I put my Alexander in a larger pot.
That is all.

I posting infrequently.

Partly because this medium rewards behavior I'd rather not participate in.

Reacting to every trend, focusing on a narrow set of topics, generating "content" instead of conversations, converting myself into a brand.

And bsky is 1000% times better than the other sites

I love a good bit of tape in the mix

"What did Jack Do?" is currently my favorite thing.

A cute cat who likely lives next door to Keys Lounge

I love a cat in a public space.
This one was at Keys Lounge this week.
I thought it was a fixture of the place.
Turns out it just sneaks in and gets cozy with the customers.

A bartender carried it out.

Later we saw it trying to get back in.

I am lightly searching for work : )

I finished up on Big Hops at the end of November and planned to take all of December to work full time on Order Automatica.

I'll probably make a more thorough post later, but if you have need for a programmer/designer I'd be happy to talk!

Kidnapping people is bad, mmmkay.

I wonder... If I didn't have two partners that I share my every thought with... Would I post my every thought on social media?

My little dude hanging out in a high place

While researching historical homes, I've come across so many instances of people striping places down to the studs. Then replacing beautifully unique accents with boring, white, meaningless, textureless, heartless drywall and primer.

I am sad

Good God.
I doodle ideas every day and they frequently look like garbage.
But without using the pen to get it out, I can't process the ideas.

Trans people deserve the lives they want to live.

That is all.

I learned a new thing that will save me MANY hours.
That is all.

(PS to self: It was creating collision meshes in Blender)

So proud to have been a part of the amazing team for this game. Excellent trailer, I can’t wait to see where the game goes from here!

I spent all day building tools for art pipeline automation.

It was worth every minute.

I have accepted that my BlueSky posts are for my own records.
With that in mind... I might post here a bit more often

I have a cold and I'm at the beach. So naturally, I'm creating modeling automation processes.

Here I've automated populating vertex colors on 10,000+ cubes.

I party hard.

I feel very smart today.

After developing artistic skills/processes building one area of a game project, I decided to continue focusing on those skills while they're hot.
Thus ingraining them more fully and helping me feel more confident as I tackle all the tasks that need these skills.

My partner (in a slightly manic ADHD state) just left the room singing "meds meds meds meds" as if it were "shots shots shots shots".

Maaan. My list is going to be kinda sad this year. I've be slacking.

I found this gem in old family photos.
A felted wool cowboy boot "Stocking" with Santa's sleigh pulled by roadrunners.

Pretty sure mom made this when we moved to New Mexico circa 1980.

#throwback #retro

Played the game "Aspens" with my partner earlier today.
Really good pacing and real easy to learn.

In about 25 minutes we covered the board with trees.

Always Be
Using references for your art because holy cow does it turn out better that way and why do I constantly think I can just make this shit up myself without looking at the world around me, geeeez.

People need therapy.

Like... All of them

I had a very productive design meeting at lunch.

That is all.
