This month was kind of slow. I got different mini-projects out (which is always fun) and did a bunch of CSS drawings and cartoons. Maybe next month I'll play a little bit more with 3D CSS again... we'll see.
Here are some of the things I did during April 2021:
Tech Things
CSS The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
An illustration of The Wizard of Oz's main characters done just using clip-path in CSS.
Bezos Calculator

CSS Farmer
A cartoon of a farmer done with CSS.
Humans are allergic to change
One of the few small animations I did this month (the others are more tongue-in-cheek). And a video of the coding process
CSS Pirate
One more CSS illustration, this time a cartoon of a pirate. There's a more interesting animated version thanks to Temani Afif.
Non-Tech Things
I asked for suggestions of graphic novels on Twitter and ended up with three recommendations that I read and enjoyed (the first three from the list):
| Title | Author | Style |
|---|---|---|
| Nimona | Noelle Stevenson | Fantasy |
| Slaughterhouse-Five: The Graphic Novel | Kurt Vonnegut, Ryan North & Albert Monteys | Graphic Novel |
| DUNE: The Graphic Novel, Book 1 | James Tynion IV & Werther Dell'Edera | Graphic Novel |
| The Hero Code | Admiral William H. McRaven | Biography |
| The Bell Jar | Sylvia Plath | Novel |
| Kick-Ass | Mark Millar & John Romita Jr. | Graphic Novel |
Apart from the graphic novels, I read The Hero Code (a book in the style of Make Your Bed by the same author, but not quite there) and The Bell Jar (I think because I saw it once on The Simpsons and was curious about reading it).
