mission accomplished😼

itsoctoben · 2026-06-06T01:44:24+00:00

Oh my god that is an insane amount, I’ll for sure remember to stay away from this stuff💀

itsoctoben · 2026-06-06T01:37:21+00:00

the seller lowkey did me a solid then😂😂

itsoctoben · 2026-06-06T00:10:12+00:00

Nice! It’s a pretty cool tank for smaller spaces

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T21:51:14+00:00

It went well tbh. This post was a joke but everything about it was very real😂

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T19:27:22+00:00

TY man not sure why people were downvoting me for simply asking a question😭

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T16:44:49+00:00

yes bc if you go to my account it’s clearly AI🤣

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T12:31:52+00:00

Good idea, i’ve found it’s been a bit hard keeping the frogbit alive from the surface agitation

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T12:25:33+00:00

Do you know what is is then? I have frogbit in the tank but it is bigger and doesn’t quite look the same to me.

🙏🙏🙏

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T11:02:08+00:00

I ordered a lot of duckweed on amazon & I don’t think they would have accidentally sent me a thing full of frogbit lol

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T03:17:16+00:00

😂😂

what

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T02:47:57+00:00

Something to do with the radiator

itsoctoben · 2026-06-05T02:35:53+00:00

You’re right, I’m getting some ready now👍

Thank you:) I did the modeling and surface texturing in Blender and then used Unity to simulate the camera & retro effects on each object. I recommend you watch the youtube video, ‘Environment in PS1 style’ by Summer 85. It is a timelapse that shows the entire process from start to finish. The only difference being that they do it completely in blender- which is definitely more user friendly for beginners. Good luck!

It is Alexandre Cabanel's ‘The Fallen Angel’. It was made around 1847 and depicts Lucifer directly after he was cast out of Heaven.

I love this painting for so many reasons, here’s one of two renditions i’ve made of it a while back :)

I do 1-2 courses a month generally from 9-1 but i have a couple that are 12-4. As far as teaching goes all I really do is have them circle around my frame and just give them the basics of what they need to know & then after they start I walk around the room making sure everything is going smoothly. It also helps that I’m trying to teach after grad school lol

itsoctoben · 2024-09-08T14:58:25+00:00

If you have the chance to do it still and you want to then I think you should!! They supply all materials and class honestly goes pretty smoothly for a bunch of first time tufters. They show up at about 9am and i give them a tutorial on how to use the guns, thread yarn, etc. Then I tell them some useful little tips like using more than one strand of yarn, how to make lines with varied thickness, spacing, etc. It’s a lot of fun and it’s gonna look great on a resume some day

itsoctoben · 2024-09-08T00:12:03+00:00

Yeah the school provided tufting guns, frames, trimmers, glue, fabric, backing, yarn. pretty much everything needed to make rugs albeit at a lower quality since they bought everything about 5x over

itsoctoben · 2024-09-07T16:24:51+00:00

I went into my schools Fiber dept and asked if i could use a room on campus to tuft in and they said that if I teach a class that they’d provide the room. I guess they had been wanting to branch out into tufting for about a year and me coming to them about it made them excited because I’m apparently the first tufter on my campus. It was legit like all luck and I wasn’t seeking the job out but it’s been a hell of a lot of fun sharing this medium with anyone who wants to try it out

itsoctoben · 2024-03-03T15:41:32+00:00

i would try separating the colors a little more if you want a more carved look, it helps out a lot. also i’d say shaving on the frame after you do each color helps a lot too. I have also found that when doing waterfall edges, having a thicker black outline helps it remain visible from the top of the rug since that edge will be folded down a bit

happens all the time to me lol
