I think a trap many artists (+ teams) make is to overestimate the importance of the quality of singular assets, and undervalue how they are assembled, how they are blended together. You get a lot more out of a consistent, harmonious environment with a good mix ratio than with only good models.

Hey folks, I’m incredibly sorry to ask again; but some unexpected bills have popped up. A couple freelance gigs will help next month, but in the meantime I’m struggling a bit. I truly appreciate any bit no matter how small Venmo venmo.com/u/BBoolean PayPal email [email protected]

I'm organising a technical art meetup at Develop: Brighton! ✨ I found it hard to find others last year so wanted to try running a little group this time. Even if you can't join, do share so others can see it. More info here: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

its amazing how chatgpt knows everything about subjects I know nothing about, but is wrong like 40% of the time in things im an expert on. not going to think about this any further

Actually the best life advice I ever got: Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. A half-cleaned room is better than an uncleaned room. Occasionally flossing is better than never flossing. A 10-minute workout is better than no workout. When it’s all you can do to get out of bed, get out of bed.

I was watching Andor 2x04 and I had to turn on the subtitles to see if the fake french was actually fake french or just an accent I couldn't quite understand so uhhhh props to whoever made it and the performers? (I used to have a B1 like 10 years ago but I've forgotten most of it by now)

My favorite activity after any workday! #frogart #comic

applying for jobs again

Imagine that everyone is forced to switch to flying cars instead of regular grounded cars: "It saves money! No need for roads!"... but during this transition, flying cars require crane operators to give you the illusion of actually flying and a guy next to you making futuristic sound with his mouth

More layoffs.

Another timely reminder that what we've been seeing over the past 5 years is a systematic and intentional dismantling of the videogame industry by the executive money-hoarder class.

Andor is by far my favourite logic gate

biggest pet peeve with bilingual characters writing is having them randomly spew out words in the other language just because. I'm watching someone play through Expedition 33 and the amount of "putain, we have to go right now!" and "merde" without reason is putting me off 😩

call it toxic positivity or w/e but knowing what goes into making a fictional universe and being so close to so many amazing artists and creatives has killed my ability to even MILDLY dislike any creative endeavor. everything is good even when it's bad, unless it's made by verifiably horrible people

I just think if these AI tools were any good the apps I use every day wouldn't practically trick me into using them

Re-watching Season 1 of "Andor" before Season 2 drops next week and boy does it have extra resonance now

I only you would've told me 5 years ago... Anyway, support Open Source projects if you can, it's increasingly the only way forward 👍

Last night I was asked to reshare a talk I did back in 2017, which didn't get filmed the many times I gave it. Let's do it as a thread. I've not done an informational thread on here before, interested to see how folks like it. (forgive obvious stuff, it was ever so slightly fresher 8 years ago)

I’ve played the game so many times so I know what happens but I really wish folks wouldn’t post spoilers and screenshots for a show not even a day after it aired. 🙄Yeesh.

New season of Black Mirror is out, so it's time to share the tweet:

Remember folks, good art direction is when scifi and bold solid colours, bad art direction is when contemporary realism.

Yo! I'm a 3D Character artist looking for work in games. 💼 www.artstation.com/toenee ✉️ [email protected] #PortfolioDay #3DCharacterArt #Stylized

So... I notice that the cats from Assassin's Creed Shadows have cat eyes responding to the lighting, distance and angle of the camera. Superb job! 🐈‍⬛🐈👁️👁️

With age, I am understanding things I never understood when I was younger. ONE of those things, is the value of doing Fucking Anything™. Taking ANY action, inspires other people to take action. This ripple effect is more powerful than the original Anything™ you do.

I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone and draw more backgrounds. And what better way to do that than by combining it with a little animation exercise?

Happy Trans Day of Visibility
