I’ve been on vacation at MomoCon 2016 this weekend

A few photos of my generic Assassin cosplay based off no particular Assassin’s Creed game. No, I did not make it (the costume is from a friend who bought it online from somewhere)

I had loads of fun and will resume weekly models starting Saturday!

Happy New Year: Goodbye 2015!

I spent the last half 2015 on mostly Splatoon and Undertale models. I can’t say I’ll do as large of groups again, but I certainly will aim for more variety next year! Practice, practice, practice makes good enough!

No resolution, but things I didn’t accomplish in 2015 year that are still important to me, no particular order:

Move out/get my own place

Get a full-time job in games/animation

Quite the airport day-job

Learn Z Brush/other 3D programs

Try dating

Don’t die

Welcome +11,000 followers!

This blog’s follower count tripled this year thanks to Splatoon and Undertale being incredibly popular! I’m really bad at celebrating milestones of any kind, but I will be gradually uploading models fans have asked over time, just be patient! If you just got here: I promise nothing but weekly low poly models. If you are leaving: Thanks for following and have a good journey wherever life takes you!

Hello, quiet fan here :) Curious, how/where did you learn to model?

Thank you! I love your work too, like the lowpoly Yooka-Layee models. :)And as for your question... I kinda learned how to model in college. I say kinda because my college didn’t really teach it that well, and overall was pretty rotten education that I wont get into on this post (but maybe in the future I’ll talk about it if someone is actually interested in hearing me rant and asks I guess) so I’m mostly taught via online places like YouTube and DigitalTutors, also with some help by a couple of friends from college to make up for the lack of education. We’d usually all mooch off each other for tricks.

I’ve watched a lot of timelapse videos on Youtube which has helped my sculpting ability tremendously. Like SupremeFunk and Steve James. There was also a video that is now removed from zBrush Workshop that changed how I looked at modeling forever. Also since mentioning that the video no longer exists, I think maybe I should create a video of my own detailing the processes.
