slowatus notice

this. is called a silkscreen frame.



That top frame up there has a piece of silk stretched on it. You put ink on it, swing it down on a sheet of paper, and transfer it onto the sheet of paper by pressing the screen to the paper. That's the short part. The long part is propping up the silkscreen, taking a bottle of screenfiller, and blotting out the parts of the screen that will stay the color you printed on the run before. Depending on how complicated your print is, this could take a very long time. And in between everything, you have to wash your screen or else it gets clogged and your print turns out salty and gross.

This all, as you might imagine, takes a very long time. Which is why I haven't been around. PLUS I FOUND OUT THAT BBS HAS A LAST STAGE THANKS GAME 8( /RAGES.

so tags might be crawling along until whenever I get this print done (crossing my fingers for this weekend, but THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN, MORE LIKELY THAN NOT.) I AM SO SORRY ABOUT MY PROMISES FOR ACTIVITY AAA. i'll be back when the rest of you guys are, OTL

MY CHARACTERS FOR REFERENCE

SEE YOU SOON

It's okay!! Game stuff can always be put off. IT'S NO BIG THANG.

Ahaha :( Yeah, I've only ever done one, because I asked a girl to teach me how to. And I've never had to use them for a project, but I can see that, yeah.

Well I'm not sure if anything has because his thread in Axel's intro post is going slow enough idk if he's going to ping that Axel forgot him...and I had him make a post since then that was fairly un-upset so...idefk. But at some point he's probably gonna need a hug, braintwin.
