Love how this 1:24 scale grizzly with salmon came out. Printed for a customer.

#3DPrinting #ResinPrinting

Not currently an #F1 fan, but thought I'd check out the season since it's all included with my Apple stuff now. But they've locked it behind a forced upgrade to their worst OS in a decade, so I guess I won't. 🤷

Test prints for the next critters to go up on my #ModelRailroad focused etsy shop. Need to get the mini photo studio out again first though.

I have some mixed feelings about Taylor Sheridan's shows, but you can't deny his cinematographers know how to shoot landscapes.

One pattern I think I've noticed is that they seem to always frame sunrises to the left, and sunsets to the right. At least they've all been that way since I've started watching for it. Is that a known thing in filmmaking? Conceptually it makes sense (left/beginning, right/end) and helps the viewer subliminally understand what they're looking at.

Here's my favorite screwdriver. The laser-etched tips on these Weras are really nice, and the handles are comfy too. The etching grabs onto screws with friction alone, they're not magnetized.

Tomatoes, imminently.*

*on a geological timescale

Hopefully this is just some sort of bakery short hand, and not literally the message that I'll get on the cake.

Text and multi-layered complex logos are not really a thing #stereograms do very well. I took a stab at it anyway.

#ComfyUI

Stayed up way too late to get another component of my stereogram generator done. Made a new Comfy node that programmatically creates the noise slivers, so I don't need to keep making them with filters in a graphics program first. The node computes a Perlin noise pattern, then fuzzes it up with a bunch of other parameters. Now it's easy to scale to whatever the input depth-map needs.

Also squashed the artifact bug.

I should have been hashtagging these posts to keep them together.
#stereogram

A little more work on my custom stereogram (magic eye) python node for ComfyUI. There seems to be an optimal ratio for the image size to the pattern size, but I'm not sure exactly what that is yet. Feels like I'm getting closer though.

Here's Crater Lake, and the depth map it came from. If your eyes are able to get the 3d effect to converge, you should see an exaggerated z-scale of the topography/bathymetry.
