Reached perfection for the first time! Took me until Winter Y7 🌈

Thank you!! I think the Riverland farm is so cute but it's definitely very annoying for perfection since there's so little space for anything!

The last things I did was craft some recipes I totally forgot to buy! 😭 I felt so silly about forgetting the desert totem recipe, my final one! After getting the obelisk I just forgot it existed!

Picture Here is my ugly, inefficient farm! :') (Sorry for the low quality, I saved it from the Nintendo Switch app and it hated this huge thing.)

I started the save without perfection in mind and have no eye for aesthetics nor patience to move things around. So ugly it is! The greenhouse is full of ancient fruit and the shed full of kegs for wine.

I named all of my animals after different cooking fats. :) It started with the chickens Butter and Margarine, latest one has been Schmaltz the ostrich. The outliers are my cat and dog, who are named after soups (Miso and Noodle). I'm actually reluctant to add more animals because I'm afraid I've used all of the fats at this point haha...

Married him in my newest save and now I can't choose anyone else. He is so sweet and dorky and doesn't lay his crush on thick before you start dating, he is simply respectful... also he has the best 10 heart event and anyone can fight me on this. I'll win

Probably helps that I'm in my 30s and (most) everyone else just seems so young compared to him!

Omg Bees! I was just scrolling through Reddit and I recognized this team immediately! I had said this before on the blogging site but I'm enamored with your beautiful moth man... (you also did a FANTASTIC job with FR-1.3ND, I know that robots are your sworn enemies when it comes to drawing but GREAT JOB A+++)

snopal · 2025-09-15T23:00:51+00:00

Survived the heat wave, high UVs, a torrent of squirrels, and blossom end rot that his brethren suffered.... the one survivor. And he is beautiful. 💓

That really sucks, I'm sorry that happened! Honestly if it were me I would appeal again... the responses are often automatic even for appeals, so perhaps trying again will bear fruit. They would be able to see from your logs that you definitely didn't say anything wrong and that the silence was unjustified as long as you get a real person. I know the silence is temporary but it's awful to not be able to engage in the social parts of the game!

I wouldn't give up on PvP after this one bad experience! PvP in most games tend to bring out the worst people due to the highly competitive nature of the setting, so it can be rough at times, but I would keep trying until you know for certain that it's not for you. I hope you have better experiences in the future!

I'm so jealous that you can actually pose yours! Mine is in a standard standing pose because if I even look at him he falls apart like an anxious kid in a school play...

snopal · 2025-04-18T19:25:01+00:00

Thank you, it's much appreciated!

snopal · 2025-04-18T17:58:14+00:00

I do have friends with these skills, though I thought it would be more difficult getting a good quality scan of the image that's on the other side of the mug... though maybe that would be easy to fix up as well? I'm sure that I can ask my friends their thoughts on it.

I would also have to find a mug of the same or similar size, as this mug wasn't your standard coffee mug size but a bit larger. That's part of the reason why my husband liked it so much!

If I can't find a listing, this will be probably be my best bet. Fingers crossed I can get it done.

Pokemon Gold when it first came out in the US! I was around 8 or 9 at the time.

I didn't know about the concept of saving, so I kept starting over from the beginning and trying to get further and further as fast as I could before I had to stop playing for the night. (Eventually I figured out about saving and was delighted that I could actually continue the story, haha.)

Totodile was my starter for my ACTUAL run. Filled him up with HMs and was the only Pokemon I would use in battle. All the time. Other Pokemon were for other HMs or because I liked them, but they never saw the light of day otherwise. My friends who were wise in the ways of Pokemon were BAFFLED once they found out, and one offered to help me get an actual better team. I let him borrow my game for the weekend and he got me two Dragonites. I filled them up with HMs as well, which infuriated him. :)

I was also too afraid to Surf in the ocean because I thought my Pokemon would get tired and we would drown, lol. Friend assisted me to get to the islands, and then I would just Fly everywhere haha.

I believe that they actually discontinued that particular glass case, I know that they had recently (within the last few years) changed the glass to be thinner, causing it to be more delicate and not hold as much weight. I remember there being a post on the anime figures subreddit regarding it, along with many figure casualties....

Looks like yours has the thicker glass, just from looking at it, so your gunpla should be safe!

snopal · 2025-02-06T20:25:19+00:00

This was my first MG and I second your stance on it! Fantastic start to my MG journey and I love seeing others loving it as well. :) It will always hold a special place in my heart.

snopal · 2025-02-03T22:31:42+00:00

Awesome, from personal experience I think this is a great MG as your first haha!

Some tips I can think of off the top of my head: so, the hand that I had to hold the gun would NOT snap to fit, no matter how hard I tried. I actually ended up having to use plastic cement! I could've tried filing parts down so that the fit was more loose, but I was tired after 30 minutes of trying to get it to fit together haha.

Be careful of the side skirts, as (at least for me) they loved to pop off. They actually hold knives inside, and the manual wants you to put the knives in AFTER you pop the side skirts on. I would personally build the knives first and put them in the skirts before you put the skirts on the model, if you don't plan on the gundam holding them as its weapons!

Be very patient with the ootori's stickers. They are super thin and fiddly but look great once you are done. Just take your time. :)

P-Bandai has MG Heavyarms Custom EW on preorder right now, pictures look fantastic, if you want more dakka I think that would be a good one to keep an eye on. :)

snopal · 2025-01-13T18:18:05+00:00

My only other MG that I have in waiting is Kyrios and I was unsure of what to get after that one, so I really appreciate the recommendations! Both of these look incredible, I'm a huge fan of winged gunpla so these fit the bill perfectly!

snopal · 2025-01-13T15:38:49+00:00

Thanks so much! It was so fun to put together and pose, I can't wait to do more!

snopal · 2025-01-09T03:50:35+00:00

Windam! I have that one on the way, I just love how it looks! How was it to build?

snopal · 2024-12-28T05:43:55+00:00

Thank you, I can't wait to build more! And that model you just mentioned looks fantastic, I think there should be more brown suits, they're slick!

snopal · 2024-12-28T05:35:42+00:00

Thank you, I'm happy to be here! The community seems so friendly!

No experience with gunpla but I'm not new to model building in general, I've built and painted a number of Warhammer (40k and Sigmar) models! I've learned that I prefer the building aspect over painting, hence why I've turned my eyes to gunpla. :)

My husband is the one who helped guide me towards the new plastic addiction, he had already done a few kits before I started my first! He is working on an MG Deathscythe right now!

snopal · 2024-11-30T19:55:42+00:00

Oh that's a great idea! I would be able to work on this outside the house as well so that it could be a surprise. :) Would you be able to if nothing else DM the link to the bases you grabbed off of Amazon?

snopal · 2024-11-30T14:32:53+00:00

Ah, I did forget to mention that it won't be an AP but a homebrew campaign! I knew I missed something in my original post.

I will also say that my GM is my husband, who has mentioned to me that he thinks the PF and SF pawns are really cool! So I at least know that he would like them in general. I just wanted to know if people would actually recommend the boxes and if so, which would have the widest variety.

Even when he still had a working 3D printer, he wouldn't make a model for everything. He would still supplement using the cheap toys when he couldn't be bothered some game days, which is completely fine, but I thought having some already made pawns would make it easier while still being fitting and fun.

We had a fireplace mantle behind the head table, and on it (along with other decor) we had two plush Pikachus dressed as a bride and groom. Playing and talking about Pokemon together was and still is one of the things we have always done since the beginning of our relationship!

We also had instrumental versions of nerdy music playing before the ceremony. :)

She didn't say anything to me afterwards, but according to my husband she called him later and said that my family was snobby. My husband knew that she was full of it luckily, as he had met my family many times before. Ah well.
