I’ve done traditional DIY mold casting using ProCreate putty and found it suitable, if that material is in your budget. I have used a little bit of mineral oil inside the mold as a release agent. For me the most success has come from letting the material sit in the mold two or three times longer than you think it should take to be fully dry.

That would be the game designers’ and game director’s job. The listing in the article is for a VFX artist, who is working on the visual side at the direction of the game director.

Just screaming “make the game more fun!” at VFX artists is misplaced. These people are necessary on games, but unless it’s a small/single person team, they don’t have any hand in the game design mechanics aside from implementing what is coming from the director.

Nothing in the job listing seems like it is looking for a revolutionary destruction system. That seems like flourish added by article. It looks like a much more mundanely written job listing for destruction VFX, which is a role that shouldn’t be surprising in any way in a military shooter.

My goodness, this is some insane mountain out of a molehill reporting. The article is extrapolating a lot based on some vague and not particularly noteworthy qualifications bulletpoints that should be expected for military shooter VFX work.

What a loss.

Sketchbook. On work trips, I always finish one drawing every night as a way to get out of a work headspace.

The interior looks like a trendy, wannabe-upscale Mexican restaurant staffed entirely by hipsters who don’t know how to make good Mexican food.

From the moment I understood the weakness of your squirt bottle, it disgusted me. I craved the taste and munch of snacks. I aspired to the yum of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your rules about the countertop, as though I will listen. One day the willpower you use yell at me will wither, and you will stop begging my kind to eat food in the kitchen. But I am already eating food in the kitchen, for the zoomies are immortal…

There is, but nothing I can find online is great quality. There are various collections of Wally Wood’s art for sale, but they are unreasonably expensive. The snippet I posted was from a physical copy of Epic Illustrated April 1982 that has a tribute section to the Wally.

The cover of the issue.

The tribute showing a snippet of his drawing range. He could do light hearted goofy comics or serious action pieces.

The actual clips seem to show quite a lot of the signature bleakness of the show itself. The trailer seems to have just slapped a poppy song with on-the-nose lyrics over the visuals to make it seem more “fun”.

I don’t think so.

I was assuming filming was already happening or done so the movie could release in 2025, given The Penguin show’s obvious purpose as a public reminder of the Pattinson Batman universe.

Look at the guy in the far right of the original photo vs the photo I put up. He has a fairly normal skintone in the photo I put in, and is positively oranged up in the OP photo. I think he is a good barometer of the change. This isn’t to say RFK is a baseline normal looking person, but two things can be true- RFK looks weird and the colors were heightened, with one result being exaggerating the tone that was already there for him.

If you don’t want to see the difference in the hue/saturation/vibrancy between the photos, I think continuing back and forth would be pointless. The colors are to my eye, clearly tweaked. In the OP image even Ronald Reagan looks like he used a little spray tan. Somehow the deep brown-grey shadow on the side of his face took on a significantly more red tint, despite this being a flat painting photographed in identical lighting between both photos.

The unfunny answer is likely that somebody tweaked the picture to up the orange, specifically to get a reaction. Especially likely since the reverse image search pulls up reddit as the first source, and reddit loves nothing more than beating a comedy dead horse. Finding pictures that were from the same event, people are noticeably less orange colored. Even RFK who does have an orange tinge isn’t oompla loompa colored like in the OP picture.

Also community rule 2.

Stargate is pretty good. If you watch enough Stargate, Trek actors start filtering over quite a bit.

People that get into a hobby for the purpose of making it a hustle tend to crash and burn (there is an occasional success, but rare) because they lack the knowledge and experience that comes with having been in the hobby.

The tabletop/Warhammer community is overflowing with wannabe commission “pro painters” who bought an airbrush and a bunch of contrast paints and immediately started advertising. They might get some bites, but commission painting lives off of repeat business and word of mouth. Neither of which are driven much by beginner level contrast painting and airbrushing.

Or more recently (and I suppose in the same wheelhouse as the topic at hand), Hunter Biden’s pardon was a blanket pardon for any potential crimes that may have been committed on January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024. It wasn’t just for what he had specifically been charged with at the time.

If meetings are happening so long and going in so frequently that nobody can make sense of them without an ai summary, might I suggest there are too many meetings?

I say this as someone who used to work at a place that had meetings about meetings to figure out why so much time was wasted in meetings.
