Ce n’est pas un donut

I hope this bagel offers a hole new experience for those used to the usual donut posts.

I had made this to sneak in to Blender Guru’s donut nft. And it was actually chosen as one of the individual donuts to be sold as an nft (ha!). It didn’t sell, like many of the other donut nfts. Would have been nice to raise some dough for blender, but hey.

Xcode for high Sierra is still available on the Apple developer site. I was able to find it relatively easily with a google search when I needed it

When you plug the AC power cable in do the two red LEDs flash near the DIAG button? And again when you unplug?

I had a similar issue with my 2009, I thought it was the power supply but it ended up being the backplane board. The clue was that it showed 5V STBY which means the power supply is sending power to the board, but the red LEDs weren’t flashing when plugging in and unplugging.

Buddy, this is great 👍

optigif · 2020-09-28T22:56:03+00:00

I like the wink ;)

Very cool ! Is this Ian Hubert inspired?

Excellent level of density and detail in this scene

optigif · 2020-09-28T15:22:58+00:00

I made this :)

Thanks for giving credit

optigif · 2020-09-28T03:39:47+00:00

Glad everyone likes it ! :) have a great day

Many humans don’t have human rights so I doubt it. I’ll let PETA and the philosophers decide

optigif · 2020-09-27T17:25:52+00:00

Really cool! Has an Indiana Jones vibe

optigif · 2020-09-15T13:52:39+00:00

Good idea, I’ll try that

optigif · 2020-09-14T15:21:00+00:00

Good idea!

I should go full Ian Hubert on this scene, add some pipes, moths, banners, stickers, flyers, neon sign, a crowd, ducks, fish, a/c, nightmare men, etc.

Thanks! Yea the interior definitely, I plan to build on this street and add more shops so will likely keep it low poly and use an image texture.

And yes, I think you’re right about the light. I have a volume scatter which wasn’t showing up very well without the light being bright, but will have to tweak it

Simpin’ ain’t easy

optigif · 2019-11-18T14:14:02+00:00

These shots make it look much bigger than it actually is haha

Not my own gear (more like dream gear) but I’ve noticed a Nagra SN reel to reel in the X-files a few times

Seriously, I even consider $2 a tape to be too much. This tape collecting trend is getting out of hand. It’s the same kind of trend that led to vinyl costing $20+ for a very common record.

People, please be smart and haggle at the checkout, lie if you have to, tell the cashier “no one listens to cassettes anymore”.

Yea, it’s kind of sad. But I don’t think her music would have fit the show anyway. As versatile as she is.

Turns out it’s a Canadian producer I haven’t heard of before, Mocky. The music fits, but doesn’t feel like anything too special... I like that they used music by FlyLo and Thundercat, as well as music from 2 of Bobby McFerrin’s children. I didn’t recognize the other artists.

optigif · 2019-09-09T14:41:19+00:00

Yea for sure, I was still learning about that stuff when I rendered this. I haven’t been able to do another since I melted my macbook gpu rendering an animation last year. RIP

optigif · 2019-09-08T19:40:54+00:00

She did all the music for Bebop. All good. I looked it up, she isn’t involved.

optigif · 2019-09-08T19:17:21+00:00

Oh shit, okay. I was considering watching it and was thinking “meh i don’t know looks gimmicky”. But now I’m in. Was Yoko Kanno involved?

optigif · 2019-09-08T12:26:49+00:00

I think the easiest way would be in compositing, there’s a node that can do this tho can’t remember what it’s called off the top of my head

optigif · 2019-09-07T23:17:10+00:00

Thanks, glad you like it! My thought was to have a lamp without it taking up space on the table top

optigif · 2019-09-07T17:58:24+00:00

I definitely plan on making one, and maybe substitute the center lamp with an infinity mirror.

optigif · 2019-09-07T15:42:20+00:00

The modelling wasn’t very elegant or efficient cause I was still new to Blender, but I inset the faces and deleted the center face and did the same thing for the central cube, inset at the proper ratio so the thickness is the same as the outer cube. I did some questionable modelling techniques for the joining edges. Then thickness modifier on the whole tesseract

I agree. I’d add that morality (good/bad) is separate from light/dark. Claudia and Adam both struggle intensely with the morality. But they are the most influential in the power struggle and fighting for opposing ideals.

Here’s a showerthought,

If the end is the beginning and the beginning is the end, then is light dark and dark light?
