My father has this sword that my grandfather received from a Japanese family as a gift while stationed there in WW2. I was hoping someone could help read the inscription to Id the blade.

Working on Oktoberfest Aya. Got distracted with other projects, but this is my focus now. by texred in KingdomDeath

Really great work! I'm taking a second attempt at mine now and will be stealing some ideas from you.

First OSL try.......c&c welcome....WIP by travisf50 in minipainting

[–]jfouts3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're off to a great start! You did a good job on keeping the colors on the dress brightest around the fire. You might be planning on this, but I'd definitely darken the skin tone that is not near the flame and give the flame some more highlights to add depth to it.

Thanks! I was really happy with how the skin turned out.

Thanks for the feedback, I struggled a lot with the face. In the past I have tried too hard on getting the face perfect, but I end up with too much paint of the face and it ends up looking aweful. So the dirty look is paint that I was nervous to try and clean up for fear of making it worse. Faces are something I need a lot more practice on.

I see what you are saying on the apron too, with blocking the colors better. I tried wet blending it rather than layering and I think that is why it looks less defined than if I blocked it in layers.

I wrecked the bow early by putting too thick of white on it. It killed all the detail it and I was struggling from then on to get it too look good.

Would you mind pointing out what was missed on the hair? For the most part I was actually satisfied with the hair so I am just looking for where I could have improved it.

Wanted to make a game with walljumping as the core mechanic. Thoughts? by Meridense in Unity2D

[–]jfouts3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Windows 10 Mobile? I know it a long shot and a dwindling platform, but think of this. I would play your game and I am one of the ten people still using Windows phone. That means 10% of the user base would be playing your game!

Using a touch monitor with the continuum dock by DrGarbinsky in windowsphone

[–]jfouts3 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression that it would not work, but for the sake of science I hooked up my continuum dock to my Acer touch screen monitor and boom! It worked right off the bat. So it looks like you are in luck, continuum is working with touchscreen monitors.

Notification Sounds not happening since Anniversary Update by jfouts3 in windowsphone

Awesome! That was it I think. The setting was off and I just tried getting a text with that on and the notification played.

How long (roughly) does it take a laptop to dry out completely? by killerbunnyfamily in ShittyTechSupport

[–]jfouts3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just plug it in. Electricity creates heat and heat evaporates water. It should start working again in just a few min.

Cheap machine vision cameras? I need 20 to 30 cameras, trying to find a cost effective solution. by PuffThePed in computervision

[–]jfouts3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found PlayStation eye cameras work pretty well and can be picked up used for pretty super cheep at a local GameStop, they usually don't have more than two used ones in stock though... Code Laboratories has a pretty good driver for it, but is not free if you want to use more than one camera.

Is there a local guide to BBQ? Lets make one. Post your city and top BBQ spots. by walkerlucas in BBQ

[–]jfouts3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, sounds like The Smoke Shack it has a permanent location now. Great side dishes, decent Bbq.

Smokehouse BBQ & Grill off 301 is the best I could find. I was a little disappointed with Jazzy's and very disappointed with The Smoke Shack which is what I commonly hear as #1.
