I decided to get EXTRA spooky this Halloween and check in on ten years of artistic progress. Now buddy, that is a deep in your spine kinda fear. No ghosts or ghoulies can contend.

Two lumpy plant painted dudes. One is kinda coconut and one is kinda bonzai.

A buff dude with a beard smokes a cigarette. He's wearing a tank and boots and weird green gauntlets. He's wearing a tank top and boots and a pair of weird green gauntlets.

It's really hard for me to work in 3D because there are parts of the process that make me laugh so hard I just want to share 300 wips. The worst part is I think it's only funny to me. I have made so much shit in Blender but I don't post it because none of it is ever 'finished' or whatever.

Two 3D renders of an old man with a horrifically bad texture paint job. He is making very stupid faces showing his teeth, they look worse perhaps than the artist realized, before turning the materials on to check them.

A side by side duplicate of a 3D model of an old man with very bad textures. On the left hand version, the displacement is bad enough that he looks like he's rotting. The one on the right looks decent only by comparison.

Very rude dude

This is a low angle shot of the monster Dead Hand, from the game "Ocarina of Time"

It is digitally painted and pretty mucky looking. His mouth is open and shrieking, and his hands are reaching towards the camera.

My ma has given me this hand weight so now I have something to do whenever Blender freezes and or crashes my entire PC

Truly I am blessed

The Headless Horsezen rides again! We bring spooky tidings to you all...

Autumn trees at night and a rustic wooden fence. A short headless figure in purple vestments and a red cape sits atop a rearing horse, holding a jack-o-lantern up in the air. The horse is shadowy in color with pale hair and a glowing red eye.

Hitting that TrueRef challenge again! ( #TrueRefDT008 )
Not entering as a formal contestant this time but I still wanted to participate cause I had a lot of fun with the last one. (Also I got a little hit of inspiration.)

A man adorned in flowers and a gauntlet on one hand, resting on a stone wall. His arm is propped up on a longsword, and the weapon is pinned down in the middle of a crown on the ground. He is surrounded by flower bushes and other vegetation.

Some studies I quite enjoyed. Ref source is from Medievalists on YouTube, there's a fun video demonstrating mobility in #armor. I swiped some (fairly blurry!) stills and did my best to construct the same pieces in all of these positions with relative consistency.
