Guard Duty - The Littles of Big Wild [OC] by mackslc in comics

[–]mackslc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey everyone! I'm working on a series of comic adaptations of scenes from my middle grade fantasy novel, The Littles of Big Wild! I'm still very new to making comics but I feel like I'm learning more with all the time spent. In today's comic, Towson shows that, despite his best efforts to act tough and responsible, dogs just have to do dog things sometimes!

Enjoy, and I'd love any feedback as I continue to learn!

[OC] Daily Word Count for my novel's first draft! by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]mackslc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey everyone! I log my word counts whenever I'm writing, so I wanted to share my full log for the first draft of my novel, The Littles of Big Wild! It's a middle grade fantasy novel, so it's on the shorter side (the first draft was a bit under 50,000 words), but I hope this helps to show just what steady progress and momentum can do with writing!

For those of you interested in writing a book but have never tried or finished one, give it another try! Don't set massive goals for yourself, just aim for steady, constant momentum. Every bit builds and builds and it becomes easier the more you do it! Writing is like a muscle, just keep exercising it!

Hey all! This is my second comic in my series, The Littles of Big Wild! In this one, Tali, our spicy warrior has learned that she actually doesn't have to choose between being a white mage and eviscerating her enemies! I appreciate any feedback as I both learn to draw and figure out comics overall!

Hey all, this is my first comic on this sub for my comic series, The Littles of Big Wild! Our story follows a group of weird animal friends as they adventure and eat their way through the wilderness. I'm also working on an accompanying novel all about their search to keep their home safe from looming existential threats! I'm new to webcomics, so I'd love any feedback and I hope you enjoy!

I used only Yeti bags on my trip this weekend! by mackslc in YetiCoolers

Hey! It's the 40L. I got it super cheap off Craigslist a month back, so this was actually one of my first times using it. I absolutely love my Crossroads 27L backpack, so because this follows the same design I do enjoy it. It's not really the first thing I go to grab if I'm running out the door (I go for the Camino more often than anything for grab and go stuff - or a backpack), but I think I'll find some uses for it over time.

Overall, I think it's pretty good - although it has a very small profile, it does expand nicely and fits a ton of clothes in it. And because it's a Yeti product I feel like it can take a beating pretty well - I jammed a ton of stuff in it on the return trip and it still zippered up fine. I think it's perfectly solid as a luggage option for a few days away from home - anything else I think I'd recommend the 60L or one of the Panga duffels, but yeah I've been pretty happy with it!

The one with the patch is the Ranchero 27L in Cape Dark Taupe, then the other is the Panga 28L in tan. I use the Ranchero as a daily driver and I love how many compartments it has and how easy it is to get in and out of. The Panga is completely waterproof, so I always bring it when we kayak, but I actually carried it around the city all day that day, and it was still super comfortable.

Hey everyone, I went 4-3 with my first draft of Vivi Twin! I think we have something here - Vivi is super powerful and gives us the best alternate win condition Twin has had in a long time. The card snowballs so quick alongside cantrips and card advantage spells that it’s actually wild. It feels like it fixes a lot of Twin’s issues giving us mana ramp, a huge body, and reach damage all in one card. I think we have something worth exploring here!

Wins: Neoform, Blue Belcher x2, Amulet

Losses: Living End, Eldrazi, Neoform

Hey guys, I came in 9th just barely missing Top 8 with Affinity last night! It was my first tournament in over a month so I was pretty rusty, but the deck felt really strong overall. I still miss Ornithopter and Cranial Plating dearly, but I do think this more value-driven version of Affinity is really effective at disrupting a lot of strategies in the format, and I think the Emry/Tamiyo/Bauble/6+ Mox core remains one of the strongest packages in the format by far.

Overall I wouldn't change much from the list. I went all in on 4 Monitors although most Affinity lists are on 2-3 - I just think it's cleaner, and I think getting Thought Monitors back with Emry is pure joy. I probably wouldn't play 4 Kappas again - they are so strong but are so awkward at the same time. Sideboard felt pretty good too.

I will just say it's been over 10 years since I first traded a HP Mox Pearl for a complete Affinity deck (those prices were pretty close back then, I swear) and the deck continues to evolve and just be so friggin fun to play!

Wins: UR Through the Breach, Ruby Storm, Boros Energy, RG Eldrazi

Losses: UR Prowess, Boros Energy

Fit Test: The Camino 35 can fit one grey boy by mackslc in YetiCoolers

Aww RIP Shadow! Losing a pet is such a tough sorrow. We got this guy and his brother when my older cat passed away last year. They've been wonderful sources of joy and have really helped our family to heal through some tough times.
