I'm aware of what a glitch is. What I'm saying is that they are already targeting these specific subs regardless of their moderation status. The only 'glitch' here was that they got caught pushing an agenda.

Then why weren't there loads more "unmoderated" subs of different categorize blocked?

If it was just a glitch, I suspect that the affected subreddits would better represent a random distribution of topics than what we witnessed.

That looks like a band-it strap puller/tightener.

I forget what the actual name is, but it can latch onto a metal strip and pull it tight around some digs to keep boxes and canisters in place, or to hold a strong back repair plate on a damaged pipe

I've of my favorite mechanics comes from Unearth, specifically their catch-up/bad luck mitigating mechanic.

In a game where the goal is to have the winning die on a ruin as a cumulative threshold is reached, any dice rolled under 3 nets you a stone, which can be used to build you own ruins.

Roll poorly enough and you won't fall too far behind. Have the worst rolls every time and there's a good chance you can win without actually capturing a single ruin card.

This is what happens when a wannabe dictator isn't held accountable for their actions during their previously failed coup.

You forget that their plans for an "overhaul" of any given program amounts to nothing more than cutting funding and hoping they can pull the wool over their constituents eyes with some new atrocity long enough to make everyone forget about how worse off their lives are now.

Costliest blaze in history so far...

I got into vertex shading in lieu of doing anything UV-coordinate related.

For reference, that's what Mario Sunshine used to fake most of the game's shadows, and the original Homeworld used them to create the entire skybox back when 3d-dedicated hardware wasn't too common.

That's the problem when you have a bunch of narcissistic opportunities vying for power. Eventually, they start trying to push each other down the stairs...

Nah, icicles are occasionally sharp...

 

Some festive collection of balloons in the rain!

 

Today we've got some majestic square sails and a neat crane!

 

A silly and impractical design! Only really suited for short trips between islands.

I also did a turnaround of this one: https://youtu.be/LvwbJlO4Fgw

 

Fought through a PC crash on this one! Don't think my rig likes the clouds XD

I built a Harpoon Prow and a double hull today!

Close Up

 

Spherical Balloons today!

Figured I'd edit some existing pieces today, too.

 

A pretty simple one today.

This one's got some nice, calming, upper-atmospheric clouds hanging out!

 

A roman-esque hull today.

Also making an appearance is the Maelstrom, an ever-present storm that inhabits the central region in-between archipelagos in my setting.

And here's a screenshot of my wireframe!

My geometry isn't the greatest, but it's fun, so whatever :)

 

This time with some birds!

I think I need to make a chubby barrel version at some point, but this fits my form factor.

 

Some sort of Claw Sail-type propulsion today!

I might hold back on posting these everyday in order to not flood the channel with airships. But, I will post when I have enough new pieces to make a whole new ship.

That way I can spend more time on composition for the renders, too!

 

I've decided to challenge myself and build 1 modular airship component each day this month.

Today's build is a Vertical Balloon, everything else existed for a previous project, but as more pieces are modeled, it won't take long before everything is swapped out.

Everything here is modelled in Blender, with the occasional texture made in Krita.

 

Had fun with a blend. I'm tempted to deal it and try some shade, but I kind of like it like this.

 

I've made a bunch of prompts to work with different scales such that I've can build up their setting with as little work as fleshing out a single prompt everyday for a month!

For each each day this month, choose a prompt from one of the Scales you need for your setting (Local, Region, World, System, Cluster, or Galaxy).

Alternatively, you can choose multiple prompts each day. The goal remains the same, chip away at various sections at your setting that one might not normally consider, and by the end of the month, you'll have a fairly fleshed out strong for any project you might have!
