It is done. I am free of Silksong (finished that first 100% playthrough)

Now that I am my own being again with free will, I've resumed some work on the OpenGL renderer (PHONG additions + model loading) and some Live2D model stuffs. Maybe some cool lil' posts coming soon.

Obligatory update pic

Blizzy update. So. Silksong releasing really muted my productivity aha.

I did get that basic PHONG implementation going. I expect I'll be stretched between Silksong and a definitely top secret blizzy art project for the next two or so weeks.

Spent some spare time adding a few quality of life changes to the renderer code this week. I think the goal for this next week is to implement a PHONG lighting model.

A lil' textured cube-post in the meantime

ACTUALLY WINNING TODAY!! After a few weeks I've finally gotten Live2D cubism to work on my linux pc.

Now I can be torn between c++ projects and the next Blizzy model in my limited free time. Hehehe

Finally set-up my c++ dev environment on my linux machine and I am once again back on my OpenGL adventures. Maybe some cube dev posts soon

Tonight in Blizzy learns OpenGL basics, I added some basic global directional lighting, and modified my point light to use attenuation and orbit.

Oh and importantly, more cubes.

Worked on extending my cube lighting scenes with lighting maps this weekend. I do enjoy myself a glowing box.

The cubes... they have... light material attributes now...
Midweek Learning Graphics Programming Shenanigans

This weekend in Blizzy learns Graphics Programming:
The Cube - Phong Lighting Model Edition

Turns out I assigned a matrix value incorrectly in my sleepy state and the cube now cubes. The joys of after work coding 🫣

Today in blizzy adventures. The cube in open gl. The pinnacle of 3D object basics (no pyramid enthusiasts). What could go wrong?

I was naive.

THE AUDACITY OF IT TO RENDER AS INTENDED ACROSS THE Y AXIS BUT ACROSS THE X-AXIS. IT'S HEMKING FLAT.

I am inconsolable, in tears and absolutely distraught.

It's been a lot of fun getting back into the streaming routine a bit. Next I just need to do the same for art related shenanigans

Here's a showcase of the last Live2D model I drew and rigged, Chibi Blizzy! 🙌

Since then I haven't done as much in the way of rigging but I should really get back into the swing of things and bring in bigger and better works :P

Hemlo sky lads, I heard you had B̶̳͚͙̖͚͈̅̾̋͛Ė̵̟̰͔̋̈A̢̹͇̬̘͓͇ͨN̞̤͕ͫ̽͞Sͯ̅̏͏̗̱̞̘ here.

I'm Blizzy, an Aussie artist and Vtuber. I like to draw, and rig Live2D models along with streaming on Twitch to my not a cult.

Because of life, I've been on and off hiatus for about a year now, but I'm hoping to become more active in the space.
