#blender #3d #animation #rigging tip: Muscle bones

1 bone parented to the shoulder 1 to the arm. NonDeformation. Create deform bone on shoulder snapped to both. Then add these modifiers. For Rigify set the pin bons to MCH-Name and deformation bone to DEF-Name. Now shoulder deforms better.

I was half way making a commander feral model when I saw how much fan #art he got and read the internet comments. I didn't know so many men in the 90s realized they were #gay because of him.

A cocky muscular man with a chad chin but with strong morals? Its obvious in hindsight.

The painterly normal node I made for substance designer, still needs some work but this height map might be the most impressive thing I have. Lets hope hand painting goes smoother than designer part.

If this works, the library of nodes I have been building might be put online one day.

I looked at humble bundle looking for more #3d asset bundles and saw this. Its a lot of tutorials about using ChatGPT and it has a tutorial on "vibe based" #gamedev. Is this really a tutorial on Vibe #coding?

I am in tears lol. The comments say the courses are AI generated too.

#3d #art secret for texturing

Using only a normal map, you can mix together curvature maps to get a gradient you can use as a base for a new color map. The 2nd path is designer specific to add more color variation by shape.

This can work in things like #blender too.

I was cleaning up my substance designer nodes when I decided to make a fully dynamic base pattern for a parquet floor that simulates light. Why did i put this much effort into a floor pattern most people think is ugly? I dont know. No one was there to stop me I guess.

To make sure what happened last month never happens again, i am now learning #2D #art #painting so i can export that knowledge to #blender #3D

This #wip is the first time something looked good, lets hope I can make painterly assets that look even better

Mictlantecuhtli, the lord of death, is now finished for the #pwnisher #3D #art #Challenge in #blender

Thanks to a swatch, he uses next to no VRAM with no fear of stretching. Lets hope this is a fitting centerpiece.

Maybe I can make a #halloween #parody of him later

for the #pwnisher #3d #art challenge i created an ice floor texture that you will barely see in the distance. So let me bring it up close.

One of my favorite finds at Museo Nacional de Antropología was this clay #aztec head that looks way too much like a modern #fursuit a #furry would wear to a #convention

This is an #WIP engaving from the #aztec site xochicalco in #blender. Since the 3D scan was low quality, i had to carve all the detail back in by hand. I desperately need more #history scans, but no one I ask knows of any. This might even become an asset pack for #gamedev
June 18, 2025 at 4:08 AM
the first #game asset is done, just needs lods. This #mesoamerica serpent head came out better than it had any right to.

After revamping the wings I can safely say these are the most advanced wings I have ever made. This is one #3d #blender #furry model has so many major milestones for me its truly insane.

All those bird creatures I planned suddenly dont seem so impossible.

I dont usually cross post from my other account, but getting this hair right is an achievement. Multiple versions both of the #3d mesh and the textures and I think I finally got in the ball park the reference image.

I know when I show her to her creator, she will be thrilled

While working on a #furry #3d character for another artist this character had a chain piercing, so I made a #blender #geonode set up for pseudo physics!

Its not as good as I hoped it would be however since they are very limited, true physics nodes cant come soon enough.

In the #history #book "Cycles of Time in the Mexican #books of destiny" by Elizabeth hill, multiple days are said to end in you being shot in the most hilarious ways possible if you travel those days.

"be #aztec, get shot" I guess lmao

This is a #3D model #WIP of #aztec god Tlaloc in #blender cycles. Cycles isnt real time so the denoiser makes it a little blurry. I made it for an #art contest a long time ago, but maybe I should go back to it using my new skills.

I forgot I had this, and Bluesky has videos now. This is the LT of Turmoil from the #animation #furry #tv show #swatkats

This is the 2nd version of the swat kats characters, and V3 is already planned because I think I can improve on this.

This is an #aztec #legend from the #history #book "America's first Cuisines", a book about precolumbian #indigenous #food. A #god fat shaming priests carrying gold offerings is #funny enough, but the morals behind it is profound. You choose to be young, and success might actually be hurting you.

I have started on the second #blender #3d model of the series

This character gets to no love, and from what I see I am the first to make a model of the Lieutenant from the #90s #furry #tvshow #swatkats

Still a #wip though
July 3, 2024 at 12:19 PM
While I am finishing up Turmoil's #3d #model I have begun work on another #swatkats character.

This is going to test everything I learned since turmoil

this might be the harshest book review i ever seen in a textbook about Mexican books of destiny. Imagine being attacked this hard over 400 years after you wrote your book. I guess modern authors should hope not to get this treatment in 2423. #lit #mythology #books #history 📚👀

I originally intended there to be actual fire on the #3D animation, but adding this was a huge tax on my machine. Between the volume adding 7 hours render time in Blender, it also made my GPU run out of VRAM with the water physics.

I learned very hard that VFX was not "easy" compared to modelling
