i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

More musings from the Deity series I’ve been noodling on. A WIP from a collection of cultist designs, a group of servants that worship the serpent themed Deity. I’m currently exploring their motifs, outfits, equipment and eventually their locations of worship.

Just shared a new blog post on ArtStation — a few thoughts behind my stylized watering can and its subtle storytelling.

Welp, I've just found out that my role has been made redundant 🫠... So I will be looking for work!

If anyone is looking for a 2D/3D Generalist or Art Director for games (particularly specialising in stylised projects!) please shout! From concepts > modelling > animating thru to implementation 💛✨

Relight I want to finish. Tried making some VDB clouds in blender but the shading was not really great. Maybe a flat plane would do a better job

Reference vs Final 🌺
It is always fun to stylise a prop especially If the reference is so good 😇

Trying the remesh workflow inside blender. LP given by Valve on their website. I really like it, has its quirks but it works great. Blender performance is incredible, I'm sitting at 110 mil triangles and still working fast. Also good to refresh subd as you still need suporting geo for it to work.

Some more foggy tests, this time with some megascans ✨☁

Obviously I'm yeeting away any physically based accuracy in favor of art-directability

Not working towards any specific goal, I just like the idea of painting mood and light with volumes like this 😅

Summer lizard.

Now that the weather is getting warmer there's a whirlwind of lizard activity outside. We piled up some branches in the back and inadvertently made a 5-star resort for the little fellas - it's so fun to watch them! 💛
