I slept on making the Artstation post, but I finally got around to it. This is Viktor, a character design I worked on for most of last year. I highly recommend checking out the link for many more pics!

Ihr Computer läuft auf Microsoft? Es gibt eine unabhängige Alternative: Linux. Früher ein Fall für IT-Nerds. Doch Linux ist längst nicht mehr so sperrig, wie es mal war.
Sora 2 apparently cost something like $5 billion to run every year and so far made OpenAI around $1.4 million.
A render of a character from the back. Only a silhouette is visible.
A little teaser for my character project that is finally submitted and done! Full post very soon!
For now at least ...

Yes!
I think I attended a guest lecture of you like a year ago! Welcome to Bluesky!
Tumblr post by and-fishing-equipment reading "in 2026 DO NOT ask yourself whether your art is GOOD instead ask: - Is it SINCERE - is it CATHARTIC - was it FUN TO MAKE - is it MADE BY ME and don't forget to stay silly"
Now I don’t have that big of a tablet (mine is between a4 and a3) and I use a non-screen one, but I enjoy my time sculpting in Blender. I'm not a real pro sculptor, so no prolonged tests over weeks, but once the buttons are mapped well it's quite nice imo
A screenshot of the Blender asset browser with a few HDRIs and new screenshots of Suzanne in each of the lighting environments.
Cleaned up my HDRI Assets a little with the help of Suzanne and the not even that new function of screenshotting for the thumbnails! So good that it even remembers the area so you just press enter again and BOOM consistent thumbs everywhere!

close up of some scars across the brow of a character.
A scar coming up from the chin through the lips.
Sculpting skin details for baking later. I was filling the scars with some basic wrinkle alpha and just drawing over some of them again with a draw brush gives pretty decent results!

People love to say AI is democratizing art as if art wasn't something that children and cave men did for thousands of years. Who is getting a vote on art that didn't before? "I press a button and a robot poops out a movie" isn't what democracy means.
A render of a robotic hand made out of dark anodized titanium. The joints are visible and are made with bright untreated titanium screws. Small openings show the tendons that are running underneath, made out of a translucent orange rubber.
A close up render of artificial muscle structures on the thigh.
Close up render of the metallic ribs and the artificial muscles that make up the abdomen.
A render of the metallic spine structure and the ribs running out of it.
A few stills from my current project with work in progress materials. I'm so exited to show more soon!

It's SubD! I just went as hard as i could on the details and build it for use within Blender. But I guess with some work on some parts it could be optimized for that 😄
Fisheye POV onto the primary control display and the instrument cluster for the pilot.
View onto the PCD and instrument cluster of the WSO, along with its extra controls and systems.
View of the left instrument cluster and throttle lever.
Full view of the cockpit from up high, with the canopy open.
I finally finished another part of my biggest project to date! Here is the cockpit of a fictional variant of the F-35A. While I mostly stuck to the reference, I took some liberties in some details.

Still missing some bones names and mesh is not totally close, but I upload what it has so far to KoFi for free before keeping another year the Landing Gear Rig done with #Blender3D, hope is useful for some. ko-fi.com/s/2c38e8e38a

Just watched Flow on the big screen. I'm so touched, such a beautiful film! Goes to show what a small team can do with a vision! Anything is possible!
Der Animationsfilm "Flow" unterscheidet sich von allem, was es im Feld der aktuellen Animationskunst ansonsten so gibt. Nun hat der Film zu Recht einen Oscar gewonnen.
"Flow" won the Oscar for Best Animated Film ♡
Thank you so much for these examples! Especially when it comes to these mechanical rigs I need to see some of these in detail to understand what's going on!
I finally took the time to upload this with the rest of #blender rigs to my Kofi, get for free on ko-fi.com/s/2c38e8e38a
Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.
This would be my doom with some people.

While I'm running on full steam to get most of this plane done soon after sooo much time of neglect, here is some wireframe of the cockpit, where my current focus is. Wireframes to me look so ... satisfying?
