Here's one of the two scenes I made for the recently premiered "Chicken Little: Rehatched." Tried some different styles than what I'm used to, even did some light voice acting!
If you're interested, the full collab is out on YouTube, though these two are my only scenes. Viewer discretion advised.

Alright, another singular scene all blocked out for project 3. Here's the timeline of my keyframes. Not all of the scenes are this long but... Uh... Still painful!

Continuing my work on an Avatar: The Last Airbender collaboration project currently in development. For this scene, I'm evoking the style of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
Animation and icebergs are intended to still need work and I need to add the wake, but I think it's coming together!

Little animation I made the other day with my space crew all together. I've animated Coriander and Umlaut before, but I think this is the first time I've animated Teigh and I can already tell I'll have fun animating her in unique ways in the future.

Grease Pencil is a powerful tool that can be used in Blender to add 2D drawings to 3D environments.

I don’t have the data on it, but surely KPop Demon Hunters has the fastest turnaround time from introduction to Fortnite inclusion now. Maybe some viral TikTok dance has them beat but getting a full set of skins and emotes as well as in game weapons, items, and mode, surely the effort offsets that.

Got a bingo. Was an alright Direct. Felt like it was either the best Direct ever or the worst one ever depending on your franchise preferences. Nice that Galaxy 2 has finally made it over, still super excited for Tomodachi Life and Prime 4, and the Virtual Boy is wild. But also where was Splatoon?

Last-minute Nintendo Direct predictions. I know there are rumors and leaks out and about, but I'm keeping my board relatively uninfluenced.
Also, a good amount of carryover from my April Direct predictions. Feel like they'll happen here too.

Here's a Calvin piece of Direct info: Despite the first North American Direct ever premiering on a Friday, only 8 Directs before this upcoming one have been on a Friday. Excluding Pokémon presents, 7. Only counting general, 2. The last general Direct on a Friday was back in 2013, over a decade ago.

(This may be meaningless to people who don't use Blender, but I'm proud of myself for figuring it out, so...)
Blender's 2D drawing Grease Pencil objects are normally unaffected by translucent objects in front. I previously manually tinted mine, but today I found a compositing setup to do it!

With loved ones heading back to school, the gallery that is The Sketchy Summer 2025 is now complete. Thank you all for looking at my doodles, models, hurried screenshots, and animations throughout the Summer. I think I made some good stuff here and there!

Coming up with more concepts for aliens for Coriander's universe. Still tying to mix and match elements to make them feel like living characters, but also more alien than you'd find elsewhere.

After many years, we are now suddenly just two weeks away from Hornet's new adventure in Hollow Knight: Silksong! So here's an art.

Mysteries need detectives to solve them. But for supernatural mysteries, you may need my new character Detective Ayra. She has an ace up her sleeve when it comes to solving the mysteries of the dead, and that ace is her ghostly runes.

Just doodling. Came up with this classic fighter character. Lots of elements borrowed from fighting game characters of legend.

It's Appa from Avatar: The Last Airbender! Or at least, a working enough model for a scene I'm animating featuring them.

We're nearing the end of Sketchy Summer (Probably next Sunday,) so it's time for the annual tradition of creating fan art of Samus Aran from the Metroid series. This year, I bring you the model I made last year, enhanced and animated!
