~ August Magick ~
Lammas kicks off August, and the energy of the entire month is bountiful, productive, and that of celebration. It's time to begin to reap the fruits of the magickal seeds you planted in Spring.

I made the Blender Donut™!
Alright, here's a new batch.
Moved some of the material shader stuff into the Geometry Nodes setup so the cookies have more interesting shapes and are less reliant on bump maps for larger details.
Also added a layer of fine detail to the bump maps and adjusted the texture to be less busy overall.
The only downside is that the face count has gone up ~3.5x to accommodate the extra geometry.
wanted to see how close I could get to a photorealistic chocolate chip cookie with procedural textures/geometry.
After a failed attempt a while ago, I'm trying again. I think it's pretty close, especially at a glance. Looks a little video game-y on closer inspection, though!
~ Luna ~
All of our celestial bodies have been named for Roman gods and goddesses, and Luna is the name for our moon and its personification. Forever locked in a dance with Terra (our home) and Sol (our star), Luna has long been associated with women’s fertility cycles, and some refer to menstruation as one’s “moon time.”

Here's a tic-tac-toe machine I made!
I didn't realize how similar it is to those tic-tac-toe boards they have at parks for kids until I was about 90% done with it.

Here's the final animation of what I'm calling "Chess Box".
Created in Blender 4.4, rendered with Cycles.
This thing is just about finished! But it's begging for some sound effects now.
Made a lot of progress on this one over the week!
Hoping to animate it soon!
I'm currently working on a fun archviz project and I needed some nice kid furniture, so I did a 3d model of Oramood's electrical fireplace for children.
It is always fun to push details on such simple models and to get the texturing right.

Liking how this is turning out.
Is there a single 3D artist out there who never crafted a chess set at least once?
@ngons Yeah, it is an absolutely fantastic update that opens so many doors.
Also Redux as a VST3 having these things built in and Midi Out makes it so much more powerful.
Yay!
Have been playing with it all day yesterday...
I initially made this to look like a sponge, but my son thought it looked like mac & cheese, so I just decided to lean into it.
PPE is the most important part of your gear. You should always remember that PPE is the last stop between you and disaster. If your PPE needs to kick in, it means that you have made a set of mistakes with you didn't oversee.
Make sure to use the correct PPE
It's better to be a bit over-dimensioned than under.
Regardless of the price, if a helmet that you used on a moving vehicle, had to protect your cabeza, it means that you have to thank the manufacturer that you survived and you have to throw that helmet away. It has done it's duty cycle. Never ever wear a helmet again after it has impacted the asphalt with your head in it.
