The best things in life are actually really expensive. Success is just failure that hasn’t happened yet. If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it. Eagles may soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines. Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe. I am free of all prejudice. I hate everyone equally. I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal. Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is you’re stupid and make bad decisions. Everyone has a purpose in life. Perhaps yours is watching television. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. I’ve developed a new philosophy. I only dread one day at a time.

Sci-fi Rice Paddies Get Wet

While taking stock of my grass tufts this morning, it was evident that I only had enough to sparsely plant the paddies, and one unit would have to be done with mixed colours. Oh well, I suppose the mixed tufts could represent plants of varying age, or some that have already been harvested.

I mixed a light brown craft paint with AK still water effects for the paddy water. The pour itself was easy enough, but the acrylic effect seems to be wicking up the tufts, which I had not foreseen. I’ll give them a day or two to dry and report back.
