2023 ended weirdly abruptly for me, but I got the shot in the arm I needed in order to hit the ground running in 2024. This year's going to be absolutely crazy, but for me personally, I feel my worst years are finally behind me. I'm ready to stop drowning in a sea of...

Quick Update
This is a general update and not project specific. To start, I've been pretty sick the last couple of weeks. That nuked almost every end-of-the-year plan and goal I had for 2023, including the Yamato project. Even as I write this, I'm only just 'recovering.' There's...
Cosmo Falcon Spotted (Yamato WIP)
Okay so the Cosmo Messers aren't 100% compatible with the Yamato, so I wanted to modify one to be close to spec. I somehow wound up making a full-blown Cosmo Falcon. There I go, makin' replicas again I also did some side by side comparisons on an old request and Good...
Yamato Progress
Oh my goodness ... well, things may have slowed down exponentially compared to the first 24 hours of working on this thing, but that doesn't mean there hasn't been major progress. Check this out. The exterior is nearly finished (minus coloring) The catapults work...
Space Engineers: Space Battleship Yamato
Uh ... yeah, I'm not sure why I started making this yesterday. I'll do 'inspired' builds, but I never attempt actual replicas. For some perspective, this is sixteen hours of work crammed into about a day and a half. It took me a year to get the Admiral Hipper slapped...
Expanding Kaiser Lore
One of the most annoying things about fleshing out these World War II inspired factions is that there isn't enough territory in the setting to go around. I mean we've got America, the UK, Germany, France, Japan, etcetera. There are only a handful of habitable worlds,...
One More Day (Prinz Heinrich)
Progress is great all things considered. That said, I’ve been pulling things together all day and I still don’t have the time or energy left to finish it up today.
I actually could post the article here shortly, but it would be without the tour video. I’m going to need at least a few hours to edit that and my energy levels just aren’t where they need to be in order for me to put together something good in time. So we’re going to try again tomorrow. It’ll be a day later than I hoped, and this does push my work on the Chronicles of Proxima back an extra day, but it will be well worth it if I can give this article the thought and care it deserves.
So here’s to tomorrow.
EDIT:
I forgot to mention, on top of waking up later than I would have liked, I got ambushed by npcs in-game while gathering screenshots and footage. So naturally I took the opportunity to get some combat screenshots and footage while I was at it.
Overall, the article will be better for it. It did cost me an hour, though. It was a long fight with about a dozen ships gunning for the Heinrich and I had to take some time to capture, convert, and upload the extra stuff. I didn’t wind up using all of it, but it was one of those nasty surprises that actually worked to my advantage.
Anyway, that’s all I wanted to add. I was expecting random problems but nothing that would actually help in the end.
