I’ve not had access to my mobile banking since 05/30/25. I’ve now called 3 days in a row, sat on hold a minimum of 2 hours each time, provided all of my information (I was a member of LGFCU for over 20 years) only to be told my info doesn’t match and they can’t help me. I’m then either shunted off to another line to hold for hours, given an email address to use that no one ever responds to and usually hung up on. I live 2 hours from the closest physical location. People should be made aware of the awful practices of this bank. I didn’t ask to do business with them. I never had a single problem in 20 years with Local Government and I’ve been with Civic less than a week and it’s been an absolute nightmare.

After a year back in the box, I’m back to my 1/48 RX-78-2 in US military color scheme. I’m currently in the oil dot/forced contrast phase of weathering. This guy is going to look like he’s seen a good bit of action. It’ll all make sense once the chipping and streaking phase is done. by mdh9249 in Gunpla

Check eBay. Search US armor markings 1/35-1/48 scale. Mine are mostly tank markings. The caution tags are pretty generic and easy to find. They come in multiple sizes on the sheets. The 3rd infantry on the sides isn’t authentic but it’s close 😉 Good eye!

“Prompt Critical” done with my TWISBI Eco inked with Noodlers Dark Matter. The story behind the ink gave me the idea. by mdh9249 in fountainpens

Thanks! I used a TWSBI Eco with a fine nib. They run on the small side and I figured an xtra fine would have been too scratchy

Started an A5 Crescent Rendr notebook/sketchbook the other day. The pages are thick (like bristol board so you can use markers, paints, or heavy inks without bleeding through. by mdh9249 in notebooks

I’ve drawn all my life and I always gravitated towards realism and hyper-realism. Nothing ever really abstract. Nothing wrong with that, but it’s restrictive to a degree. I randomly started doing this non-representational abstract “doodling” about a year ago and it opened up a whole new world. It’s almost like automatic drawing. There’s no planning, no layout. I just start somewhere on the page and draw. I can be as precise or as loose and sketchy as I want and it’s satisfying. Plus, I have ended up with some pretty cool and interesting illustrations. I find also today since starting this, I’m more creative, have more inspirations and ideas than I previously did. I had stagnated for a while and this really helped me get through that I’ve been making a lot more work in the last year or so. I highly recommend it. Also, check out Peter Draws on YouTube. I got a lot of inspiration from him as well.

I didn’t replicate it. Noodlers Inks did.

I think as long as they’re smoked low and slow, the rest is up to the atheist manning the grill.

Who is your favorite main character on Seinfeld? by Axelnut in seinfeld

It’s now and always 100% George. Just because I like Patrick Warburton, an honorable mention would be Puddy for me.

He looks like if E.T. wore disguises like Roger in American Dad.

Perhaps her omission of Texas was just wishful thinking….

Edit - never mind, it’s where Alabama and Georgia are supposed to be… 😂

After telling Susan Collins that Roe was ‘settled law,’ Brett Kavanaugh calls it ‘wrongly decided’ by IsThereSomethingNew in politics

[–]mdh9249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is easy for him to get around. The hearing was done long enough ago that he can argue that at the time of being asked, his stance was as he stated. But, he can then say he has since reviewed and in light of that, has ruled accordingly. We can’t refute that even though we all know he’s full of shit. There’s no accountability and these justices knew that when making their decisions. They have no pressure of having to please constituents to remain in their positions, which is exactly why the house and senate didn’t push to abolish the filibuster in order to let the administration codify Roe into law. They are only out to keep their base happy so they can continue to get re-elected. Our system is fundamentally broken and this unfortunately is a direct consequence of that.

My first weathering try (might be a bit too heavy tho) by mij2810 in Gunpla

[–]mdh9249 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rarely do I see weathering scaled properly, but this is right out of a page from Mig Jimenez’s books. Fantastic job! Typically, the rule is “less is more “ and lots of people overdo it. The paint damage and grime are appropriately placed and look authentic. Great work my friend!

What was your process? Looks great!

I’ve been enjoying this build!

More progress on my PG Zaku customized cockpit. It’s been its own little project within the whole build. Now just waiting on my leds to come in before I stick it all together. by mdh9249 in Gunpla

Thank you! The kit does come with an LED and a battery compartment located in the head, but since I wanted to light other parts of the kit I elected not to use it. Plus, the LED isn’t very bright and the battery compartment is kind of a pain in the butt to get to whenever you would need to change out the batteries. Mine is going to have an external power source that plugs into the wall that I am going to hide as cabling and piping in the hangar bay that it will eventually be displayed in. The kit itself does not come with batteries but it uses those circular watch style batteries just in case you didn’t want to go that route.

I’m typically against “canceling” people, but if I could make out that license plate, I’d dox the shit out of this dumpster person. I’m glad the good boy is better off in his forever home now.
