If you guys like this, you're gonna love how I 3D model for pay (I'm looking for work lol)
Wrapping up this project was super fun! I've been working in Blender for the past few years, so I wanted to challenge myself by going back to Maya and getting a modeling project done!
You can check out high res renders and asset renders on my artstation: www.artstation.com/artwork/AZbY2e

NEW: After my last piece about what's slowing down game development, folks wrote in to ask "why didn't you talk about bad leadership?"
It uhhhh never came up. So I returned to the well and asked devs to explain why better leadership—not AI or any other tool—is vital to efficient game development.

No tool—AI or otherwise—can speed up game development if leaders don't rise to the occasion.

Don't think I mentioned this here but I'm just coming off of a small sabbatical. Lots of stress really put me on my ass and I just couldn't work without causing a migraine.
I spent some time away from socials, and my desk in general and I feel so much better.
I'm so happy to love doing this again

Being laid off feels especially hard when I remember how many times I put my job first before my own health, well-being, and family. When I worked weeknights until 11pm and on weekends to hit production quotas, during PTO, and filed three stories the day before it happened. There's a lot of grief.
