Painted the old 3D Prints

Had these models printed years back.. theyve just been sitting and gathering dust.. so decided to "update" them.

used standard acrylic paints, and a paintbrush.

Alien Centaur

oh, and both models are available for free at Thingiverse(incase you have your own printer) and at the Shapeways store, in case you just want to buy one.

Use an Ipad as a drawing tablet on Ubuntu

A few days back I decided to quit Windows. I nuked the windows c: drive during installation because I didnt even want to dual boot. And so began the journey to get my usual stuff to work on Ubuntu.

So on windows I had been using Easy Canvas but that was not available on Linux. A quick search turned up Weylus and heres the installation instructions if your looking for a similar solution.

Step 1
Lets use "wget" in the terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T) to download the latest version of the program.


    wget https://github.com/H-M-H/Weylus/releases/download/v0.11.2/Weylus_0.11.2_amd64.deb

Once this finishes, proceed with

Step 2
To install it use the following



     sudo apt install ./Weylus_0.11.2_amd64.deb

Step 3
Run the program from apps



Step 4
Set a passcode and click "Start"

Step 5
use your ipad camera to get the link from the QR code.
This will open a tab in your default browser where you can now remotely view and work on this computer. The Apple Pencil's pressure sensitivity just worked for me. 

The lines are a bit jittery.. so I will keep looking for other software or maybe run Easy Canvas with Wine and give that a shot. Will post updates here.
