Oh my god.. a classmate (to whom I will be forever indebted) alerted me to the Y axis rotation restriction button and it IMMEDIATELY solved like 70% of my anxiety with ZBrush.
You guys. I'm finally able to sculpt without needing blood pressure meds on standby. 😭

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy
I was prepared to disagree, but I see the vision. The only rational response to modern living is absurdism.

I'd been using the same pre-slop version of PShop since 2019, and I accidentally updated it. 😭 Please tell me I can roll back...
The custom shapes menu — look how they've massacred my boy..
Who signed off on getting rid of arrows and ornaments? In favor of BOATS??

Rounded out the corner on wk 6 at TTTC yesterday!
Final verdict on texturing in Mari: my condolences to film industry folks. My biggest sympathies to you all.
But hey, I got some texture maps out of the ordeal, and slapping them onto the jar in Maya made it look all purty. #3dart

I had accidentally put a mask inside a group at the beginning of the stream (red), but needed it at the end (green), with a bunch of nodes needing to be put between them.
I asked in the Mari discord and was told no, there is no ungrouping, just copy / paste. What. The bizarre workflows continue! 🫠

Who's solving the Louvre robbery? Right answers only.

Think Tank wk 2 done and all I have to show for it is this.. think tank.
Fun project overall, but the fact that we constructed the brain by pulling individual verts around with Soft Select? Jinkies. 😬 I think I've become a hard surface convert.
Slapping mats on this baby this week, stay tuned!

Look, I totally get the Jared Leto hate. But tbh the worst part of Tron: Ares is that it's made it all the more difficult to find search results for my beloved. 😔

Finished up my first week of Think Tank on Sunday! We jumped into Maya for some organic modeling - a tutorial elephant, and two other animals of our choosing.
Gotta say: pretty proud of the dog, but whew lad, that cow. Poor Bessie has so much non-planar geo, she's gonna be mooing in italics.

The frustration persists, but Mike Pav is quelling my ZBrush panic attacks. Managed plop out a soft serve cone, despite the menus-within-menus-within-menus workflow driving me quite literally insane.
