This week's #Blendsday prompt is guitar. I made this rad keytar

And here's a timelapse of that coming together

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I ignored the prompt and made a little dolphin friend

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "crab." I made this friend

And here's a timelapse of that one coming together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Oyhjg4FMss

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I made a start on three seashells, but didn't end up finishing it off

Here's how the animation came out - not quite as bad as it was looking from the viewport preview, but still a lot of hair clipping through the body geometry

For the midweek session, I revisited this spaceship that never really came together during a previous #Blendsday session last year. Still don't think it's quite there, but it was fun to think about detailing https://mastodon.social/@Cheeseness/109967918582588344

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "blade." I made this shiny sword

And here's a timelapse of that one coming together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4Hu9Hq8I8s

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I made a different kind of blade (and a little friend to live on it_, inspired by a piece of card art I made for one of my Hand of Fate 2 mods years ago

This week's #Blendsday prompt was igloo again. For the midweek session, I made this little low poly scene and then animated it too fast

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "cork." For the midweek session, I decided to poke around with my little icy scene from last week a bit more. Added more ocean tile variants, a little campfire, made the narwhal bob up and down, and re-centred the camera

This week's #Blendsday activity was "increasing interval studies" where we make a thing multiple times, taking more time with each iteration. I made this egret. Couldn't get much done in 30 seconds, but it fun interesting to try!

And here's a timelapse of today's session https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLGVR4-wLU8

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I made some trees (30 seconds, 1 minute, 10 minutes, and 20 minutes)

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "horsey." I made this horsey.

And here's a timelapse of that one coming together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHXARhQfwLE

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I made this sea horsey.

This week's #Blendsday prompt is planet. I made these little low poly planets from icospheres

I had initially wanted to make the planets sized to scale and have to (a different) scale distances too, but I couldn't find a good balance of the two scales that allowed Uranus to be in frame and the sun to not eat Mercury. The solar system is a very big, very empty place.

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I went back to my model from the weekend and created an animation that illustrates how far away Neptune is from the rest of the planets. I couldn't come up with a nice way to get a driver to control text content, so I made some tumblers and did a modular division of my scale multiplier to set their rotations.

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "board." I made this pool scene with a diving board

And here's a timelapse of that one coming together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f67mgj8lP7A

For the midweek session, I modelled roundbord (a femle blackbird who visits my yard)

This week's #Blendsday activity is "three moods" where we're invited to create a simple scene with primitives, and then use techniques other than modelling to try and express three different moods from the same scene. I made a little snowglobe and tried to use different camera framing to give different senses of "intimacy."

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I made a quick city

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "frog." I made this little cubefrog

Tried a few extra iterations to see if there was anything I liked better than cubefrog. Cubefrog is best frog though

And here's a timelapse of all that coming together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLun6TW-s0w

Was hoping to have time to do some sculpting for the midweek #Blendsday session, but I've got a bunch of work to get done, so I gave my little cubefrog some friends and tightened up the animation a little

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "Bucket." I made Bucket from Firewatch (or how I imagine Bucket to look - don't think I quite captured his "scruffyness"

And here's a timelapse of that one coming together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eb7Qk4MjhuY

Had a couple of good WIP moments along the way with this one

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I made this well

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "fence." I made Inigo's sword from The Princess Bride

And here's a timelapse of that one coming together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHJNpbRCRXU

For the midweek #Blendsday session, I made the thieves' guild scene from Quest for Glory 1, where you go to fence your stuff. Was hoping to add in a bunch more extra faces with different colours like the pattern on the back of the guildmaster's chair and use compositing to crunch it back down to a proper EGA palette, and also add the red brick frame around the scene as seen in-game, but I ran out of time this afternoon

The prompt for this week's #Blendsday activity is "childhood memory" - I made another one of my first Transformers toys - Cosmos. I focused more on building out the parts instead of detailing, so it looks a bit plain, but I might be able to animate it for the midweek session
