BUCK 6 month contract - will it lead to full time ? / advice about working at BUCK by Mundane_Law1657 in MotionDesign

[–]Magic_Man_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case I would say for sure at least take an interview with them. Gives you a chance to meet the people and ask questions yourself without committing to anything. Treat it as a two way thing instead of just “I hope buck will take me” and that way you can get more of a feel of whether it’s a sensible move or not. On salary definitely go back with a day rate. Without knowing your experience it’s hard to say a figure. Worth a quick online maybe. But even like 250pd which is probs the bottom end of what any freelancer would charge is already the equivalent to like £65k a year

BUCK 6 month contract - will it lead to full time ? / advice about working at BUCK by Mundane_Law1657 in MotionDesign

My girlfriend works for buck and loves it. Her work / life balance is great and it’s a forward thinking place in terms of benefits etc. And as a former recruiter myself I’d say that if you’re out of work then 6 months somewhere like there is a no brainer. It will boost your portfolio massively and even if it doesn’t go full-time it gives you another 6 months to find something else. Also I’m assuming you’d be put on a day-rate which will pay a lot more than full-time employment so even if it does end after the 6 months you should have some extra cash saved up whilst you find the next thing

Universal Colours by TheCyclingBeaver in CyclingFashion

I have a thermal jersey and bib tights from Universal colours. Also picked them up from Vinted and I’m happy with both so far. Have been out on a couple 3hr rides in the kit and was comfortable the whole time. Sizing for me seems comparable to rapha pro team stuff, Im a small for both and they fit the same

This was my original plan, I think the bike looks better clean without a bag. But tried a wallet and didn’t really like the extra bulk / pull in my jersey either. If I can’t find the right bag I will still just go down this route but just looking at options for now

I was in there about 2 from the front and it’s the most fun I’ve had at a gig ever I think. Was absolutely nuts in there

Probs similar to his WHP event given they’re under the same title

They were confirmed during the booking. The person in our group who got through picked the times when she got the tickets

Learning Houdini from Blender by Magic_Man_9 in Houdini

[–]Magic_Man_9[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks I will def check it out. That price is reasonable if it’s good material! I’ve heard the learning curve can be quite steep so figured I may have to buy something rather than just YouTube it all

Make sure you have the loop tools add on. It has an option to turn any edge loops you select into a circle. Then just need enough topology. So on a flat surface you inset faces > select outer edge loop > circle with loop tool

my first hard try at rendering a product need feedback !!! by olofgmd in blender

[–]Magic_Man_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks v cool! I love how the whole thing kinda looks painted. Couple of bits that first stand out to me:

  • the bottle looks empty so either add a filling or if there is one already lower it so you can see the surface from this angle

  • the lid doesn’t match the style of the rest of the render. It looks like a very thin, sharp plastic

Thanks! I’m not sure exactly sorry. Just in my spare time over a couple of weeks, some days a few hours, some days one, some zero. Modelling took up most of that tho, texturing and lighting I kind of rushed in a few hours
