Last night I watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit with my daughter. (We have a list of movies I want to share with her). When Doom revealed his plan to pave over toontown and build a free way she said โ€œoh heโ€™s that sort of villain.โ€ I looked at her questioningly. โ€œA capitalistโ€ฆโ€ I cracked up so hard.

I miss being able to go into a store and buy something. Without a game of 20 questions.

โ€œDo you have our app? Do you know youโ€™d save money? Do you know youโ€™d earn points? Do you know itโ€™s free? Why donโ€™t you use the app?โ€

Dishonored 2 Official Live Action Trailer
YouTube video by IGN Dishonored 2 Official Live Action Trailer

I think yesterday was the 13th anniversary of #Dishonored being launched. It snuck up on me.
This is from Dishonored 2, but I am forever thankful for getting to visit 3 cities in the Czech Republic as we shot this live action commercial.

It's the foundational stuff for doing characters but I like the presentation, and it's never bad to go over the fundamentals. If you're working on your own character drawing, give this is a watch too!

In this new video, we do a beginner-friendly deep dive into the "double subdivision" method which is a very easy, fast and fun way of making 3D models. This is a longer version of a video I made about a year ago. Watch it here: youtu.be/YCd_tS_3BTU #blender #b3d #blender3d

A while back I made discography cds with covers to hang in my office. I created and printed covers for the titles that never shipped using artwork from the games concepts. It was really gratifying to have those cds and covers framed behind me even for those titles which never shipped.
