Whales are cool.

A couple renders of a hand from a client project I did last year. And yeah, ignore the double knuckles in the last render. #b3d #eevee #hands

As part of Digital Life, we are pleased to release our 3D model of Anolis garmani on Sketchfab - in collab w/Jonathan B. Losos & Nathalie Feiner. Johnson Martin created model from a CT scan, 3D photogrammetry scan of a Florida Museum subadult male specimen & photos - more details below!

Excited to finally release this model. CT scans processed in 3D Slicer and the rest modeled, textured, and animated in #b3d.

This #leatherback #hatchling is more than just a GIF! Researchers can use this 3D #turtle to test theories on body shape & movement without disrupting the life of a live animal. Read more about this technology bit.ly/modelGIF @digitallife3d UMass Amherst Florida Atlantic University

Having a coffee shop in the building in work in and another within walking distance from my apartment...has not been good for my caffeine levels.

2022 is already becoming an exciting year! Two businesses in the pipe (One for-profit, one non-profit), a couple paper co-authorships, and some great 3d animal content to be released.

I tend to do these renders really early to get a feel of the character. It helps me make better choices as to what areas I really need to focus on and which can be left simple.

New model release! Two female sea lions from 3D photogrammetry scans from Moss Landing Labs. Thx to Frank Fish, Jenifer Zeligs & Stefanie Skrovan. Johnson Martin did the models - links below!

Very excited to have helped on this!

Who else do I know that's also on Mastodon? I'm at: mastodon.social/@johnsonlm

As of today, the #leatherback #seaturtle model is available for non-commercial use! Thanks to our collaborators Upwell Turtles and Loggerhead Marinelife Center, and to Johnson Martin for doing a fantastic job reconstructing this model. Visit skfb.ly/oBwrJ!

Happy to announce release of a 3D adult female Leatherback sea turtle ("Mac" CCL=145.4 cm) in collab w/Upwell Turtles & Loggerhead Marinelife Center Johnson Martin reconstructed model from photos during a rare daytime nesting in Juno, FL. #openaccess Sketchfab UMass Amherst Digital Life

I use this almost every day. A great way to manage loop density.

In collab w/ Paolo Segre (Lead author), @GoldbogenLab & Johnson Martin, I'm excited to be part of this research ! Model details below! Digital Life UMass Amherst A three‐dimensional, dynamic blue whale model for research and scientific communication onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mm…

Hey everyone, my Twitter account was compromised a few days ago, resulting in some spam coming from my account. I'm back in now and there (luckily) seems to be minimal damage. Thanks everyone who checked in with me on other platforms to help!

Together w/@MorphoFun, & in collab with Smithsonian's Zoo & Smithsonian NMNH, at Digital Life, we are pleased to release our open-access 3D Japanese Giant Salamander (Andrias japonicus)! 🦎Full 3D model link and details on reconstruction below. UMass Amherst

In collab w/Marine Megafauna Foundation, Digital Life is pleased to release 3D whale shark - Individual TZ 209 (subadult male) filmed w/gopros off Mafia Island, Tanzania 11/22. Thx to Chris Rohner, Steph Venables & Jon Bayuk for supporting research! Model link below! UMass Amherst

Created a little setup in #b3d for quickly labeling objects with annotations. Took some trial and error with geometry nodes, but works quite well now!

Our penultimate shark in #3Dsharkrelaunch is the Spotted Gully Shark created in collab w/Save Our Seas - Thx to Clova Mabin, Jade Schultz & James Lea for supporting the research. Johnson Martin created models w/Josh Medina, Braedon Fedderson & Emma Hsiao - #FREE model link below!
