Something from tomorrow's talk.

I build a *lot* of stuff using simple smoothed cubes as a starting point.

This art style is delightful
It feels so soft, yet firm if that makes sense 🍮

Oh this reminds me to ask whether you had those posts about previz you’ve done before. I’m doing some spare time stuff and want rough approximations of chars/environs and thought it would be a good thing to look back on 👀

For some reason I thought this was a jab at the character being bald.

I am sorry

good luck!!!

will it be online anywhere after the fact if it's a live talk?

kanaratron.bsky.social•12 days ago

Thanks! It's a private university talk so I don't think it'll be online anywhere but it should be fun.

This style is *so* good

kanaratron.bsky.social•12 days ago

...This kind of stuff!

your process, as I understand it:

> start with a cube
> make it smooth
> (unspecified steps)
> behold, a dude

kanaratron.bsky.social•12 days ago

Ha, yup.

The unspecified steps are to build a dude, composed out of variations on a smoothed cube.

This is amazing! Will it be available to watch online?

kanaratron.bsky.social•12 days ago

Nah, this is a private one for a university I'm afraid.

rafaeltota.bsky.social•12 days ago

That's unfortunate, sounds like a fascinating technique!

...To sum up what I like about this approach:-

🔸 It gives a nice consistency of style across assets
🔸 They're light in terms of poly weight
🔸 It gives a certain low poly crunch
