Fun game. Love the writing.

I have a multilevel farm (each level has 8 domes, filled with enough plants to make 5 stasis devices). I also have three gas & mineral farms for each of the required non-biological pieces.

Sure, 20min is a touch of hyperbole, as there are some steps to get the carbon ready, harvest everything, etc. Once I have it all in my inventory, I can generate roughly 10 at a time. By the time I'm done, it's about 20min. I then take some time to sell across a few systems.

Definitely have to try this.

Expeditions are a main draw.

As an "open universe" game, it helps to set your own goals. Many people work to find the "perfect ship". Others try to max out their frigate and fleet.

I decided to build a farm and mining operation that generates everything needed for top-tier manufactured goods. 20 min of base-hopping and crafting now nets me roughly one billion. This is enough to let me not worry about funds for a while.

Another fun thing to do is wander about with a friend. My brother and I routinely do derelict missions for fun.

It just boils down to "find what you enjoy doing and do that."

For bronze, I would mix brown ink into the resin, then slowly add gold mica until you like it.

Easiest solution I can think of is to use a blank insert. You can paint it as needed, even use washi tapes.

This is still in my "Co-Op Games Bin" with the "Forbidden" series.

It's, essentially, the PeaceCorps but for within the United States (my eldest just finished a stint with them). There are several groups under the umbrella, my kid worked with the NCCC (they worked roughly like an outreach program for FEMA).

While I don't think someone in their mid-30s would fit in most of the generic parts of AmeriCorps (it targets the 19-25 crowd), they do have administrative needs. This would be probably similar to what you would do as an Air Force Reservist of a similar age.

AmeriCorps is also a way to serve.

All I can here now is the song "Stress" by Jim's Big Ego.

I'm still hoping for combo planets.

 
 

Made a "Snow Globe" d20 (60mm chonk) for a friend's wedding.

I'm making a second chonk with a more detailed version of the mini as an inclusion.

 

After unlocking all (current) weapons and strats, sometimes it's just fun to kill bugs with Eruptor\Stalwart.

 

I managed to embed two 35mm scale figures inside without much issue. While I was letting bubbles shake out from the mold on my vibration table, I sacrificed an old brush to brush extra resin onto the models to prevent bubbles being stuck in the details.

 

Doctor Patches, however, does not like sharing the sill.

 

Oversized calico for scale.

 

What a difference a month makes.

 

 

Cataphractii with aftermarket shields, helmets, hammers, and badging.

 

Light-up forbidden jolly ranchers.

 

Started two days in advance. I am baffled by how many pots & pans the French must have in their homes.

Army painter chain mail primer, then a whole host of contrast paints, Nuln Oil, and a white paint.

Magnetized at the waist and for the top weapon.

All my others have magnetized arms, but these were from an old box that only made Warglaives.
