Haven't been able to post much in the way of my models/textures I've been working on (As they are related to upcoming super secret projectsᵀᴹ ), but here's a little globe graphic I put together just for personal/PaleoTech website use✨

Biblically accurate PMC

Found the keys to the kitchen to start cooking again 🔥

Enjoying the new blocks far more than I expected.

"Mortal Engines", the art is fantastic, the VFX is solid, and the worldview is not bad, but it's just not good.

Good news: I’ve reached Level 42.

Bad news: I’ve come down with pneumonia,

so all my Minecraft builds will likely be delayed by two weeks; I won't be able to finish this new train before Thursday.

At times, being an aerospace enthusiast can feel rather disheartening.

Aerospace is a field inextricably linked to politics, and naturally, it becomes a stage for people to parade their superficial understanding. A mere word of praise for a particular country's rocket performance or unique design concept is enough to have all sorts of political labels slapped on you—leaving us with little choice but to simply shrug and say, "You get used to it."

Venus de Milo, plaster copy, charcoal

I’ve always felt my PC’s performance was "good enough"—it handles stable rendering (albeit slowly), runs Minecraft fine, and plays recent titles without major issues, save for the occasional poorly optimized game. That is, until I encountered Ace Combat 8.

I’m seriously considering replacing this old workhorse that’s been with me for eight years. It’s not really about the cost; I just have a habit of sticking with what I have until it’s completely unusable.

I WANT TO PLAY ACE COMBAT 8 !!!!!!!!!!!!

——From a player who pre-ordered *Ace Combat 8* but cannot play it because their PC is still equipped with a GTX 1060.

Every day I spot something about the front end that doesn't look quite right, so I make tiny adjustments—much like an automotive clay modeler who simply slaps on a bit more clay wherever a line looks off.

Having a model makes things much easier: I use a straight LED light strip to illuminate the surface I’m trying to recreate; by observing how the reflection distorts, I can determine the general 3D geometry—a little tip from a restoration builder!

Halloween month has begun.

We don't celebrate Halloween here, but every year around this time, people start post "Lonely Halloween" MV.

And then, two months later, it’s Mariah’s turn.

Oop I guess it's that time of year for me to send PaleoTech nastygrams to 9Minecraft again 🙃

Had a good streak for like a year or two after the last one.




PSA for the uninitiated, 9minecraft site illegally re-uploads, re-packages, and sometimes even spikes (Infects with malware) content from the community, and lists them on their site as if they were posted by the original creator.

Do not use their website if you come across it 👍

Orange gotta be one of my favorite seasons 🗣🗣

The real challenge in building an electric locomotive model lies in the electromechanical components.
I can finish the basic shape of the entire train in just one day, but it takes another full day to determine exactly what the electromechanical systems are and where they are located on each car. Even train enthusiasts don't necessarily photograph these details—and I certainly can't ask someone to lie on the tracks just to get a shot. So you can only search for blueprints, and even then, you might not find them.

How goes it PMC people

Unfortunately, I’ve encountered my first case of someone copying one of my builds.

A medieval church from my project has recently been uploaded to Planet Minecraft by another user without credit or permission.
https://www.planetminecraft.com/project/free-medieval-church/
The similarities go far beyond simply using the same medieval style — the building reproduces the distinctive structure and design of my original church.

I have already reported the project to the Planet Minecraft moderation team and provided the relevant information.
The church on the picter was built by me. You can check and compare this for yourself.

I’m completely fine with people taking inspiration from my work — that’s part of sharing Minecraft creations with the community. But inspiration and republishing someone else’s design as your own are two different things.

If you use my builds as inspiration, feel free to do so. If you directly recreate one of my designs, please give proper credit.

My new train has begun to take shape. In fact, as long as I'm not doing MZK facilities, my efficiency will be surprisingly high.

Brutus, Plaster bust

I’ve just added KATO’s "Seven Stars in Kyushu" to my train collection; I now own two of JR’s three major luxury sleeper trains, with only the "Twilight Express Kamakaze" left to acquire.

I had originally intended to use these funds to buy the "Sunrise Express," but the "Seven Stars in Kyushu" is a new release and holds greater value for a collection, so I’ve decided to save the mid-range and commuter-style sleeper trains for a future purchase.

Hmm, "Sift"... I really don't understand what kind of strategy Mojang's "new worldview" after 1.21 is going to follow.

I’m guessing the heartwood of its trees will be sky blue, while the stone and its variants will be a deep teal-green. Minecraft’s existing block sets in the deep blue (navy) and green ranges aren't exactly comprehensive, yet this update doesn't seem like it will fully address the scarcity of options in that ecological niche.

I had originally planned to go to bed and wake up early since I’m off tomorrow; I’d been meaning to build a new train—a project I’d already put off for nearly two weeks.

Then, I suddenly woke up at 1:00 AM. Feeling a sudden surge of resolve, I fired up Minecraft and started building right through until 5:00 AM—that way, I couldn't keep procrastinating.
