Antarctic Diorama

Trying a new kind of post: glb files that you can open in the windows 3d explorer thing. Zoom around the models and see one of the little mock up dioramas I sometimes do. 

Next post this week will be a bunch of the posters, fake magazine covers, and other ephemera for Arctic Eggs. 

We've been working ste...

Streamed

I streamed making this guy from base mesh to bulbous head on stream. I'm going to do more of these in the future. I want to do some patreon exclusive stuff too as well, so please let me know if there's any kind of stream stuff you'd be interested in like q&as and what not. 

I'm thinking I'll stream o...

Gif Roundup

Just another round up of gifs

Demons

A couple of icky Ettare demons. Super provisional janky animations. Though I should probably learn to love the jank in the same way I've come to love the jank in my modeling and texturing style. 

Arctic Eggs Level Planning

Sneak preview of a new level for the full release of Arctic Eggs. Planning an underwater nightclub/hookah bar. The waters around Adelie City pockmarked with circular 2024-01-17 06:10:26 +0000 UTC View Post

Happy New Year

I cannot believe it's already this late in January. Posting to remind myself to post properly this week. 

The end of 2023 was a good time for me creatively and I'm hoping to keep that streak going as long as I can. So expect more Arctic Eggs and more Ettare every month. 

I really want to thank all of you...

Credits

I feel compelled to share this bit of the Arctic Egg ending. Gorgeous music by Cameron Ginex . It's so exciting to see the little plane I made (the "Flamant Bouilli") flying over Adélie City....

Arctic Eggs Posters

I made a bunch of collages to use as posters, t-shirts, and ads in the Arctic Eggs world. A few of these can be spotted on the vending machines, but most ended up unused. Felt good pumping out bits of ephemera for a completely ephemeral world. 

Arctic Eggs Moodboards and images

Part one of a smattering of posts I'll make about the process of making all the little guys in Arctic Eggs. I was sick for most of it, and that gave me a weird, joyful tunnel vision. Wake up, cough until I feel sick, work on things, pass out, repeat. Losing track of days. 

Even though the process of making these wa...

Arctic Egg

Watermuseum's  game is now available!  Made for the BIGMODE Jam 2023. 

I'm extremely proud of how the models turned out.

Gamejam

Watermusuem invited me to make models for an upcoming gamejam. It's been joy making these little future antarcticans. 

I think I might start posting batches of screenshots as public posts on patreon, both because twitter's compression is satanic and also as a way to let this place be a bit of a living archive. ...

Demo Build 0.1.1

A new build thanks to the hard work of Abmarnie! Press f1 to summon Kulma, the fancy helmet'd man in the gif. At the moment he will hit stun you via constant t-posing, but soon you will have your revenge. 

A new build with a working enemy is in th...

Playable Island Walking Sim (Kinda)

Hey everybody, hope you're all doing well. I still plan on posting some nice behind the scenes stuff before the month is out, but here is something you guys might enjoy: a tiny, tiny, "playable" sneak peek. 

I put that word in quotes because really, this is just a chance to walk around the island I've been posting ...

Magic

@watermuseum_ on twitter's shader is going to allow for incredible offensive spell effects. 

This was just a test: the statue I made for the upcoming demo with a human skin texture thrown on and a stolen gore png from Cruelty Squad underneath. 

Making things with these kind of effects in mind should make...

Magic

Offensive spells are going to be incredible. 

Mini-Update

Thank you so much to new patrons. I have a couple of updates planned to make up for not maintaining that page like I should. I plan to post one of them by the end of the week.

I try to post Ettare related stuff on this twitter daily, so you can see that I'm chugging away. The combat demo was planned for the end of Septe...

Squig

Squid gif. Animations for a commission involving lots of sea life, animal and vegetable. It's nice practice for Ettare.

Video from @abmarnie (on twitter). Posting some videos here so you can see them without twitter image butchery. 

Harvest of collages

"Finishing" the collage I've been working on all morning. Actually making this guy in blender is going to be easy except for that fucking helmet. Pray for me. 

Collaging and Archeology

Lately I've been having fun making digital collages as a sort of photobash/concept art thing.

When I make models in Blender I'll sometimes refer to reference pictures for inspiration or to try and emulate some detail, but the r...

Spherical Remix

My friend @pinkosand on twitter took a scene I made and did wizardry to it with a program called Bryce. I love the result. 

Give @pinksoand a follow. 

Ettare Animations+Update

Hello to my patient, dear patrons. It's embarrassing updating the patreon so late in the month, but if you follow me on instagram or twitter you know I've been hard at work on Ettare and sharing a lot there. 

Still, I want to reward the people who are basically paying for this game to be made. I am not exaggerating...

Anatomy of the Inn Courtyard

I thought I'd explain the creation of a little scene I've been posting excessive screenshots of on twitter. Apologies if you're sick of seeing this shit but I'm still so taken with it all. 

First off we have the Inn. So far unnamed, but envisioned as the PC's first base of operations in Burku. A place to store some...
