Surviving the Storm: Updates, New Art, and Exciting Plans Ahead!

Hey Thangs Community,

I hope this message finds you all well. I wanted to update you on some recent events and share an exciting new idea.

As some of you might be aware, Claremore, Oklahoma, was hit by a severe tornado on the night of May 25, 2024. The tornado caused extensive damage throughout the town, resulting in significant disruption. Many homes and businesses, including mine, were heavily impacted. The tornado, classified as an EF-3, brought down power lines, uprooted trees, and caused structural damage to numerous buildings. News 9 and KRMG have reported that around 23 people were injured, with three sustaining serious injuries.

The tornado came dangerously close to our house, destroying a gas station that I could see from my home if it weren't for a building in the way. It also uprooted the last two big trees my parents had, dropping them on their backyard shed. They were incredibly lucky that their house wasn't hit.

After almost a week without power, things are finally getting back to normal, and I'm excited to dive back into work. I’ve been brainstorming some new ideas and would love to hear your thoughts on a potential project.

I've been toying with the idea of mixing characters from X-Men '97 and SpongeBob. I think it could make for some really fun and unique 3D models. What do you all think? Would you be interested in seeing a mash-up of these two worlds?

Your feedback and ideas are invaluable to me, and I can't wait to hear what you think about this crossover concept.

Thank you for your continued support and for being part of this amazing community. Your encouragement means the world to me, especially now.

Stay safe and take care,

Chris
