![]() If you’re a content creator and you like to record your art process, there’s even a built-in timelapse function you can turn on before you create then export as a video whenever you’re finished! ![]() I was very impressed with the range of painting tools I had access to and there’s a great amount of free built-in assets such as characters or props you can use to stretch your creativity. The moment I opened up CSP I was basically given all the information I needed in order to begin creating immediately! "My experience with using Clip Studio Paint was fantastic and I highly recommend it for any artists and also upcoming artists looking for their first art software. The next thing I want to try is incorporating 3D elements! I’ve been using Clip Studio for around 3 months now, and feel as though I have only just scratched the surface of it’s capabilities. It made life so much easier without having to flip back and forth between panels on the tablet screen, allowing me to just concentrate on drawing. In fact, it may have even been better than some of the strictly animation-focused programs I have used.Īnother feature that impressed me was the ability to pair my smartphone with my drawing tablet and use it as a remote. The animation feature was a particular favorite of mine - it’s a lot more intuitive than most of the other non-animation oriented drawing programs, and much smoother and more effective. The big selling point, up until I actually used the program, was the ability to create comic panels automatically! So that was the first thing I tried, and I was immediately convinced! But then it turned out Clip Studio can do much, much more than that! I had been aware of Clip Studio Paint for a while, as it came strongly recommend by a lot of my cartoonist friends. The way it spreads the paint and blends colors makes it feel incredibly intuitive! And then, when I feel like playing with layer blending modes or exploring other tools, the full potential of Clip Studio Paint truly reveals itself. I especially love the Oil paint brush, which is one of the default brushes, and probably the one I use the most. Believe it or not, that doesn't even scratch the surface of what the app can do! Despite that, I'm still able to create hyper-dynamic and natural-feeling illustrations. On the subject of coloring, Clip Studio Paint allows you to take whatever approach you like: as for myself, I usually only go with one coloring layer and only use two or three basic brushes. If I need to retouch my work digitally afterwards, the app has all the same inking pens I use when inking by hand, so I always end up with a convincingly traditional finish! I do my inking by hand, and once it's scanned, the screentones and action lines built into Clip Studio Paint blend seamlessly with my pen-and-paper drawing. For those who are used to a previous version of Clip Studio Paint, this operation is now performed by selecting the tool and then selecting > on the Sub Tool palette.In my daily life, I use Clip Studio Paint for two things: the screentones and coloring features. ![]() The initial configuration of the sub tools has been changed from Ver.1.6.2. Select the tool and select from the Sub Tool palette. When is turned off, allows you to add an auxiliary vanishing point without changing the perspective drawing method. When Change perspective drawing method is OFF ![]() The auxiliary vanishing point will be added at the intersection of the guide line. Beware that for rulers and rulers, the result may differ depending on the setting on the Tool Property palette. To add a vanishing point, select the sub tool and set the process to in the Tool Property palette. The sub tool of the tool allows you to add or delete a vanishing point. ![]() ![]() ![]() Display/hide its location on the mapĬemeteries: Eastonville Cemetery (1), Bluff Cemetery (2), Table Rock Cemetery (3).

I have thousands of Sierra Madre chips and I'll still try and lug that scrap metal away with me so I can theoretically build a few more Repair Kits that I'll never use. It does not matter that I have running water from every base location and safehouse or a few dozen RadAways. Do I have 30 Purified Waters? Man I am taking that shit with me out of Dead Money. Compound this with the fact that I always play hardcore and inventory management really does matter. Fallout New Vegas DLC and main game cross overs. But as a well-conditioned gamer, I'm a kleptomaniacal completionist that has to loot everything even vaguely useful. I take perverse pleasure in the crafting content OWB offers, but paradoxically, I hate micromanaging my inventory, especially through all the damn menus of the Pipboy. The speakers were not that frustrating to me except in "final dungeon" leading up to the gold vault and even that was not a dealbreaker. Part of it is that I was much less of a Hoardy MacHoarderson and just kept my baggage light. Some of it, I think, is that I was rushing through the content a bit much to really just enjoy it.

Except for turnovers and free throw percentage, Jordan’s numbers fell in all eight statistical categories. Jordan won 75% of his chances to defeat an opponent when he was faced with a 30-10 record. Statistics show that LeBron is far more dominant in the clutch than Jordan. These are the results: Statistics on LeBron and Jordan Clutch I compiled all LeBron’s playoff statistics, and compared them to games in the elimination round as well as games where they could eliminate their rivals. LeBron on the other side has been criticized throughout his career for not being as “clutch” as MJ and Kobe. Jordan is a legend for being one the most clutch players of all time. You must be able to win games with your teammates and be the alpha male. Jordan LeBron Game Winners Which was more clutch: LeBron or Jordanīeing able to make the big shots for your team is one of the most important aspects of basketball. LeBron is a better performer than Jordan on an individual level in both their regular-season career and the Finals. Jordan won more games, and has an overall better record in the Finals. ![]() Jordan has a disadvantage defensively as LeBron leads in blocks and almost equals him in steals. However, he excels in rebounding and passing, surpassing Jordan by a significant margin. He is even at two-point field goal percentage. LeBron’s shooting efficiency is slightly reduced in the Finals. These career stats prove that King James can excel in every aspect of the game. LeBron also turned the ball over more often per game. However, both are dead in blocks per match. Michael had more steals per match, while LeBron was second. Michael is first in NBA history and LeBron is second. They are nearly equal in efficiency ratings. MJ’s free throw percentage is much higher than Jordan’s, which helps boost the points per game statistic. LeBron is also an excellent rebounder and passer than Jordan. LeBron, however, is more efficient and shoots better from the two- and three-point line. Jordan was better overall but LeBron scored higher. Statistics for LeBron James show that he is an overall better basketball player. LeBron James vs Michael Jordan Finals Stats Player LeBron still has a long way to go but his dominance in acquiring his fourth ring has brought him closer to his goal of six rings or more. James has never been able to achieve the Defensive Player Of The Year award. He has also been awarded three additional All-Defense selections as well as one MVP award. LeBron has a better Finals record and he has two more rings. Jordan currently holds the lead in all accolades except Rookie of Year, All-Star appearances and All-NBA Team.

To end the debate about who is the greatest, we need to examine the key factors that determine who the greatest. Basketball teams can be changed entirely by one player, unlike football which has 53 players. ![]() Bill Russell, who won 11 titles in his 13-year playing career, would have been the greatest ever player if they did.īecause of the influence one player can have on the game, it is important to know who is the GOAT of basketball. The rings argument often puts MJ ahead LeBron when it comes to deciding who is the GOAT. As we all know Jordan has six rings in six appearances. He now has a record of 4-6 after he has already won ten. LeBron was recently in the eighth consecutive NBA Finals series. He even wore the number 23 after he joined the league. LeBron modeled after him and wore his shoes. Since LeBron James was named The Chosen One there has been much discussion about whether he can surpass Michael Jordan as the greatest player of all time.

I expect Bruce Arians (6-3 postseason) and the Bucs to come in with a better gameplan than Dallas HC Mike McCarthy, who is just 10-9 in his postseason career despite spending 12-plus seasons with Aaron Rodgers as his quarterback. ![]() ![]() But Prescott, who's just 1-3 in the playoffs in his career, is being asked to come into hostile territory and take down a living legend. 500 (5-4) at Raymond James.īrady is not the player he used to be - no sane person would argue otherwise - and the injuries on the Tampa side are concerning. Dallas surrendered at least 26 points in three of its last four, headlined by a 40 spot against the Jaguars (including OT).ĭallas was also considerably better at home (8-1) than on the road (4-4), while Tampa managed to go above. They finished the season ranked top-five in both scoring offense (27.5 PPG) and scoring defense (20.1 PPG).īut the defense put in some ugly performances as the season wound down. When the Cowboys are clicking, they look borderline unstoppable. STATES: AZ, CO, IA, IL, IN, KS, LA, MI, MD, NJ, NY, PA, TN, VA Dallas defense is too hard to trust Notably, guard Nick Leverett and tight end Kyle Rudolph were "DNP" (did not participate) on Saturday and are unlikely to suit up tonight.Ī handful of significant defensive players were also listed as questionable on the report, including nose tackle Vita Vea, outside linebacker Carl Nassib, and a trio of safeties: Keanu Neal, Logan Ryan, and Mike Edwards. The Buccaneers had a lengthy injury report come out on Saturday, listing nine players as questionable. Tampa Bay is banged up, Dallas is healthy Only six other teams covered at least 10 games during the regular season. They also covered in Week 2, which means they were a horrendous 2-12-1 ATS over the final 15 games of the season.ĭallas was among the league's best teams against the spread at 10-7. The Bucs' Week 1 victory over Dallas was one of just four games they covered all season as they finished an NFL-worst 4-12-1 against the spread. STATES: AZ, CO, IA, IL, IN, KS, LA, MI, MD, NJ, NY, PA, TN, VA Bucs have been awful against the spread Dallas committed twice as many (10 to 5) for nearly three-times as many yards (73 yards to 25).īrady wasn't exceptional that night - going an efficient 18 of 27 for 212 yards, one TD and one INT - while running back Leonard Fournette did the heavy lifting (127 yards on 21 carries). Penalties were a big part of the Week 1 meeting. The Cowboys pivot was just 14/29 (48.3 percent) for 134 yards, no touchdowns, and one interception. Dallas QB Dak Prescott was forced from the game with an injury, but that didn't come until the fourth quarter. The Tampa defense was smothering all night, holding the Cowboys to just 244 yards, 110 yards fewer than their season average. The meeting that's most-relevant for present purposes came in Week 1 this year when Tampa crushed Dallas 19-3 in this same venue. Most of that is ancient history as far as this game is concerned.

But Don't Drink Like an Amateur Think Twice Before Renting a Moto Scooter in Cozumel Common Catastrophes the Impact Cozumel Safety.So with that out of the way, what ARE some of the common hazards you might face in Cozumel? Rest assured, Cozumel is a very safe and friendly tourism destination for adults, families, and solo female travelers.Īnd local stakeholders – including a very visible local, state and federal police presence in Cozumel – intend to keep it that way. So, in other words, keep your wits about you, don’t wander around alone in areas you aren’t familiar with, don’t buy street drugs, etc. State Department’s travel advisory page for the state of Quintana Roo advises: Travelers should maintain a high level of situational awareness, avoid areas where illicit activities occur, and promptly depart from potentially dangerous situations. And Cozumel is especially safe for cruisers, divers, and tourists of all kinds.īy following some pretty obvious safety precautions, you can feel confident traveling to this region in Mexico, and especially to the quiet and remote island of Cozumel.Īs the U.S. Further, Mexico’s tourism sector is one of the best-performing industries in the country this year, so they have a lot to protect. There will be more than double the number of cruises and passengers looking forward to 20, and that’s not to mention the dive tourism crowds. In addition, anticipating Cozumel’s high tourist months in 2023, a renewed commitment to Cozumel’s security was announced, and quickly showed up in the form of several hundred additional security forces from the Mexican Navy and Marine units.Ĭozumel’s tourism numbers are not only returning to pre-pandemic numbers already, but are cruising right past them! In the section of those travel advisories about Cozumel, Cancun, and other local hotspots, there is simply a reminder to maintain awareness and caution, as you would anywhere. ![]() Nor against travel to Cancun and the overall Riviera Maya region of Mexico, for that matter. Ambassador to Mexico, you’ll be reminded that there are NO advisements against travel to Cozumel, itself. State Department guidelines on Mexico, however, along with the current statement from the U.S. In the high-traffic tourist areas, crime is nearly zero and there are helpful and friendly people everywhere, including local information booths and municipal police officers.Įveryone understands the value of Cozumel safety for the the local tourism industry, and the safety of visiting tourists is given the highest priority. In other words: Is Cozumel worth it?!Ĭozumel is a very safe place to vacation in 2023, with a low historic crime rate, especially relative to other US and Mexican destinations. Most of you are cautious and curious, and may even wonder if a trip to Mexico is dangerous or if Cozumel safety is too risky. A lot of risk analysis backs investment dollars, after all. The brand new luxury Dreams Resort and other active construction projects all over the island seem to indicate the same. These major corporations clearly believe that Cozumel is safe and a good investment for their fleet. On the other hand, recent news of several major airlines adding many new flights to Cozumel in the upcoming high season show that their market researchers see the increased tourism demand for Cozumel, and don’t seem too worried about (already low) Cozumel crime rates. State Department’s recent annual update for 2023 (see more, below) have raised new fears about safety when traveling to Mexico. ![]() These news stories (which reveal targeted incidents of Cozumel crime, FWIW), combined with the U.S. On the one hand, there have been a few more isolated incidents of serious crimes in early 2023. Especially when you’re spending your hard-earned money, and limited vacation time! We all need to be skeptical and prioritize personal safety, these days. I can tell you how safe I’ve always felt living in Cozumel as a single woman, and that I’ve had zero scary incidents, etc.īut I also get it. The most common question I’m asked here on the blog is if Cozumel is safe to visit in 2023. ![]() |
