Recently learned that many Aboriginal tribes here in Australia knew that the earth was round because the sun was round, the moon was round, and every other planet they saw was round. So they figured… we must also be on a round planet. This has consumed my thoughts for days.

#Substance3D is now entirely free for students and teachers through Adobe. That includes access to Designer, Painter, Stager, Sampler with its upcoming photogrammetry update as well as Modeler! substance3d.adobe.com/education/

We've partnered with Adobe to make it easier to create high fidelity materials using Adobe Substance 3D! We all need a little flexibility, that includes more support for your custom workflows: devforum.roblox.com/t/create-high-…

Couldnt help slapping a tiling texture on the lava this mornin before breakfast. Should probably actually refine the model before doing these but hey, sometimes you want to skip the actual work. #Substance3DModeler about 2 hours ⏬

"It takes 3 years to render a movie" <- I mean, not really. On a typical render farm, rendering a full CG movie once can be done in days/weeks. The problem is actually making the stuff to render; THAT takes years, and iterating requires repeated renders. youtube.com/watch?v=GBLPXM…

If it's got a 3080, its worth saving 🤓 youtube.com/watch?v=jZA0-8…

Great usage of #Substance3DSampler aside of SideFX #houdini 👍

Did I just really do a keynote presentation for Adobe at Adobe MAX?! Today was a meaningful day as I’ve come full circle on 2 things with today’s event: I’ve been an Adobe user since I started digital art and I got to be up there to rep Adobe Substance 3D Modeler for our 1.0 release.

Following the launch of #Substance3DModeler, Substance Collection is at 50% for the first year, making it at only 25$ per month for all the apps + content! commerce.adobe.com/checkout/email…

The verified brand situation is getting out of control. Quick thread of twitter blue brands, and brands who might be pissed off at Elon right about now.

#OTD in 1970, the Oregon Highway Division consulted with the U.S. Navy and decided the best way to dispose of a whale carcass was to blow it up with a 1/2 ton of dynamite. The explosion caused blubber to rain down on spectators for over a 1/4 of a mile. The TV segment is classic.

My first tweet back in 2009: “I decided to jump on the twitter bandwagon. Not sure how long I’ll use it, but for now it looks like a reasonable time waster…”

Still working out my last tweet; but I was amazed how accurate my prediction of “a good time waster” turned out to be.

I’m finding my stride on other social sites. Parking this account.
