I put a lot of effort into deconstructing the roadblocks that prevent individuals from learning advanced topics or skills.

Sometimes, learning or grasping a new topic involves bringing down barriers that you or someone else put in place.

I need some more character art friends to get some feedback on my models, I’m so new here and I dunno if I’ve got sculpting blindness or what

You know how you can tell BlueSky has that early Twitter Vibe? So many people saying good morning and good night to their followers. So cool.

I must ask what kind of shell is that over your portal, I definitely need one for my new portal coming

Naaaa no support nerf, finally it’s my time to shine as a support legend, ranked has been the easiest and funnest it’s ever been because of it

Apex is incredibly addictive—there's something about the gameplay that's had a grip on me for the past four years. Oh, and nerf support, please.

My wife and I were walking back to our car in the parking garage when I spotted a cybertruck and burst out laughing. First time seeing one in the wild and they really do look ridiculous.

That’s good to know, lemme get to work! Thanksss 🙏

Absolutely love this!

HAHHA this is hilariousss

Post a picture of yourself to show the newbies what they’re dealing with

So I know splitting your focus in your portofolio hurts your chances at landing a job, when it comes to character art specifically should a portfolio have pieces of a particular style like all realism or all stylised or can you have a mixture of both? Does that impact the look of your portfolio?

I’m not doing a great explanation but when I jump on my pc I’ll try show some examples of what you can do

Welll yeah you would break it down into chunks rather thsn it being one big lump mesh, again like foliage maybe do individual spikes of hair mesh and combine them after

You can then crossstack the cards over each other and fix the angle of the normals to whatever side you want so they’re always facing outwards and give a little more dimension for minimal budget

To the texture of the plane and the alpha Chanel is just to mask out and make anything outside the drawn hair transparent so you have that whole 2d look for your characters

Yeah the topology of a sphere for a character is awfull sauce but with a cube to sphere you’ll defo have more control. And with hair cards no I wasn’t talking realistic but more similar to a foliage pipeline where you would paint out your hair in photoshop or whatever then apply that drawing -

You can make a cube into a sphere and then manipulate to get the general shape of the face/head, also very easy to uv map your face on it with your artstyle. For hair I’d say shape out some planes as hair cards with an alpha channel in the texture and draw out the hair on those planes in chunks

Welp after months of fighting I guess I’m here now then

This bust I did for my CGMA course with Weston Reid is still a fav of mine 🥹
