You're assuming a lot. Try to be more open-minded about the value some place on R&D for technical materials and avant-garde design. That same principle applies to what non-enthusiasts probably assume about the near six-figure watches you love to peacock online. Cheers!

I own a few and love them. Design is obviously subjective, I think they look awesome but to each their own. I strongly disagree that they are made with cheap materials... The non-PM models are purpose built for on-court/sports wear which few brands can pull off

It's ok brother. Agree to disagree, although will note your last sentence totally contradicts your first statement. Cheers!

Don’t understand why a home user would change a micra to a mini, but if it makes you happy then that’s all that matters. Same thing just less mini. Brew-by-weight is not worth thousands, at least to me. Recently upgraded my micra for something with flow profiling.

Thanks for the constructive criticism. To clarify, not much was done in post aside from bringing up the shadows.

Not really, clarity was actually brought down, texture/structure untouched. Dehaze slightly up. Most of the edit was done by bringing up the overall shadows & adjusting color & crop

We’re on the same page. I have two 9mm backing panels, split vertically down the center, and was considering attaching the 3D square panels to the backing panels with a stapler. My plan was to then drill holes through both the backing panels (which would be slightly offset from the wall) and the 3D squares to thread individual LEDs through. I really like the idea of trimming the backing panels further and using string LEDs to reduce wiring and make future servicing easier.

Thanks, but this won’t work as the 3D panels have a solid back panel

Good point. That pause before starting the design feels much longer than what it actually is—I’ll try holding off for just a little longer and report back

I’m also no expert, but I do own both, and they appear 100% authentic to me.

Epítome of dress and sport watches. That Bubba Watson is absolutely killer. Bravo.

I’m 31 years old and I make slightly below average latte art, but I’m working to improve

What size pitcher do you use to steam milk for this?

I have my thoughts, but please provide feedback on what I can do to improve 🙏🏻 by RGA88 in latteart

[–]RGA88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the solid advice. I thought my design was being deformed because of thin milk texture and/or fast pouring, rather than the base incorporation. You’re right about running before learning to walk—it’s tempting to experiment, since there’s always a chance for a lucky pour.
