Skimming Toni Baker's «Mastering Machine Code on your ZX81» and i love the chapter titles, which feature a hand-drawn illustration of the ZX81 circuit board. I believe the PCB tracks on the ZX81 were themselves hand-drawn, which was the fashion at the time. [edit: i see from the title page, that the illustrator is Cathy Lowe, and they like a bit of slightly wobbly Letraset Helvetica]

"....SCUM-SKIMMING wasn’t hard to learn. You got up at dawn. You gulped a breakfast sliced not long ago from Chicken Little and washed it down with Coffiest. You put on your coveralls and took the cargo net up to your tier. In blazing noon from sunrise to sunset you walked your acres of shallow tanks crusted with algae. If you walked slowly, every thirty seconds or so you spotted a patch at maturity, bursting with yummy carbohy-drates. You skimmed the patch with your skimmer and slung it down the well, where it would be baled, or rocessed into glucose to feed Chicken Little, who would be sliced and packed to feed people from Baffinland to Little America. ..."

Michiko skimming across the water once more

Back in her high school days, Michiko use to be a cheerleader with the gift of being able to skim across the water like a dolphin. A feat most Melody-merfolks struggle with. Years of training and perfection lead her to making it look effortless... that was, until her high school boyfriend and a nasty breakup ruined her motivation. Fast forward to now, Michiko is now living on her own and on one night she decided to just try once more. Out of practice, she tries again, tho fails several times. Finally, Michiko was able to skim across the water. Even tho it wasn't as long as it use to be, it was still a step in the right direction in her mind.
For the longest time, this has been an idea I've been wanting to do for years as I always had this idea in my head lore-wise for Michiko. To finally get around and work on this feels like a breathe of fresh air, and I'm so happy with the end result! I'm super happy with how Michiko's hair and expression came out! I ended up adding some sweat after getting refs from Demon Slayer and thought it would be a good fit. I'm very happy with the sky render but what I was the most unsure about was the water. I was worried about making sure the waves looked like she was skimming through it with light movement. After some advice, I added some changes and came out much better. To say I'm happy with it is an understatement.
