Last year I really got into 3D art. One year later, and I feel as though I’ve come a long way. It’s like all the skills I’m learning in the indie publishing world, I feel like I take a colossal leap forward, and then slide back down the learning curve to start all over again. It’s pretty much the same when learning a language as an adult. I still have many plateaus with Danish, just when I feel like I’m getting the hang of yet another point of grammar, or pronunciation, I end up on a plateau with no real development.
I think it’s the brain digesting.
That’s what I think.
And it’s the same with my attempts at 3D art. Luui 2.0 (adult Luui from the Christmas stories) is the exact same model (albeit with different hair and wardrobe) I used for Luui 1.0, but with better lighting, and posing, a little bit of asymmetrical adjustments, and there’s that giant leap. It’s the lighting, mostly. Amazing what you can achieve with three spotlights!
Previously, I might have been tempted to go back and change the model on the old cover. But not this time. I like seeing the progression and look forward to working with Luui 3.0 sometime in the future.
Not right now though.
I really like the new Luui.

Luui 2.0 looks less plasticy and doll-like than Luui 1.0. 🙂
I totally agree!
Is that Halle Berry on the right?
Well… it’s not meant to be. 🙂
I know. I was just messin with you, Christopher!👊🤓 She’s cool anyway! I especially liked her in Extant! (and X-Men of course!).
No problem. Thought you might be. 🙂 Halle Berry in John Wick 3! 😉
I’ve only seen John Wick 1 and 2. But 3 looks good. I thought the first 2 were good but I hated the fate of the dog so much in 1 I don’t know if I could ever LOVE the movie series. But I will see 3 eventually! The only movies I enjoyed where dogs died were A Fish Called Wanda and There’s Something About Mary. And I don’t even hardly like comedies to begin with. 😐
Positive spoiler… don’t worry about the dogs in JW3. 😉
But for dog’s sake don’t read The Ice Star!
OK to both comments! I can handle all levels of fiction even Splatterpunk and some Extreme Horror but I don’t care for animals getting hurt whatsoever though it can almost never be totally avoided!
