Texture artists, I highly suggest checking out model artists for inspiration, they’ve been doing it longer in the physical space, and have good philosophies on texturing that correlates well into 3D.

Don’t let these kind of industry racists go unchecked/unchallenged, & don’t feel bad cause they ‘spiraled out’. This kind of mentality doesn’t just come over night. Clearly a racist. Mfs like this stay in the industry when we stay silent, appreciate everyone who has spoken out.

My Mexicans, latinx Chicago, don’t lose sight that the police that rounds us for deportation is the same org that brutalize our black brothers & sisters. We should never turn on each other. A race war is what they want so we can tear each other down, if we do that we all lose.
