Made a game-ready birch tree for my portfolio. It's a very small piece, but thought I'd share :)

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

Got back into Speedtree again! This floofy birch I made is a whopping 500k tris and I'm gonna optimize it to make it game ready. What is polybudget for a PC tree nowadays? ~20k?

2024 currently has more known games industry layoffs than 2023+2022 combined.

2024 is roughly 600 layoffs away from doubling 2023. There is still plenty of business days left in the month.

I can't emphasize enough how extreme these last few years have been.

So far.

Just wrapped up my 8-week Houdini VEX course on #CGMA! Learned so much, from coding ivy growth and pyroclastic noise to erosion effects. It’s been an awesome journey, and I’ve gained a ton of new skills! 🥳

The reason I am so passionate about real-time lighting lies in its incredible power to transform and shift atmospheres. It’s a tool that brings emotion and depth to every scene. Here is a lighting test recording of my personal project, Lacrimosa, where I explored this very essence. 🌥️ #UE5 #Lumen

Taking the chance to repost some useful stuff I made in the past

There is a secret Volumetric Painting tool I hid in the #UE5 Valley of the Ancient demo project (free)

You can paint how wind flows, affecting fog, sand and small debris

Wow. I had no idea on BlueSky you can enable external media so you can watch YouTube videos on this platform. It overcomes the problem of only being able to upload 60 seconds of video here. It’s gets better & better

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!
