Multi-disciplined, grumpy old artist based in the UK.
Mostly 3D concept art, but also taking far too long to work on a scifi artbook and making 3D print stuff. NO AI / NFT's!

I have a small target for next year, to hopefully start doing restomod bikes and purposely ratty bikes with decent components for commuters.
I'm also looking into using bike frames as a canvas for a set of unique paint jobs, more on that one later though! #mtb #art #airbrush

Erm....This "high gloss" clear is more satin than the actual satin varnish I have.....

For the 2nd time now, I've managed to buy cheap tools from Amazon that are actually really good!
1k clear also arrived, brushed a tiny test area on one of the cable guides and it hasn't reacted so after a quick wipe down I'll shoot a coat over the frame tonight. #mtb #art #airbrush

There's a family on the floor above us who have always been nice people, one of their kids is autistic and the dad spends loads of time with him.
Just heard the dude yelling & sobbing like mad because his wife has been cheating on him and just decided to kick him out right on top of Christmas ffs...

Oh, right... I made a starship kitbash library, and it's just sitting on my computer doing nothing, because I never think anyone will buy my products.

Had a conversation with an oldschool bodywork painter on Facebook who says that doing a 2k clearcoat with an airbrush is possible and might actually be more cost effective than using a paint gun or rattle can.
A deepdive is required I reckon.... #mtb #airbrush #paint

I see an issue come up frequently with Blender and other software to a lesser extent, that tutorials all belong to earlier versions and people can't follow them. I would like to offer that you're probably using tutorials wrong, and this is how you end up in tutorial hell.

I acquired all of the skills the school system told me to. I did it on my own, without anyone telling me. I know how to do all the things I'm supposed to and so much more. And yet the only good these skills offer is enslavement to shitheads who are horny for war and more profits.

So I'm looking up vids on how to get my laptop apart to clean inside, as it's been getting steadily hotter over the last few weeks and even had a couple of thermal shutdowns mid game!
I just now noticed the laptop has been pushed fully back onto the wood box i use to put the TV on, which has been -

How is it that I can buy a full colour photo quality printer with combined scanner for £50, but a tiny A4 sized vinyl cutter cost £100+??

All weekend long (and probably past) I'm taking all sorts of small jobs. I make bright and colorful graphics for you or your loved ones. I answer tech support problems. I find you tutorials. I'm quite sharp with Blender & Godot. $10 for most anything? I don't care. Any price. Try me.

Always have a little chuckle whenever the Blender tag reposts someone talking about their food mixer!

Would it be wild overkill for me to buy an old grow tent and an extractor fan to use as a temporary spray booth?
Just saw one for sale that is just big enough to hang a frame inside and be able to stand up and move around inside it.... #mtb #art #airbrush
