Hi all, this project is for @flagawhale — Flagawhale is a Communal Flag Account to Deter Junk Post Reward Manipulation — they fight the spammers that clog up the blockchain with their worthless content.
They're looking for help and exposure, as it's definitely an uphill battle to clean this place up. Whether it's general support or delegations, they're open to assistance.
Squid Painting
Last week I modeled the squid, this time around, I'm painting it up. I have to say, the purple color may have to be changed, because if I brighten the lights too much, it looks like an appropriate color for a squid with a mission.
Technique
As you'll notice in the video, I did a lot of fracturing in this model to prevent painting over the wrong surfaces. So, I split the flags/flag posts, squid center and flag arms up. I also cut the squid in half and after painting that half, mirrored it to save a massive amount of time.
Stare into the eyes...
of a spam killer! You can start to see how, if the lights were brightened, the purple would become a crazy pink. So, we're going to have to revisit the coloring for sure.
Squid in repose
That's about it!
As you can tell, I've been toning down the usual comments so you can learn more about this much needed initiative. I hope you'll join the battle in one way or another!
