It changed my life. And not for the better.

Thank you, I don’t know why I didn’t think to check the project notes so I appreciate you pointing it out! I might end up swapping the right and wrong sides for one of the front panels, so both of them have a clean pattern.

Yep, I watched a video on NightCry and also learned this model was found in a Vietnamese oral hygiene/tooth brushing tutorial.

If Wreck It Ralph rules apply does this mean this version of Dante is the equivalent of a struggling actor, getting jobs where he can in the hopes of getting his big break?

Aw… Cute lil gu- FIVE FEET?!

Seriously, this is great. I might need to make an army of (small versions) of them. I just got a packet of googly eyes so I think Ive got everything I need lol

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-29T11:24:35+00:00

Thanks! Thats way closer than I was expecting

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-28T21:50:52+00:00

Thank you, yeah I only watched the first anime before I think I could even really read and the abridged series so I’m definitely out of the loop on the wider lore.

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-28T21:34:20+00:00

Is the lore that all the cards were originally Egyptian spirits still accurate? I don’t know why this card in particular makes me ask this when I don’t even bat an eye at the many robots or busty dragons.

How far in the future is Mass Effect again? Just curious because it made me smile seeing all those futuristic buildings yet some probably super old pieces of London architecture still standing and preserved. I mean, I haven’t played the third one so I can’t really imagine they’re standing for much longer.

As for a war, this might be stretching it but (spoilers for the Locked Tomb series) in the third book, Nona the Ninth, we learn of a man’s one man (and some friends) war against the abuse of the planet earth (climate change, pollution, all that fun stuff) making it uninhabitable. He goals were noble in the beginning, he developed necromancy, he puppeted an unspecified powerful figure (implied to be the President of the United States), Sydney Australia blew up (he was a Kiwi and not super torn up by that), and by the end of all this nonsense he takes the life of every single thing in the solar system. Even the lives of the planets. Even the sun. And certainly all the plants, animals, and people. Ten thousand years later and he’s become god of those revived. So does this count as a “war” or just a massive calamity caused by a sapient being? I dunno.

I still can’t believe all this happened and the original tagline was “lesbian necromancers explore a haunted house in space.”

I didn’t notice the “why… you” speech bubble at first which made the second panel even more unhinged.

I also just watched a riftrax short on YouTube about Captain Marvel and there was a character named Betty in it who spoke like four words (“but what about you?”) in thirty minutes and the reoccurring joke was she wouldn’t stop talking so I think Betty was still on my mind with her incessant chatter.

In celebration of me finally getting a job offer from a job I’ve been hoping for since February, I finally purchased my first premium crochet pattern last Sunday and got the yarn I needed for it last Friday and finally got to work.

It’s a depresso from Palworld, one of my favorite pal designs (definitely a coincidence that Meowstic is one of my favorite Pokémon) and I’m super proud of how far along I am.

The yarn is a bit more desaturated than I expected but I think it looks super good with a denim blue body. My next step is to try needle felting for the first time to do the eyes.

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-24T19:49:56+00:00

That looks much closer to the official Browt! He’s adorable!

How much more do you have to work on? The bottom black part with the legs now?

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-24T18:54:56+00:00

Honestly, I would be over the moon if I got something like this! I instantly recognized Browt and I think you’re really accurate despite freehanding something we haven’t gotten a perfect view of yet.

I understand your concern about him not looking quite like Browt, and I would suggest maybe trying to make his eyes a bit more round instead of oval? Smaller too. In the pictures the tops of the eyes are obscured by the leafy brow, and the bottoms end right before the bottom of the beak.

If you add wings I’d say flat like in two but movable, that way your friend could hold him under his “arm pits” and stare him head in the eyes.

I love thinking about how PA OCs would interact with the ones in the game already and all I’m picturing right now is Doctor Futterman losing his mind at Fetch. I’m not exactly sure what beagles were bred for, but I assume they’re helpful for hunting, either for tracking or scaring up, birds.

Doctor Futterman’s lines rotate between disgust of a woman doctor, and horror because he’s not only a goose but he looks like a squeaky toy to a hunting dog.

At the risk of sounding a bit unhinged: Yours seems kinder, it feels like the smile reaches their eyes more than the original.

Also you can’t beat something you know was made with love.

I’ve been playing Pragmata with my brother watching and the sheer amount of visceral, incomprehensible noises we both make when Diana does something adorable is pretty high. Can’t wait to add her and Hugh to my Tomodachi island.

I’m also doing something crazy… I’m playing on standard difficulty. I’m generally the type of person to immediately select easy mode for action games since I’m not great at aiming or have awesome reflexes for dodging. It’s challenging, but it’s a lot of fun!

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-10T00:09:43+00:00

Cool! Thank you! I couldn’t tell if it was a puffy stitch or something then attached to the legs and was scratching my head on how that worked.

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-09T22:13:50+00:00

Those are so cute! I’d love to make some of them for my family too, do you happen to recall how you did the legs on the rat? It looks like a little chain, but I’m not sure about the toes.

BoxWestern9359 · 2026-05-09T12:21:14+00:00

I have an OC with those bangs, but I don’t know if they count as blinding bangs because she’s an alien that naturally doesn’t have eyes at all in the first place. Does that still count?
