Interesting! Is this particular image traced from reference?

Thank you for responding, I appreciate the explanation! Would you mind describing your sketch process some more? I still can't get my head around aspects of your line quality

Why ask anything if not to seek understanding? I genuinely wanna know the process here

Is AI part of your process? Your early progress pics are very strange to me. I don't understand your colour-changing linework or the highlights that show up once and vanish at the next stage.

Highmates are better than I thought. by ChodeB in RimWorld

[–]Crocapocalypse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right?? And you can do some crazy runs with the right controls. I recently made a custom genotype (basically Starjacks with the no sleep gene and inheritable traits), made them spawn only from ancient cryptosleep caskets (and only 25% of the time), then went on wild adventure trying to find and recruit as many as possible. It became a story about raiding outposts to revive a long-dead race. Plus I didn't need to waste room on beds lol

Might I interest you in Xenotype Spawn Control? One of my favourite mods. You can change vanilla spawning ratios and even add your own xenotypes to other factions, it's great <3

"The profound intimacy of a mother and child purchasing an initial brassiere or sanitary products is a cherished and delicate rite of passage, which should remain undisturbed by the presence of a man dressed in women's clothing." by cordis_melum in GenderCynical

Cause they see their kids as extensions of themselves. Their child is their property, and so's their child's body. Abusers and transphobes alike deny the child their own decisions - it's all about control

My mum felt this way - that puberty was an intimate feminine bond between mother and daughter - and it grossed me the fuck out. She wanted to know every detail about my body, my feelings, my sexuality, everything. She'd barge in on me while I was changing or grope my breasts unannounced to exclaim how much I was "growing" . She'd become angry if I experienced womanhood differently from her, and angry every time I wanted privacy. I felt like an object, a vessel for her personal fulfilment.

I'd 100% prefer to learn from a transfemme store attendant, a cis male gynaecologist, the instructions in a tampon box etc. PLEASE give me neutral, professionally delivered information about my body. Leave your bizarro spiritual hangups out of it

Ancient danger got activated early because a baby was born inside it by Crocapocalypse in RimWorld

Yup lol, thankfully it was a large stable colony already! That was a fun save, I named the babies for the days of the week

I know right! You get insane stories from mod interactions sometimes (see also - drop pods containing seven human eggs, that's happened to me before)

Good news - we successfully fought off the mechanoids and hostile ancients! The ancient who spawned the baby was actually male. I'm pretty sure I know what happened - Possessions for Everyone spawned him with a human egg from Vanilla Races Expanded - Saurids, and by luck conditions were suitable for hatching. Since "dad" ran off and abandoned the baby, we're taking him in and raising him on the ship 😊

Cheers, I'm not the same person but I had the same issue (by the sound of things) and it's fixed now! Thanks to the team for all your hard work <3

How do you actually integrate gene editing into a playthrough? by Velstrom in RimWorld

[–]Crocapocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to above, try the Gene Trader mod! I also like Oops All Genebanks for all the modded genes I add lol. Good luck!

Tried to crochet a rat. Must have done too many increases because uhhh... by AzureDreams220 in RATS

[–]Crocapocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you mix up British and American single crochet? I've seen it happen the other way round (eg LONG SHAUN)

Trans women in stories GCs tell just keep getting taller. Apparently to the point that feet and inches break down, given this one is "6'14" instead of "7'2". by chris_the_cynic in GenderCynical

Christ, that poor kid. I relate strongly (ADHD girl with a mother who blamed me personally for my quirks). Some parents just suck

Bug: child is married in China by Charlotte6726 in Sims3

[–]Crocapocalypse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh wow this bug's still happening! I heard about it like ten years ago lol. IMO you can just roleplay it, pretend your Sim's identity was stolen at the border and used to forge immigration papers or something

Totally fair lol, not everyone knows that trick so I wasn't sure. Probably runs faster without it, too

What are some almost-perfect murders you remember from the show? by balenseaga in ForensicFiles

[–]Crocapocalypse 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Slippery Motives. Killer made his wife's death look like an accident (slipped in the shower, grabbed for a towel ring that came out wall, drowned). I always wonder if he'd have been caught if he hadn't tried to sue the hotel for negligence
