A lightweight CMS implementation for some lovely folks

I’ve been spending a bunch of time on the Host site recently and just wrote up some thoughts about working with Netlify CMS and GitHub Pages on SB-PH’s tucked-away blog.

I just deployed some small fixes (force curly quotes via the smartify filter, prevent Cards from showing if no image), but the site doesn’t seem to be updating. It’s updated if I navigate to https://hostofleyton.com/index.html but not https://hostofleyton.com. Kind of weird. This StackOverflow thread seems useful, as does GitHub’s own troubleshooting page.

5 min warmup. Hard pose to hold!

10 min. Proportions are too exaggerated, but I like the continuous line.

20 minute. Interesting light source.

20 minute. Probably one of the most foreshortened figures I’ve ever tried to draw.

20 minute. Frustrated with the head/face, but like the overall effect of the line.
