The background artist equivalent is spending a whole day carefully painting one background because the fidelity needs to hold up to 4K resolution only for it to be blurred for the shot by the compositing team

Is gmail busted? I've been signed out can't remember my password it's been literal years. When I choose forgot password it does nothing. Account recovery asks me to sign in with my password? How must I fix this without spending hours trying to guess my old password?

Destiny was my one and only time I got to work on a AAA game. While it was just some small icons for the menus, I genuinely enjoyed doing the work. It also got me to start playing the game and ended up sinking in thousands of hours into it. Sad day today.

Happy International Museum Day! Museums hold the world’s greatest treasures, which is probably why they make such incredible settings for games 🎮 To celebrate, Relooted will be on sale from today, May 18th to May 23rd!

Enjoy the first 20 minutes of gameplay, narrated by two of the lead developers, from Relooted, the upcoming action/adventure/puzzle game in which you "reloot" African artifacts in a future-set world with the aim of returning them to the cultures they belong to. bit.ly/4afdL77

Random rant about a local courier service. They have bad service and prices due to mandates from their head office but when you rate their services badly it reflects onto the driver. Their driver is really good and a nice person so I cant complain because then its bad for him. Such a scam

People... are allowed to come up with mean names for inanimate objects. If you compare this practice to racial slurs, I'm going to think you believe people of other races hold the same concrete significance and value as inanimate objects. This is one of those slips that does not look good on anyone.

We've updated Dressmaker with a bunch of new things, like adding buttons and bows, viewing previously made dresses, more garments and fabrics and more! I'm making a push to get more downloads, because Free Lives is pointing at the "low" download count of 11k as not good enough to make the full game.

Art test I did recently. Went way overboard from what was expected because I was having fun with it.

Nyamakop has now had multiple museums reach out now to ask if we need more artifacts for Relooted, and if we'd like to 3D scan parts of their African collection. It was very much not on my bingo card that real life museums would be asking us to fictionally steal their artifacts lol

I was fortunate to work on an episode of the latest Love, Death + Robots anthology on Netflix. For He Can Creep. I got do one background for the show and some cloud design for another. Also did some concept art of the visual treatments for the Shadow cats + the linework / etching style of the show.
