old eleven doodle but good eleven doodle

footage of me awkwardly fiddling UVs i'm realizing just how ingrained blender's key sequence to horizontally flip UVs (SX-1) is in my brain i haven't implemented type-in values yet so it does nothing LOL my blender instincts firing for this is a good sign! me work on weight painting tomorrow

this entire system is funny because it would've been SO much easier to make it in godot, but i chose not to because godot has ZERO 3D modeling capabilities. i wasn't confident enough to try adding it before (now i am) (btw scripting anything in blender is a nightmare) (bpy ate 2 years of my life)

when diseases communicate with us they remind us of our true nature: primordial oozing amoeba that became too large and swollen its own good, dragging around smaller enslaved and mutually suspicious colonies ("organs")... the slime creature longs for the wet wars in the bog... i am ill by the way

i love being able to explore the altered state of mind of fever. these chilly little zaps tickle me yet i'm so cozy and warm. this dense radiation of heat in my forehead. my brain's running so hot but it feels great. i love how i'm not sweating. makes me wish i could control thermoreception at will

imagine each idolshell has a personal mind codex that generates schemas and updates them whenever they come across a thing or concept... schemas be shared across shells so long as it's in general knowledge format (inspired by corru obviously, minimalist UI rocks for this kind of stuff)

idolshell with long tongue but her tongue is cool biosynthetic flatworm that is ruffled. neon. anchored in her mouth. she licks da reson crystals. worm enjoys da crystals so it tastes good. worm however dies often (must regenerate...) and the dust saliva shells have irritates it (keep mouth wet...)

wip. behold my sproingy wet tentacle 6 days since the previous wip whew. i blame getting sick and having to perform Technology (learning tricks, workflow improvement ideas + still feeling 2D -> 3D skeleton pains) won't be surprised if next robot takes half as much time like this one soon will

the effect is more obvious if i lock the view angle to only one direction

maladaptive silly habit that i must unlearn #12: i don't have to keep friends shallow or let go of every friend i've made every time a new life chapter happens. learned this from repeatedly changing schools and communities. 0 old friends to turn to when they now feel increasingly important. sucks!!

why must gut have its own nervous system. why does it have hundreds of millions of neurons that i can't use. why does it make me sad + scared for the whole day when i combine pinto beans with protein powder. hello???? aaaaahhhhhhh?????????.

another robot comm wip. this is a horse i made her legs slightly too long in this one but it looks silly so please enjoy horse form (still need to add various limbs) also this is entirely fake 3D it's just me committing crimes with godot's polygon2Ds

here's what i mean by the fake 3D part. literally just 6 Polygon2Ds stitched together with math to make something resembling a 3D orthographic projection. i don't feel like opening blender or wrestling with 3D viewports/depth buffers in godot to make this work and this way feels more fun and illegal

workflow improvements. figured out how to get godot to read aseprite files and bring em into the project + do atlas-generation with layer metadata (to reference layers by name and find their atlas location) the entire rig no longer completely breaks when new layers or frames are added... so joyous
