My student Amya just turned in this season-appropriate project for one of my animation classes. #blender3d #buffalostate

While returning home from the Blender Conference I saw this out the window of my plane somewhere over Lake Ontario. I swear this is real. #b3d

I'm going to be doing these all month.

My grandfather recorded this in 1993 in the woods near his home. He swears it was real. And stupid. #b3d

I'm teaching geometry nodes this semester in one of my animation classes, so here's some new work by Tori, J'juan, Rebecca, and Ayden. #b3d

The first assignment in one of my 3D animation courses is to remake a film studio logo animation (vanity card) as closely as possible, but change the text. I made my own. Fellow GenX folks will remember this one. #b3d

Spaceship Sunday! I wanted to see if I could build a large ship with only geometry nodes. I love this software - ...plays in realtime. #blender3d #spaceship #b3d

Hi everyone. My son Oliver (the talented pizza chef below) and I are heading to St. Jude's tomorrow for his next scan. He had a brain tumor successfully removed over six years ago, but needs a scan every four months. Before each scan I request positive energy from the good folks on bsky. Thanks!
