Another object for the Xa-Kol's office (still working on this project). This time, a miniature temple inside a 'sand globe'. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_utJXtH0Z-/?igshid=e6sqduxp3gz7

Modelling and texturing my original Garrus Vakarian model and the first of two outfits designed for him. Will be used in a special secret project soon... https://www.instagram.com/p/B_sFxcbndHc/?igshid=1j37n66rlvecf

Another item which appears in the room I'm modelling. Slowly but surely getting close to finishing what is needed to make this environment feel complex and lived-in. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Jbkm-nhaU/?igshid=1egdh2h3y0ram

Another rose practice because I have insomnia : / https://www.instagram.com/p/B_ARdwSHCv6/?igshid=aeljrso48pop

Still working on furniture and bits-and-bobs for my character's office. I am very inspired by art nouveau/maximalist design for this and other assets. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-4okClH6W-/?igshid=v6ivb3aal61c

Been a while, I'm working on a portfolio reel these days and this is one of many new works that will go into the reel. This model isn't finished yet, but it is a rebooted version of a character I designed several years ago. You can see my new sketch, the new version of her outfit and how it looks pre-render. https://www.instagram.com/p/B9h4q38nPYM/?igshid=pmud9dsnzqkv

Male nude reference drawing for the week. https://www.instagram.com/p/B7YVVx1H5CW/?igshid=yf13ucxcjuan

Another 3D print, this one of an original #zverse character from my books. This one is 12cm or so tall. Ready to paint! https://www.instagram.com/p/B7EzXAFnH7s/?igshid=scvmz7i1wldm

These are test prints from my new Ender 3 printer. As you can see, I had some quality issues (which I tried to salvage by painting the model 😂). Oh well, onward and upwards. Of course, since I'm printing with plastic there is no way to achieve the results from my original 3d model... https://www.instagram.com/p/B7BBlrineEF/?igshid=vedgfd32jd2r

This was my first time wool felting (as one can tell from all the stray fibres). Only stabbed myself a few times 😂 https://www.instagram.com/p/B6XDE9_npjj/?igshid=102gq7m4igi87
