In my latest video, I walk through hard surface modelling workflows in Autodesk 3ds Max, using one of my own custom cutting tools to speed up the process. That said, everything demonstrated can still be done using the vanilla version of 3ds Max. #3dsMax #HardSurfaceModeling

#Netflix is going to remove an AI Edited poster developed for #Arcane. With #RiotGames brand lead saying its disrespectful. Interesting given that #RiotGames have also launched a Generative AI internship 🤔

Currently, not being well received! #RiotGames internship in #generativeAI, I belive this comes after redundancies in the art department as well.

Still not 100% happy with this! As often the case working in education, I hardly get time to complete projects! Work flow was #Fusion360 #zbrush #3ds #substance #Painter & back to #3ds to render! Give me a follow on #ArtStation any feedback welcome!
