Just saw this on my one post, and I hope my response was as diplomatic as it could have been. Please do not go after this person on my behalf. I'm not interested in conflict in my community, just mutual understanding. Oh, and Sons of Centauri will feature LGBTQ+ characters. 😊
I love this game series SO much. Someone in a Discord server I'm a part of shared this behind-the-scenes look at it from when it was being developed, and I had never seen it before. For the sake of preservation, I'm sharing it here too. #ColonyWars #Playstation #PSX #PS1
Screenshots from Sons of Centauri! I shared these on my YT channel and figured I should drop them here too. None of these are finalized but they are quite a close representation of how the final short film will look. Hope these get everyone as pumped as I am to see the final product!
Though I have yet to play the game, I have to give the Helldivers devs credit where it's due. Memory creep is a huge problem in modern games, and I think more devs should follow suit in optimizing their games like this. Incredible.
Found this while replaying Halo Infinite's campaign. It even plays the Halo theme music in 8-bit!
My best memory of Halo 2 is beating the game with my dad. I remember very clearly, we had just kicked Tartarus's ass. We saw the Monitor discussing the Ark, which is where Halo 3 eventually took us to. We saw the Master Chief returning to Earth on a Forerunner ship. 🧵
Been experimenting with color spaces and color grading this week with Blender and Blackmagic Fusion, and I think this is one of the cleanest VFX shots I've ever made.
Trying to get my character to have eyes similar to what we might see in a SquareEnix cutscene. How'd I do? 😅
Did some dog sitting this weekend. Was nice to get away from my workspace for a while and just vibe.
Thought I looked okay today. I still struggle with my appearance.
DaVinci Resolve has a plugin that lets you convert video from SDR to HDR. Long story short, it means I can get more vibrant colors out of my shots moving forward. It's a really subtle thing, but I love it. Anything to make my shots look more vibrant and beautiful.
I just learned that Blender has an addon that lets you add IKEA furniture. So naturally I made a quick test scene with a blahaj.
I'm a little surprised I don't lean more towards Goth tbh 😅
Final version of the shot I teased a few days ago. Hope you all like it. This is easily one of the most beautiful shots I think I've ever done. 😊
Holy shit. I just found out I won the category of Best Music from the 2025 Trekzone Fan Film Awards. I don't even have words. Thank you, @trekzonemedia.bsky.social! I'm honored!
I haven't gone back to doing my Let's Play of The Outer Worlds since Convergence premiered a few weeks back. I think I owe you all an explanation. Have a tiny peek at our first animated short. This image is straight out of Blender and isn't representative of the final short...but it's damn close.
This may not look like much, and admittedly it's not a whole lot. But this is the first animation I've ever done with facial markerless motion capture. A bit of tweaking in iClone and Blender had to be done to resolve some of the jank, but the result was well worth it.
Forever grateful. #StarWars #KnightsOfTheOldRepublic #KOTOR #Convergence
Here's the poster I made for Star Wars KOTOR: Convergence! Our YouTube premiere date is set for next Saturday afternoon! I hope you'll join us for the premiere! #StarWars #KOTOR #Convergence #FanFilm
Trying to get a headshot of myself that looks at least semi-professional. 😅
