I've been playing a lot of Marathon lately👀 This initially started as an experiment with Quadspinner's Gaea over a year ago. But snowballed into a little homage to Marathon and its incredible art direction. #UnrealEngine5 #EnvironmentArt #marathon

Crazy to think it's been 2 years since #ConjureSDF released into Alpha! It's been a long road, with many more things on the way! The rewrite (v0.3.x) to support Blender 5.0+ has made great progress with a few releases behind us already. More soon👁️

I was gonna do a more elaborate something for pokemon day (ran out of time) but I think a whole pokedex of freaks could suffice instead repeats are fine btw I will draw 101 distinct versions of Muk if that's what happens. The Peoples Pokedex ✨ ko-fi.com/c/c83443daa8 ✦ #art #commission #pokemon

Prison of Husks is aiming for a more condensed scope than a traditional soulslike. That’s because we want to make the game world fun and detailed without spending 5 billion years on development. Thanks for supporting our team while we work on a project we’re so passionate about!

v0.3.7 for #ConjureSDF is out now! It's the first experimental release adding support for Blender 4.5-5.1 and MacOS! It's not yet at feature parity with v0.2.3, but we will get back to that in the next few months. Roadmap below! #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

Bounded rendering in #ConjureSDF v0.3, a free update to support Blender 4.5+ Full release later this month. Speeds up rendering by only caring about pixels covered by the bounds of SDF groups. #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

Hard to believe that #ConjureSDF released exactly a year ago today! Never could I have expected the level of response that Conjure received. Thank you all so much🙏💚 Here's a look back at all the progress, and a slight look ahead👀 #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

Continuing on #ConjureSDF v0.3, a from the ground up rewrite for Blender 4.5+ Rendering SDFs at a lower resolution gives a proportionally larger increase in performance. for ex. at 75% resolution, performance can be up to 2x higher. #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

As part of the 4.3 upgrade for #ConjureSDF I've made a simple rendering engine to understand all the API changes. I've dubbed it #Manifold It's free, open source, for anyone to pick apart👀 Available on Github, link in the replies👇 #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

As part of the 4.3 upgrade for #ConjureSDF I'm working on a simple triangle based rendering engine. I'm using this to get to grips with the new rendering API. And to validate potential macOS support👀 #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

All the new primitives coming to #ConjureSDF in v0.2.2 3 brand new shapes + 2 chamfered variants👀 Expect many more shapes with the blender 4.2+ update (v0.3.0) #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

Adding chamfered primitive variants for #ConjureSDF v0.2.2 Somehow it's been over a year (!?) since I last added more primitives. But expect more shapes soon👀 #blender3d #b3d #blender #3dart #3dmodeling

Cause it's #blocktober Here are some really old custom maps I made for the NEOTOKYO° sourcemod back in 2016-'18 🧵1/2 None were very good to play, or ever finished😅. But it was incredibly fun to make random ideas in the Hammer editor.
