I guess it's a simple way of handling dying clubs without just disbanding when the founders leave. The hope being that the new hands will be willing to step up to the "leadership" role.

Good luck with Horseland. I'm trying to revive my half-dead club and at least make it useful to it's members.

Well, butter my butt and call me bread! Got my first group A qualifier with a massive 4 wins.

Gonna get absolutely blasted in the semi-finals. But, hey, not bad for a F2P scrub.

I really wanted to put, "What better way to say I love than with the gift of shoes" in the club description.

But, the character limit was best used to describe the actual goal of the club. You know, instead of a UHF joke that has to be obscure by now.

Oh....yeah...guess I should say the name of the club. Shoe City....it's called Shoe City.

The character limit is very small on the club description.

So, I couldn't explain the joke in the club description.

Slots are limited, but more should open up as I kick absent members.

And, yes, I will try to cram outdated boomer references into the honse girl game.

The club goal is to trade shoes and post practice partners for points. Y'all know how annoying it is to get club points. This is to help all us F2P scrubs MLB story cards. Otherwise, you're free to do as you please. Members absent for 30 days will get the boot.

By some horrid mistake, I've been made leader of a club in UmaMusume. I guess the old one quit and since I was the highest rated member the role got foisted on me.

So, if you are currently playing and don't have a club to grind points join us, won't you? Or, post your ID for an invite.

There's nothing like having a stranger in your house to make all the clutter embarrassing.

But, I'm not going to belabor the point of my post. It might be great. However, the recent MST3k revival, not the most recent one, left me very nonplussed about reviving old movies and shows. Sometimes it's better to leave something in the time it was made.

Oh, I'm not claiming that Star Wars isn't fertile ground for ridicule and riffing. I'm sure a talented crew could make something great.

Mel Brooks is VERY old; as are his comedic sensibilities. They are not as sharp or relevant as they once were. I point to History of the World: Part II. Mediocre

I dunno.

History of the World: Part II exists. Depends on how you feel about that. I found it a very mixed experience leaning toward I didn't finish it.

Ugh...it's at least 30 years too late and your thumbnail is a parody of a movie that is 11 YEARS OLD now!!!!

As much as I've always wanted something like this, it reeks of disaster. The bones of the dead horse you are beating are naught but dust.

But, I'll probably still see it.

Are they Battletech fans? Always interested in knowing if these designs hold appeal beyond the BT crowd.

Perhaps. I don't know how the art would work out on a woven patch. But, I've been impressed before by what can be done.

Really, my mistake. I tried updating the shipping method on the shop site to a newer version. It didn't work out. Now, I can't revert it back to the system that worked before. So, I just made everything a flat shipping rate that covers the US. But, nowhere else. Plus, the tariff scare.

03.03.2026 20:47 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I hope to be fixing that soonish. I have to go through to reconfigure the shipping on the website; which is going to be an absolute pain. The current shipping model is only applicable to the US.

New BT themed pin-up sticker in the shop.

They are printed with a shiny brushed metal effect that has a slight rainbow-like deboss. ( It's hard to catch in a photo. )

Now you may ask: Big Red, why?

The answer is simple. For too long have the stewards of #Battletech hidden the true for of Theodore Kurita. At 28-30 years old, this was how the Dragon wished to appear. And trying to hide that is wrong.

He is the Hair of the Dragon

I do pride myself on being able to illustrate in a range of styles.
Glad it's appreciated.

The second large piece I illustrated for Big Red's Pheonix Hawk IIC video. He sure loved pitching the complicated paint schemes to me on this one.

Last piece by @eldoniousrex.bsky.social for the #PhoenixHawkIIC video. Can't thank him enough for this one in particular because it came in clutch. I'd not planned for it when the video's scope expanded.

An amazing piece, with prints available:
