Ice Cream Truck

There's an ice cream truck that routinely goes around my neighborhood, blaring its little song. "Hello. Doo di di doo do do do du du, du di du du di di di diiiiiiiii..." I have seen it park in places and have been relatively close to it. However, I've never seen ice cream truck guy sell any ice creams. Maybe they are a delivery service? OR MAYBE, ice cream truck guy invites children to come inside to eat ice creams that eventually turns the children into ice cream - if you haven't read Ito Junji's work, I recommend it.

First 3D Render!

My first 3D render! Mind you, it's from a very helpful tutorial by Blender Guru. I used the tutorial to learn many of the features and controls of the 3D software, Blender. Since I have been job hunting in Los Angeles, I learned that 3D software knowledge, modeling, lighting, rendering, are desired in almost all of the job listings that I've seen. Since my university didn't offer courses in 3D modeling or animation software, I decided to start from scratch and learn now that I have more free time. It was hard to get a grasp of the controls of Blender at first, but after spending some time playing around with it and following the tutorial, I feel comfortable with the basics. Blender Guru's tutorial did a great job explaining each step and why certain features are used. Though I know this render is basic, I'm excited to do more renders and learn more about 3D rendered art! You can download Blender on their website. Follow on Instagram @miracle...

It does all the calculation that I can't, keeps a record of all my conversations with my friends and distant family, and tells me when to get up in the morning on top of calling and texting! Its an amazing mini computer in my pocket. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 from 2014; and even though it's a trooper, I've been noticing it get slower over the years, sometimes freezing just to reboot or losing battery life so fast that it can't make it through half a day. Progress made on my smartphone before transferring to my PC. A few days ago, I started inking an environment piece (pictured above) with only a few layers. I took a break to stretch and came back to a laggy brush. I decided to transfer it to my PC so I could work faster. I've been working on and off my Samsung for digital artwork but since the screen is so small - though not small for a smartphone - and so is my patience for such things, I haven't real...
