Inktober Day 22 - Button Forever ago @danfessler.com showed a really snappy technique where he made an isometric drawing, dissected it, then projected it onto his model for a really easy texturing process. Finally gave it a proper go with a DS! #blender #b3d #3d #art #nintendo #animalcrossing

Gave redstone as a stick of crystalline chalk a try~ The only ones that felt okay-ish in game were the bottom right 3. The others I feel look fine but compared to other sprites feel like a bit too much of a deviation. #pixelart #minecraft

I'm not really a big anime guy but Dandadan has me absolutely blown away. So much so to the point where when they have perfectly acceptable shots/scenes that aren't doing any heavy visual storytelling, they wind up feeling dull due to the insane quality and quantity of their top tier visuals 🤯
