i swear to god if they don't fix scales in the next season i will shit inside out

 

[The Real Me]

Tried this out yesterday. The results it gave me were accurate but they were oh so soul crushing, at least next season I'll know if I should even bother with the machine after only around 5-7 rolls instead of having hope every time I do my 5000 gold daily.

I hope your results are better than mine.

Is the lucky duck one the rare title? I think I got that one already.

I had several failed attempts before this one, some were smoother, some were entirely painted, some I carved to add the markings to the figure itself rather than painting them, but all of them got fucked up in some way so I cheated and just printed stickers of the markings. I wanted to make a definitive version because it has a lot of flaws, but she loved this one and didn't have to keep trying.
Maybe I will anyway, when I have more time.

Also made her these, in various Splatoon colors.

3D printing sure is something.

To make a toy for your kid...
Here king you dropped this

Thanks, but also it's part of the thing of having 3D printing as a hobby. I make tons of things and almost always wanna give them away.

I made a whole lot of little ghosts with concealable legs for the kid and her classmates for Halloween; a little niece visited the other day and and since she's super into Mario, I whipped up articulated Mario and Luigi (didn't paint them tho, so they're solid red and green respectively); I made an articulated Charmander, Charmillion and Charizard and painted them properly for a nephew's birthday, but haven't had the chance to give them to him yet. If you're a regular acquaintance of mine, let alone friend, you can expect a keychain of the logo of your favorite band to simply materialize one day.

I should also point out she kept all the failed prototype Big Men as well. They're now a gang led by the succesfull one: Big Man and the Big Men. One of them was smaller, so that's Little Man.
Now let's stop derailing the thread.

Apparently this stage from Splatoon 2 is being added in the next update. It looks really cool, I'm excited to get more Salmon Run maps.

Real men jump off the front of the boat at the end of each shift.

I hate bloblobbers so much.

Every match in the set I just finished had either 2+ bloblobbers and a cracked sniper/splatling, or at least 2 weapons with booyah bomb. I need a fucking drink.

I was pretty much the only person on my team with a displacement special in the entire run too. 4/3 isn’t bad but goddamn was it frustrating.

 

[The Real Me]

Hey guys, just got done maxing my freshness for Bloblobber. It's a really cool weapon that I enjoy and I think other people feel that way too because I kept being on teams with a second Bloblobber. It's so epic.

This weekend's random salmon run rotation was really fun, I got to Eggsecutive VP 200 for the first time during it. And I got a ton of Cohozuna kills too.

I lost two ranks and stopped playing.

 

[Blouie]

They announced when Big Run is starting. Apparently you get special Cohozuna figures for doing well during the Big Run.
Seems pretty cool so far, I hope scale drop rates are increased or something during the event too.

 

[Takayuki Yagami]

See the 10 alt kits below.
The only really bad one seems to be the slosher.

I thought they fixed the hammer.

it's still absolute garbage and a shitty special even in concept

The new weapons are a mixed bag. They completely ruined the Custom Splattershot Jr compared to its 2 version but the Tentatek Splattershot and Forge Splattershot Pro both got a decent upgrade from 2. The new brand of Splattershot Pro sure exists, it looks really cool but its mechanically more of a Squelcher than a Splattershot Pro and also I hate Point Sensor. The new Roller brand is interesting, being mega fast and having a wide coverage area, but its damage is rough and its sub and special don't really fit imo. I'm hoping it gets a variant with a more offensive kit eventually.

Also I'm starting the complaining every season until I get either the N-Zap '89 or '83 or both. Please don't give them terrible kits Nintendo.

I actually like the new Jr’s kit, if only because we have a shooter with torpedo now. That with wavebreaker and Jr’s innate high ink capacity augmenting the sub allows you to annoy the shit out of the other team.i

Edit: Did they nerf stealth swim’s movement speed?
