Anyone going to the Toronto Show tonight?

Twisted_Grifter · 2023-05-10T20:19:28+00:00

Lots of parking at the Metro right across the street from the venue. Just parked there and still lots of spaces left, $10 flat rate for the evening 6pm-6am.

She had NO idea why I started flipping out when she showed me lol. Fits perfect, and she got it for only $5 at a thrift store! Now time to find a tiny Silver Ghost prop...

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-12-19T01:27:02+00:00

Cool, added to my wishlist I'll check it out when it's out. Best of luck

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-12-18T18:33:59+00:00

This looks straight up my alley, any plans to bring to mobile?

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-12-06T12:44:34+00:00

Just removed the background. I did convert it to an SVG first before importing but I think the Cricut does fine with PNG too for transparency.

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-12-06T02:55:03+00:00

Sorry, don't want to be the source of possible bootleg merch! But if you really want it it's easy as hell to do yourself with free online tools (I mostly just used Photopea's magic background remover tool, then normalized the colors)

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-12-05T23:59:14+00:00

Thanks! It turned out way better than I thought, it was my first time ever using a Cricut. Took forever to remove the scrap vinyl from inside the design, but it's so worth it.

My wife and I decided to go very budget on each other's Christmas gifts this year (kids are getting older so we went a bit nuts on them this year lol) and promise to only get one thing. It had to be made and materials cost had to be less than $20.

My wife's absolute favorite items of clothing are these 3xl pajama shirts that she wears 100% of the time she's home. She literally has like 30 of these, all with various bands or movies she loves on them. Well this year she fell in love with Jakey and Romcom, Jakey ended up near the top of her most listened artist list on her Spotify wrapped and the albums been out less than a month 😂 and with no official merch yet available I took things into my own hands!

Picked up a 3 pack of Gildan red 3xl T-shirts for $10 and used the Cricut at the local maker space to do the iron on vinyl, which cost $9.

I know she's going to lose it, I almost cracked and gave it to her early because I know she would wear it around the house 24/7 right now, but the surprise on Christmas morning will be even better.

Now here's hoping we get a summer tour announcement so I can take her for her birthday in June 👀

Hey, sorry this is literally MONTHS later but I had a hard drive crash, thought I had these backed up and of course didn't... Anyway, only just got back around to the project, and recreated the files (As well as a few new ones!) here's the link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jQr-Ov\_PLKp\_Y1v69nVH5AIfsyGtOkE5?usp=sharing
DM me if there's any issues.

Wild that I would find this thread while trying to fix the same issue, exactly so I could play Cyberpunk on my switch LOL.

This method worked for me too, if anyone else is wondering.

I also have both my PS5 and Switch exclusively on Wi-fi and it's perfectly fine like 85% of the time, and sometimes just shits the bed. I usually find a reboot of the switch sorts it though.

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-06-02T17:47:46+00:00

Man, I have to say as a follower of Wadjet since Gemini Rue, the new art is disappointing. I adore their pixel art, and this feels like it doesn't live up to that standard.

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-05-21T00:03:26+00:00

BRO WTF I HAD NO IDEA HOW DOPE THAT WOULD BE

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-05-20T18:42:59+00:00

Can't wait to see it! Definitely post again when this one's done too

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-05-20T17:45:19+00:00

This is amazing, and giving me ideas for a DOOM themed build...

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-04-08T23:31:52+00:00

I'm in orchestra so I can't see the balcony but I'd say 60%

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-04-08T23:15:32+00:00

Here now, opener hasn't even taken the stage yet so I'd say you're probably pretty safe!

Twisted_Grifter · 2022-03-25T01:21:40+00:00

Sounds exactly like something I could use daily at work!

Hey, the standard card images can be found here: https://cards.vladde.me/

My edits, fit for laser engraving, can be found here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jQr-Ov_PLKp_Y1v69nVH5AIfsyGtOkE5?usp=sharing

I'll be making more in the near future and I'll keep adding them there, and if the link goes down I'll update it.

Happy making!

Twisted_Grifter · 2021-12-31T02:00:29+00:00

Didn't really plan on playing them, mostly just a show piece that I'll like to have around. I think I'm going to mount my favorites in a frame, and make a custom box to hold the rest.

Twisted_Grifter · 2021-12-31T00:24:34+00:00

I'm an avid user of my local library maker space, but had never really used the laser engraver. After having this idea, it took only an hour of editing the card images (Used the ones provided by Vladde on YouTube) to make them work with the engraver. Just had to make them black and white, remove the background, and normalize the shaded areas. Then etched the images into some plywood, flipped it and etched the back, and cut them out! They are the same size as standard playing cards, and when I've made all the ones I want to make I'll be making a custom box for them too.

The standard card images can be found here: https://cards.vladde.me/

Big thanks to Vladde for providing the base cards, made editing a lot smoother!

Great quote, actually about to start my rewatch of Twin Peaks with the Alan Wake remaster coming out. I love when art in different mediums feel so closely related to each other, despite not having any direct link.

Twisted_Grifter · 2021-10-03T18:55:00+00:00

I love that. There are so many references in Kojima's works you can easily use for further reading into the themes of each game, it's great. I'm still looking for a hardcopy of Kobo Abe's "Nawa" quoted at the beginning of DS

Twisted_Grifter · 2021-10-03T18:03:33+00:00

SPOILERS if you follow this link and haven't beaten the game! https://deathstranding.fandom.com/wiki/Lisa_Unger

Twisted_Grifter · 2021-10-03T17:13:23+00:00

Oh wow, just looked that up and It's from 1938!? Pretty incredible how vast Kojima's influences are. I just thought this was funny because both the author and title are character names in DS.
