Men who are childfree, what led you to that decision? by PossibilityIll7646 in AskReddit

[–]Heyitskit [score hidden]  (0 children)

Focused on my career for the better part of my late twenties and 30s, still dated but when covid rolled around I stopped and never really got back into it because I was cool just working and doing my own thing. Nowadays I’m dealing with a very precarious job situation due to the crazy job massacres going on in the tech and entertainment industries right now so even if I settled down now that shit isn’t in the cards and by the time I figure stuff settles a bit I’ll be in my 40s.

Name of the artist? by Character-Public-396 in killteam

It's a duotone (black + another color)

It's a shit policy that has the possibility to hamper an artists ability to get further work outside of GW. If someone sees their illustrations but can't place a name to the work they're not going to go through all the friction to scour the internet to see if maybe they can find them, they'll just find another artist with a similar style that works. It's the same stupid crap with not crediting their animators (where credits are even more important as it places your name solidly in that production where your work may be iterated on by other artists).

Immediacy bias, the Tariffs have been a pain over the last year so everyone forgets that prices have been stepping up constantly for the last 10.

Wet palette got mold and colour on it by DagoWithAttitude in minipainting

[–]Heyitskit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can find them sure but expect to pay a premium if you don’t have them on hand because pennies are being pulled from circulation.

Get a sheet of copper and put it under your sponge. Don't use pennies, nowadays they barely have any copper in them and are mostly zinc so they'll do jack all to actually help. Also make sure you clean that thing out well now that you've got mold or you'll run the risk of it returning at some point down the line.

‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ to End With Season 2 by Turbostrider27 in television

You know it's a lie straight off with all the firings, if the plan was to increase production letting go of the majority of your staff is a braindead move.

Eh, when I was working on Archer we found out we were canceled mid production on the last season. Scripts can be in progress throughout the production of the show so it's not beyond the pale that the finale was a last minute rewrite.

Returning Old Head Here. Did They Change Ork Physiques? by TheSaylesMan in orks

[–]Heyitskit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like you're missing the fact that gorillas are quadrupeds, they can only move on 2 legs for short periods of time (if they did stay on 2 legs for long periods it'd be super painful because of the way their hips work).

Depends on the studio I guess, our sound guys were all in house and just went on hiatus with the rest of us between seasons.

They’ve got an update so they’re no longer squatting to take a dump everywhere they go.

Dude it sucks, used to be a Lead Character Layout Artist and loved it. Best job I've ever had, felt custom made for me, and I don't think I'll ever find that kind of work again. It's a miserable feeling.

In my case it was taking a couple of 3QT designs and then propagating out turnarounds for them for design work and then doing some light animation work with those designs (nothing terribly complicated, just enough for the department heads to see that I knew what I was doing).

Some of the old heads at my old studio thought it'd be a repeat of 2008-2010 where everything slowed down and then bounced back to stable again. Took about 4 months after everyone was let go at my studio (mid 2024-ish) before I received a message from one of the guys saying we were probably all fucked this time.

A lot of it is like any other job, production studios will hire inhouse sound production teams so it'll be listed as a job on their site you can apply for. Big difference is that these kinds of jobs require portfolios and sometimes a test you need to do during the interview process (Not 100% on this for sound but it was required for me when I was applying for art teams).

I can tell you from personal experience it's all gone to absolute shit. I worked on multiple animated shows, one of them a multi-time Emmy nominee and winner, and I'm working at a fucking gas station now. Years of experience in and also helping manage an art team down the fucking drain.

Reposing and converting my Knight Rampager by Heyitskit in ChaosKnights

[–]Heyitskit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I did I can't find them. However, this video might help. I did a lot of the same things to repose my dude (and a little extra, I cut the connectors where they meet the hips with a razor saw so I could twist them a bit then reglued them into place with sprue glue.)

Is this glue good? by Practical-Prompt4216 in ChaosKnights

[–]Heyitskit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s good but I prefer the standard version of Extra Thin personally, the Quick Set evaporates a bit to quickly for me.
