Robbie Reid the Rigger

It's nearly here folks, Mixtape drops on May 7th!

It's nearly here folks, Mixtape drops on May 7th!

The stupidest and also the funniest thing I've ever rigged for a project is releasing this week. I hope I can actually talk about it when it does...

The universe has rewarded me for working hard at the start of this year

Managed to get all of my work done and wrap on one of my long-term projects, all before flying out to Brisbane tomorrow. After getting barely any time off in December, I have never felt more ready for a holiday

I'm on my way to CG Spectrum Melbourne to give my "How To Freelance" talk again, this time with more graphs and streamlined math. I always love chatting to the Game Changer Academy students, I think it's such a good idea for a course

Thank you sir

I rigged and skinned the base and ya zi variations, along with the small eye-patch addition on the pirate version. The corrupted variation utilizes a texture swap of the initial model. We put a lot of detail into his face rig to sell the intensity (And cheekiness) of this version of the character

Watch out for the gnoll chieftain's axe, Hogger is now available in Hearthstone! He's the fifth pet in the game, continuing my rigging work for Superseed Studios in collaboration with the team at Blizzard

Here's to adventuring with our favorite companions.

Happy Valentine's Day! 💘

Hey gang! Are there any Melbourne/Victoria-based 3D modellers looking for short contract work right now? Summerfall is currently on the lookout for contractors to do hard-surface environment work for a new prototype, like furniture and all that. 🔨🪑

Send through portfolios! 🙂 Cheers!

FRIENDS! I’m hoping to make 2026 the year I find a long term or permanent team! If you’re after

After juggling five projects simultaneously since November, I'm finally back down to just one (Hopefully). Now I have to figure out what I used to do in my spare time again...

You are well prepared to weather the storm

When I was reorganizing my hard drives at the end of last year, I made a note that I should probably convert all my old SWF files to videos at some point. Just to avoid them becoming unusable in the future. Clearly it was a good note to make...

One of the most important programs in animation history just, poof, gone. Time for everybody to go back to Flash 8 and get the best version of the brush tool

I was super lucky that I purchased a physical copy of the CS6 suite back in...2012? I was making Flash video tutorials for a university, so it made sense. Thanks to that off chance I've never had to subscribe to CC bullshit, and now those fuckers can never take my Flash away from me

So Flash, the program that started thousands of animation careers (Including my own), single-handedly fueled the early internet animation scene, and is still used by several studios in full scale productions...is being killed by Adobe for basically no reason?

Hey yo ! ✨
I'm looking for some animators to test out my horse rig !
(if you're also up to make me a canter/trot/anything cycle for my demo, I'd be very grateful. Of course, in exchange you'll be able to use it in your demo as well !)
(shout out to Hutdieb for the model !)

I rigged and skinned the base and corrupted variation, with the other two utilizing texture swaps of the initial model. She'll always be a little special to me, being the first pet I worked on

Ysera, the cutest protector of the Emerald Dream, is now available in Hearthstone! She's the fourth pet in the game, continuing my rigging work for Superseed Studios in collaboration with the team at Blizzard.

Let's go Van Helthing 2!

Never thought I'd see the day when YouTube became the superior show reel platform (Barely)

Be thankful you never did, cherish it

I was going through files from 2005 the other month, and was reminded not only of "w00t" but also "glomp". That may be the last time I uttered either...

Good question. I'd imagine it's probably easier to get people to click if it's a link in your description. But I think you'd need some kind of notification that the link is there in your video

I'd say treat it like any other folio or reel, showcase your best stuff. The scripts you think would be the most useful, or impressive. You can always link to your Gumroad so people can explore the rest after watching

I'd say a fast and obvious example of the script working in practice, with a small bit of text outlining what it's doing. Avoid showing/scrolling through the code, you could always show that off via a GitHub link or something similar

The true tycoons were the friends you played with along the way

Have you ever tried multiplayer with OpenRCT2? It's chill to play with friends
