I'm James, father of twins. I deliver furniture, and sometimes paint. But also a Livestreamer, a YouTuber and most importantly a 3d artist.

Hugh's work is a huge inspiration and he also did an amazing workshop pretty recently on the Material Layering workflow in UE5 for the Beyond Extent community, check it out: youtu.be/QaJ_5pQIGSo?...

Hello #PortfolioDay
I'm a hobbyist 3D artist, I started learning Blender in the fall of 2022, but I only started posting my art in 2024. I'm still unsure about what I want to specialize in and I'm experimenting with a variety of styles

Happy #PortfolioDay! 😄

I've been updating some old materials with stuff I've been learning since last year.

Super happy to feel a lot more comfortable in Designer 🤓

Was just sporking around today. Low poly, high poly and unwrapped 2 out of three. I don't think I've done a utensil since @oddenough.art modelling challenges.

A non art post. I've really been trying hard to be a good dad to my twins. And some days I feel like a bad dad. Losing my patience, not reacting the way I should.

This whole dad thing is tricky.

The new posters are in place. Not sure how I feel about them. Might have to rework.

Star wars poster#5. This one is pretty silly. But with these 5 posters done I can finish up the 3d project!

Most of my artwork I am unhappy with until the last 90% when it all comes together. Tonight's little drawing never got there.

Whether it was a bad idea or just purely not executed properly. I always try to push through to find the good in it. I just couldn't find it tonight.

Poster 2 is mostly finished. Definitely rough and some areas that need alot more work. But I have to move on. #art
December 16, 2025 at 5:30 AM
Working on some star wars posters for the project. Here is the first of five. Just quick paintings, real rough but I'm happy with the result.
December 14, 2025 at 7:31 PM
Getting to the point in this project where I'm just about my skill limit. And need help/feedback to push it further. But before I do that I've got some minor model/texture changes I want to make still, and actually paint some posters (those are just placeholder ones I painted in the past)
December 10, 2025 at 6:26 AM
Did a quick turntable, still need to address a few things but I'm really liking it. Rendered it in @marmoset3d.bsky.social toolbag 3. I'm a bit behind the times :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBtf...

Starting to look cool!

Working away on the textures. It's progressing!

Another productive night, this project is officially unwrapped, baked and fixed all the errors in the bake.

Through together a visual reference guide for the textures so I can easily reference it.

Although the onslaught of ai, finding good reference images has become challenging.

I'm closing in on finishing up my project. The goal is to have it done before the end of the year. Can't wait to show it off.
