Hey! Wanted to share an update. Substance 3D Assets has recently removed the need to manage points to download assets for subscribers. However, if you’ve got points from previous Substance 3D subscriptions, the 3D Assets Library is open to you until the end of March.

In a cozy corner of a town, stood a hipster snowman, with a quirky frown. His scarf was plaid, his hat was tweed, he sipped on lattes and read books with speed.

Here's a little holiday project created with Project Neo, Illustrator & After Effects! #projectneo #aftereffects #illustrator #digitalart
