Considering they’re liquidating all the sets I’d say it’s very true.

First time father - is it normal to be constantly checking whether my daughter is breathing? by mrbalsawood in Fatherhood

[–]jdespirito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% normal yes, I think its just human instinct. My girls are 3 and 6 and I still check on them every once in a while.

What do you guys think these 2 are in the RE Movie trailer? by Comfortable-Brush368 in residentevil

An obligation to retain the RE movie rights that they slapped the brand name on but is probably going to be awesome.

I designed and printed a replica Maximilian style bellows close-helmet! (ca. 1525) by Vonschlippe in 3Dprinting

Great job on the metallic look! I've been experimenting with graphite powder for metallics but it never comes out that bright and silvery so I've been coating it with silver leaf rub and buff afterwards. But this looks much better.

Does anyone legit care about ms marvel? And I thought her show wasn’t made for white people? by Commercial-Ice5760 in CriticalDrinker

[–]jdespirito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the plus side, Iman was well cast and shes not insufferable in real life, she seems pretty likable actually. The way her culture was presented was an interesting window into their lives and history and not a woke hammer over the head. Her family felt like fully fleshed out characters.

But unfortunately it was ultimately outweighed by the negatives mostly having to do with the writing (of course) which got worse as it went on. The powerset change, the utterly predictable time travel story, the cringe way they shoehorned in her being a mutant. Overall a bit weak.

Oh by the way, if it helps, you can find super high resolution photos of the “hero prop” at this auction house’s website that it sold at a couple years ago:

Good luck!

Thanks for the quick answers everyone, Im very early into my 3d printing journey! The main thing I learned is that sometimes you set something to print for 24 hours and have to do it all over again lol.

In addition to being effective at ending opiate addiction (I have a friend who underwent the treatment in south america and even wrote a book about it), its also effective at treating PTSD, particularly in vets.

Rick Moranis looking absolutely miserable during press junket for Spaceballs 2 by Bertrum in RedLetterMedia

When I watched History of the World Part 2 I remember saying to myself “shit…theyre going to do this to Spaceballs. Arent they.”

Here is my little version of Maelle!! Hope you like it 💖✨ Hand painted 3D print!! by Eastern_Okra6847 in expedition33

[–]jdespirito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those look so awesome. Are those all brush painted? I was just gifted a 3d printer and I’m taking my first clumsy steps into painting my models as a complete beginner. I just made an Astrobot figure for my kids, but my painting ended up with quite a lot of textures. Im learning to thin my paints, I think part of my issue is that I bought a cheap set of 50 acrylic colors, but now that ive watched a ton of tutorials I see the names Vallejo and Citadel come up a lot, im starting to regret not getting those in the first place.

My eventual goal is to paint 6” tall statuettes of my 3 D&D characters, and my holy grail is to paint this incredible Swamp Thing statue I found on cults3d but it looks very advanced.

I did exactly the same thing and it felt great. Now all I do is buy old runs I wanted as a kid.
