I break a few hearts (?) and explain/apologize for why things around Asplenia Studios continues to be a bit quiet. Umm… join for free and decide later if I’m worth patronage? At least I’m forthright and honest! 🤣 www.patreon.com/posts/161856...

Crossposted: When organizing I found a lost set of 8bit Macross DYRL stickers. 4 sheets of 60+ stickers. Premium vinyl, UV coated and dishwasher safe. $40 and free s&h to USA (DM for international rates). First come, first served. #macross #macrossfanart #robotech #pixelart #8bit

Back in high school, my parents surprised me with a drawing table set up (QVC, I believe). While that table is long gone, the lamp has carried on. Until yesterday, that is. 35 years. 14 moves (3 internationally). I can't even bear to look for a replacement. It's too soon. #rip #youdonegood
