Hi! I'm a (mostly 3D) visual artist who loves words! Often too many words for short form content platforms. Let's see what we can make of this!

@yantor3d The animators I know might indeed need buttons to simplify requesting food, lest they go without for "just one more pass."

Today's tasks:
✅ Stay warm and pet cats
✅ Get back up to speed on the game project
🔲 Don't think about the job applications

Aw shoot.
Still, shoutout to lead dev @outfrost for assuring me my git bashing choices wouldn't break anything. I obtained both updated files and skills!

I wrote this #comic while frustrated about my lack of movement on a few things, but got to draw it this week on stream while elated to be still again (at least physically) after a month of travel.

Fall on Hard Times & Crush Them

I gotchu, long shutter cameras. I jotted down this comic script while frustrated with my own exhaustion and perceived stagnation, but was fortunate to actually draw it from a more positive perspective...

@cubertoy I so agree! Glad you found it. OMITB and Shipwrecked Comedy's Headless have filled my little cozy sweater, surreal humor heart the last couple years. (Though it is also one of the few shows that I have literally slept on because I had just seen the third season and encouraged a friend to watch it while I was staying over last thanksgiving and she's a leaving-the-tv-on-while-sleeping person--so we did eventually pass out and wake up to it.)
On stream this month, I've been having fun designing this #dragon #toy, the winner across platforms of the vote for "what wood dragon object to make for the lunar new year." We're almost done with the #modeling and probably halfway through #rigging (haven't touched the tail or figured out the automated wheel rolling), and I'm excited to get to that carved wood texturing practice that started this.

Watts, a #dragon #character I made in 2021, is finally released in as much completion as he's getting for now. #Sketchfab here (link to an in-depth #blog post about him in the description there):

Watts the Lightbulb-Hoarding Dragon - 3D model by cjgladback

Watts is an original character I made in early 2021, baby of a species of dragons designed around the idea of hoarding lightbulbs and taking inspiration from ten creatures with varying levels of connection to electricity, light, and gentle touch. You can read a long blog post explaining this project here: https://cjgladback.com/post/740072482002862082 - Watts the Lightbulb-Hoarding Dragon - 3D model by cjgladback

Hi! I'm a (virtual) #3D artist and want to make something for the #LunarNewYear in a few weeks and practice wood texture → it's the year of the wood dragon. What kind of wooden #dragon object should I design?

Feels bad I couldn’t draw much of my girl this year, so I treated myself today.

I got my first full-size #process video up on #YouTube! And it's the #dinosaurs that I thought I was almost done with this time last year! But I'm actually done now! Exclamation points!
