So here is for you all a silicone creature doing his morning stretch.

If you are a #rubberfur or #latexfur beware ⚠️. I got this glove "new" from #G-Pawz today with severe quality issues.

They cast expensive gears in clearly broken molds !
This is an offense to the customer.

The 1st day of 2026 is gone soon. It has been quite a year, I began an upcoming VRChat avatar, worked on a ambitious Vulkan renderer. I found a good job.

I tried to remake this effect, they got a nice sampling pattern and use of the depth buffer to get results that smooth. I will do proper maths on this another day maybe.

Say "hi" for my first post here! I hope one day to fill this blue sky with stunning rubber creatures I would have crafted. Here is my humble first shot so far, it won't be the last...
