Hey artists! Next Tuesday, Apr 14, is #PortfolioDay! I thought it would be fun to do a little knowledge sharing for the art community ☺️ What are your top tips for building a professional art portfolio? How do you approach it differently if it's digital or physical?

This Sunday I did some Linocut and Copper engraving workshop in #Strasbourg at the Poisson Baliste atelier. It was refreshing to do this again. I made a Mosshorn from #Hytale and a very gloomy landscape.

Whenever folks ask me about portfolios, I show them this video. In 52 seconds I can see what André is good at. I understand what he is good at. If I need to hire someone who understands game feel, and who can build that on their own, I will interview him. I know this in 52 seconds.

#hytaleNPCfacts, the Tetras bird is actually inspired from the « Grand Tetras des Vosges », a protected bird from my area of France. Considering how the real bird behaves, it was a great candidate to play with funny interactions… @hytale.bsky.social

from Slikey: We are already working on a patch for bugs. That will hit the pre-release patchline once we have a good chunk of fixes. We are working on auth issues. Please make sure your time is synced and also saw a report about Norwegian OS language causing issues. Thank you for all the reports <3

Key art from the game Hytale featuring two Ferans, a faction within the game. The Ferans are fox-like in appearance and wear animal-shaped skull masks. The Feran on the left is wielding some form of staff, whereas the Feran on the right is weilding a bone-like sword.

This Hytale custom map was built by @propzie.bsky.social and I during an internal mod jam a few years ago. We created some blocks, weather, prefabs - that we might soon share. Note that this video doesn't feature the lighting fixes we have been doing in the past few weeks. #Hytale
