Here's an oldie kit upgrade I did for the same client I did the garden scale trains for. This was an obscure resin kit I repainted into "Maintenance of way" yellow, hand lettered, and then did a really fun weathering job to match the real RGS plow. Note the VERY nuanced rust vs. shiny steel on the front plow and flanger beneath the car itself. Apparently the kit is from Durango Press if you wanna build one of your own.

and I knew some telegraph offices sparked and caught fire during the flares but I didn't know they they continued to send messages purely on the geomagnetic current, no batteries at all. Apparently this went on for hours!!

Eggbug needs help catching the Eggfish in time for his (late) birthday party! (It's catch and release, don't worry) (Reduce Motion must be disabled for it to work)

an animated fishing game created using css. 4 different eggbug fish swim across the screen while an eggbug fishes for them.

thanks to @infinityio, @bethposting, @velociraptor, and @emmy-chop for the fishbug art!!

if you are having trouble catching the fish, make sure that you are clicking the center of the button

this was made possible with the help of @blep's Prechoster, @oatmealine's and @Corncycle's #copost tutorial posts, as well as my wonderful urge to use computers in all the wrong ways. An extra shoutout to my history teacher whose basement flooded, giving me time today to finish this.
