Democratic Wins Media

Analysts are calling this the biggest protest in American history. It’s far bigger than any rally Donald Trump has ever had. This is Boston. Rallies just like this are happening in cities big and small all around the country. Let’s go.

One thing before tomorrow:

Use your local libraries.

Get your card.

Borrow books, manga, films, audios, ebooks.

Recommend titles for purchase (usually online).

Attend promoted activities.

Fill out those "How are we doing?" questionnaires.

Tell your kids that libraries are good.

They are.

Executives putting Back of the box thinking over creative innovation got us in this mess and creativity is the only thing that will get us out it.

Progress shots for my first upcoming release! I don't know what to call --I'm thinking "Desert Dwellers" since mongolian gerbils come from the mongolian desert, but I haven't a clue yet. I just wanted to share! #3DArt #3DPrint #Zbrush #Maya #fantasy #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #tabletopgames

For all matte painters and concept artists.

These are scans of the original b/w line artwork created for the brass etched silhouettes used in BLADE RUNNER.

They were scanned whilst we were working on THE FIFTH ELEMENT

These are a free download

Enjoy!

Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken ceramic with gold. As part of a weekly challenge, I created a procedural Kintsugi material in #substancedesigner and rendered it in #ue5. I'm extremely pleased with how these turned out!
