Been breathing in the small joy and hope the #artemis has been giving me lately in this chaotic world we live in. Had to make at least a little fan art/desktop background. #blender #3Dart

The moon sitting in a sea of stars. A thin streak of light of the spacecraft flying around it.

Lovely photo date day with @cassiesstory.bsky.social . We rolled dice for our colors to photograph and lens to use. #photography

Good luck to every one at NASA and the Artemis II crew. All the good vibes going you way.

Blender adaptive subdiv stress test. Being able to preview displacement in eevee before rendering to cycles is a game changer for making sure nothing clips through geometry. #blender #3d #3dart #animation

Kit bashing and modelling random space trinkets. #b3d #3D

An industrial scifi screen, with buttons and knobs on a wooden desk.

I was working on UI pieces and think I technically made Battlefront fan art. #3D #gamedev

Track days are a joy of a place to take a camera out too.

Grabbed the camera for a foggy morning.

A figure just visible in the mist on a path. Branches obscure the foreground.

Starting the new year with a plan with my wife to watch one movie from each of the last 100 years of cinema that we havent seen. 2 randomly picked years each week. The first weeks years are 1929 and 2015. Always happy to get recommendations. #100yrsOfMovies

Exploring retro 3D software and getting into the winter spirit with VistaPro. So much fun seeing these tools render out in high resolutions.

I always love the small moments when so many people can look up and have a shared moment of simply seeing something beautiful. A little reminder we all share this precious little space stone together.

Pulling out an old spooky animation for Halloween. Stay spooky friends. #b3d #3danimation #blender

A walk in the woods always does me a world of good.

With 'Final Destination: Bloodlines' in cinemas, here's @beforesmag.bsky.social's ode to the infamous log truck VFX in 'Final Destination 2'. I crawled through Digital Dimension’s old website to find some amazing video & info about how *that scene* was made. beforesandafters.com/2025/05/18/a...

Looking for recommendations for some albums to pickup for Bandcamp Friday, especially in the instrumental, orchestral, electronic, vaporwave genres. Let me know of any artist on there I should check out! #bandcamp #bandcampfriday

3D animation practice piece. Enjoyed putting the audio together for this one too. #b3d #3Dart

Biker Animation WIP. Working on more reliable cloth sim workflows. #b3d #blender #3d

The FEN, native to the second moon of the ringed planet, are curious and kind creatures. Their distinct fur helps them blend in with the snow and crystal caverns in which they live. A great sense of direction makes them helpful in finding cover during the frequent blizzards. #b3d #gamedev

Exploring terrains #b3d #3dart

Snowy mountains white with snow and deep blue shadows. A large peak rises in the center of the frame.

A foggy forest dawn with the trees silhouetted by the bright sun behind them.

Late night walking back to your car vibes. #b3d #3d

Uploading older art. Photos from Chicago.

A busy large stone building lighting split down the middle with.

A high rise building from above in black and white. Each floor alternates from glass to white facade creating stripes.

Two buildings overlapping one white and lit by the sun another dark and in shadow.

3 cooling towers on top of a skyscraper in black and white.

Taking HDR's while on vacation is a strangely nice way to remember moments of your trip while working once you're back. (Thanks polyhaven for some nice test models) #b3d #3D

Update on my pixel art guide for beginners: Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing! I also updated quite a bit of information too. I hope it will help somebody! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I never posted this here, but I made a pretty big write-up over on Tumblr for anyone interested in learning #pixelart! It's a guide on software, fundamentals, jargon and resources. Since links are legal on Bsky I can share it: www.tumblr.com/tofupixel/75... #tutorial Hope someone finds it useful!

A screenshot of a tumblr post reading:

"Title: So you want to learn pixel art?
Subtitle: Part 1 of ??? - The Basics!

Hello, my name is Tofu and I'm a professional pixel artist. I have been supporting myself with freelance pixel art since 2020, when I was let go from my job during the pandemic."

Two images comparing artistic improvement, the left is of a rudimentary tree, and the right is of a statue in a wall recess surrounded by plants and dappled light.

"My progress, from 2017 to 2024. IMO the only thing that really matters is time and effort, not some kind of natural talent for art.

This guide will not be comprehensive, as nobody should be expected to read allat. Instead I will lean heavily on my own experience, and share what worked for me, so take everything with a grain of salt. This is a guide, not a tutorial. Cheers!"

Using #nodevember to finally dive deep into geometry nodes and start stretching my knowledge there. First setup turns simple shapes into bottles with liquid of a random color and height in them. #b3d #3dart

A wooden table with a variety of different size and shaped glass bottles filled with different colored liquids on it.

Happy Halloween to all from spooky dungeons filled with skeletons! #gamedev #b3d #retro3d

A video game window showing 2 skeletons in a dark dungeons in a retro pixilated style. One of the skeletons is covered in vines. There's a text window that says "It's only a matter of time before you become a walking corpse just like us! The houglass is almost up!"
