Yes… a very very very tiny Bob Ross painting is in our future. I’m telling ya, this is our idea of a good time! 👏👏👏 But it does present some technical challenges. Like, how do we paint something meant for a 18x24 inch canvas onto a .5x.5 inch canvas, AND how do we film it in a way that y’all can see our progress?? Luckily, Evan found a solution:

I colored coded things so I can explain. The pinkish purple circled thing at the bottom is a 3D printed holder for our keycap and a tiny acrylic paint palette for our oil paints. In red is a microscopic camera (much more detail than even a macro camera!) that can record a top-down for you guys. The green is a light we added because the more microscopic you go with the camera, the more light you need for the shot. The yellow is a monitor so that we could look at the keycap on a larger screen and not have to be hunching down the whole time.

I think it should all work pretty well . Also here is a close up of the paint palette omg IT’S SO CUTE.
