My commercial empire!

I mentioned last time that I won a spot in Busy Ben’s Vehicle Lot, in the Boats section.
Monday was the first day we could move in, and I’ve moved in!
Well, sort of:

Right now the only thing you can actually buy is the Preview Version of the Seaspray 1.1; a nice 1-prim 1-rider zipping-around boat with [...]

Yet more made things!

I taught the ThingMaker about cylinders (hence the PacMan shapes, from cutting cylinders) and about sort of vaguely monochromatic color schemes (hence the orange one upper-left, the first time that code got exercised).
Woot yay. :)

Here’s [...]

Region Mapper Update

As will be obvious, I have switched from the nontraditional “as seen from below, with north to [...]

New random project: Region Mapper

So on a complete whim and for no reason that I know of (possibly related to the whole mainland aesthetics discussion), I decided to write a little script that would list all the parcels in a region, in some sort of map-like form.
