#marching cubes

[oheboi]

[the-shadiest-tomato]

Here's a close up of my deconstructing the cube page if anyone wants to take a crack at building it yourself. Mines made out of wood scraps.

How I've broken it down was into directions (the first time we see it, the left side is 'east' and the right side is 'west'). You get it. Every block was assigned a letter so I could put it back perfectly every time cause so many of the blocks look the same but have a very slight size difference that throws the whole thing off if placed elsewhere.

The scale is not completely jacked beyond comprehension, but I started with one block and scaled the whole thing around that, so I really had no idea how big it would actually be. Mine is 7 by 6 inches.

Honestly looking at it now, idk how I did it.

It was mostly a process of fuck around and find out. I needed to use every version and bootleg I could to get every angle and see all the details and even then, I'm still confused.

To more or less ruin the illusion, there's a third triangle that doesn't fit anywhere and Whizzer's headstone replaced two blocks [H and I]. So it either hangs out behind the cube or inside the pocket of space it has.

The whole thing I want to say took me like a week of sawing and sanding wood. (Minus the painting). But I was really determined to get it done before my interest wavered the slightest. Not that it did of course, I was eager to get to work on my next Falsettos-related project. [A hand carved chessboard set] if y'all want to see that, I'll be happy to show you.

the astral express has one of their bimonthly game nights.

characters⟡ march 7th, stelle, himeko, welt yang, dan heng, pom pom

relationships⟡ stelle/march

word count⟡ 1.1k

game night on the Express had gotten more infrequent ever since stelle had joined the crew. the reason for game nights going from weekly to bimonthly events was because the very first game night after stelle came onboard the Express, she made a game of uno last for 12 hours. at the end of the game pom pom had almost banned card games from the Express altogether.

march had to beg pom pom not to throw the deck of cards into the cold expanse of space. and even with promising to help clean the Express from top to bottom she just barely convinced pom pom to spare the poor cards.

march looked down at her cards, eyes flickering from her hand to the pile in front of her and back. the current color was green and she didn't have any green. quietly crossing her fingers, march waited for her turn, hoping that the color would change soon.

it didn't. crap.

march didn't want to use her +4, but she didn't have any other choice, so she placed it down on the pile.

"uh, blue!" march checked her cards to see what color she had the most of before deciding.

"challenge." stelle called out, right next to her. march quickly flipped her cards so stelle could see that she didn't have any other card she could have used.

march stuck her tongue out at stelle as stelle groaned and pulled six cards from the deck. serves her right for doubting me, march hummed to herself.

"uno." everyone's heads whipped towards himeko. there was a new common enemy. march devoted the rest of her thinking power to doing her part to make sure that himeko wouldn't win so she would have a chance at victory.

when march's turn came back, there was a red 4 on the top of the pile. unfortunately the only card march had that would work was a red skip. i hope himeko doesn't have a red, she internally prayed to akivili, placing down her card. stelle grumbled, obviously upset that her turn was skipped.

march looked at himeko, practically holding her breath, and watched as himeko laid her last card, a red 1, on the top of the pile. march sighed, handing her cards to welt who was reshuffling the deck and slumping into the foot of the couch that she was using as a backrest.

"one more round?" stelle suggested, looking even more determined to win next time.

"sorry but don't know if my back can take another round of sitting on the floor." mr. yang's eyes wrinkled apologetically.

"and i think it's time for pom pom and i to head to bed." himeko said, watching pom pom who was unsuccessfully hiding their yawns.

stelle groaned, crossing her arms. secretly march agreed with her, she didn't want to go to bed yet.

"we could play some mario kart." mr. yang suggested, handing the deck of cards, now safely in their case, back to himeko. the second the words came out of his mouth, stelle was up on her feet and dragging march towards mr. yang's room.

from behind them, she heard mr. yang laugh, presumably at stelle's eagerness, before he easily caught up to them with his long legs.

stelle only let go of march's hand to knock on the door of the archives and drag dan heng out to play with them. he had gone to his room a bit earlier in the night, wanting to finish up some entries in the databank.

stelle emerged out of the archives, dragging a half-asleep dan heng behind her.

before long they had settled into mr. yang's room, crowded around the small projector broadcasting mario kart onto a blank wall. mr. yang was sitting in his desk chair, the only chair in the room and dan heng was sitting on his bed, still looking like he had just been woken up. stelle and march were curled together on the floor, their backs against mr. yang's bed.

march chose rose gold princess peach and the cutest cycle she could find. she had to be the cutest, even in video games! stelle chose yoshi, a look of feral glee taking over her features as the race was loading in. no, march, focus! stop looking at your girlfriend and focus on the race!

the countdown sounded and they were off. almost immediately stelle and mr. yang pulled ahead of the pack. dan heng lagged behind and march was having a difficult time turning.

as the race wore on march fell more and more behind and stelle and mr. yang got more and more into the race. they become fell eerily silent.

march huffed as she once again fell off of the map, puffing her cheeks out in anger. she was beginning to resent the cloud thing that kept pulling her up.

mr. yang won the first race with stelle in close second. dan heng and march both came in close to last.

"you can't fall off of the next map march so don't worry." mr. yang reassured her before starting the next race. march felt both happy that she wouldn't fall off of the map again and embarrassed that he had noticed.

despite not being able to physically fall off of the map, march still did abysmally bad during the second race. dan heng had woken up more and now was in contention for the podium but march keep getting hit with shells and making horrible turns that spun her out.

the second race ended with mr. yang in first place again, stelle firmly in second place, and dan heng just squeaking into third. march didn't even want to look at her place in the leaderboard. why can't we ever play games that i'm good at, march grumbled to herself.

during the third and last race, march had the horrible horrible thought to try and sabotage stelle by distracting her. she suppressed the idea, tucking it away for later. stelle seems too enthralled in the game for me to do that.

march focused in, doing her best to stay fully on the track. and it paid off a little, as march slowly crept up the ranks. she still didn't finish anywhere close to the podium but at least she was in the middle of the pack as opposed to the bottom.

as the final screen played, mr. yang's character in first place with stelle and dan heng close behind, stelle stood up, pointing in mr. yang's direction. march followed her, feeling exhausted all of a sudden.

"next time, i'm going to win." stelle promised mr. yang, a fire alit in her eyes. mr. yang just smiled, his mouth sharpening slightly.

march knew that stelle was probably going to spend the next several weeks honing her talent in mario kart just for the chance to beat mr. yang in the next game night. well maybe i can get better too then!

they waved goodbye to dan heng and mr. yang before heading off to bed together.

march hey i wanted to ask you somethin--- MARCH?! WHY ARE YOU ICE CUBES?! GIRL NO! I KNOW I SAID YOU WERE COOL, BUT I DIDn'T MEAN IT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!

“…”

the ice cubes don’t say anything back but they seem to melt a little at the corner like a little tear. if it is a cry for help or a hello to her dear friend in the absence of her voice, who can say?

This episode is just so goofy! I think it's definitely on the far-side of the live-action cartoon mentality that they had during filming. Cartoon logic everywhere and I can't really complain. They just don't make shows like this anymore.

The songs from this one are really catchy! Especially Alice's song and (of course) "Funky Spelunker". I seem to remember that "Funky Spelunker" was brought up on a podcast somewhere by Harry or Robert. They said that even after the show stopped airing they still had people mention the song up to them. This amuses me because this episode wasn't available to watch until it was reuploaded on D+. "Funky Spelunker" persisted!

This picture was a little difficult because I know it just looks like Rabbit is in an ice cube. But, like... they did nothing to differentiate Uncle Hasenpfeffer from Rabbit. (They even cast another Patrick to play him.) It looks like they used a Rabbit suite in the ice prison, even down to the black vest. So, yeah... without context this image is even stranger. This is the last of Rabbit's surprise relatives showing up, which I'm not upset about. They could have done some really wacky things with it and they kind of ended that long-running joke with a dud.

currently catching up on queuing a ton of art and my god. there is so much i dont post on here you just gotta be within discord vicinity of me to see me truly insane

[the-shadiest-tomato]

Could you give anymore info on the block? I want to make it

Alright, here is the most detailed breakdown of the Falsettos cube I think I could possibly give. If I need to post a video, ask. Anyway, there are gaps and it's imperfect [she is very gorgeous to me] but considering I was mainly working with a handsaw and a crooked jigsaw, it turned out pretty good.

Also note that some of the blocks are glued together and I couldn't get rid of the seam, so follow the diagram closer than the block.

I have made all new diagrams inside and out and accompanied them with pictures of my cube. The measurements are all in inches, spare a millimeter for each of them cause I can barely read a ruler on a good day, and I was watching Real Genius when I made this so I was distracted.

So good luck, fellow enthusiast [s].

And alas I have reached the image limit, and the inside was a pain to figure out, so I shan't leave you to figure that out alone. Consider this a part 1.

I shall return.
