Game Reviews: Just Cause 3, The Witcher 3, Kingdom Hearts DDD
Just Cause 3 Game Review Just Cause 3 was a pretty decent game. It is a real pity that the game was so short. The cities were larger, but there were a lot fewer places to visit. Frankly, the game was a lot larger in the second part. Something that I hated about the game was the loading screen. It took forever to get nowhere. The game also explained a bit about Rico’s origin. His family was killed by the president of his home country. I think it takes place in Italy or something like it. The bases were pretty...
BJD Merchant Doll in Floral Winter Dress
Today, I wanted to show you Mein in a cute floral dress. The dress seemed a little too thick for summer. So, it is a winter themed photoshoot. Right now, in the lower half of the world, it is winter. It works just as well. I gathered around her a bunch of trinkets for this photoshoot. I envisioned her as a maiden that lives in a remote winter area. She has gone down to civilization to sell all the random junk she has made. So, this is the inspiration behind this bjd doll photoshoot. I took close up and far...
4 Pouring Paintings: Pink Pastel Drop, Pink Swipe on Orange, Flower Mold and Pan Flag Swipe
Today, I wanted to show you my latest pouring paintings. The videos for all these paintings are already up and about in Youtube and Tiktok. I used wooden panels for these pouring paintings. The smooth surface helps the paint flow better. It saves me the trouble of having to dilute so much my paints. I took two photographs of these paintings. The first set of photographs show the dry paintings. The finished results sometimes look a little different. Other times, the variation isn’t much. This time I dried the paintings indoor. It was raining so I wasn’t able to dry...
Game Reviews: Dragon Age 2, Divinity 2, Kingdom of Amalur, Tropico 5
Dragon Age 2 Game Review Dragon Age 2 was not the best of the lot; still it was plenty of fun. The game was about a dwarf named Varrick. He had a friend he wanted to protect named Hawk. Since he was being interrogated, he created a story based a little on the truth. Anyhow, the game is about Varrick’s farfetched tale of the champion of Kirkwall. All that occurs in the game is irrelevant since, Varrick was making most of it up. It becomes more certain in Dragon Age Inquisition when Cassandra finally meets Hawk. Well, that is beside...
Cantina Catrina in Dadeland Mall Foodie Restaurant Review
Last weekend, we ate at Cantina Catrina. We always pass by that restaurant whenever we go out shopping. After reading the menu, we finally got curious enough to go eat at this Mexican restaurant. The first thing worth mentioning is the look of the place. It is themed after Dia de Los Muertos. It has a lot of fun skull decorations. In the front of the store, there is a statue of Catrina’s ghost, welcoming you to her Cantina. Her skull form has a bit of a Frida Kahlo vibe. I would imagine that this is what Frida looks like...
