Portland to Bar Harbor, which route is best these days?

Hello,

I'll be driving from Portland up to Bar Harbor next Friday and was wondering which route should I take? Originally from Orrington but haven't been back in years, wondering if there's any heavy construction I should be aware of? I'll be landing in the afternoon, around 3 or so. Would like to get up to Bar Harbor sooner rather than later but want to make a stop to eat and get some ice cream.

95 I believe is the fastest but maybe more on the boring side. I was as thinking 95 to 3 to 1 into Ellsworth, or I could just take 1 up but not sure how much more time that would take. Thoughts?

How are you storing Commander precons?

I have a question for all of you, how are you storing all your precons? I used to pick up the matching Ultrapro deck box for each deck but those have been recently discontinued…

My personal Commander decks are double sleeved in the Bastion 100+, then typically stored in a Gamegenic Dungeon. For precons, I’m thinking maybe more of a budget option, single sleeved. Just trying to settle of something decent that doesn’t break the bank, thoughts?

Help with toplogy on rounded windows

Hello,

Working on this curved door for a production ready model, will be smoothed on rendering. Trying to detmine if there's a better way to go about the topology here. Getting a little pinching around the window when smoothed. What's a good approach for redirecting when tackling a rounded window such as this? Appreciate the help.

Hello,

After exploring a ton of options I think we're gonna keep it simple and do gray...not the most exciting but I think it works (see previous post here).

Question is what shade of gray. So far I'm leaning towards a light gray, sw repose or more of a nuetral/cool gray such as light french gray. I've considered darker varients but afraid of things just being too muddy. Trim I'm thinking either a black fox or iron ore. Planning on installing a new front door at some point, something with some color. Can I do better? Appreciate the help.

Hello, looking for suggestions on what color you would paint my home. I’ll be using Sherwin Williams for paint. The color of the brick adds some challenges, but I don’t want to paint it. Thinking of keeping a similar color pallet but maybe darkening the gutter’s and trim, not really sure though…Thoughts?
