Ooh! yes
I’ve been making fully playable dragons for 5e DnD. I mean ACTUAL dragons, not some ‘oh yes you’re totally a dragon, here put some armour on and hit stuff with swords’ copout
The template is designed to start at level 11, you see. I made eight entirely new classes for dragons so that a dragon player can start with all the powers that make them feel like a real, genuine dragon without being overpowered compared to humanoid players, and means they can gain levels alongside their allies too.
Here, take a look, I’m always looking for feedback and the template is still a WIP, some things need cleaning up.

If I knew anything about DnD I would be happy to take a look. I don’t, but it looks impressive.
I wanted to learn Blender to possibly try doing some 3D animations with anthro characters. I have almost no Blender or any 3D modeling experience so I started following along a beginners tutorial series by Ryan King Art on youtube. I got through most of it before deciding to start on my own little project.
Once I finish modelling it and texturing it I plan to add a simple animation of some rain and wind to it hopefullyLooks like a fine start. I know ruaidri over on FA had a livestream where they created a model. They say that they’ll release the video after some cleanup. They also have a resource about how they do fur.
If you want a newline in markdown, you have to put a second line break in.
or end the line with 2 spaces.Thanks! :3 Oh that would be awesome if he did! I love Ruaidri’s work and hes one of the animators that inspired me to get into it. Also thank you for the link on how they do fur
I’ve been doing some metal casting which is super fun! I saved up aluminum cans and foil for a few months and have some ingots to work with now.
That seems like a lot of cans. Any plans on what do with your ingots?
I’m going to slowly build up my skills until I can follow a book on how to build your own metalworking lathe!
Building a lathe could be super fun. As someone who has built a few machines, I can tell you it will give you a unique perspective on how that machine operates.
A metalworking lathe, though. I like the cut of your jib. That will be fun, and potentially extremely dangerous. Don’t kill yourself, please. There is nothing more terrifying than a lot of mass with a fuck ton of momentum.
Thank you! Yeah, I’ll be careful with it.
The book I’m working off of is from a whole series called “Build your own machine shop from scrap”. I opted to skip book one where you build a charcoal foundry, and opted to buy a propane one instead. Mainly so I don’t make a ton of charcoal smoke that floats around the neighborhood.
Sounds like quite the undertaking. Good luck!
Thank you! Yeah, there’s a fair bit to it but it should be achievable
I have been playing around with a project using the game engine Godot. Real simple stuff but it has been fun to learn!
The engine and editor super lightweight and I am able to sync my project between two devices using Dropbox. I have pretty limited free time currently so being able to work on it wherever if I have a bit of time has helped keep my motivation for the project, even if progress has been slow ^^
Just playing around, or hoping to release something?
Definitely just playing around, I’m not any good at coming up with interesting hooks or ideas. But it’s a hobby I’ve wanted to delve into and finally decided to make some simple projects. It has been fun learning how things tie together!

Quite the list. Don’t burn out.

Homework was the bane of my existence, I would figure out the most I could skip without too much issue. I was a bad student. I got that calculation wrong once though. I thought something was a percent of a grouping, not a strait percent of the grade. oops.
I have a shirt I got near graduation that says “skipped class to study for other classes”. In my case it was work on labs and the skipped class was an intro class when I was thinking about double major or minor.
I’ve been getting back into the groove of making artwork, which is all nice. My goal is to start a webcomic this year. c:
In other domains, what started out as a joke is becoming a full mod for Terraria: One that adds more cactus weapons apart from the basic cactus sword. :D I’ve never made mods for Terraria so it’s a simultaneous learning process.
