🔥 When you’re broke but brilliant: Blender. 💸 When the client pays in USD: Maya.
🧠 Creativity in Africa is unmatched

Zooming in on the process!
Sharing a closer look at the sculpt and how it’s built in Zbrush.
Big love to stylized forms & exploration.

🟣 ZBrush = AAA sculpting beast.
🟠 Blender = Open-source all-rounder.
🔍 TL;DR:
Go ZBrush if you’re aiming for sculpting
Go Blender if you’re an generalist
💭 Which one’s your ride-or-die—and why?

It's my first time making a 3D #animation, but I'm very satisfied! I intend to use this for gliding mid-air, to stretch your jump's reach. Do you like it?

My mixed media painting of a parent and child. I used fabric for their clothing, cowry shells and a bow and ribbon for their baby. This painting is titled Motherly Love. I hope you like it. #artistontiktok #africanartist #africanart #artistoninstagram #artist #artwork #artexhibit #art

Store bought magic is fine sometimes
A digital four panel comic starring Anton, a waifish white unicorn man who has very long white head hair and happens to be a wizard, buying a can of spells at a grocery store. In the first panel he stands in front of a fridge with transparent glass doors, looking at the available cans and bottles. In the second panel he’s taken out a can with a moon and some four point stars on it, and thinks to himself “Well…I certainly don’t have the energy myself today.” In the third panel he scans the can at a self checkout stand. The words “Thank you” and a smiling puppy face appears on the screen. In the fourth panel he’s outside the store in the dark, he opens the can and looks up in the air with a gentle smile as a crescent moon, a bunch of stars and swirling, smoke like magic rises out of it.

Kiara, an African American dancer who likes to share her culture. Her sister, on the other hand would rather just stick with ballet #originalcharacter #animation #standwithanimation #characterdesign

Glad that people in Africa (and not just South Africa) will actually get to see a series that's set in a (fictional) African country at the same time the U.S. does!

"Iyanu" will stream on #Showmax in 44 African countries when the series premieres in 2025.

The series is also coming to #CartoonNetwork and #Max in the U.S. in 2025.
