Almost time for adventure! Finished up the rigs for Vance and Lin, two characters from my indie series, Minitaur! Made in Blender. . . . #blender #blendercommunity #blender3d #b3d #minitaur #indieanimation #indiecartoon #animation #characterdesign #fantasy #greasepencil

Simple hair rig! I don't want it to add secondary action dynamically but I still like having a little automatic gravity that I can adjust as I see fit.

Hey #indieanimationday. I’m making a goofy three minute short in Blender, and I hope to make more things like it. Subscribe to my Patreon for updates and check out a few sneak peaks below. www.patreon.com/coreybarnes?...

Little lighting test! Definitely was not ramping up the conflict enough up in here.

New Blender model! The Duke needs just a few little finishing touches but for the most part she's rigged and ready to go. #b3d #minitaur

When the rigging is going extremely well

Easing back into some Blender, so here’s a quick character block out! Still lots to do

Gonna stream some art for a bit, come hang out if you feeeeel like it. www.twitch.tv/willbits

Finished a script! Which means I'm out of excuses and have to start doing art for it now. Considering streaming some work for it this week, dunno if anybody still watches that sort of thing.

Why are the new crop of AI comics so *brown*? I appreciate that it's doing it so consistently as it makes it much easier to spot at a glance, but it's like they're intentionally adding an artificial filter to make everything look like an old scan.

Alright, nap time's over! I have officially rolled off of my retakes gig over at Shadowmachine which is very bittersweet. If anyone has leads on animation / retakes work, I would appreciate it! In the meantime, it's time to get back to workin' on my own stuff! Wake up, Fred, you've got a job to do!!

This smoke is preventing me from getting all the smog I usually need to function.

Woof really glad work sent me home early. I breezed through the Hollywood Hills are right before this whole mess started up.

Was pulling out of my garage to head to work this morning when I saw something suspicious on our property. It seems we’ve been tagged by a vicious local gang; some of which may be killers.

Oh right I forgot to mention the interview went pretty well. Gonna be helping these guys out on a fun project for a little bit!

Got an interview with a union gig this afternoon. Wish me luck, folks!

Were I the richest man in the world and somehow concerned with corporate ownership and messaging in art and media, I would simply give out grants to independent artists.
