Ardyn DLC title screen

Did I do this before? I’m sure someone has done it before. I like the angle better than the one they give you in the actual title screen. He has a tiny almost-smile.

I tried to Ansel the other version of title screen, with Ardyn and his girlfriend, whats-her-name. But their legs/clothing are really awkward looking while lying under the tree when you try to pull out the view. There’s a reason they only show their shoulders/faces I guess. Pfft.

Background test

I used Promcoli BECAUSE IT’S HILARIOUS.

I cropped out the background from one of those garuda effect shots for greenscreen use. More muted neutral tones and again, it’s nice to have something that’s less “flat” vs. a solid color. Why oh why didn’t Nvidia let us have more than 2 at a time….

I’ve also gone back to no glasses Ignis for a bit. I like glasses-on and glasses-off just about equally.

…I forgot Gladio. >.>   I need to get more for a Gladio-pic-spam post. Gotta keep it … marginally … fair …  :p

Garuda summon sky (scenic)

Garuda summon creates a huge dark/cloudy sky box. It’s rather pretty in a muted way.
If you look at the top center of the first picture, the black dot is Garuda. 😀

Also … Happy New Year.

I went to the store last night and bought two random bottles of cabernet sauvignon. I almost never drink (maybe once or twice a year at most) but was in the mood/it’s a holiday right. I know absolutely zip about wine, but I can confidently say that the difference between a $50 bottle of wine and a $20 bottle of wine is …. thirty dollars. 😛  After initial tasting I then “ruined” both by dumping a mix of 7-Up and diet Mt. Dew into them for a strongish “wine cooler” effect. All alcoholic beverages are much better tasting when you can taste a lot less of the actual alcohol.

Many happy returns and all that.
