@rexhausted
Artist, animator, pixels and programming- games focus, but I can make more or less anything! Looking for permanent position with cool people.
wonky practise doodles. School semester is winding up so I'm trying to stretch some muscles.
been pretty down on posting regular Content to the Feed. Who do I know here anymore. Who loves or even wants this. I guess I'd be drawing whether I share it or not- void, meet yell!
Sound off- who's around? I'm struggling with motivation to 'post' or 'make content'- which sucks because it means I draw and noone sees it. Who's still seeing this?
OK THIS IS GOING TO BE INSANE BUT- this is what I use if I have a desk, not curled up on the couch. I use too much pressure for anything with any give in it. And the hardcore ones all cost about the same as this anyway.
Carving little chess pieces. Trying to develop a process so I can knock out a whole set.
I noodled these studies before seeing the challenge, wonder if it's worth going back to this pose for a second swing. #TrueRefDT002
"I need to take more time outta my week to do studies." -Rex, every time he finally does some studies (Thanks for the ref, @trueref.bsky.social )
Weird seeing everyone's 2024 photo retrospectives. Maybe 3 photos of me exist from this last year, and I'm not in charge of them or it would be zero. I don't think we ever interrogated phone photo culture? One day in highschool everyone went unrecorded and the next day- kapow. (have some art)
Environments, quest objects, weapons, characters, dramatic moments, he can do it all and in a variety of styles and vibes. Not stressed or like, in danger emergency money, just feels like people are more comfortable asking for what they *really* want in specific if some dough changes hand.
DnD DM's and other roleplay organisers- I guess I'm opening PWYW commissions? I'm looking for more steady work (admin/software etc) and this is ideally to help fill the hours until that's sorted. Items, characters, locations! Drop me a DM or a dee skeet or whatever we call it here.
A lot of new followers I don't recognise from my time In The Bad Place- Hi! I'm Rex. I make art/animation/pixels, but I also program weird gadgets, gamedev and I've worked as a uni lecturer teaching programming and animation. Say hi! What're you all about?
I feel like I haven't actually spoken into twitter in so long I have no idea what good interactions look like on a social feed site. What can you do for me today, bsky? (I offer a token cheery pixelart animation in exchange)
Finally cutting ties with the other site, might be here a bit more? Also my tiktok is at www.tiktok.com/@rexhausted
I'm animating weird plants again, but I can't show a WIP here because still no video?
Far out. Posting these I'm realising I really just do not want to grind for social media clout/vie for my own friend's attention vs The Feed. Even the bare minimum to reunite with all my old twitter mutuals. Might just draw things and then show noone aha. Cut out the algorithm middle man.
In the unethical image-scraping universe we live in, I feel bad that I can't reference specific models-but my lifedrawing reference folder is a bad jumble from a dozen different sources- pinterest etc. Would work directly with models for an exhibition etc. but for studies it's maybe overkill?
hey rex maybe next time draw something from the last 40 years if you want people to like your work
nfi what this is worth, if anything. But it's somehow worse not to say anything at all.
4 year old train-doodles prototype for a gameboy palette vampire/hunter/human dating sim idea. Dunno, worth noodling together over a weekend? Would you play it?
told myself 'this year you'll thin out the seedlings to avoid having 50 chilli plants to look after' but uh I might already be too in love with these little guys
You may remember me from such hits as <iPad Lifedrawing> <Random Animations> <Unfinished Game Prototypes> and who could forget <Orphan Pixelart Assets>
