RUST 12 - ART OF RUST

The Art of Rust community have out done themselves once a again. They have a custom server where people from the community can decorate their own plots.

They put together a tour for us and dedicated some of it to Rust's 12th Birthday. They had concerts, fireworks, and much more.

This is mostly going to be a photo dump and in no way could I ever capture how beautiful and heartwarming these scenes were using still photos, but being there was absolutely magical.

I did manage to clip some of the opening concert (thanks Oriwell!) before the tour started though. Its not very edited sorry not sorry.

Here's a hefty photo dump. If you're reading this on Steam go to the web blog for more!

So much time and effort went into this tour and it shows. Thank you Art of Rust! Love you guys!

FATHER SON DUO

Beastmode recently started a second channel to dedicate to some quality Rust content!

His very first upload happened to be with his dad, who coincidentally is also pretty well-versed in Rust too.

They make a great duo and this video really plays into that. Check it out!
