I attempted to make something special for Art Fight. Didn't quite get it done in time - but I had a blast working on this character by chaoses_living_proof! Here's the first part. #blender3d #artfight2026 #dragon

Alright!! With this we're caught up! This is everything I've got done on Noelle so far. I worked on setting up the main animator-facing controls in this one, creating controls for the tongue and handles for the ears. Almost done with her! #deltarune #noelle #blender3D #rigging

Part 4 of Noelle's face rig. Things are starting to come together! I work a lot on weight painting, set up eyelid controls and a pupil control. #deltarune #noelle #blender3d #rigging

Here's the next bit of Noelle's face rig! Made some changes to the shape of the face to make it a bit less uncanny, wiring up the jaw and creating some teeth! #deltarune #noelle #blender3d #rigging

Hey y'all! Accumulated a bit of a backlog working on Noelle's face rig. Here's part 2 of that process, creating a bunch of deformation bones, setting up the first constraints and creating the eye controls. #deltarune #noelle #blender3d

Tried my hand at some actual animation with my Ralsei model last month! Just remembered today I also have a bluesky to share this on 😅 Thanks to @revtrosity.bsky.social for letting me use his voice talent! #ralsei #deltarune #blender3d #3dcharacter

Here he is!!! It’s @wingedwolf94.bsky.social ‘s Cadaver character. Was a fantastic exercise in animating with big fur meshes… but god my wrists are still killing me 😅 #furryart #cadaver #wingedwolf94

Been working on something new! Used Blender 5.0 for the first time ever to work on this fella. Was a pretty tough crash course, but I’m very happy with how he’s coming along! Any guesses as to who this character is?? 👀 #furryart #wip #blender3d #rigging #characterdesign

Made a version of my Ralsei animation with his hat on! #deltarune #ralsei #blender3d #3danimated

You guys want to see an old project? Check out this old OpenGL lipsync animation I made with my old Niko model! This project is old as dirt now, around ~6 or so now. Maybe I should revisit Oneshot again. Audio is from Ponyo. #Oneshot #niko #3danimated #Blender

Alright, here's the big reveal!!! My next project is Noelle! Just finished her retopology and did some texture painting. Super excited with how she's looking so far! Rigging series to come! #deltarune #noelle #blender3d

Huh. Just ran into my first case of art theft today… someone reposted my latest video on Reddit without permission and it blew up.

This might be the last Ralsei thing I do for a while. Here’s a fully-rendered Ralsei with my first attempt at a fur sim! #deltarune #ralsei #blender3d #animated

Check this out! This is Dexter, another small project of mine. Still a work in progress - his rig needs lots of work - but I'm really excited by how he's looking so far! #blender3d #characterdesign #wip #dragonoc

Here’s my favorite technical view. This is Ralsei’s bone cage! These are the bones that actually move his mesh around—and they only make up a fraction of his armature! #ralsei #deltarune #blender3d #rigging #animation

Here’s a wireframe of the short test animation I put together a few days ago. Think this looks pretty neat! Will have some more technical stuff out in a few days. #deltarune #ralsei #blender3d #3dart #animation

Check out this old animation I made a while ago! Found some super cute shark puppy designs from Nekoama, and thought it’d make a fun modeling/animation challenge. This little fella is about six years old. #blender3d #sharkpup #3dart #characterdesign #animated

Hey yall! I make 3D models and complicated rigs. Check out this Ralsei bust I’ve been working on! #blender3d #ralsei #deltarune #rigging
