+1200 words tonight. I believe that once I finish Chapter 35, I will get ready to edit and publish what I've got so far. Long overdue but we're getting there. #BT-R #BuildTuneRace #writing

You know a livery project is going really well when you hit 9 hours in a row in a single night. adding the time i already spent on the other day, i think it's about 11-11.5 hours of work sunk into this project so far. A few teasers. #tempest_liveries #nissan #skyline_gt-r #gt-r_r34 #z-tune

fun drive, all in all. 10/10 would spend 3 hours and get 1 good run again #tempest_drives #assetto_corsa #tail_of_the_dragon www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvvD...

+1600 words last night, and Chapter 34 (Interlude 2-2) was drafted. Not sure how many drafted chapters I should save up before I publish but I'll keep going regardless. #BT-R #BuildTuneRace #writing

Happy to say we are back to writing BT-R. Apologies for the lack of updates lately. I have been focusing on self-care due to a particularly difficult last few months.

+1780 words last night. Going all according to plan, it's quite fun to continue working my way through this arc. Progress is slow but we're getting there. #BT-R #BuildTuneRace #writing

I wish to apologize for the ongoing delay with the next BT-R chapters, it's been difficult for most of the month of February. I should be back in the writing saddle this week, and hopefully I will have enough soon to feel satisfied with posting. #BT-R #BuildTuneRace #Writing

Last night's writing went really well. I think I spent basically all of my Sunday evening and well into the night writing. +3200 words, give or take. I'm not quite there yet but I'd like to have at least 5 fresh chapters by the end of the month.

Some shots I took while messing around in Assetto Corsa. Livery is my representation of Midnight from #BT-R on top of a Subaru Impreza WRX STi Type RA Version VI (vs_subaru_impreza_gc8_sti_typera_vi) #virtual_photography

I think of all the social media websites (all of which I am Bad At and generally Don't Like), Insta has got to be my least favorite. Weeks of issues trying to log in, and Insta still won't let me change my password. I don't think it's normal to use "forgot password" every time you want in.

Now that I've done Ren, here's Hye-rin! The #BT-R deuteragonist and certified gremlin. I've learned a bunch of new techniques from friends since last time, and gosh, it was a ton of fun. It's still a new feeling for me to be proud of my art. #art #OC #BuildTuneRace

I've attempted to upload a picture to bsky three times, and each time it displayed a black rectangle instead of the piece I wanted to upload. Now is not the time for technical issues...

Happy to report that I have gotten back into art and drawing. Here's Ren Arase, main character of my writing project #BT-R ... and it's still crazy to say it... but it's from me. #art #OC #BuildTuneRace

A #BT-R side story I wrote at the end of last year with a friend's OC in mind, and published with her permission to tide everyone over until the next main chapters. This will be exclusively hosted on my website, you won't find it on AO3. tempest.nekoweb.org/writings/bt-... #writing #BuildTuneRace

Finally! I have new #BuildTuneRace chapters out!! Chapters 26-30 are out, start here: archiveofourown.org/works/631971... If you like #BT-R or my #writing in general please feel free to hit up my ko-fi! ko-fi.com/tempest_sap

Half #BT-R #BuildTuneRace update, half personal update. Tl;dr Life is happening a lot so writing new chapters is complicated right now. Also Bsky's 300-character limit sucks.

seeing three likes from an account shilling AI art was my reminder that I am, in fact, permanently Tired of Social Media anyway i am moving. you can find me at the Website League posting.isincredibly.gay/tempest i'll keep posting important updates here but frankly i never really cared about bsky

#BT-R update! Five new chapters, 021 through 025. Please give it a read! archiveofourown.org/works/631971... #BuildTuneRace

Here's a #BT-R commission I got from @alesbianstaccato.bsky.social ! This is Daiki Satou (Moshpit Viper), leader of the Bayshore Vipers, recognizable by the visual kei hair and the irate behavior. Better watch out if you spot his Impreza Hawkeye behind you...! Thank you again Stacc ♥

#Wplace aint always the best but that doesn't mean we can't be our best. Here's a Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am, emphasis on the Trans Reference: #pixelart version of one of my Forza Horizon 5 photos, #livery also by me (as simple as it is lol) Preserved for posterity in case it's gone tomorrow

Gosh, it's exciting! #BT-R has received fanart today! This is Sera Kobayashi, introduced as a license test student in the Sodegaura arc, drawn by bazzy_skellie www.instagram.com/bazzy_skellie and posted with permission!

It only took me two months to post an update! Published 8 new chapters of #BT-R a few days ago. Chapters 012 through 020 are now available. archiveofourown.org/works/63197146 #BuildTuneRace

Lotus Emira GT4 | EMIYA #AssettoCorsa Custom #livery for the Lotus Emiya LM GT4 (lm_gt4_emira_gt4) 14 hours of work (and 5 Photoshop crashes), completed on June 29, 2025 Full gallery: tempest.nekoweb.org/misc/livery/...

I started virtual car liveries all the way back in 2008. My earliest work was the Daytona USA Universe skin pack, intended for the Cup90 mod for #NR2003. Might be old stuff but I'm still proud of what our team did. Gallery: tempest.nekoweb.org/creations/da... More links in the followup post.

Goodsmile Racing style livery but Teto instead of Miku. 🤔 Alright, that goes in my project folder.
