Hiya, I'm Jacky, a 3D Environment Artist based in Germany! I love stylized PBR, painterly textures and exploring tech art. 🌱

My immediate response to the headline was "Starting!", but then I read the article and realized we're definitely on the same page. Great piece!

I’m Starting To Worry This Industry Has No Respect For The People Who Work In It Once your stock options were fully vested, did you sell off all the shares in your humanity?

I wrote this column and I'll just say that the original headline was much meaner. The piece itself, though, is still very angry and very mean, I assure you.

If "AI" was as valuable as they say it is, they wouldn't be selling it to you. They'd be using it themselves in secret to make the next Minecraft, the next Avatar, the next Hello Kitty and then they'd sell that to you.

They're trying to sell you a sick goose, while pretending it lays golden eggs.

Some renders of the War Wolf Assault Beast I sculpted for the #trenchcrusade tabletop game. This was my first miniature, and an absolute blast to make. Lots of lessons learned about the construction needs for 3D printing/casting. And it's been an absolute honor seeing all the great paintjobs!

Finally getting around to some renders for these #trenchcrusade minis. Been loving seeing all the great paintings and conversions.

Been saying this since the possibility of a tv series was announced. If you want to capture a general audience you have to do that at the human level. Set your baseline for the universe, then you blow their minds by introducing the astartes.

Came across a sick concept by Miguel Iglesias and had to sculpt it! I liked how it was looking so I polished it up with some textures and rendered it in Toolbag.

πŸ’€ For those who know me well, you already know I always end up in charge of... the dead bodies.
So here are the unfortunate expeditioners of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Chroma-less souls, stacked, piled, or single meshed.

Hope you didn’t get your character stuck on them too often 😁

Well earned, and it deserves to sell more! Congratulations!

It's looking more and more likely that I'm going to be out of a job within the next few weeks, so if you're looking for a highly experienced and very technical character artist with a bunch of leadership experience, I'm your guy

The palm is not flat and forms an arch instead. You can observe this the best in finger surfaces – each of them faces a slightly different direction. #anatomy #3Dmodeling #characterdesign
