It's been a long time in the making but it's all systems go soon. What started as a catch-all for prop and environment work is turning into a nice little site.
It'll feature props, textures, and original music from me and my brother. Hopefully to help your indie projects along.

Rigging is something that's felt daunting to me. It feels awkwardly technical. But this breakdown by @DemNikoArt makes it feel like the artform it can be. Very freeing and fun to watch.

Working on something and need to surface to see if you're happy with this. What am I missing? Are you represented here?

Praising films with "absolutely no CGI" while this is on screen.
VFX artist will go down in history as one of the most shit-on professions.
When it's bad, everyone's a hater.
When it's good, people give the credit to someone else while the director and cast pretend you don't exist.

I have to brag. It's the best tool I've made. I'm excited for the narrative opportunities this opens up for my work. All in Blender.

A few small quality updates to Third Person Kit this morning! Based on user feedback I added:
- full screen toggle for controller mode
- free cam mode (tab to toggle), so you can rotate around your character without changing direction.

By popular demand (like maybe two emails) I’ve decided I’ll be releasing my tools Timelapse orbit and Hotbox on Superhive.
Patreon supporters will still get access, but many just want all tools in one place! I get it.

Small update to Third Person Kit tonight: Camera will now have collision you can enable. This is useful for confined interior spaces. It helps avoid camera clipping through walls.
You can also now zoom the camera in and out with the scroll wheel.

I'm about one more weekend away from releasing a top secret Blender tool I've been working on 😁💃
It completely changes what I'm able to make in Blender. I hope it does the same for you. Excited to show it off soon! I've learned if I show before it's done, I lose motivation.

I think my favorite aspect of Blender 5.0 is it gets the compositor into the asset browser and allows artists to package and distribute their own compositor setups.
This opens up so many opportunities for compositing in Blender. We're going to see a lot of great tools shared.

It's a shame. I built a sizeable following on a platform that just annoys me to get on now 😅 Haven't touched it in a while.
The 3D community at large is very fragmented across socials. I don't feel like there's a place anymore where it's like "oh yeah, we're on this platform. Go network there."
