Last week was my last week at Iron Gate - After three years working on Valheim, it's time to start looking for new adventures elsewhere.

If you know someone looking for a kickass Tech Artist/Programmer, hit me up. Happy to work either remote, or on-site in Stockholm.

🔮Finished up this 'Crystal Ball' shader project yesterday. ✨

What started off as a quick weekend project quickly expanded (as usual), but I'm very happy with it!

More vids are on my art station here:

Shouting about time drop workouts as they've made working out soooo much easier for me!!!

I always struggled with the next set (can I do this again?!?!?), but knowing the time has dropped makes it so much easier. ✨

As of a week ago I was unfortunately affected by restructuring efforts at BLE.
I am now actively looking for freelance/remote fulltime and contract work!
If you need a stylized 3D environment artist who's excited to make cool things please send me a DM 🙂

Oh my fucking god.

It looks like Israel murdered eight Palestine Red Crescent Society workers, a UN employee, and five civil defense staff.

They crushed up and buried entire ambulances and civil defense vehicles in the fucking mass grave.

I finally finished this little project a few days ago! ✨ I was inspired by the early watercolour pokemon art by Ken Sugimori. It's a combination of a standard and post-process material.

I have a whole post up now too: www.artstation.com/artwork/wr93Zg 😊

being an indie bookseller in the helltimes has felt both very stable and very stabilizing, and part of me wishes everyone could be on my side of the counter for a little while, because I think it would help some of you be a little less cynical and doomy right now. so here is my VERY anecdotal data:

Genuinely couldn't believe this figure until I saw the Financial Times confirm it using Meta's own financial reporting data

For THIS

$100 billion is genuinely the kind of money you could "do the impossible" with. Crack nuclear fusion. HIV vaccine. Universal flu vaccine

And they spent it on this
Meta has spent over $100 billion on VR.

I finally finished up with this project I'd been working on tonight!!

It's inspired by the early watercolour pokemon art by Ken Sugimori. 😊

I'm still putting together the actual post (and I'm already up wayyy too late), so here's a quick video of how it turned out. 😄
