I was just seeing if I could find any evidence of one I made years ago, but no joy. Did find this related blockout though.

I’ve experienced this a lot, and for me it perfectly illustrates how they will drop artists as soon as the tech makes it viable for the required end result.

You can have it both ways: I’ve had clients make me toil for weeks trying to turn their AI pitch image into something better/more considered/production ready, etc, only to slowly realise they just want the AI image. Nothing compares to the dopamine hit they got when they instantly β€œcreated” it.

Ahh, that old chestnut, still does the job! I spent way too long in Alyx just idly waving bottles of beer in my face, cooing.

..the relatively new iPad version has a more modern simplified UI, and the desktop needs to follow suite IMHO. There's a lot of bloat from old versions in there, and to be honest you can do most stuff with a hand full of brushes and a few core features.

I've been using it over 20 years now, so I'm out of touch with beginner tutorials. Zbrush is a very strange beast, it needlessly reinvents the wheel and does things in a most peculiar way, I think artists who haven't used other 3d software fare better with it because of this...

Back in 22/23 I worked across a myriad of characters and props, both modelling and surfacing, the highlight of which would have been creating the Last Black Panther in ep 4
It's a sad reflection of the state of the industry that the animation company responsible for this folded before it even aired.

It's funny because it has this illusion of being the 'professional' social media platform, when it is, IMHO, one of the biggest shit holes on the internet. πŸ˜„

I’ve been very much enjoying Common Side Effects, thought I’d have a stab at a quick model of Marshall.

Yeah, more of this shit, like Pinterest isn’t already swamped with crappy AI images anyway. The race to the bottom continues.
