@JeniRizio Why am I always trying to convince everyone that I'm real? :P

That's real life...but 3D printed.

Good morning Coso - only 16 hours to go until bed...

@lemontart something to consider, in that case, is that while Portugal is amazing in many (many) ways, it has the lowest average salary in all of Europe. Going in on a digital nomad visa is great, but can lead to concerns in the event of job loss.

Spain and southern France have similar climates and significantly better economic outlooks for those in the workforce.

@lemontart I absolutely adore Portugal! Wonderful country, amazing people. On a 10 year plan to retire there -- making yearly trips in the meantime as we zero in on the specific location to settle.

@lemontart 1. Don't ever go to Portugal -- you'll end up _immediately_ making a plan to immigrate (and make the visits with family happen anyway)

2. It depends on where in Europe you're looking at, and where you are in life. Retiring? It is easy to work out just about anywhere you choose if you can show the retirement income to justify it. Still working? There are more hoops to jump through, but it generally boils down to ensuring you're not taking jobs from locals.

Work in progress...finishing the legs over the next week and then moving on to the soft parts.

@stueytheround is it wrong that I want to photoshop the Eye of Sauron onto the tower?

It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning. It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

Finally getting around to finishing off the armor. Another couple of weeks and it should all be printed...then it's on to the finishing work.

Was trying for Mickey and Pluto…I think the printer settings are off…

@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine depends on what they're into. If Star Wars, LOTR, and similar, there's a really good Patreon I could recommend.

@wolfwoman foil over the top once brown to allow more baking time without over-browning?
