Just amazed with what you can do within the tri budgets. Hope we get to see this one in the near future 😍

I don't know why it took me so long to start using ngSkinTools. Amazing tool πŸ’―

Started my journey rigging in vfx this week. I've worked in TV, games (indie and AAA) but not yet in films. This has been a goal since I was kid. Super stoked about this opportunity.

Hopefully I can overcome imposter syndrome, make cool things and deliver πŸ€—

I was having a discussion with @stephors.bsky.social about soft IK recently, and remembered this great Softimage blog post. It's nearly 20 years old at this point, but the equation is solid. I use the same setup in my rigs, only converted to Maya utility nodes #rigtip

3D Character Texturing Techniques in Toolbag 5
YouTube video by Marmoset 3D Character Texturing Techniques in Toolbag 5

The first tutorial video I helped make for Marmoset Toolbag 5 is out!

Hopefully it covers some of the cool new texturing stuff in Toolbag 5 for you. Let me know if there is anything we missed or that could be improved upon!

Earlier this week our studio along with 2 others we co deved shut down. It was so sudden. Worked with these people for years and suddenly the connection is severed on the day we got the news.

The messaging last month saying there was no plans of this made this very unexpected.

Still processing what happened with Ubisoft. It's rough out there.

Sorry to hear that Paige. I don't know much about the brand but I do know that you and your partner are behind it and have put in so much work for it. I think of you both everytime Beastcoast is mentioned.

Sending positive vibes your way. ❀️
