My art output has dropped lately, and it’s because I’m going through Some Stuff. Between moving cross-country and car repairs my situation is a bit tough until the next paycheck. I know my art is rookie stuff, but if you enjoy what I do I wouldn’t mind a little help right now.
Another fresh drawing: Mega Allie. I spent way too long shading this one. #fanart #pokemon #gardevoir #megagardevoir
Allie is ABSOLUTELY not a morning person. Who can blame her? Mug art by @melfunnysmell.bsky.social #blender #bed #pokemon #gardevoir #fanart
Finally added a little UV shading to Allie's hair, in addition to the procedural texture. It's turning out pretty nice. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir
When you get home after work and its 36°c outside:

Support for Aster's new look has been 100% positive, and with some frizz added I am now 100% sold too. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir
Aster tries out a new hairdo. I can't decide if it suits him or not. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir
Disheveled yet positively glowing. Draw your own conclusions. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir #fanart
Allie can nap like no other. All her Gardevoir grace goes out the window the INSTANT it's nap time. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir #fanart
Making hair frizz that works with Allie's existing poses and shape keys has been tedious but oddly relaxing. Figuring out how to blend the normals by distance with Geometry Nodes, on the other hand... #b3d #blender #pokemon #gardevoir #wip
J's 2.0 model has re-learned how to Wiggle. Shout out to @naelstrof.bsky.social for the Jiggle Physics add-on! #blender #b3d #pokemon #umbreon
Finally happy with this animation. Allie seems happy too. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir
Allie has good reason to be so smug, even if on the inside she is screaming at the horror of student debt. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir #fanart
Allie Idle Loop: The Extended Edition. There's still a lot I need to clean up and adjust, but it's fun re-learning animation. #blender #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir #wip
Some ring close-ups. I'm slowly but surely fixing all the problems so they *actually* match. Allie's is proving especially hard to rig due to the bulkiness of her fingers. #blender #b3d #pokemon #umbreon #gardevoir
Aster attempts smugness of his own, fails spectacularly. #blender #pokemon #gardevoir #fanart
Her smugness is astonishing.
Almost everything has been moved out of the giant properties menu. Some driver bones have individual property menus for small tweaks, but her major expressions don't need to be tracked down in a giant list anymore. #blender #b3d #wip #pokemon #gardevoir #fanart
Trying to find a way to convert all these custom properties into more intuitive controls in a way that doesn't clutter up the screen that doesn't involve a dozen extra bones or actually learning Python. So far I've got nothing. #b3d #pokemon #gardevoir
