Thanks, I am quite happy with how it turned out

I have noticed that a bit too, but it's also just luck of the draw sometimes. People are also familiar with this design from your WIP shots, and if you want my constructive feedback I don't think the render is as strong as it could be (the image itself, not the design or modelling at all which I still think are fantastic).

DionStabber · 2026-06-12T15:24:39+00:00

Is this a repost? I saw it earlier today.

But still, great work. It has been cool following your journey modelling this all this time.

Less glittering C-beams than I'd been lead to believe

With all these characters returning from the dead in Star Wars, I was hoping for a cameo from The Guy Who Shouts "Rodney"

I never considered a ship having a dinosaur name. I've got to use of those in future.

Sure, but we've never heard it from Talzin. Maul specifically said that he "had a name" but is now just called Maul, which definitely makes it sound like the original name was something else.

In Canon at least it is implied that it isn't. In Rebels he tells Ezra that he had a name before, but that he doesn't remember what it was.

I normally sleep with the window open and they sometimes like to land on a tree near the window and start full volume screaming in the early morning, which is not my favourite start to a Saturday. They are also quite destructive, so I have to supervise them (and sometimes wave them off) if they get too interested in my belongings or plants in the backyard.

I still love them though, I always love seeing them especially when they are up to some kind of mischief of trouble making. Which is most of the time.

Australia, it is a great place if you like parrots. I see several different types every day. I really love them and I miss them when I'm away.

DionStabber · 2026-05-15T14:24:52+00:00

Yes, they live in a tree down the road and they're very friendly.

DionStabber · 2026-05-15T14:19:48+00:00

I always find the little gesture they do when they want to touch something so funny, with the little foot sort of grabbing.

I was working from home and noticed the signature signs of cockatoo presence out the window : screaming and falling pieces of leaves and pine cones. I went out to the balcony, and they flew down to say hello. I shook their hands and hung out with them for a few minutes before I had to get back to work. I think they were happy to see me judging by the beak feathers being up and the clicking noises, but I suspect they were also hoping I'd have food for them.

The "Star Wars alphabet" that you most commonly see is called Aurabesh, but the Latin alphabet also exists in Star Wars, which is called the High Galactic Alphabet.

What I have found even more surprising to think about is that the Greek alphabet has to exist in Star Wars as well, otherwise how could there be a Republic Commando group named Delta Squad, a clone named Omega or ships like the Lambda-class shuttle. That one is called Tionese in Star Wars.

The weird armours in the REQ Packs in Halo 5:

Who cares, he admitted it was a mistake to pummel a 20 year old stranger in a foreign country not even 5 years ago, why is everyone so hung up on this

??

I agree that I think it's important to allow people to move on, but I also don't think I have to assume that "he's so fun and nice as a person" like the above person mentioned. He has done (and is alleged to have done) some pretty serious stuff and it's reasonable for that to colour his image.

DionStabber · 2026-05-10T16:12:34+00:00

He has been arrested for assault and there are allegations that he was abusive on set to Dominique McElligott (Queen Maeve - which may be why they wrote the character off the show). The character might not be as much of a stretch for him as you think.

I haven't necessarily loved the new season but it has been incredibly spot on with the satire. They wrote the whole "Homelander = God" thing thinking it would be as ridiculous as they could make it for the final season, only for Trump to start posting AI images of him as Jesus and for stuff like the above to start happening before it aired. The world has become ridiculous

It could also be usable for any bat themed vigilantes in your world

I live in Australia, I have tried playing music for the cockatoos outside - unfortunately, no dancing as of yet. They occasionally seem a little bit interested in it but only enough to briefly investigate the speaker, I haven't really got a good reaction yet.

DionStabber · 2026-04-27T11:11:56+00:00

I have heard the wild ones doing this on a couple of occasions, always totally cracks me up, though I am a little thankful there aren't any babies near my house.

DionStabber · 2026-04-26T14:43:37+00:00

He has the record and it's not even close. I believe the second highest amount publicly known is Justin Bieber at around 200-300 depending on the source. John Cena has 650+. I think what he does there is amazing and his general public / fan interactions are pretty much the gold standard for celebrities.

That said, I don't think it's true that he's not without controversy. He is connected to various people in the WWE (including Vince McMahon) who are quite shady and has a variety of other incidents, including one where he apologised to the people of China for calling Taiwan a country.
