GIMP > Photoshop

I'm aware that Photoshop might have some aspects which make it more "professional" than GIMP, but for me the whole subscription thing is generally what keeps me away from Adobe's products. GIMP may not be perfect in all situations, but it at least provides what I need it to provide me without any subscription fee nonsense. Not to mention, it's open source, so, if I wanted to, I could modify the source code to suit my needs. In any case, if GIMP isn't providing me what I need, I can use other FOSS (free and open-source software) tools such as Inkscape (for vector stuff) or something else like that to help out. I don't deny any merits Photoshop may have, but I have what I need and I don't feel like paying monthly fees for stuff I already freely own for the most part. The fact that the FTC is calling Adobe out on how they manage their subscriptions only gives me further reason to keep my distance from their overbearingly proprietary model.

Jeff do be dancing tho

Hey everyone,


Sorry if I haven't posted a lot lately. Father's Day is kind of hard for me since my dad passed away so it was a little rough. But after some prayer and meditation I'm feeling better now. It was still a good day, just hard. We ended up going on a boat ride around the island with a dear friend of ours named Captain Randy.


So a little while ago I bought a Batmobile model kit from the Tim Burton Batman movies "Batman" (1989) and "Batman Returns" (1992) as well their continuation in the "Batman '89" comics.


The kit came with a paintable Batman figure which I painted (see below, also hand reveal 😂) as well as the parts to assemble the car.
Well I painted the figure as you can see, but I haven't put the Batmobile together yet. I need to find out what type of glue I need to put the pieces together.

Fortunately I found out that one of my fellow choir members at church is really good at putting together model kits, and he's agreed to help me put the Batmobile together. Would you like to see the finished model when once it's assembled? Let me know down in the comments section below.


That's all for now.
Batman over and out 🦇

Yellowshirt Lore Chapter III is scheduled to drop on the 19th.

As a new thing for my Patreon page, I've decided to start giving out occasional gifts to free members. These will also be available to paid members of course. The first of the freebies debuted today.

Join my Patreon for free and view this post to learn more. If you want to get more from my Patreon, consider upgrading to a paid membership for only $5 a month (I've actually been considering lowering that price by a bit, but for now it's still $5.)

All of this is optional of course. Just putting this out there for anyone who might be interested.

eh… sick… why do I have to be sick…

true

Oh yeah and happy father's day. Made a thing for my dad today. Kind of on the cheaper end of things due to time constraints, but he appreciated it anyways.

Thanks to KP206001 and Sophisticated_Trashcan for all the notifs.
