me Ch..Ch..Ch..Changes There have been a lot of changes lately, many not good at all, some good and bad. The most recent one being that I will be parting ways with my employer end of June. I would have never thought I would stay there for 20 years and I most likely
painting A tale of security and digital watercolor Well, looong time no see. I’ve been having a bit of a health related crisis, nothing serious in the sense of being (potentially) fatal, just very painful and persisting for a long time. I have actually been drawing and painting some and might go pack and catch up on
painting Featured Recent Paintings and Drawings For some reason I have mostly documented my digital painting and old ink work here. Most likely because I wanted to document the bursts of Inktober related drawings while the watercolor paintings lack both such bursts but also an easy to grasp arc, interpunction in the flow of art. I
painting Watercolor Projection process I thought I document the process I figured out for myself of how to best approach doing watercolor painting based on digital sketches with the help of a DLP projector. Background I have been working on my painting skills for some years now and ended up in a on/off
drawing Inktober 2022 This year I felt like I could do an Inktober again. Life got in the way pretty badly and for a while I felt like doing Inktober was too much, but in the end it felt like it rather helped. In the end I ended up doing 21 of the
buffy Buffy/Angel Episode Guide spooky tree I decided it was time for me to rewatch Buffy and Angel and I wanted to do so in the right order. I found this blog post that gives a recommended order and what episodes are especially important to sync up because they reference the other series. But

Here are some character paintings I did people in /r/characterdrawing Ophelia, Drow Cleric Tetra Erde, Chef Sorcerer, Tiefling (watercolor and gouache) Granny Chanterelle, Tortle Circle of Spores Druid Chacter paintings
Automaton Form Design in domainql-form In this post I will try to go through high-level design aspects of domainql-form. How I initially envisioned them to work and how they evolved over time driven by our experiences with it. First concept The first concept was really simple.

graphics Wacom Cintiq Pro on Ubuntu 20.04 focal fossa This post is meant to collect my experiences with my new Wacom Cintiq graphics tablet in Ubuntu and document the current state of my configuration for posterity so that it may help others.

bootstrap Darkly, free I was looking for a good looking dark theme for one of my toy projects and came across a bootstrap theme called “darkly” which looks nice but as so often, comes with a one of those snoopy Google fonts that can/do track you etc pp. In this case it
3D Toggle Show WireFrame Addon for Blender Recently watched a youtube video about the Blender boolean workflow. Even though I got the Boxcutter and HardOps addons, they’re basically just a fancier and more user-friendly repackaging of the boolean operation workflow in Blender without those addons. So I thought there might be value in understand the normal
Automaton InteractiveQuery in Automaton For the second post in our “Cool shit in Automaton” series, I’d like to write about the InteractiveQuery mechanism. From the general conception to the final implementation with some nice Automaton features.

Data injection GraphQL-injection with Automaton/DomainQL In this blog post I will try to explain how we organize data loading in Automaton/DomainQL and walk you through the general idea of it and how to adapt it for your own project.

art Inktober 2018 After having had a phase of acrylic painting for a while, I have joined Inktober 2018. Started a bit late, had some weak days at the end, but all in all I had a real good time trying out ink and other techniques. At first I really like the simplicity
Vacation Art, Part 3 Did another vector piece. Took nearly 9 hours as-is. Seriously underestimated the complexity of layering the caustic light effects even in the limited fashion I did here. Originally wanted to go even further. * Full-size Image * SVG-Format

download How to change the Trash shortcut in Ubuntu 11.10 oneiric ocelot Unity’s default shortcut to use+T to open the trash has been bugging me for some time, mostly because it conflicts with my open terminal shortcut.

CDU Das Volk stört nur beim Regieren Liebe CDU, Lieber Herr Mappus, das Gewaltmonopol des Staates bedeutet nicht nur “Wir dürfen prügeln und niemand sonst.”, sondern vor allem auch, dass dieses Gewaltmonopol rechtmäßig genutzt werden muss.
