went to the comic & game shop near me to see if they had any new gunpla model kits and got this stupid sd zaku. he isn't finished yet but i tried panel lining for the first time and it doesn't look terrible hey.
i'm working on a page for my stamp and gunpla (+ artbooks, CDs, books?) collection so you might see the finished zaku there if i end up getting the page done.. it might stay as a wip forever though
i've been listening to a lot of masayoshi takanaka's albums while going on walks. his music reminds me of summertime.. ahh i want the sun to come out again.
here's a good youtube video on takanaka
interstellar (2014) (rewatch)
type: film
"When Earth becomes uninhabitable in the future, a farmer and ex-NASA pilot, Joseph Cooper, is tasked to pilot a spacecraft, along with a team of researchers, to find a new planet for humans."
watched this with my mom. i adored the cinematography and of course the gripping soundtrack by hans zimmer. together they really are the backbone of this film.
also having seen 2001: a space odyssey now, i can definitely see the influence it had.
+ while rewatching i realized that those reoccuring nightmares of large bodies of water and gigantic waves i've had for years were probably evoked by interstellar lol
from the sea to the land beyond
by british sea power
took some time today to sit down and listen to the full album. beautiful sounds
the rocky horror picture show (1975)
type: film
"A newly-engaged couple are stuck with a flat tire during a storm and must seek shelter at the bizarre residence of Dr. Frank-n-Furter, a transvestite scientist, who unveils his latest creation: a muscular man named 'Rocky'"
this has been on my watchlist for a while. what a ride lol, tim curry was great in this. bring back overtly perverted and queer films.. (meant in the most positive sense)
happy new years! i ended up sleeping through it but i dont really mind..
year in review + resolutions: i'm very satisfied with my 2024, even if i procrastinated a lot. i started getting out more and grew closer to a lot of people + reconnected with some i haven't talked to in a while. i went to berlin and leipzig, wrecked my graphic tablet and got a new one, reworked my website and managed to get surgery after a very long wait.
i want to work harder this year!!! here's to hoping i spend more time reading books and drawing, as well as working on personal gamedev projects. reviewing more films and albums is also a new year's resolution i want to uphold.
a little private, but now that I've had surgery i want to pay more attention to my appearance and social life and live out the things i couldn't do for the past few years to the fullest.
I would also love to pick up writing as a new hobby.. thinking about worldbuilding is something i literally lull myself to sleep with every night, so I'd love to write down some ideas and improve my writing skills. maybe this will help me finally get together a group for some tabletop games I've been meaning to dm.
making ceramics and clay figures would also be cool.. i guess in general i just want to create more for 2025
oh also here are my favorite words of 2024:
