    That's what I said to Kerberos but they still went for The Pit 2 instead of Sword of the Stars 3!!!
     
    Sorry for going OT! Great work with the caulk'n'all, BTW.

    Ah, so it's a rarely used door (kinda makes sense, leading to the roof...), no problem than.
     
    THOUGH, knowing you, I envision a greenhouse on that roof in a year or two!

    This IS interesting. Seing it sometimes do a weird drop only to insert the next tile into the hole it created earlier makes me wonder how many tiles in advance it knows about... Also building the empty column on the right is kinda weird. But hey, if the AI can't beat us at a completely math driven game, it knows nothing.

    It was the part of the soul that just couldn't let the beauty of all of the flowers pass - and made you capture the moment! Beautiful, BTW. Do you create the arrangements, too?

    Silicone is good, even when too much of it. But seriously, better to have a bit too much than have a hole somewhere.
     
    And not taping any more, huh? Getting cocky with freehand? Ok, I guess practice does make perfect!
     
    Oh, what are the boards used for?

    But, you're proving your recommendation WRONG! Simply by doing a repair so good that replacement would be unnecessary...
     
    That said, the door seems on a cheap side. Buying new one is probably a much cheaper solution if your time is taken into account.

    @SV: wow! I see what you mean. And even the train delivering the blow is probably diesel-powered, so the symbolism is off the charts!

    So yesterday the downstairs tenant called me at work and asked me to meet him in the parking lot. Ok, no problem he occasionally does this. I figured he was going to personally hand me the rent check for the month like he does sometimes. Nope, he needed help moving in a new microwave and griddle for the kitchen (he's slightly disabled so he has trouble lifting things). Did that and he stops me dead in my tracks and starts gushing how beautiful the apartment looked. My pleasure of course, I know what it's like to be a tenant where the landlord rarely does anything to spruce up apartments. In this case, my reward from him was two six packs of beer with more supposedly on the way. So yeah, a happy ending for both parties is always a win.

    Happy birthday, Silencer! 40 or not, I envy you your XCOM skills. May those last you for ages to come!
     
    BTW, do you find it odd to be 40 and feel 17? I think we may age but never grow up.

    He he he, heavy coating of lacquer caused me a problem or two before, too. And then you sand away all the hard work you've put into it.

    Ever considered a career as a construction/reconstruction contractor? You have plenty of pics to make a huge library of your past work, and that would have to be enough to persuade just about anyone. It might pay more than flowers.

    Sorry, not sure I understood this part - were you doing "dry brush" to save some paint or to make it look weathered?
     
    Great work on textures, BTW, and the door looks brand new...

    NoX, just a thought on two or even more colours in a room... I did that in both rooms the children occupy and vowed to never do it again. If you're only redecorating that one room, it is doable, but painting a room or several in more than one colour is a pain when this is just a part of a bigger project. I spent hours just cleaning the gear (rollers etc) when changing the colour.
     
    It does look somewhat nicer, more lively, but nowhere near the level of work input. Go white and declare all walls a surface for painting. This way you won't care for all the drawings that will end up on the walls anyway. Not that you wouldn't know, already having two.

    OT; As a father of three myself, I support anyone who is willing to put that boulder upon his shoulders. A LOT of work, always worth it, naturally.

    Do you have a particular brand you'd suggest? Also, is there a company like Lowes or Home Depot, etc that has a better understanding of specific color variations? The reason I ask is because I have a third kid coming soon. I want to paint his room sky blue, but then there's Baby and Powder blue. Thanks

    HE HE HE, I can so imagine that. Also, I didn't even know you can get spray-on wall textures... Not that I'm a fan, any non-verticality turns into a dust shelf sooner or later.

    But yes, pretty neat way to transform a box of less useful dimensions (with that length probably prone to folding whenever you put anything but flowers in it) into two much sturdier items. Tnx.
