I think this was the render that got me into the industry. The model is completely unoptimized and I had no idea how to texture.

I got a lot of positive feedback on my tutorial, so today I'm announcing a new tutorial is in the making, this was a small sample of what's to come. A smaller simple prop, so we can focus more on the textures. The textures here was a quick sample from my live stream. #3d

I miss this old project, one of my favorite models I've ever done. The Volk from Infinite Warfare. Just modeling this thing alone from in-game screenshots took me about a month to get it right. All Sub-d and zbrush for the high poly. #CallofDuty #fanart #3dsmax #Marmoset

@FrBulix Damn, people have copied my renders and textures pretty carefully but they at least acknowledged me in the post. Him not even acknowledging you is kinda messed up. In some cases it’s nice knowing that someone was inspired by your work. But this doesn’t feel like that.
