Still sending out applications, still dealing with paperwork, but I had some time to figure out charging weapons and material changes a bit. Not shown: Delving into an alternative player model with modular parts, though I'm still looking at how to best do that. #mecha #godot

14 years ago I wanted to work with Blizzard so badly, I got myself hired as a figure model for the drawing classes and drove 3 hours+ to/from Irvine every week. Now after hosting at Blizzcon, voicing characters, and making lifelong friends on the teams, I support making Blizz BETTER for them. 💜

A side-by-side look at the real flowers and fauna you can find onboard The Pergola: real life weeds and flowers found everywhere on the ship. We want the overgrowth to feel familiar, even when it's hundreds of years away from home.

Real talk, being made to move from Tennessee to Seattle without relocation assistance just to get laid off in the middle of the global pandemic a thousand miles away from family was a large factor in me going freelance. I decided I never wanted to let a company have power over me like that again.

The fact that it’s not uncommon for game companies to require you to relocate across the country just to lay you off is crazy. “Sorry we made you and your family move to an incredibly expensive city a few months ago to do a job you could have done remotely - also you’re now out of a job. :)”
