I live in Phoenix, Arizona and this post can go fuck itself. I TRIED to go for a walk outside the other day, and it was 109F with 40% humidity. I can do that, or I can go to the air conditioned gym...

Yeah, that was my experience with that method, too. I'll try the Vallejo on the next test - thanks for sharing!

Oh wow! Would you mind sharing your recipe for that shade of green? I've been trying to paint salamanders for a while and just cannot find the right shade of green to match the lore art.

And that remaining 20% only because it might also be the Jungle Cruise in DisneyLAND, California?

I was (virtually) at the Aug 16 briefing. The AP article doesn't mention it, but they're calling the design the XBW-1. Cool stuff!

I work for a subcontractor that's been consulting for this project since November and even virtually attended some of the Wednesday briefing mentioned in the article. The body is actually designed specifically to work with existing airport infrastructures.... Much much much cheaper not to reinvent the wheel when you don't have to. The passenger airline is actually their biggest long-term goal: the air force/refuelling use case is how they plan to fund the long-term goals.

Also, I believe this is roughly the size of a 737 - the passenger deck is no wider than a 747s, and it's not like window seats on the bigger jets aren't comfortable.

Mythbusters and Deep Rock Galactic. I think this one works out okay.
