SKILL ISSUE IMAGINATION IS REAL REF BOARDS EXIST AND ERROR_CAT WAS MADE IN LESS TIME THAN IT TOOK TO PROMPT PLUS EVERYONE LOVES THEM
My mom’s family is generally quite short though. Like when her grandpa met my dad for the first time, he shook his head and was like “Hmm… too bad he’s so tall” 🤣🤣🤣
V similar here, dad is 6’3”(!), mom is 5’5”, I’m … (sad jurassic park music meme) 5’3.”. Where did all the height go
I also have this issue - like I’ve been doing this for 10 years now too and I can find opportunities (although it’s still difficult) … but I also do speaking/mentorship for young devs, and it’s hard to know how to advise them here
This was like 2016-2017 and I wonder about him and how that turned out sometimes, nice dude from what I remember
I kept telling him, “if this is something you enjoy you should share it with her, maybe she’ll want to know more!” But he still would only play when she was gone :(((
Yes!! I used to be on an amateur Overwatch team (lol) and our off tank player was an incredible (like a top 50 global ranked I think) DVA player. He was engaged and never told his fiancée he even played games bc it was too embarrassing (??!). I kept being like dude wtf
3d screenshot with wireframe of a sci-fi looking range finder. the bevels connecting the cylinders have clean topology from rebuilt bevels
same, from a side angle, showcasing the cylinder in the back transitioning into the body
under view showing the hand grip
trying to do little exercises each night. watched a really frustrating tutorial and discovered that there's always cleaner ways of doing things. when in doubt, redo it. a lot can be solved with bevels in the right order.
Don't know you but randomly saw this and donated a bit - I recently had a big health scare with my cat and it was so stressful, so I want to help people who are going through this!
omg
little creatures called Peridots wearing cute chunky scarves, concepted and 3D modeled by me
Also, I think it's helpful to understand textiles if you're going to make 3D versions of them! For example, here's a scarf I made for Peridot a while back - I handmade the knit texture so it'd look like an actual chunky knit scarf, not just like, someone's idea of a generic scarf
Collection of vintage brass animals, sitting in front of many books
Also, fig 2: my vintage brass animal collation. Armadillo is a new addition my partner spotted and I love him!!
*I think sewing and 3D modeling actually have ton in common vis a vis 2D (fabric or texture) -> 3D (garment or model), by way of UVing or sewing together!! These processes really inform each other
A short woman (me!) with pale olive-toned skin stands against a pretty tiled teal wall. I’m wearing blue linen trousers, a brown belt, and a white button-up shirt with unusual seam details.
#WhatAGameDevLooksLike can look like this! About to hit 10 years in the industry as a 3D artist; I also love to sew* (I made both things I’m wearing in this picture!) and collect antique/vintage treasures.
'If we love this work, we have to protect it:' Heart Machine workers secure voluntary union recognition
Also yes I have extremely long spindly fingers idk this is just how they are!!
The letter is I think a lowercase gothic “b” or “h”, but this letter corresponds with a specific year that you can look up. Every year since 1773-now gets its own letter in a different font! The “b” or “h” in this font means either 1876 or 1882, respectively. (Or if it’s a “q”, then 1890)
The lion is a “lion passant” meaning it’s high purity silver assessed by an assay office. There’s different lion designs depending on the date of manufacture but it’s always a lion.
The anchor is the mark of Birmingham assay office, so made in Birmingham
Antique silver ring with Carrie engraved on it
Close up of the ring
Stamps/marks on the inside of the ring
I got the coolest antique ring with my name engraved on it (!!!) and I love it so much. Learning about the stamps/hallmarks inside is so cool too
Not at my computer rn but replying to remind myself to make a rat soon! I love yours
I really considered it! but our household already has 2 heavy vintage desks, don’t need a third :(
Carving detail
More detailed pic of the carvings. Honestly so cool!!
Right!? It looks like something AI would try to do but fail at in terms of accuracy, due to not actually knowing how woodworking works
(This is at the white elephant sale in Oakland if anyone in the bay is interested. It’s $400 which is a lot but seemed reasonable for such a cool piece)
