At the suggestion of a friend, I decided to set up a Ko-Fi page, to at least get started on potentially making some money with my work.

No pressure so far, as its all in its early stages, but any support is appreciated!

One challenge that'll be interesting to solve for CCFS is seeing if we can get away with faux-volumetrics, while still adhering to the 90s aesthetic

Though this example is missing the surrounding fog

The big stompey lad is finished. Well "finished" in the sense that he's textured and in the game. Still, I'm happy with how the result turned out

Playing classic #Marathon since it's free on Steam

Pretty enlightening experience seeing some of Bungie's earliest work.
Helps that I haven't gotten to Colonyship for Sale Cheap...

I was recently reminded of a quote from Mordin from ME2: "Cultural, artistic expression reflects philosophical evolution... suspect you won't find any art in Collector base. Culturally DEAD. Tools for Reapers."

A society without art and culture, is one without a soul.

Jacket so good, they made part two and three

Jokes aside though the new customization options were successfully implemented and we even get variations by tinting the textures, alongside wardrobe features

It seems that Hikers in #CrimsonCounty will be followers of the everlasting DRIP

Jokes aside, someone in my team reminded me that I should finish this outfit

Theirs is a virtual God. And His children, are the Dreamers that seek down bellow.

You might pity them... but how do YOU know you're also not still dreaming?

Two barrels. Loads of Buckshot. All pain... for your enemies

A render of our double-barreled shotgun, done by a very cool guy from our Devteam. Appreciate his work in all its glory

You'd think I'd be done by now, but turns out manually painting the ribcage, spine and shoulder blades takes time

I do keep getting distracted by my music...

Incidentally, Park, Crimson and Sunless Ranger are also good names for difficulty levels

Though for now, these are mainly for promo purposes

Though it wasn't intentional, it is rather fitting to start modelling the base human's skeleton in the spookiest month of the year.

Plus, it opens the door to have player's/NPC's skeletons comically light up when they get electrocuted

#Gamedev would actually be serious business, if all of our characters didn't turn out to be Mimics

Our Programmer - who also happens to have a mocap setup - had the idea of combining my hand-animated stuff with mocap parts for specific sections where a mocap performance lends itself to a better animation.
Here's the result:

Because I apparently don't have enough feathers in my cap, I also started doing some animations for #CrimsonCounty, though for now they're mostly on the simple side, since I'm quite literally just a beginner

Also Animgraphs are literal lifesavers

Besides Gamedev stuff, I do occasionally try to keep my other #3DModelling projects going. It's a bit of a case of spinning plates, but doing constant lowpoly stuff also makes me fiend to make higher fidelity characters
