I've been working on a Time Shift Blur filter for Blender. AKA mistimed shutter, this happens when the camera's mechanical shutter is knocked slightly out of sync with the film advance mechanism. The filter and an accompanying tutorial are coming out soon. Stay tuned :) #b3d

Ghost. More testing of the new compositor nodes in #b3d 5.2

It is so cool to see how far #Godot has come. Also, I absolutely love release pages like this that actually hype you up for the new features. Getting #b3d vibes from the presentation, and I'm here for it.

Here is the cover art I did for a D&D adventure. It’s a political thriller, so I went for a mix of vintage propaganda and Art Deco styles to match the vibe. #dnd #dndart #krita
Cover art for the D&D adventure module "Koboldcracy" done in a vintage Art Deco political poster style. In the center foreground, the main protagonist Golda, a determined kobold in armor, delivers a passionate speech from a podium with a raised fist. Looming behind her in large circular frames are her adversaries: Ambrose, a flamboyant Tiefling with a charming yet smug smile, and Svala, a stern, muscular woman in a sharp white suit with face tattoos. Below, the silhouettes of a crowd hold up protest signs.

Rewatched How to Train Your Dragon after 10 years and I can’t get over how tight the pacing is. The film doesn't drag for a single second. A masterclass in storytelling.

Just watched @mkbhd.com latest video and honestly, it might be one of his best ever. It really puts into perspective how sci-fi our current tech actually feels. Love seeing the craft behind this new video and that it’s made in Blender! #b3d youtu.be/Jh9pFp1oM7E?...

Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears. Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.

I keep coming back to these tarot inspired mechs because I had so much fun designing them and thinking about the world they are from. I think I'm going to try and make a game about them. That way I can have my friends pilot their own make-believe-cool-robot assigned by fate.
