Iterations from a worn-out store-bought wallet to a luxury hand-made version in c/leathercraft@lemmy.ca

Nice! I hope that it works out well for you! Mine is still holding up beautifully

Both are insulation foam painted to look like wood. That worked great for the sign, but the post was actually not quite sturdy enough, and broke not long after this photo. Fortunately I was able to set aside the broken bit and just be somewhat more careful with the shorter post, and then I remade the post with a metal core to give it some extra strength and rigidity

I’d be shocked if they hadn’t heard that before

My wallet wore out about a year ago. I liked the general shape, but was looking for a fun project, so instead of buying a new one I made a similar one, first out of paper, then scrap canvas, then scrap leather, then a final version from Walpier Buttero with edge paint and hand stitching in an accent color. I designed it in Inkscape, and laser-cut the pieces, including the holes for stitching, which allowed me to get very precise stitches. Not pictured - several paper/staples iterations on the pockets tweaking the pattern to my liking

Taking over for an absentee/squatter mod (lemmy.world)
 

The c/cosplay community has no image/banner/description/sidebar, and the 'moderator' who created it has no activity anywhere except for setting up several dozen NSFW-titled communities the same 'nothing but a community name' way.

I want this community to exist, and from the response to posts yesterday & today it seems others do as well. Is it possible to request to be made a moderator of that so I can try to cultivate more of a community instead of an unmoderated space?

From Dragoncon 2022 - I haven't played the game myself, but I had a group of friends that were doing it, so I picked one that seemed fun and joined in! The beak is laser-cut craft foam, and the feathers are all laser-cut and airbrushed fabric. The jacket was substantially modified to add relevant details (including an attached vest, not visible when I'm washed up on shore) and the rest of the outfit is closet/amazon cosplay. The communicator is an inflatable we made ourselves. I had to remake the back from scratch to get something that would scale up that big, and we got it custom printed. It works as a costume as well (with legs sticking out the bottom), but is fairly unpleasant, so we determined it was better as a prop. edit: Editing to see if the post will federate

TIL the scientific answer to "which came first: the chicken or the egg?" is the egg in c/til@lemmy.world
[–] derelict@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It’s a simplified stand-in for “creation or evolution?” The “hard to tell” usage of the phrase that is often used has always confused me, because it is an easy answer regardless of your worldview, but different worldviews have different ‘obvious’ answers
