Awsten Knight Hair (Two different files)
I started with showing Red & Black first as it's the latest but I made 17 swatches. I think I covered every significant color, skipping most Greatest Hits hairs as those are a pain okay, I am but a single person with GIMP. I did do the scene hair but I would like to some day do it on another mesh. I sorted and organized all my pictures of Awsten, over 400 btw, by hair color, to help me figure out the best examples of each, and to figure out which ones were just faded versions of the others, a few swatches are 'faded' colors, and which looked distinct enough to make swatches for.
Green seems most consistent, I have the most pics of blue. Greatest Hits tricolor and red & black are my favorites. The blue is the first color that shows up on the swatches so the thumbnail shows blue hair to make finding it easy. I tried to mimic that the two distinct reds were not exactly the same. I've gotten way too fucking good at telling when a picture came from even if the color is gone from it.
None of these are what hair my Awsten Sim normally has tho.
This is. I made this a couple years ago and never changed it from most outfits as it just makes him stand out and it took hours to make, I wanted to get the most out of it. Just one swatch here.
Both of these are base game mesh recolors, so nothing else is needed. Standalone files. Also I went out of my way to grab werewolfy poses and emotions because I think it's adorable, okay. He's the least intimidating werewolf, but still my favorite.
Forgive Jack's face and body and everything being in frame a lot I am playing as him.

sometimes my internal clock is shit (i think it's 6am, it is in reality 8pm), but other times it's like "i think brushing my hair took about eight minutes :]" & then i check the timer for my food and lo and behold it's taken 7 minutes 43 seconds. what the fuck.

29 January - 4 February
Got cross-trained on a different system at work (yay knowledge) but the processes in place are not the most efficient (reader, they suck). We have related programs that work so smoothly and are basically the same thing a little to the left. Why, oh why, can’t we implement those tweaks here?
Made myself go to the doctor for the first time in like. Five years. Finally got this season’s COVID booster (have had such a hard time with the pharmacies around here and finally this clinic had it). I even scheduled my follow up appointments. I haaaate the meatsuit-maintenance aspect of ~self care~ (do not perceive me!) even though I know it’s necessary.
I’ve gotten really bad about starting books very enthusiastically and then just…not finishing them. I started three books this week and finished none of them (I did read several short stories for that ghost stories class, though!)
My coworker’s 14-year-old daughter recently came out as a lesbian and my coworker is frequently asking me for advice on how to relate to her, and is always excited to share with me all the cute stuff her daughter and her girlfriend are up to - this weekend it was a painting-each-other date and picnic, which, aw. The kids are all right and my heart is full.
I started my next crochet project, a simple baby blanket for my sister (we all have our suspicions, but if not, well, the blanket can wait). I did the first dozen rows and ow, my hands. But the yarn is so so soft and such a pretty shade of green, and I love the rhythm of it while I let my brain just zone out.
It’s been cooler this week but we got lots of sunshine. The local coffee shop a few blocks down from my office released their February specials, and while I’m not normally into their funky flavor combos (they’re usually way too sweet) they do have a rose-vanilla latte that might be my new favorite. The coziness of winter with the floral promise of spring.
I went for dinner with a close friend that I hadn’t seen in a few months, and while we were catching up he told me he had been diagnosed with and started radiation treatment for bone cancer. I didn’t know what to say. All I know how to do is help with cooking and household stuff and just hang out, and trust that if he needs more he’ll tell me. He’s estranged from his family and has just a few close friends, and while I respect his reservations, I worry that he’ll suffer more than he needs to, that he won’t let the people who do care about him do more for him. But so far his prognosis is good, so we’re hoping to have a really enthusiastic celebration for his 30th birthday (and hopefully remission? Please?) in June.
Hello, February. Please be kinder.

Once again I am depressed at the idea of all of her friends and family coming home to Overwatch during the Recall and everyone has aged, showing their years but still happy to be together.
And Lena looks exactly the same as she did when she boarded that plane, all those years ago. Growing old is a luxury she lost a long, long time ago.
