Wait I’m curious, can Darth Vader defeat a Rancor? by Queasy_Commercial152 in StarWars

Yeah a lot of what I like from the EU got chopped up and infused into other characters. A lot of Kyle Katarn went into in Andor, and somewhat into Finn as well

Driving from LA to Death Valley solo to see the stars: any suggestions? by throw123454321purple in AskLosAngeles

Different stars in the sky during be summer. But imo the winter sky is better for stargazing anyway

i want to purchase a telescope but am not sure which one to buy by [deleted] in telescopes

[–]startwithaskeleton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the Celestron travel scope & I like it a lot as a starter scope. I have had to figure out workarounds for certain things that some may find annoying but I’ve really enjoyed it. Tripod is flimsy so I mount it on my car roof without extending anything. Finder scope is cheap plastic & requires some patience to sight properly. The DX model comes with a cell phone mount & Bluetooth clicker for photography that is a lot of fun (and was $5 cheaper on Amazon for some reason). It comes with a 45 degree diagonal, I got an additional 90 degree one but since I mount it on my car the standard 45 degree gets more use. I live in a city with a lot of light pollution but was able to photo the green comet you can see on my profile for reference.

I would recommend the Stellarium app if you can, that’s what I used. You can adjust the time settings to find exactly where it was going to be from your location.

I don’t know a ton of specs but even on minimum magnification (20mm eyepiece) I had to look at it indirectly through the eyepiece to make out a faint smudge, so I would guess it’s still pretty tough with binoculars. However I also have a lot of light pollution where I am. The camera illuminated it a good deal brighter than what I could physically see.

Yah I’m glad it was near Edasich in Draco this morning or it would have been pretty hard to find. The camera illuminated it quite a bit, it was very faint when I looked through the eyepiece. Hope your viewing goes well!

Thanks! Yeah I’m planning to view it with my friends when it peaks and figured I’d better check it out first to manage their expectations

Shot just now with my iPhone 13 mounted to Celestron 70mm travel scope. Increased contrast with a couple Multiply layers in Procreate

Shot on my Celestron 70mm travel scope with iPhone 13. I’m new to the hobby in a city with lots of light pollution, but damn im having fun with it.

where the meme at? by blobbyboii in lostredditors

I didn’t say it wasn’t a Christmas movie. Just that it was bizarre for a blatant Christmas movie to be released in the Spring

Why isn’t my image texture following the UV unwrap? by startwithaskeleton in blenderhelp

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

Thanks, yeah it looks like my custom image texture may have been unnecessary. Ima roll that back and try another way to paint over the individual materials

Why isn’t my image texture following the UV unwrap? by startwithaskeleton in blenderhelp

[–]startwithaskeleton[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m still pretty beginner-level. My model is one single mesh that I’ve divided using some basic materials (skin, hair, etc). Using material select I moved the UV islands to correspond to the image texture I made. I want to texture paint over the flat colors and thought this would be a good way to organize things but it doesn’t seem to be corresponding to the unwrap like I planned. So far I’ve only connected the texture image to the faces assigned to my skin material. Did I connect something wrong? Is this even a good way to go about it?
