Is it #portfolioday ?
I’m a sculptor and engineer for toys. I sometimes design as well. I got laid off because of the tariffs :(
Here’s a few things I made. I’m looking for full time work if you have any leads!

Extremely happy with my haul from Retroworld Expo yesterday. I’ve been searching for High Seas Havoc in the wild for over two years!
Super great price on the Moonwalker.
Can’t wait to play some Gilgamech with the 6 button arcade stick!

For those who are curious, the crab uses a large background set up like a sprite with multiple "frames" and the position is adjusted to make him animate. This method allows for larger characters and more efficient sharing of tiles.

So I basically draw the art and then make unique tiles over it for the final file that is added to resources. Then I replace the stand-in tiles.
As you can see, I drew numbered tiles and kept each one unique so they wouldn’t be optimized out by rescomp.

Here are the 4 options. Would love to do more, but not a lot of spare time nowadays…

Pardon the crude nature of this draw-over. Did it quickly in Photoshop. I tried to imply a light source and wood grain.
Again, she is very cute and the evolution of her design is impressive 👏👏👏

Time to go, go, GOBOT!

A flash back to 2022 when I was drawing almost every night. It was fun, but I got burned out after a couple hundred drawing.

Oh, actually I drew the color variant! I was thinking of the bulldozer Gobot that’s about the same color.

Who else loves BIG bosses? They were usually too small on the 16 bit systems like the #SegaGenesis and #MegaDrive even though the system could handle them. The small cartridge memory was more to blame than anything.
I did this rough test to see what I could do with #SGDK for my game, #Gilgamech

#ZPF for the Sega Genesis just arrived. Can’t wait to play through it! The included art book is really interesting as well.

Last week was rough. This week is going even worse somehow. Next week I’ll be lucky if I’m not getting chased by a T-1000.

I have been picking up Spiral Zone stuff when I see it and finally have a decent bag of parts. Going to clean and organize them now.
Any suggestions for collector resources so I can see what goes to which figure?

Repost with a weird video game boss!
I’ll start with this robotic Venus de Milo that attacks your ship with flying robotic arms and an occasional shower of giant roses?? This is the good stuff 😂
From “Download 2” for the PC Engine CD. The game is weird all-around.

Did I order enough of the new Super7 Micronauts?
This was a top-tier dream project for me to sculpt. There will definitely be more photos coming…

Amazing work. I saw Shannon posting about his project and it’s great to see your efforts being realized.
I can only assume that this is what you both look like…

I've been experimenting with a collision tutorial by @spacebruce.bsky.social and while I did make some progress expanding on it, I have hit a wall and can't get everything working. I'm not a programmer so I can understand the underlying ideas, but the implementation is a bit beyond me for now #SGDK
