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,...
Wrapping Up September
Well things are getting more focused on some fronts, at least. Still I’m behind on a lot of things and October’s not likely to be any more merciful to me. That said, I still made progress on a few things, so I don’t feel too bad about it.
On that note, the Cosmo Stuka has been revived. I was building a new frame from scratch last night on a whim and then decided to load in the half broken version with all the subgrids and see just how much work it would take to save that build. Turns out, not a lot. Back when I built that version of the Stuka, I didn’t know Black Armor’s technique for using multiple hinges to stabilize and strengthen subgrids. Now each subgrid part is supported by two hinges. The build’s much more stable now and just needs a better internal layout for actual performance. More on that later.
Going into October I’ve got two writing goals:
First is same as this month but it’s do or die time. The Lyre of Binding Chapter in Lydia’s Golden Treasury needs a draft finished.
Second, I’m starting the first Remnants story.
For October I’m just going to keep reading Legacy of the Force #1 and Dune and we’ll see if any progress happens.
Lastly are programming related goals. It’s mostly studying but I can at least ‘interpret’ both of my study targets (JavaScript and C#). Both are important for different reasons so I’ll be setting a lot of time aside for those, too.
That’s all for now. I’ll be firing off a more in depth update on the 2nd.
