Pugh, however, didn't love the attention the steamy sequences brought. If Wilde had her way, there would have been more: Wilde acknowledged in a recent interview with The Associated Press that she "had to cut some shots" for the trailer when "the MPAA came down hard on me." The first footage previewed the film's retro setting and also its sensual side, with glimpses of Styles and Pugh's characters getting busy in a bedroom and also an oral sex scene on a dining room table. 'Don't Worry Darling' review: At least Florence Pugh sparkles in buzzy but flat retro thriller R-rated 'Don't Worry Darling' arrived with a truly saucy trailer Here's everything you need to know about the drama, including Wilde's responses to many of them on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" days before the movie's debut: Not hip to the movie's various scandals and controversies? Don't worry, darlings, we've got you. ![]() ![]() But for months leading up to its release, director Olivia Wilde's film has been generating buzz – and not in a positive way, unless you're all about Hollywood canoodling, passive-aggressive interviews, celebrity feuds, icy red-carpet appearances and manly loogies. The movie, which stars Florence Pugh and Harry Styles as a young married couple living in a dreamy 1950s-style suburban community that isn't as ideal as it looks, arrived in theaters Sept. All the drama surrounding the new psychological thriller "Don't Worry Darling" isn't taking place onscreen. It's happening in real life. ![]()

![]() ![]() There were plot twists that surprised me, although some threads took a bit too long to plow through. ![]() Living as a native among the Mohawks, he provided an interesting contrast to Elizabeth and her way of doing things. Overall, I think, I liked this part of the book best, when the story was sorting through these two completely different ways of living and raising children. Still, however, several “scenes,” and truthfully, sometimes they felt beautiful and the timing in the plot fit just right but then many times I felt like our author said, “oh, it’s been a while since we had a scene, we better have one now,” and that annoyed me. Reminded me somewhat of Outlander, although not quite so steamy ( that one has a lot of sexual scenes). If you have read (or watched) Last of the Mohicans, several of the characters in this book will be familiar to you, which was fun.Set in a remote, mountainous New York village, in a United States that has only just won its independence, Into the Wilderness is the story of Elizabeth Middleton, recently of England. Trying to control her own destiny with a determined nature and a deep desire for equality, the village of Paradise seems to be designed to drive Elizabeth crazy. With the strain of relations among the natives, part-natives and the white newcomers, in a world where life seems to sometimes hang by a thread, Elizabeth also finds that a life in the wilderness has no end of lessons to teach her about life, love and what is worth sacrificing for. ![]() ![]()
![]() One of the smaller needle gauges available (but not the smallest) and sometimes referred to as Bugpins. ALTHOUGH THEY MEAN THE SAME THING! Needle manufacturers and tattoo suppliers use both terminologies depending on where the needles are from and being sold to i.e. The gauge is indicated by a number (usually 8, 10 or 12), and diameter by a millimetre measurement. The narrower the gauge or diameter, the more controlled and finer the flow of ink is. The gauge of a tattoo needle is directly linked to ink flow. Now you know all about different needle groupings or types, it’s time to look at needle diameters, also known as gauges. Flat shader needles are also common in semi-permanent makeup.Ĭommonly Used for: Some line work. Flat needles are good for intricate shading such as in geometric patterns and some mandala work. Larger flat needles can be used for colour fills and shading as they deliver more ink quickly with just one pass. This means clearer, darker lines with just one stroke. These needles are used for lining because their shape lets them deliver more ink to the skin. Flat Shader Needlesįlat shader needles are pins that are soldered in a straight line on the needle bar. This helps for any intricate shading or colour work where you still want it to perform as a magnum with many pins but not as spread out.Ĭommonly Used for: Shading and colour packing. The pins on double stack magnums, or double stacks, are packed much more tightly together. It’s also less damaging to the skin and helps with soft shading.Ĭommonly Used for: Black and grey. Meaning the edges of the needle run along the skin with more conformity, allowing for better dispersal of ink and a more consistent line. Curved Magnum Shader needlesĬurved magnum shaders – also known as soft magnums, soft edge magnums and round magnums – are used in the same way except the pins are arranged so they arch at the centre. See below.Ĭommonly Used for: Black and grey. There are a few different variations of magnum needles. Less passes are required over an area to work the ink in meaning less trauma to the skin. Magnums hold and deliver a lot of ink, making them perfect for large areas of colour packing and shading. Magnum shaders are the preferred grouping or needle type for pretty much all shading work. Meaning, for as well as doing thicker lines, they can also be used for colour filling and basic shading.Ĭommonly Used for: Some line work. Round shaders are very similar to round liners except the pins are not placed as close together. ![]() If too much ink was let out, lining would be quite a task!Ĭommonly Used for: Dot work. Lining needles, once dipped in your ink, will let only small amounts of ink out to then be worked into the skin. ![]() 01 very fine, 14 very thick) as well as the thickness/gauge of each pin (see Tattoo Needle Sizes below). The thickness of the line will depend on the number round liner you choose (e.g. ![]() The pins on round liner needles are soldered in a round pattern to produce crisp, clean lining tattoo work. Below we go into more detail on each type. No need to worry though! Here’s where the learning begins.Īll these options fall into six basic groupings of tattoo needles: Round Liners, Round Shaders, Magnum Shaders, Curved Magnum Shaders, Flat Shaders and Double Stacks. When looking at a page of tattoo needles on a website or in a catalogue, it can seem a little overwhelming with all the different options available.

In reality, once it does makes sense, you’ll wonder why you didn’t get it in the first place! Whether you are newbie to the tattoo industry or a seasoned professional, the large selection of different tattoo needle groupings, diameters, tapers and needle counts can be one hell of a headache to understand. ![]() ![]() ![]() I will not give an exact end date to avoid a possible voting exploit. We will still raise funds for the first milestone up until February 3rd. Primarily because Patreon currently charges at the first of the month. We have several new Patreon contributors waiting for billing. Any additional contributions after voting starts will go toward Milestone #2. Once respective platforms approve the DLCs, and I upload the builds, I will distribute the DLC keys via email, Patreon PM, and forum PM. Remember to check periodically for polling and other threads on our official forums! I may ask the community opinions on new features and what have you. Thank you again for your support! I look forward to providing more GearCity features and improving existing ones. Last month, D Ruth Bavousett wrote about creating sheet music with the Lilypond "music engraving program," and it got me thinking about MuseScore-which she also mentioned in the article, but in passing-and what a powerful tool it is for musical notation. Therefore, in an a continuation of an unofficial musical notation series, I present to you MuseScore, the open source WYSIWYG sheet music creation suite. MuseScore is to music notation what a word processor is to, say, articles about open source it's the tool that you want to take for granted. MuseScore is a tool you hope will become so familiar to you that it fades into the background, stays well out of your way, and possibly, on occasion, makes your life easier. As with everything else, this boils down to practice, but even to the uninitiated, MuseScore is intuitive, while also maintaining the complexity required for a professional, readable, musical score. MuseScore is a cross-platform application, so you can download and install it on any computer. On Linux, it's available from your repository (or for us Slackware users).Īfter installation, MuseScore may be listed as mscore, depending on how you have your desktop configured ( mscore is the name of the executable, but many desktops list it by its description text, MuseScore, in application menus). If you can't find one, look for the other. When you launch MuseScore, it loads an example piece by default. If you want to open to an empty project, change that behavior in Edit | Preferences. The demo piece is a good example of what's possible with MuseScore, but the best way to learn it is to use it, so let's start a fresh project. To begin an empty project, select File | New. The new project wizard steps you through creation of a new project you can start from scratch or you can use a template. Once you've stepped through the setup screens, you're left facing blank staves.Īll settings you choose here can be changed later, so no pressure to commit to anything. That must mean it's time to start inputting music. MuseScore's workspace is pretty intuitive, regardless of your musical knowledge. The main work area is the sheet music itself, where you draw the notes (which are listed as clickable icons across the top toolbar). ![]() On the left are palettes providing access to special musical elements such as glissando notation, fermatas, dynamics, repeats and codas, and so on. If you're just starting out, you can use the mouse to input notes. It works exactly as you'd expect select a note, point to the place on the staff that you want it to go, and click. There are toolbars and palettes and menus to give you access to every minor detail you could ever possibly want to enter into sheet music.īut that's not usually how it's done in the real world. Keyboard entryĪs any composer knows, the barrier to actually setting music down to paper is efficiency. It's work enough to compose a coherent piece of music, and more work still to arrange it for different instruments, so if you have to add the overhead of data entry into that mix, it changes from being a labor of love to just being, well, labor.įor that reason, the most common method of editing musical scores is keyboard entry it's the most flexible and efficient way to get data into the computer. ![]() ![]() ![]() Your Outer has no character or personality – they may as well be a featureless robot for all it impacts the game. The ability to switch these on the fly means you can always design your character based on how you’re feeling in the moment, but don’t expect anyone in the game to acknowledge the dramatic shifts in style that you are making. In Daemon X Machina you can change your mind about any decision you made, even skin color or gender. In most games you’d be locked to changing your hair style and maybe your hair color, possibly your eyes using colored contacts. Thanks to the power of futuristic surgery, you can change literally anything about your Outer. The lab is where you upgrade and customize your Outer and is unlocked rather early in the demo. Now if you end up not being satisfied with the character you design, there’s nothing to worry about – you can easily undo every decision you made in the lab. I ended up going with this design for my Outer. By contrast, men’s faces can look significantly older or more square to give them more dramatic differences. This is also aggravated by the fact that all of the women face shapes are rather similar to keep them into a narrow, stereotypically attractive spectrum. With women you don’t have the option to design facial hair, so it limits the variety in your character design possibilities. Daemon X Machina lacks accessories or outfits, which means that you are limited only to facial features and tones. ![]() Typically games give guys two boring styles and no potential to accessorize or change things up. ![]() This is one of the few games I have ever played with character customization where women actually have less compelling options than men. Remember how there are only six hairstyles? Those same six are available regardless of gender selection, so there’s no way to expand your options. There’s a bit of variation by gender but not much. I really enjoy the option to design the eyes separately. You can customize each eye separately, yet tattoos are lumped in with scars so really there are only scars. So while you can make your character any race you can imagine, chances are low that you’ll find hair to match. For example, there are only six hairstyles available in the game. You can customize every detail about your character’s head: hair and eye color, hair style, separate designs for each eye, face shape, nose shape, mouth shape, makeup, facial hair, scars or tattoos – there are lots of customizable pieces, but how much you can customize each one varies. While Daemon X Machina hasn’t been on my radar up to this point, the opportunity to try out a demo piqued my interest.ĭaemon X Machina opens with character creation, and the tools for designing what’s called your Outer are pretty extensive in some ways and limited in others. That time came after last week’s Nintendo Direct when a demo version of the game called Prototype Missions was released onto the e-shop. This action-packed trailer was our first introduction to Daemon X Machina, but it would be months before we as players finally got to try out the game for ourselves. It featured giant mechs battling while guitars shredded in the background, the mechanical warriors kicking up dust with their boosters as swords swung and bullets flew. 2 Versus Mode and climb the leaderboard rankings to become the top mercenary.The opening of Nintendo’s E3 2018 presentation gave us our first look at a game that seemed quite outside of the Big N’s wheelhouse.
