You can pick one skill from each row, and they can’t be from the same column.

    Cable management (fix my screwed up nerves) Quintessence (just to see what it would do) Photogrammetry (great for 3d modeling) Emergence (discover new properties in unexpected places)

      Cable management is the first one I did put of this set! Got through a big migraine just before I started drawing these. I’ll keep my thoughts about quintessence a secret, people seem to like the mystery of it.

    Lost my little sister to anorexia nervosa. I don’t like that it is presented like a ‘skill’ here. Would you put cancer as a skill in there too?

      I’m sorry to hear that. You have my sympathies.

      This is inspired by disco Elysium which uses things like drug addiction in positive and negative ways. None of the skills are intended as purely positive or negative, I just use that name because that game had also. I think there are things people suffer from that can make them uniquely better equipped for enduring some circumstances that they fight daily that many people couldn’t handle (not that it is a positive aspect in majority).

      And not that it matters to me, but the only reason I felt comfortable including it is because it is part of my life and I have been bullied for it. Yes, if I had cancer I might also put that in as a skill too.

    does ‘exoskeleton’ give me, like, an insectoid exoskeleton or a sci-fi one? this is important

      Hm, the intent was that this was more a mindset than an actual exoskeleton, but the picture would indicate a sci-fi one if literal about it. Would you prefer insectoid?

      Maybe I could do an insect reskin of the skills, I do like drawing little bugs. Ammotidia instead of photogrammetry, antennae sense instead of antenna array, flight trajectory instead of imu…

        hmmm. I’m not nearly kafkaesque enough to want a bug exoskeleton, so I’d have to say sci-fi. I might be lacking in certain skills on this list, so I don’t really understand what a metaphysical exoskeleton would entail.

        Also I’m a big fan of bug-themed things. Bugs can be creepy as heck, but also cute sometimes.

    This is beautiful! Such a cool style, and such a solid foundational theme running through all of the images. Love it!

    Inertial Measurement Unit, Quintessence, Nybbling, and Lookup Table are deffo my faves. Great choice of colours too

      Thanks. A few are on the chopping block to be replaced but none of the ones you mentioned.

      True, I forget restricting choice is always annoying. Was trying to coerce people into picking those that might be perceived as less useful but it’s better to let them do what they want.

    You should have picked up image scaling, font selecting, and contrast tuning as skillsets for this week.

      Oh sorry. I know it’s not the most polished it could be but thought zooming would be sufficient. I’m not really good with colour also.

      No regrets on the font though. Iosevka monospace always.

          Thanks. Were that other comment made to me last year it would have decimated my self-esteem and willingness to share, but your comment might have salvaged it a little. Luckily at this time I’m in the mode where only a normal person amount of fucks are given.

      Click the image title, the preview that gets served along with the comments is downsampled to save bandwidth and basically unreadable for things like this. It’s Lemmy, it’s not OP.
