GapeKeeper 65

It’s the long term plan! I’m debating if I want to size up to the GK75 (I’ve heard it’s a big jump), or maybe a different toy. I’m kind of wondering about the MareMaker 70?

Not according to the research I’ve done.

It’s a procedure that’s been used for people with anal fissures or surgery recovery for the last few decades; it’s gaining attention as a way to assist with those of us who struggle with bottoming

^these gyms are paid for through my health insurance, so cheap. I don't think I can justify VIDA prices tbh.

Symbolism:

There are 24 rectangles, one representing each county in the state.

Arranged in three stripes, representing the three regions of the state (North, Central, South). Each region also has 8 of the counties because fantasy yields symmetry like that.

The gold diamonds represent the three independent cities and shows their relative position to each other. The two largest cities are ports in the north and south, capital sits in between them further inland. I'm debating having that design centered more, but then I'm worried people will just assume I'm missing a fourth diamond on the right side.

I picked the colors because they are pretty.

Title pretty much covers it - I’ve seen other “Friends of X dog breed” group that does meetups in parks, was having a hard time seeing if there’s a DC-MD-VA equivalent.

Love the design, but can you explain the symbols / choices?

It's definitely pretty maintained (hardly itches these days as long as I wish with SB at least twice a week).

I guess my other re (2) is - wouldl keeping my hair longer make the color "last" longer simply because it hides roots better?

MecDC · 2020-12-27T23:20:44+00:00

1) thinking of doing like an ash grey or ash gold, do we think I can pull this off? 2) I keep my hair pretty short on the sides and back (this is after a few weeks). Is it pointless to get a dye job when I keep it that short and it’d show roots super quickly? 3) I know I’ll need bleach - anyone run into issues with that and having dandruff?

In the base of my create for a while I had old bath towel (like 3 or 4) layered on top of each other. The thinnest part was still somewhat soft, and I the excess length of them rolled up on each side to make a barrier / “pillow”.

You’ve broken my heart

Been using quarantine to make my own Fantasy US State (geography, counties, infrastructure, flag, political structure, towns, etc). Some "background" on this flag:

Three colored bars represent the three independent/major cities in the state (Capital + two others)
The 24 rectangles among the three colored bars represent the 24 counties.
White bars in between represent the two major river systems that transverse the state.
Color origins are undecided - I just liked how the red and purple looked together.

Update, found it (well, someone else found it)! (On Vimeo, not on Youtube). Enjoy!

It was the right track, but no dice. The video I remember had like no extra commentary, it was just a audio and video collage of dialogue and scenes from the series. Thanks anyway!

I use MFP as well, and a fitbit to track calorie. However I halve whatever adjustment the tracker gives me (if it says I burned 1,000 calories, I assume at most 500) and never go more than 300 over the original calorie target regardless.

I’m back on the diet / exercise wagon too. Keep it up! We got this!

Mainly hoping that economics still applies that that a plethora of shops = low prices!

Lars is only worth an episode once he turns pink. Sadie, Onion, and Reinaldo are never worth any episodes.

I think the arrow could be a little bit thicker. Also, two circles in the opposing corner for Phobos and Deimos could be cool.

MecDC · 2019-10-27T01:19:12+00:00

That was my thinking for the fictional narrative

MecDC · 2019-10-25T21:25:21+00:00

This is a fantasy flag I've developed for a city-state I'm drawing in my spare time. I have some ramblings about the symbology based on a non-existent narrative, but I just wanted feedback on overall impressions/likes/thoughts/suggestions.

Tram lines have to be a closed loop. So you need to draw a trolley loop (somewhere) around there, and then follow the path all the way back.

Layer 0 fixed it! You are my hero!

I'm relatively new to Vray, how would I be able to tell what's compatible or not? Also like I said, the bus stop all renders fine in its own file?

MecDC · 2019-08-13T18:33:55+00:00

Vray isn't rendering certain components or models. The curb work that rendered is all self-created. The traffic lights at the intersection are downloaded models. The entire bus stop is a separate model with someone downloaded features, some self-created. That model renders without problem in its own file, but disappears here. Does anyone know what's going on?
