I stumbled into a Chinese historic drama piece called Story of Yanxi Palace. I was mesmerised by how the art direction shaped the world. Rather than focusing on one protagonist, the aesthetics of the world weave a web of stories together.

You know that feeling of “ugh it’s no good” as you are making something, then you just gotta slap your brain out of it. Because tbh everything starts off as an ugly blob. #gameart #b3d

So... I made my first (tiny) game! In two quarantine months (after work)✌️ In Lucid Heist, you suffer from severe artist block, so you dive into dreams to steal inspirations. ✨Good artists copy, great artists steal ✨ Play here: RT appreciated 😳

From the behind the scene video, their art director explained that their visual target was the mellow Morandi-esque colour palette in the early Qing dynasty.

Through the narrative and cinematography, we have a tiny time capsule to showcase the history and craftsmanship through set and costume design. The art team said it's really hard to find craftsman who are still alive. Really cool to see behind the scene!

TIL birds like pigeons where eyes are positioned on the side of the skull has wider monocular vision (see more to the side and back) but owls with eyes forward (like us) have better binocular vision (to see depth). NATURE IS COOL #b3d #Eevee #wildchild

If teenage engineering did one of those two things, they won’t be what they are now - creatively free with their own point of view. Not a missed opportunity, when what they make is because of the design of the company. How people are organised shapes what they make 👀

Sometimes making 3d things make me so mad. Software should be better, but it's not. To make anything real time, you spend 90% of your time 😨setting up the tools, 😰updating the plugins, 😭importing/exporting assets (many times) w/ too many file formats It's not humane.

[3/4] It’s cool being solo as you can move faster. But when you make things with other creatives (programmers, vfx artists and etc), who push the idea so much further than what you can imagine, that feeling is quite otherworldly.
