[MENTION=22]ShieldBreaker[/MENTION] - do you happen to still have the original Sun Vale postcard? I was just talking to a friend about lipstick on game characters, and I wanted to show off Spot with and without lipstick to him. Then I realized I only have the "without" picture...
Very last image in my Work in Progress gallery https://imgur.com/a/UDQXr
Awesome, thank you!! Her nail polish looks less bright than I remember - I must have had a really picky day when you originally posted it...
Oh, and on a slightly different topic: Very belated congrats for having your very own picture in the game! I just realized last week that the painting called "Shieldbreaker's Lament" might be possibly be named after someone I know. :) I'm hoping that when housing gets introduced, we get to hang some of the existing paintings on our walls - would be fun.
Thanks, I too hope to use it to decorate.
For the record I'm pretty sure there is a space between Shield and Breaker's in the name of the item in game.
Yes, I noticed the extra space in the painting name but blamed the name mangling on my inadequate art history. I mean, how many red-robed, beer-drinking mages with a pet rat can there be in the game? :)

Time to get down to business.
Happy Dual Wield Dagger Day Everybody!
Cute Hector picture as usual. :) My mind wants to combine the two pictures now: Hector in a fluffy white priest robe while dual wielding daggers and shouting "rawwwr". Hey, priest/knife is a valid combo, right? And blankets of course go well with any spec...

Fertilizer Stacking
Another improvement worth noting. It is kind of strange, this will save way more effort in inventory management than milk stacking did. But for some reason milk stacking made me way happier.
[MENTION=726]Daguin[/MENTION] thanks :)
[MENTION=90]Tagamogi[/MENTION] I thought of an interesting way to make cotton for the combined picture, but that's as far as I got. I was thinking if Hector was wielding daggers he would be stabbing the blankets, so cotton would be spilling out. Oh well.
Agreed! I make fertilizer on an "as needed" basis in my pack while gardening, but milk takes up precious storage chest space...Quote:

Happy Crafting Improvement Patch Day Everyone!
Oh fun stuff! I was just looking at all the pictures in this thread again yesterday and thinking we needed more postcards... :) Thank you for continuing to post these!
That rune looks about Hector-sized - hopefully nothing bad will happen if he jumps on the summoning rune... Hm, maybe it's a two-way portal and he'd end up in the bank chest? If the bank is full of cheese, that may turn out pretty nicely.
I think the portal is only one way. Now you got me worried about pantries all over Alharth. Hector has already had a run in with Nishika, I got drunk and and called Selaxi sexy by mistake, Rugen keeps calling me an idiot and threatening me with his knives. I have the worst luck with chefs, last thing I need is for Hector magically burgling their food stores. On top of that I worry that if Mandibles found him in his stores Hector would end up on the menu.
Oh dear, I hadn't thought of the dangers to Hector. I'm sure that even if the current portal is only one-way, there is a two-way level 24 spell out there somewhere that Hector will probably master before all of us. Maybe you should have a chat with Hector and explain that he should only port into the pantries of chefs that are already mad at the two of you? Preferably while you are distracting them, to avoid any dangers to that rat tail. And it might be better to stay away from Rugen completely - those knives look sharp and I bet he can throw them...Quote:

No there isn't any easy way to tell mantis' gender, you would think the females would were different hats maybe. Usually can pick up hints in conversations. I would worry about offending any of the Queens, but not too worried about the rest.
Lol read that in a wrong way that probably was intentional cough* cough* anyways who does the art on these picsQuote:

The elf and dress I designed and rendered, the backdrop is called Hunter's Moon which I licensed from someone who goes by LaurieS. Usually I create my own backdrops, but they are usually pretty basic stuff using terrain engine built into the software.
I'm assuming a mantis' gender is so obvious to a fellow mantis there is no need for them to wear different hats. It would be rather helpful for us non-mantises, though. Some of these mantises are really tricky to befriend, so I am worried about offending them and possibly dropping from Best Friends to just Tolerated...Quote:

What awaits us in the Rahu Sewers?

Looking for entrances in all the wrong places
Happy Patch Day Everybody!
haha ShieldBreaker , Best part of my morning is seeing you post another pic .
This was very much me this morning - ran all over Rahu wilds and then felt like a dunce when I found it.
Thanks Sheawanna and Deldaron.
The entrance location took me by surprise. I was actually pretty close when I logged out before the patch, but I figured it would be way harder to find, so it be closer to other landmarks in Rahu. So ran all over the place, like i predicted in the pic. Technically I had more trouble with Sun Priests then rhinos but in essences my pic came true. :)

Happy Easter
Perhaps the most terrifying image yet ...
well as long as they don't learn how to throw back the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch, we should be fine :)
Weird chanting heard coming from a dungeon
Rofl. :D I've been trying to think of mnemonics for some of the weirder symbols and I may borrow your chant. It's just been way too long since I'd memorized the runes from The Hobbit. Plus "th" "ng" "ee" sounds more scary than memorable. :pQuote:

Glad you found the chanting image funny Tagamogi. :)
About the other image, that isn't me in that one, it is someone more relevant to the patch.
Oh doh, that makes more sense, yes. I thought maybe you'd just gone for a change of outfit and hair color and general looks. Still, if someone leaves a shirt lying about in the desert, they'd better be prepared for a rat to run off with it regardless... Maybe that is one reason to stick to chain mail shirts in the hot desert.Quote:

That's why you can buy extra stable slots. :D More importantly, is it a male or female rat, and does Hector like his new friend?Quote:
