In 2014, I modeled a range of Minions pencil tip toys for a supermarket campaign. It was a fun job, but very hectic, with tight deadlines. 😅 #toys #minions #animation #CharacterDesign #design #artwork #sculpture #3DArt #3DModeling #illustration #illustrator #cartoon #digital #art #artist #arts #arte #designer #GraphicDesign #NoAI #3D #3DRendering #CGI #Blender3D #B3D #blender #DigitalArt #OriginalArt #ArtLovers #MastoArt #FediArt #MastodonArt #CreativeToots #ArtistsOnMastodon

Yesterday I was searching if Blender can convert sculpt masks to vertex colors for texture masking. Couldn’t find it via Startpage, so I tried Bing. Its AI on top provided credible answers, all of which turned out to be total bullshit, referring to functions that don’t even exist. How can such crap be publicly offered? 😖 Then I rediscovered myself that you can simply add an Attribute in Blender, then paint on your model with shades of black and white, and use that for texture masking. #B3D #AI

If, like me, you love 1990s Web sites, back when the internet wasn't enshittified by Big Tech yet, have a look at Wiby, a Web 1.0 search engine. Click on "Surprise me…" for random discoveries, often personal Web pages about obscure niche subjects, but sometimes you find a hidden gem… https://wiby.org #web #internet #online #RetroComputing #RetroTech #VintageComputing #retro #history #computing #IT #1990s #tech #technology #vintage #nostalgia #digital
