It's day 13 of Horrordailies, and this is officially a new record for my participation in the event.
Today, I followed this simple tutorial to create a ghost because it was an excuse to use the paths tool. GIMP has channels and paths and I've never used them — I should probably investigate those a little more, because they could be useful.
I had some weirdness happen around the head that created unerasable pixels — still not sure what I did wrong (though I suspect I ran into a GIMP bug), so I copied all the visible layers into a new layer and edited that.
Foster Kitten Updates
I think all is going well — the babies all gained weight overnight. The feral mom acts like she'd be happy to ditch her kids completely, but there's not enough space in the crate for that.
Herbie Lovebug got kinda upset when it rained. Not sure what that was about, but he calmed down when I closed the window.
Other Stuff
Dragon Fortune comes out tomorrow! I finally loaded the paperback today, and I sent a free download link to the people who were reading it on Kindle Vella when the platform went away before I'd finished the story. I really hope they enjoy the ending after waiting for so long.
Now I just need to finish that AITA post for my Patreon members and I'll be mostly caught up.
I did a 30-minute run/walk this morning and didn't die. I'll have to be content with that. I wish I lived someplace with some hills. Literally the only elevation change within two miles is the freeway overpass. Hiking up a hill sounds like a more fun way to get some exercise.
I HAVE THE BOOK!!! YAY. Bigger crate for mom? She sounds like she is having a rough time of things.
ReplyDeleteMom is in the biggest crate that will fit in my car. I *should* have put a smaller carrier inside so she could lounge on top, but now that she's inside, I don't think I can get one inside without freaking her out.
DeleteI really hope you enjoy the book!
