Just over half way through the Rebelway Houdini Cinematic Lighting Course. One of the best classes I've taken, especially if you need more time in Solaris and Karma. #houdini #vfx #gamedesign #halo

If that graphics card is anything like my 4080 you can save money by cooking meals on your PC, maybe even bake inside the case?

That sucks, biggest role I lost out on was when it came down to me and a SEAL for hosting future weapons. Turns out I love VFX more.
