My Fuzz Bare
KMA fuzzly bear, which is some modified clone of a fuzz I never heard of. Not my favorite fuzz (that is the Carcosa), it's more a classic fuzz sound I guess.

Priests of Sanctamonious Excess full resolution
A person messaged me and said they were using this as their wallpaper but lost it, so here it is as the resolution I painted it at.

Carcosa Fuzz
Made a Carcosa Fuzz, by far my favorite fuzz. Even with slightly different components it sounds just like my original, and sequels like crazy with everything turned up like the original. I like that, makes it feel like you are barely wielding this wild electrical current. The case has my version of The King in Yellow.

God Labs Enterance
I remember passing by some inspirational quote on
the side of an arts building around 2nd Ave in Seattle going between
buses everyday and I can’t for the life of me remember what it said.
This quote is what I would say to Duke Nukem when playing Duke Nukem 3D
on Christmas when he says ‘what are you waiting for, christmas?’ I wrote
it down to remember it, then thought it was really funny written on the
wall there. Also there is a coffee and gift shop

MXR Distortion + and DOD 250 and Spiderman
Put an MXR Distortion+ and a DOD 250 in the same box, mostly because
the guys who make these layouts work hard to make them as small as
possible and it seems a waste to just put one in a box. These are also
extremely similar, but using the BAT46 diodes in the DOD is pretty
quiet, so the MXR can then be set to boost it which is neat. The case
depicts a samurai fighting spiderman.

Godlabs IDs
Some lab IDs to test out the logos. I thought it would be funny if
the IDs issued were unusually long so they wouldn’t fit in any of the
regular ID holding devices made since the dawn of man, but I sort of
abandoned that idea because I couldn’t think of more stuff to put on
them.

God Labs Logos
I was working on logos for signs and IDs and such and had a couple
triangle/double triangle concepts going. I wanted to avoid that
direction though because people seem to derive some kind of meaning and
power from triangles and other basic shapes. I looked up from working
and a lady had a pendant with a triangle and circle in just such a
configuration, confirming my reservation. Then I started going with this
top heavy design and liked it as it looks both precarious and ominous.
Made me think of that pedestal the guy from Shadow of the Colossus
places the girl on; looks like it was made for smashing people

First Stripboard Fuzz
Wired and working! I ordered more 24AWG wire but in the meantime I've been scavenging every leftover scrap from the kits I've made. This is a lot more fun and customizable than the kits, but they were a great starting point. I want to make a tube amp sometime in the future now.

DooM II: Hell on Earth, case
Sculpted some skulls onto a case I made for a fuzz I made. I was
thinking of the soul gate from DooM II: Hell on Earth, but it kind of
went in a different direction. I wasn’t sure if it’d stick or just come
off in a sheet, but it seems to have baked on the aluminum.
