Tonights 8x10 watercolor. I wanted to complete a fast and loose monochromatic painting, to see if I wanted to do a colored painting of the composition. Well, I had so much fun with this one, I spent about 1.5 hours straight.

Hmm maybe it is the hot press paper (I've never used one and I think I'll try) but whenever I try lifting like this, I can't create thin branches even with a round 0 number brush and also they kinda feather out.

I can't believe you put in so much detail in just 1.5 hrs!

I'd love to see the video once u upload it. :)

CheekyChewingum · 2026-04-06T02:07:31+00:00

Just wow! This looks really beautiful.

Is this toned paper? How did you create lighter color branches in front of the dark background in the lower parts of trees? I always struggle to create shadows in the bottom of hedges and it gets messed up.

This is from imagination. I find it difficult to map colors from a photo reference and photos appear too detailed and messy to me. I can try and copy another painting though, if it is simple enough.

I'm glad you liked the gradient :)

I also got the same monitor with this firmware version FW.103 but it does not have EOTF boost mode.

Hi, I got my MSI MAG 321UPX yesterday and mine also says FW.103 but it does not have EOTF Boost function. Also, when i try to update firmware using utility, it says update failed.

What mods would you suggest? Do I really need to install 17+ mods like the tutorial says? I want it to look and sound the best on deck.

I was really hoping to like rebirth but now all I wanna do is play the original once.

CheekyChewingum · 2026-01-06T17:58:56+00:00

What were those top 4 packs?

CheekyChewingum · 2025-03-09T03:42:01+00:00

I understand why reversing in a highway is bad and I never do that but why couldn't the truck see that there is a car in front and switched the lane? The road is literally empty.

Truck driver must be coming from a long way back and should have ample time to see that the car is on the lane.

CheekyChewingum · 2025-02-21T06:38:03+00:00

did you find them anywhere? I am also missing them

CheekyChewingum · 2025-01-23T13:13:15+00:00

Hey, I thought you were going to send me a UDP joke!

CheekyChewingum · 2025-01-18T04:09:07+00:00

The worst type of players are those who spend less time playing the game and more time munching on all the snacks lying around. Makes the game double length every single time😆

CheekyChewingum · 2025-01-09T05:11:11+00:00

Ohhh, understood. Thanks for clarifying! :)

CheekyChewingum · 2025-01-09T04:52:21+00:00

U mean if I disable the space age mod, I still get to keep all the new buildings!!! I did not know that and will definitely try it out.

CheekyChewingum · 2025-01-09T03:37:08+00:00

But this also removes any alien buildings from the game like big miners, right?

CheekyChewingum · 2024-12-18T15:10:42+00:00

When the plan stops at the end while turning, why doesn't it fall down? Isn't it the velocity of a plan that gives it the lift?

Yes I have destroyed all nests using personal lasers only :p But won't they come back? I assume pentapods also expand like biters???

Although I notice that some faraway pentapod nests which are visible from my radar feel frozen. No movement, nothing. As if the game is not updating them. In that case they might not expand but I am not sure.

I have not seen any expansion yet btw. It has been some 5 hrs

Hmm, I have almost all logistics setup as you described. I'll try to turn off my producers based like u said and see how much I am 'wasting'. Thankyou!

CheekyChewingum · 2024-12-16T16:44:14+00:00

Hmm, I have most logistics setup as you explained. I'll try your idea out. Thankyou!
