my favourite stupid detail about Persona 3: Reload is how every electrical appliance in the dorm has the EXACT amount of plugs and wires running along towards outlets or extending plug strips. you could follow a cable from anything it will logically lead to an outlet

this is the hardest 50/50 mixup of my life
screenshot of Persona 3 Reload.  showing the Enter Name screen, asking you to enter your first name and then last name. or is it last name and then full name?  I can never get these right.

Low poly gun animations! Been really fun to do some more Viewmodel practice, got some great feedback from amazing Animators as well.

i adore the "hand crafted" look on the models in South of Midnight. i was arguing with a friend whether they looked like indents and thumb prints or statues hand carved with a knife. either way, it's cool as fuck

he calls it "Expedition 33" because it's in english. she calls it "Clair Obscur" because it references an italian painting technique that examines contrasts between light and dark themes. i, a genius, call it "Clair Obscur" because it's only 3 syllables and i'm lazy

few experiences in gaming really match up to the feeling of playing a Souls game on launch week, coming up to a room, seeing hundreds of Bloodstrains all over the floor and going, "what the hell happened here?"

the hardest pill to swallow in Clair Obscur is that sometimes the only thing you can do is dodge.

This anim I made is another one of those "useless" ones. During that chase in Ori there was nothing in the background, so lightning-fast I made a cheap pass (the one above), we put it in the game and we saw that although it did't add anything at a gameplay level, it does add atmosphere.

i understand MTG needed to appeal to the speculative baseball card crowd in the 90s in cultivate an audience. i do. but it pains me to see how that's lead to people treating booster boxes as little more than an investment than a box of game pieces to be played & used

oh hell yeah. this game is schnasty
a close up screenshot of the glossary screen from the game Pentiment. a finger-shaped cursor is pointing to an underlined word on a dialogue box.  the cursor is leading out of the painted screen of the game to the pages of the tome where the words "The Rule of Saint Benedict of Nursia is a book of instructions for monks living together under the guidance of an abbot. Written in the 6th century, the Rule provides  the principles for living a monastic life." are scribbled on the margins of the page

Sometimes all breakfast needs to be is a plate of fire noodles and some eggs to make my day
A plate of spicy fire noodles pan fried in butter and milk. Garnished with chopped green onions and sesame seeds with a side of friend eggs seasoned in sea salt.

Simple, but i love it.

It's cool to be inspired by what we see in the movies, but we also have super interesting characters around us. So inspired by the atmosphere on the Mediterranean coast @laurasirvent.com and I created: The TETE Tribal tattoos, tanned body and protein shakes.

I did a test render on Revali with @tuxedopato.bsky.social's new celshading script. I need to mess with the settings to match it but this straight up makes the BotW/TotK/AoC celshading in maya possible. Fantastic script!! #aviananimator_animation #LegendofZelda

the older i get & the better i get at animation, the more i realize that saying of "those who can't do teach" is absolute horseshit. being able to teach well means you understand your craft so thoroughly you can relate it to another person who may perceive the world differently than you

My animation style tends to be exaggerated/fast/over the top/... so I struggle trying to create subtle moments... but I'm pretty happy with how Ku (Ori and the Will of the Wisps) feels in this little shot. [Sound ON]
