this article is really good with a lot of well researched interviews and perspectives and context as to what was going on in the studio. but sometimes. sometimes there's really only one sentence that speaks louder than all the others

Back in May, Double Fine employees petitioned for a union. Two weeks later, that petition was withdrawn. What happened? https://kotaku.com/inside-the-failed-fight-to-unionize-one-of-gamings-most-idealized-studios-2000742755

Felt like the base needed something else. Masked off a section ( laying 3 lines of tape, then removing the middle). Sponged on Two Thin Coats "Skulker Yellow" and did the same "alternation" technique across the lane diagonally. Sponged on Two Thin Coats "Dark Reaper" and peeled for a nice finish.

For those who aren't up to date on the 360 modding scene, this is a Big Deal. Believe it or not, until now, the 360 still never had a softmod and while some exploits in recent years had gotten most of the way, this is the real deal. You probably no longer need to solder your 360 to do Fun Stuff.

Grimdoomer has just released the first version of the "Peer Pressure" softmod for the Xbox 360, giving code execution at boot time, within 20 seconds, with no hardware modifications required, supporting the majority of console motherboard revisions! github.com/grimdoomer/X...

And that's the Heat Hawk done! Did a phased set of stages in Two Thin Coats "Centurion Red", "Orange Flare", "Yellow Flare", Vallejo "Ice Yellow", and finally Two Thin Coats "White Star". Then I glazed the orange into the red and the yellow into the orange. Finally, edge & dots in "Dark Reaper".

It's really starting to come together. Finished the layering of Two Thin Coats "Contagion Green" and also did 2 steps on the underside of the shield and parts of the axe with Two Thin Coats "Ashen Grey" then "Rodent Grey".

Now for some high impact stuff! And what will likely be the longest stage. Layering over the green using Two Thin Coats "Contagion Green". Also did the eye in Pro Acryl "Bold Titanium White" then coated in AK Interactive "Intense Pink" with the center of the eye being a 50/50 mix of both.

Layered Two Thin Coats "Orc Hide" on all the armour that needs to be the darker green. Deliberately avoided recesses so as to allow the previous colour + wash to keep the panel separations defined.
