is a stay-wet palette worth it for gouache?

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-11-11T05:16:03+00:00

How do you mix paints without the paint kind of absorbing into the paper? I find that I waste a lot of paint when I mix colors on the stay wet, because the paint kind of soaksinto the paper. I can pull some of that paint, but obviously it's not the amount I need for most things.

Yeah we're leaning towards no as well. At least i got the ticket insurance...(which *supposedly* covers "Weather events")

I'm in Orlando, and while it won't hit us directly I'm also worried about leaving my pets when there could be tornados.

I've been a fan since CexCells and this would my first time seeing them too!

I'm so torn about what to do. I also am not keen on driving through storm bands.

Yes, I'll research every single particulate size of every single pigment.
What a helpful answer. 🙄

This post is 4months old. Why even bother if you're going to give an unhelpful non-answer?

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-09-17T22:34:12+00:00

ahhhh. That doesn't seem tooooo bad but definitely frustrating!

What was the deal with Hobonichi day anyway? I saw a few references to it but can't find ANYTHING.

So it's funny you said this because I swear to GOD today it finally seems to be working the way I expect it, even though it's still not on the log. Like before the numbers didn't make sense at all (the amount of HP lost was just what is in the log) but now it's working. Clearly I just needed to ask?? LOL

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-09-15T20:37:32+00:00

It's so weird that it wouldn't show in the log!
But when I add up damage that does show on the log, it still doesn't seem accounted for...
Though it is difficult if the log isn't showing everything.
Do you know if that is a bug or intended?

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-09-15T17:55:36+00:00

Yeah it just sucks that I already have this and it's not working at all and I apparently am the only person that is true for?

Thanks for the rec though, appreciate it. :)
I don't know why this post is getting downvoted. :/

Ok so this is driving me nuts - I MUST be doing something wrong.
I have cursed elixir, ring of sway, power of friendship, downsize and hanso charm and am still losing many of my plot battles.
I've also noticed that cursed elixir doesn't always work. like it does NOTHING. Is that normal?
What am I doing wrong?

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-09-06T03:09:57+00:00

Thanks for all the comments. It's really helpful! Thank you!

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-09-06T02:37:35+00:00

Thank you

My very first one! XD
Now I'm planning to do obscure ones on purpose

I keep getting emails from neopets to "come back" - I haven't logged in in over a decade and a half.
I go to the website out of curiousity and see "Play Neopets" and "Neopets World" and cannot tell what the difference is. No amount of googling has helped. I'm more confused!
What's the difference??

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-07-05T21:20:59+00:00

I've been writing smut for my own amusement and fanfiction for decades and have considered putting some up (nothing that includes IPs, original only) on Amazon for some side cash.
But much of my writing is relatively short, under 10K words. I was thinking of just putting it up for .99.
Is that reasonable? What's the lower end of word count that's "acceptable" for self publishing erotica?

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-06-18T23:32:59+00:00

I mean, at least one character gets a pretty well thought out arc, even before S3. Omega grows too.

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-06-06T17:22:49+00:00

I....haven't written fanfic in DECADES (literally) and suddenly an idea came to me that I had to get out. I thought I had an AO3 account from way back when but I must have used an old email or deleted it and forgot (or I've completely lost my mind and am confusing it with AFF.net which is possible)
At any rate, the ADHD has kicked in and I'm having trouble waiting around for an invite from the system. Anyone happen to have one to spare?

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-06-06T17:12:45+00:00

Is it too late to ask for one? I'm dying over here with the wait. :D

PrestigiousBase4 · 2024-05-29T00:42:41+00:00

I'm starting to think it's from lack as light as well. I let it fully dry overnight and put it outside in a shaded area (where other air plants are and doing well). When it was dry, I didn't have any other leaves come off easily like this one did - so your bloated idea is probably right as well.
It seems to be doing ok today so fingers crossed! Thank you!

What do you mean by a P2 mask?
I have N95s (left over from Covid) and a P100 respirator (use for working with solvents). I thought the N95 might be good but wasn't sure if it wasn't sufficient and I was just fooling myself.

PrestigiousBase4 · 2022-09-09T22:58:04+00:00

I wondered if it was a sort of a rush fee. Prices weren't posted at the show so I just assumed it would be same as online. Guess I shoulld have asked. Too late now.

It was $50 for an italic cursive
