lonely girl adventures, pt. 6

i went on a long walk along the coast from one tiny town to another. it was very hilly but i persevered 💪 and i was hoping to see some specific birds but i only really saw seagulls and pigeons lol. but that’s ok, the scenery was still very beautiful, and i came across lots of unusual things. in one of the small towns i found one of those bookshops that just keeps going, which always feels special. this landscape has been incredibly useful for my next short story, which i’ve been writing in my notebook in the evenings. when i got back i had a hot bath and read my book <3

total walk: 17km

George's 1/10th scale Mata Nui Tour

This is a follow up to my previous post about a piece of concept art that depicts the island of Mata Nui as being 1/10th size it is officially listed as in most later maps.

I must first say that I was blown away with the positive reception that post received! I did see some concern that it was now too small, but I believe that's mainly down to how absolutely MASSIVE the final size is. A 90% reduction in size by no means makes Mata Nui small.

But I know not everyone has spent as much time obsessing over the size of Mata Nui as I have, so I decided to enlist everyone's favourite Ta-Koronan George to help illustrate how large this "small" Mata Nui really is.

I scaled the image of Mata Nui so that it matches the measurements on the side, so it is roughly 35km long and 17km wide. I also made a simple height map to get the Mangai volcano the appropriate 2km high.

I started out with just some simple pegs at the locations of the villages to first illustrate the basic distances.

George here starts out at the location of the iconic beach from MNOG and the end of QFTT

The beach is actually shockingly equidistant from most of the villages, Ta-Koro is closest at 2km, Ga-Koro is second closest at 6km, but the other 4 are all between 11 and 13km from the beach!

Here's a little animation to show the size of the pins, they're by no means small.

They had to be this big to be visible at all, which just goes to show how large the island still is even at 1/10th scale.

I did several shots of George standing on the edge of the Mangai's caldera. I extracted the villages from Bionicle the Legend of Mata Nui and scaled them accordingly, placing each of them where the village should be. See if you can spot them!

From the top of Mangai its 20km to the tiny islands at the very tip of Po-Wahi.

And 13km to the end of the chain of islands in southern Le-Wahi

The view of the Mangai volcano is quite impressive from the villages too. Even at this 2km height its still around 2/3rds the height of Mt Fuji or half the height of Mt Kilimanjaro.

My heightmap could use more work, the Ihu mountain range isn't really apparent, I was mainly focused on getting the Mangai at the right height.

Here's what it would look like if Onu-Koro wasn't underground.

I hope these visuals helped to show the size of the 1/10th scale Mata Nui. I really do feel it is more in line with what we see from most media and fits well with the story.

Even with this size there's one thing to remember: Raw size isn't everything. Terrain matters a lot. Its easy enough for someone now to walk a kilometre or two over straight paved roads, but considering that Mata Nui is a lush volcanic island, half the place is covered in a jungle full of massive trees and swamps, much of it is very hilly and steep, this isn't an easy place to get around in.

I'll leave you with two things: first is an old animation I made of a zoom out from Tahu on top of the full final scale Mata Nui:

This is the most I can really do with an island that scale, blender doesn't appreciate having a view distance in the hundreds of kilometres while also rendering something human scaled.

Second is a comparison between the island I've just shown you overlaid on top of the full scale.

The whole island itself has a footprint roughly the same as the full scale Mangai volcano!

Hope you all enjoyed George's vacation photos. Good night and/or happy May :^)

Slight addendum: A while ago I made this little sketch of what a view from the top of Ihu might look like, looking at all the regions. Just wanted to include it. good night

so pissed off i walked 17.8km. where was i going

so pissed off i'll watch an instagram story

[moonshynecybin]

was vale watching the podium? cause if yes then that's no doubt why marc was making sex faces during the national anthem. not only did he win on the track closest to vale's home while he knew vale was watching but he also made facial expressions that vale hasn't seen in yearsss but sometimes still sees in his nightmares

he actually had a helicopter come and fly him the 17km back to the ranch like he disappeared in a valentino rossi shaped puff of smoke he was DONE

Milk Bar: sci-fi OSR roleplaying in post-Communist Poland

Bełchatów exemplifies what the paypigs called Total Fucking Vertical Integration. They dug out coal from a hole in the ground 300m deep and 10km across, wheeled it 17km across a field, and burned it to produce 50TWh of energy a year. The city, this city, sprang up around it to keep those functions and those conveyor belts alive at any cost; total fucking vertical integration.

Eventually, the coal ran out. The Soviets found a more lucrative source of energy in the south and they would wheel it back here to justify keeping hundreds of thousands of people in the middle of nowhere. An explosion at the plant sent them reeling, leaving only you—the Communards—to pick up the pieces.

[INCOMING TRANSMISSION] [TRANSMISSION SOURCE: 17KM NORTHEAST] Hello again. So, I’ve been given orders to do something.

So we used to have archives on the Absolute Solver, this included the callback-ping. But the archives got destroyed back on Titan.

And the human remnants need to rebuild the archives.

So from what I’ve been told, I have to activate a callback-ping and you tell me anything you feel as a result.

So… I guess I’ll activate it now in

Od jebanego tygodnia próbuje zejść poniżej 72 i się nie da, n wiem co robię źle..

A tak przy okazji to czy aplikacja All trails dobrze liczy kalorie podczas jazdy rowerem?? Jakoś nie chce mi się wierzyć że po przejechaniu 3.5km spaliłam 190kcal,

Albo że podczas przejechania 17km spaliłam prawie 800💀🙏

UPDATE: SCHUDŁAM!!! N PRZYTYŁAM!! WAZE 72.2😭😭😭🙏🙏😍

chudej nocy motylki!!
