#PortfolioDay already? Don't mind if I do:
These models are all physical props that I built, painted and photographed myself. Don't let anyone tell you motion-control shots are a lost art, yet.

you learned nothing, you practiced nothing, you diminished yourself, you outsourced your human capacity for growth, intelligence, and personal reflection to a fucking jerk-you-off machine

Watch me build the J-77 Fulcrum from scratch:
Not quite enough detail for you? Full video is up on YouTube

Share your flying machines!

I love this tube. The way it’s filthier along the top where it’s less likely to be brushed against, the patch in the middle. It is segmented like a huge armored bug. The one discolored circle, like it was burned or overheated. I keep looking at it and finding more details that tell more stories
Pipe work. So cool environment stuf.

I need to go back.

The Rochelle Heavy Dynamics J-77 Fulcrum.
Kit and template for making it yourself are both available on my Etsy shop, go check it out!

Ugly. Heavy. Reliable.
The Rochelle Heavy Dynamics J-77 Fulcrum is the first choice when you need to get that ore shipment to Tau Ceti and you don't need it to be pretty.

New video up (hopefully) later today.

These look great!!
Painted the third sci-fi panel from @sublightdrive.bsky.social’s holiday ornament plans. Huge thanks to them for creating an easy way to get into this hobby. There’s nothing scarier than a blank canvas, and these simple plans helped me overcome that!

One of my major motivations for starting a YouTube channel was when I looked a video on how to do something, found exactly one result, watched it & thought “I could explain it better than THAT”
I’ve always tried to make my processes and builds as accessible as possible. Kitbashing is for everyone!
Share your knowledge if/when you can. Teaching other people how to do what you do doesn’t lessen your art - it just means more and better art for everyone.

I appreciate when people are willing to tell me about their brushes, how they study, etc… I want to put that back out into the world.

Post holiday model painting. A little overworked on the weathering, but I can pull it back tomorrow.

You know… I think this is one of the few times I’ll say that there’s probably no spectrum here. Especially given that every time I see an AI thing implemented in a game I think either “this is garbage” or “a person could’ve done better.”

There’s your middle ground. “Get it out. We can do better.”
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

Looks great!! Now you get to paint it 😃
Calling this one done! This is such a fun process

After many trials and tribulations I have modeled and print some stands for these spaceships. I will not be answering questions about how long it took or what the earlier drafts looked like.

Two dirty spaceships, in the pipeline. These are originals so I’ll have templates available in my shop once the video is up!

Owning a 3D printer has given me a near unlimited capacity for owning little plastic trinkets. Remains to be seen whether other uses exist (but I remain hopeful)

Looking for opinions- which geometry do you like best: Vertical indent, horizontal indent, or flat?

These aren’t even close to final, I’m just using my new 3D printer to do the prototyping

Hi, I'm Peter and I draw comics!

I've worked on the Avatar: the Last Airbender comics, written some Dragon Prince graphic novels, and created a few other things too.
