Artist, Crafter, Creator

Video game artist for over a decade. I did Freshly Frosted and it was good.

The screenwriter of my fav star wars movie once tweeted that he liked the soundtrack to my game (full credit to @visager.bsky.social for being an incredible musician) and I never took a screenshot before the site exploded because I am a fool.

I'm probably a weirdo because I'm taking an intro interior design class, and each time they assign a documentary I'm like "no, please, just make me read a 20 page essay, pleeeeaaase ๐Ÿซ "

why do the Internet algorithms know everything about me except that I really don't wanna see mother's day ads?

mother's day is my birthday, lemme be motherless and childless in peace.

for real. I spent half a week setting up Perforce for UE5 with AWS on my solo project just so my sibling could try out some stuff.

okay so, only tangentially related, this reminded me of that the AMV that went the hardest I've ever seen is still a cut of Princess Tutu to Hal Om Mig Nu. Made me actually watch that anime

hahaha, tbh this is not the first time this has happened to me

I'm like "All my friends are game devs, I wanna diversify my friend group," so I go to a gym event and make a new friend. Turns out they're a game dev, haha.

I literally finished a craft project last night and already I've thought of another craft I haven't tried that I wanna give a go.

I want to make a wire flower lantern, but I want to make a huge one and put it above my living room area

The capybara plush is all done!

It was really fun drafting my own pattern for a stuffed animal, I've never done that before

Now the hard part is waiting for the recipient's bday so I can give it to them! I always want to give gifts as soon as they're ready, I get so excited. ๐Ÿ˜

Side view: perfect, front view... maybe a liiiiittle wide

for this week's random craft I'm making a plush capybara!

Left is the first prototype, right is the second. I'm pretty happy with the new shape, some minor tweaks and I can make it in the final fabric.

okay actually I think the problem was trying to use Firebase when my data is pretty relational so I gotta figure out an SQL solution

I've been using React for a week now and I've pretty much figured out all the frontend stuff I need to do

today I started trying to figure out database stuff and my brain is goop again

I have now done the setup for making a React app 10 separate times while trying to find a good tutorial so it's p much nbd anymore
I thought my HTML+CSS knowledge would've prepared me somewhat for figuring out how to make a React app, but doing so much setup in Command Prompt is making me miss the unbuild-an-fps setup of Unreal projects.
