Stop-mo PNGtuber for @foxander.bsky.social in the style of Fantastic Mr. Fox. Foxander messaged me about the idea and it seemed so cool! He sent me drawings and screenshots for the idea I got to work, it took a bit, but I streamed most of the process and am happy with the result! #3dart #vtuber

For about a year, I've been working as vizdev artist, science guy, & 3D CAD designer on an awesome project - Future Fossils. Directed by Jay Jay Burridge, Future Fossils is manufacturing a pack of life sized Megalosaurus skeletons, stylised as living machines. A thread (1/6) 🧵

This shit is dreck and I'm not scared of AI, what actually hurts my soul is seeing Jorge Gutierrez sell out to this AI plagiarism. I'm so fucking sad. I respected this man and his amazing films and series so much. This one really hurts. Goddamn it. Does he even know how it works? Sigh
Three AI animated series are heading to Prime Video streaming via Amazon MGM/AWS-backed GenAI Creators' Fund: 'Cupcake & Friends;' 'Love, Diana Music Hunters;' and 'Punky Duck' from Jorge Gutierrez.
Here’s a cleaner Wildwood promo pic, without all the text on it. It really gives you a sense of what the Landscapes department did. We hand made every asset you see here.

🚨 The keys to being a successful artist in 2026: - produce as many pieces as possible - make short form videos of you doing that ⚠️ What I'm doing: - spend forever on one piece - whining about pressure to make short form video
The way profit maxxing corpo culture has invaded every form of art through algorithms pushing people into daily posting is really weighing on me lately. Efficiency and regularity of making "content" being prized above all else feels so grim, man.
Been making an effort to doodle more on paper lately. Fun to crank out some little guys free of any Big Art™ pressure
Had the pleasure of making a sculpture of Sue the Tyrannosaurus rex for SHOWANNA Studio. 🦖 Pretty pleased with how this one turned out, I got to nerd out on all of her unique pathologies. The old girl lived a hard life!

While I'm laid up, I'm catching up on reading and note-taking. Here's what I jotted down from chapters 2-4 of @markwitton.bsky.social's "King Tyrant" before I had to take it back to the library.
I want to destroy the notion that STEM, humanities and arts, are separate units of knowledge and skill. And if you do one, you can't do other. I am a geologist, professional artist and trained in international relations. They all complement each other.
Hey all! I want to wish you all a Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year! Here's a couple of baby Seikrets being cute, because let's be honest, they are freaking adorable. Thank you all for the inspiration through your words and actions. Here's to 2026 being a better year!

Triceratops model exploration done over the weekend. This is not based on a particular specimen. While we have some skin impressions from triceratops frills, I elected for larger scales along its surface to study different keratin textures.
