Technical #Animator @ Agora.studio

I work mostly in #UnrealEngine and #Maya these days, but have also been a technical artist and animator for #Unity mobile games. If you go back far enough I was also a Flash animator for social gaming and Adult Swim television.

My website is over a decade out of date. Will update it at some point!

Hmmm. Not too happy about having to upgrade my desktop PC to Win11. It doesn't have TPM 2.0, but I just learned it does have AMD's FTPM.

My laptop has Win11, so navigating its nonsense isn't an issue. It's the fact that I have to do a whole OS upgrade and reconfigure all the settings.

i cant believe ChatGPT lost its job to AI

So I ended up playing Overwatch Classic a few times this past week. It was great fun until I realized they removed the No Limits on heroes today. Ah well. I guess they wanted to create a nostalgia trip that included the fun being taken away again.

At least I can quit it on a high note this time.

Once again: folks should probably consider switching to Firefox. Especially if you, I don't know, rely on ad-blocking to navigate our glutted-as-shit modern internet, for instance?

Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week

Chrome's Manifest V3 transition is here. First up are warnings for any V2 extensions.

Google smart watches for kids so parents (and Google) can track them is so gross.
I never thought I'd ever see the northern lights here in a light polluted suburb outside of Boston. Damn are they cool! There were some intense moments as well as long lulls.

A little thread 🧵 [4/5]…

Inspiring drawings by Alan Stewart (Megaman and Yoshi) and Matt Kaufenberg (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle), and my 3D interpretations.

Hot damn! X-Men 97 is pretty awesome!

I loved the X-Men comics in early 90s, and was an avid collector. Other than the theme song, I never got too into the tv show back then. I think because Batman The Animated Series was better in so many ways. Anyways, being that I didn't have an affinity for the original show, I wasn't sure what to expect from the new series. I gotta say, it fills that void I've had for so long! Something that even the Fox movies couldn't do.

Old FF7 fan art, long but fun

This concept art shared by Spider-Verse visual development artist Yuhki Demers for a 'Batman Beyond' film that they are trying to make happen along with Patrick Harpin looks so ridiculously good. Not sure what it'd take and who needs to be convinced to turn things around and get this off the ground, but I really hope this project gets its chance.

“Before we pitched, they warned us "there is absolutely no way we can do a Beyond movie", but they loved our enthusiasm. We pitched the outline for the entire film, and what started as a 'never' turned into a 'maybe'."
