After much messing around in affinity I think I managed to get something that works for night and dusk/dawn. Still not 100% on the sunset version but I did learn a new thing in affinity.
Trying my hand at making a more stylized background in #blender. Daytime was the easy one but trying to turn it to night and sunset was a lot of trial and error. Does anyone have any tips on how to do it properly?
Happy Labor Day! Today we're bringing you The First Union, as told by HBomberguy (@hbomberguy.bsky.social) and illustrated by Skutch (@skutchdraws.bsky.social) It's the dawn of the industrial revolution, and of the way many of us work... Have you ever heard of the term "Luddite" from an elder?
Thinkin a lot lately on how to return to the pre-enshittified internet, if not as a society, at least for my own personal practice. It would be so cool to have a little personal blog or newsletter or website where I can just share my stuff without worrying about likes, or ads, or algorithms
A lot of folks wanted this to use on their own projects and such so I made a patreon post (free and public) with a download for the illustrator file or a PDF of the asset guide. You can find it here. www.patreon.com/teeketch/pos...
Always happy to help pals out with their projects anyway I can. Ben asked if they could use this badge I made ages ago and I was happy to oblige. I even made some alternates and said use whichever they preferred. Check out the game and support/follow if you can 🤙💙

An exercise in playing with materials. Didn’t quite get the knife right but this is still one of my favorites so far. #blender #b3d #artistsonbluesky
UK folks, let's jump on this AI regulation petition the Society of Authors emailed out! It's an actual parliament one so the government HAS to respond if it reaches the signature threshold. It calls for regulations to make AI developers disclose copyrighted works trained on. Sign & repost!! ❤️

We ask the Government to introduce a statutory duty requiring AI developers to disclose the copyrighted works used to train generative AI in enough detail for creators to identify use of their work, e...

New book! Ok, maybe not exactly new, it's been sitting on my bookshelf for a few months now. But. I made a promise to myself that I'd start reading more again, so new book. #newread #amreading #booksky
I'm not sure if I'm ever going to finish this one at this point. I've been poking at it on and off for months and trying to get the textures and lighting right is driving me a bit mad (hence why there are none here). Kind of fitting given the subject matter, I guess. 😂 #b3d #3dart #wipwednesday

Some blender modeling practice. The challenge was to see how far I could get modeling a house in an hour. These two houses took an hour each exactly.
Some color variations I've been playing with for my moths. Particularly in love with the red, black and white set.
I've been spending more time in procreate lately trying to draw stuff. It's fun to see progress. I gotta stop making twenty different color versions of things though. 😂 I just can't decide which ones like the best.
This is as far as I'm going to get with this one for now. I had planned to make a full scene out of this but it's my first time playing with textures and I'm still figuring out how to make it do what I want it to do. I'll come back to it in the future when I've had a bit more practice.
First finished blender project that I've made without using a tutorial. Just in time for the new year. 🥳
Still a work in progress but I wanted to see if I could make a background for a VN I've been working on. So far, so good... This is my first render without a tutorial too. 🎉 The pink in the frames will eventually be mirrors or paintings.
