I have to use Maya again for a class, and I am being reminded of how awful a program it is
I swear the program hates me and will crash because i looked at it wrong
I know its not industry standard but i wish i could use Blender instead

Attempted a 24 animation challenge with some friends, did not succeed but it was fun and I'm happy with what we did accomplish.
We now plan to have it ready for local film festival instead

The final 18x24” oil on canvas

Its so saturated that my phone was having a hard time with the colors

Taking a break from animating after college with traditional mediums.
Its been several years since i touched oils last so i made a small study based off my watercolor as a warm up before i tackle the final large version

Finally getting involved with a D&D group again, i just had to design my character: a warlock who’s patron is indeed trapped in a jar of dirt and may or may not just be taking over his mind

Checked out the new Goosebumps show, only on episode 2 but its giving off “written by committee” vibes so far.

Idk if the writers just needed more time or to write a second draft but theres too much petty teen drama, everyone besides the dad and son feel undeveloped and reliant on cliches

Im gonna have tonal whiplash on my page when i start posting my main projects
Gonna go from silly blobcats to scifi horror and dark fantasy comics back to silly blobcats

More progress on this
Krita is my usual choice for 2d animation but Blender has been working surprisingly well for me.

Work in progress of what happens when you’re an animator and take “cats are liquid” literally

I love getting motivation to work on my comic right before college starts up, like thanks brain, now im gonna be too busy

Trump’s followers are gonna martyrize him for this
He’s gonna milk the situation til dementia rots his brain

Regardless of the what is found out about the shooter, I’m far more concerned what the fallout from his base is gonna be, cause I’m guessing violent even if it ends up being one of their own

Dear Maya users
Please tell me in extraneous detail why this piece if shit is industry standard??
It crashes constantly, has more bugs than a Bethesda game in beta, the Arnold renderer is cpu reliant (and from the sounds of my fans, is barely using the cpu), and feels like its trying to sabotage me
