www.bfxr.net BFXR major update. I need to spend a *lot* more time with the presets of the instruments, but I was so immediately sold by the Mixfxr tool (that just overlaps two existing synths) that I had to put it live RIGHT AWAY. Try it out!

Factory Really happy with how this one came together! This started with me playing around with glass shaders and just organically grew from there, haha. I don't have much experience with 2D art, so I'm especially happy with how the window turned out! #blender3d #3dart #art #b3d

A 3D render of the interior of a very industrial-looking cathedral, made in Blender. Gears frame a large stained glass window of a white-haired woman with a teal halo. Light from the window shines on a shrine of gears in front of it; where a similar figure to the one depicted in the stained glass is sitting on a swing with her head lowered.

After attending the Determination Symphony last week, I wanted to make a render celebrating one of my all-time favourite games. Happy (almost) 11th, Undertale! #undertale #utdr #fanart #blender3d

A 3D claymation-style render of Frisk from Undertale sitting on a bridge above the water in Waterfall. They are holding their glowing red soul and looking at it. In the lower-half of the image there are scattered rocks and plants in the water. In the background there are large waterfalls. On the ceiling there are glowing stones meant to resemble stars.

I was incredibly lucky to catch the Undertale Determination Symphony last night - and wow, everyone involved knocked it out of the park!!! I was already getting emotional from the first note of Once Upon a Time... ! .·°՞(¯□¯)՞°·.

Hello! Back after a month away with a new render: a claymation-style recreation of Madotsuki's apartment balcony from Yume Nikki! #yumenikki #fanart #blender3d #3dart

A claymation-style render of Madotsuki's balcony from the game Yume Nikki. Madotsuki is leaning over the railing looking at the camera. Light escapes from inside the apartment onto the balcony. There is a bright sunset. We appear to be high in the clouds with no other buildings in the distance.

Green Deltarune the absolute GOAT whipping up a delicious high-protein breakfast for Orange! Made in Blender 5.2 and rendered in Cycles. #deltarune #deltarunechapter5 #fanart #blender3d

Claymation-style 3D render of Green and Orange from Deltarune Chapter 5 enjoying breakfast in the Flower Cafe. Orange is admiring a stack of pancakes. Green is frying a green egg in a pan on a portable stove while waving at the camera. Glowing flowered vines and the blue cafe windows glow in the magenta-lit kitchen.

Had an awesome time playing the new chapter of Deltarune and felt motivated to make a render of Aqua! #deltarune #b3d #fanart

A 3D render of the character Aqua from Deltarune. She is textured with a claymation-esque shader. She is standing on one leg and holding a glowing knife. The background is dark with a glowing neon purple grid and many glowing knives.

Quietly working on something for the past few months... Here's a little teaser of one of the backgrounds I finished the other night! #gamedev #indiedev #b3d

A 3D pre-rendered claymation-style background for a game. It is a spooky castle with chandeliers, chains, cages, candles, and banners scattered about. Fog covers the scene and a bright moon hangs in a green sky.

no joke I think this is like the number 2 most beneficial thing an indie developer can do (after learning how to make a game lol) because I don’t think this is a universal thought process and becoming a more well rounded person is free
