Hey ya'll!
I can say that now since I live in Texas. Just kidding, I'll never say "ya'll" again, promise. I thought I'd take this time to celebrate a few milestones. I didn't want to jinx it while it was going on, but I recently finished my first commission job since moving to Austin!! Rejoice! Had a really good experience with the client and have been told there will be future work from them so that's pretty solid.
I've also been getting in to 3D software recently. I started off playing with pre-built models and messing with their textures, but recently I've been watching basic training videos to learn about all the different capabilities. As I was learning how to actually sculpt and make my own models, I kept seeing Portal cubes in my head (fantastic game btw). I then came to realize that building them is good a beginners level test without getting too complex...and it's also surprisingly fun. Check out my MOC Cubes below! I'll probably make one or two more, then start playing with physics, then rigging, then actual animation (maybe make a MOC ATLAS bot?)
Speaking of commissions, I may open up for business on here as well...maybe. I'll make a post for it if I do.
