Anytime you do personnal work, I’m always impatient to see if it’s going to be this really nice and cute character, or something so goofy and nightmarish.

And you are not even sharing that book name?! What is it?

I don't understand, you don't want non-human abominations to produce what humans will be looking at? That's a bit of a weird stance, please rethink it.

if you own a Cintiq 27QHD DO NOT UPDATE THE DRIVERS, the new drivers (that I got from a nice notification from Wacom to update mine) are not compatible and Wacom will just put a dumbass "Think about buying a newer tablet that is supported by this driver" afterward.

Your portfolio will speak for itself, it will show me your motivation, taste, experience and prob a part of yourself Way more than any stupid resume or cover letters.

only engaging myself here,
there’s so many artists applying and I’ve been reviewing applications here’s a list of priorities that I’m looking at:

resume and cover letters, I prob won’t even take more than 5 secs on if the folio is not fitting what I need.

Ah yes! Bakery!
We had this really cool little project for fun with a few friends a while back, and even though we didn't really spend much time on it nor go very far with it, I enjoyed working on this little character so much; bold shapes, warm & colorful palette, overall theme, pretty much my kind of stuff!

a Bit of a short notice but I'll be closing my Gumroad account in a few moments, all of the tutorials won't be accessible anymore, but hopefully, new ones will appear on my personnal site soon. Those were outdated/bad, and I want to centralise where to find everything related to my work on my site.

I’d make the art for that, if you want it painterly 🤷

Also, yes, the liquid color, glass color, specular color, height of the liquid, angle of it can be changed, I'm using Custom Primitive Datas here in order to have everything on a single material instance.
