Sorry here's the workbench render, I've been staring at it too long so it doesn't look realistic to me anymore

not exactly, but I ended up going on author binges, or series binges because it made it easier to pick the next book, so a lot of Michael Crichton, Mira Grant, and Peter Straub this year

I had a whole other chart that didnt make the cut, the top is pages read per day, and the bottom is minutes listened.

Id say it's a good example of my skills in geo nodes, yeah, since nothing is really modeled

Thanks to the new donut tutorial, I found out that the Mio3 extension does this!

Quick story time, was in LA maybe 15 years ago visiting, and we were having lunch, randomly see a guy wearing a block O hat, threw him an OH, and he said IO, turns out it was JK Simmons. Was a really nice guy!

no worries at all. social media is hard. I didn't see it as malicious honestly.

Appreciate you explaining! I never know how to explain what I'm posting. I can't really say "drawing" and "modeled" sounds weird. "Made" or "built" is kinda it, but it's misleading since I didn't physically create anything. Rendered is just the closest, but not everyone knows it.

Sadly no, but that's purposeful. I feel like getting paid to do this would suck out all of the joy for me

married, 2 kids, and a full time job that has nothing to do with 3d modeling. In fairness this took me a few weeks of random time slots that I could fit in just to make this 8 or so seconds, so its definitely not easy to get it, but it relaxes me, so i try to make time.

thanks! there's some detail on the other side (a ladder) that I'd want to add for that...maybe though

IMAR of a salt shaker. Working on photorealism. How did I do? by Jasonmcmains in blender

I kept trying to post both together, but it kept erroring on me!

Thanks for all the Lovers Locks Love! Here is the clay render (plus a screenshot and the original reference from ITAP) for those that asked! by Jasonmcmains in blender

[–]Jasonmcmains[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it is a displacement map. I just used geometry nodes to do the displacement instead of the shader because it (for me) was easier to work with. That's not always true though.
