  1. Another fun demo animation from the archive. I was indeed "working on the railroad all day long"...

    Of course, this is the exterior set for the "Train" sequence. It is mostly seen in reflection in the actual scene. We see very little of it directly.

    I had also done a big comparison test on how to handle the weeds on the embankment. My first attempt was with low-poly 3D modeled plants. But a manageable number and vertex count did not look good. So instead, these are a particle system with painted billboards for each plant. There's still lots of parallax from the movement, because there are many individual billboards at different distances.

    This became the model I used for vegetation for most of the episode.

    Sadly, I probably won't get much use of this technique on the Moon.

  4. Continuing to re-upload the old broken videos on our PeerTube.

    Here's a silly one for the late-night crowd.

    "Learning Curve"
    This is a collection of me attempting to animate Georgiana's newly-rigged face.

    You'll notice this is not the final version of the character model. She went through some more revisions after this.
