I’d like to finish and post more personal stuff. Most of what I do at home is really to learn some new technique or process. I tend to not finish it once I get the “aha” moment.

In the meantime, here’s some lookdev/shading stuff I’ve done for work in the last few years that’s no longer NDA. 🧵

Parent of teenagers here: this advice is 100% true. The best way to get your kids to stop saying something is to say it too.
if you're an older person who finds words like mogg and maxxing annoying, just starting using them. people over the age of 30 have the superpower to end trends by simply adopting them

I hope this kid sees all of this and I hope we never learn who he is unless he tells us.

Car dealerships should offer pods you can rent by the hour to take naps in while you wait for your car to be serviced, just throwing it out there. Most adults are sleep deprived, it's an untapped market! lol

I love seeing the growing power of teachers unions getting these big wins. If there’s any industry where the “there just isn’t money for that” myth is accepted as fact it’s education. To see collective action easily blowing that lie up is inspiring. Imagine what it can in a for profit industry…

Whenever I drive my 14 yo son someplace, he wordlessly takes his earphones out to listen to what I’m listening to. After a few seconds, he usually puts his earphones back in, also without a word.

It’s the most savage burn of my musical tastes imaginable.

That is literally all of my personal time work
If you walk away from a unfinished project but left with a little more experience and learnt something to take with your next project it did its job perfectly, and if that was fun then that truly is the goal.
unfinished projects are fiiiiiine

society has brainwashed us into chasing utmost productivity every hour of our waking existence

just be curious and have fun, man

Age verification? I bought a Walkman and folding Vuarnet sunglasses at Service Merchandise.
Age verification? I got to see Superman the Movie in the theater for free because a poem I wrote about the planet Krypton won a contest they held at Kaufmann's department store in downtown Pittsburgh.
Age verification? The definitive pop star, the performance and musical standard against which I subconsciously judge all others, is a guy with a stripe painted on his nose dressed as an 18th century bandit yelling “fa-diddly-qua-qua”
