My new favorite AI bro argument…” you’re just a sheep in the herd who can’t think for themselves” they said as they asked ChatGPT how to tie their own shoe

Ctrl-S is my best friend ok… #art #3dart #artist #save

K so I’m thinking it may be time to start focusing a bit more here on Bluesky especially with all of the UK age verification stuff going on. It’s starting to creep into every social site and I already don’t trust meta

A new pin badge design. I’ll be selling these at @dinoconuk.bsky.social next month if anybody wants one…

Still working out how to grow on here so Hi Everyone! My Name is Matt, I run Cryptic visionary and I create and teach 3D art online here is some of my work over the past years hope you like it! #3dart #modeling #3d #art #artist #education #scifi #creatures

New Breakdown video is live on YouTube for how I textured the ODST Pistol! #3dart #texturing #art How I Textured this Halo 3 ODST Pistol | Full Substance Painter Breakdown Timelapse youtu.be/l0pFSek5xDA

Halo 3 ODST was an odd game being that it was supposed to just be a DLC, but man do I still love it. I wanted to rebuild the ODST Silence magnum Modeled in Maya, UVs were don in rizom_uv and the texturing was done with Substance Painter. And rendered in Arnold. #3dart #3d #Props #maya #modeling
