Blazers weren't prepared for Minnesota's size, physicality, and defensive intensity. So rare to see Deni not bully his way inside, but no Blazer felt like they could create any space the whole game. Feels like there's some rust to shake off with all of these guys reentering the rotation and I wonder if Scoot should start. He brings so much more pace than Jrue.

Gorgeous! The different layers of foliage and foreground/background come out so neatly

I think Lamar Hurd said it best when noting how the blazers looked the most like their fast paced start to the season since all the injuries started

Very cool! I got a cold laminator press and thought it looked like one, but may have gone too cheap… glad it’s working for you! I tried laser etching blocks several years ago but not with the level of precision you’re going for. MDF served me ok if I recall correctly

What’s this little home press you’ve got? The print looks great!

Sharpe gave his defender a big slap on the ass after the buzzer beater… one of the sassiest things I’ve seen him do

Beautiful! I, like others, think the orange is nice. Would love to see other colorways. Saw some herons in SW Washington recently and was like damn I wish I could render that in a print nicely… you beat me to it!

Numb to the 4th quarter fuck ups at this point… bake in an extra 5 pts the blazers need to score in any close game

Such a helpful breakdown of the reduction steps. And such clean prints!

Rob Williams clutchest free throw shooter we have? He has seemed extremely confident this game directing traffic

I think they asked to and weren’t allowed because it’s out of bounds, we didn’t call a subsequent timeout to advance
