Bleh, went to go do a photoshoot last night to show off the clothes I was working on but the very first fucking world I picked turned out to be completely AI-generated. Never been turned off from doing a photoshoot so quickly. #vrchat

Decided that yesterday was gonna be Blender day and worked on a Halloween fit for my donkey. I was originally going to reuse the pants and shirt from his original fit, but everything felt so off that I ended up refitting the entire thing before moving forward. #furryvr #vrchat

The original set for my donk before I refit it, this was originally the Kuda version of the Graphex Set. My intentions were to give it a much more loose fit, like the hoodie was oversized, but looking at it now the result made the hips look far lower than they actually were - not to mention all the weight painting issues having part of the hoodie on the thighs gave... yeouch.I lifted both the shirt and the hoodie to be well out of the way of the thighs and hips to reduce the amount of weight painting issues I was having, cleaned up the shoulder region and refit the pants to be a lot closer to the body. I redid the weights in their entirety and now the whole thing not only looks better, but moves a lot better too. I'm pretty proud with how this turned out and I feel like I'm getting better with this stuff every time I use it.

Bit of a shift from my normal content, I recently started working with substance painter and have been working on a few things to get my bearings with it. I'm no artist by any means, but I think these turned out pretty good. More info in alt text, couldn't fit it all in here. #vrchat

Bento Croc Gummigoo texture I did as my Halloween getup for my alligator this year. I figured he'd be a pretty easy texture to do considering his design was relatively simple, and it turned out to be a lot easier than I thought it initially would be - the gradient transition between the yellow and green was a surprisingly easy thing to set up, and honestly the most difficult thing for me was having to manually paint the belly/tail with my shaky hands lmao. Overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, it was a fun way to help get the basics down.Unfinished custom texture I'm working on for Elgantine/Drakious' Forge Leviathan. Colors were inspired by Koi fish, I wanted to go a bit further with the Koi theming but I think I currently lack the artistic skill to bring that idea to proper fruition. I used this texture to explore blending techniques, I used a blur filter to try to make the transitions a bit more natural looking, but I think I still have a long way to go before I achieve that. I also want to break up the white area in the torso somehow, I'm just not exactly sure what to do just yet.

I will not be creating for a platform that both uses and promotes AI generated content. #VRChat please join me in placing this poster in your worlds. share it and edit it freely, spread it as far as you can. nothing is going to change if we don't put our foot down now. vrc.group/NOAI.3843

In 2019 I drew a bunch of GAYTORS representing as many pride flags as I could thanks to folks suggesting some to me :3 so here's a thread of all of them..

A thread of drawings of cute cartoony gators drawn with pride flag colorations, over 20 of them were drawn back in 2019. The thread has labels for each gator shared

Furality was awesome this year!... When I could attend it. Seems like life is pretty hellbent on consistently screwing me over come late May/early June, and this year was no exception. Made attending Furality this year difficult and as a result I once again have no photos to show this time around.

Small vent I am _INCREDIBLY_ tired of seeing AI-generated thumbnails for VRChat worlds, especially when they don't seem to have any correlation to the world at all. Like what is the point? What are you trying to achieve?
