Okay, don't get me wrong here. I LOVE Jurassic Park. I love seeing their dinosaurs. But after watching Prehistoric Planet, and going back to look at this...

And then looking at this...

Notice how much healthier the second set looks? Their lips cover their teeth, they actually have fat on their bodies, their skin doesn't wrinkle like they're dehydrated. You can't see every single tendon and muscle move because you aren't supposed to. Dinosaurs are animals, not reptilian body-builders.

THIS is the kind of change I want to see in how we create realistic depictions of not only dinosaurs, but all prehistoric creatures. Paleoart has always had a huge issue with shrink-wrapping and making these animals look terrifying instead of making them look like, well, animals.

Well done, BBC.

Me: damn this shell is either really strong or I’m really we—

garages sleeper agent in my head: the shell is what, do you say? And the body is?

fundamentaly embarrassing to show reference pictures to the hairdresser. Like yeah. Hey. Here's a picture of a guy who looks cool. One day I would liketo look cool as well. Can you try to make me look cool. With these paltry ingredients Can you try your very best to alchemize a guy who looks cool right now. In 30 minutes, can you make me into a person. Hey, for twenty five dollars, can you fuck my shit up forever? Could you give me a haircut. Is that too much to ask. Could you cut my hairs

BLASEBALL

[babaloga]

The Shore is now finished thanks to the addition of a proper background image from the fantastic @msfiddley (it turned out so good y'all)

The plan is to let it remain a self-contained piece, but tbh I am still rotating the concept in the back of my head so who knows.

(warning for people who experience tinnitus there is a medium-pitched ringing/whistling sound in this project)

The delta

[babaloga]

Distance fields!

Set up a process for generating distance fields from line drawings. Each non-transparent pixel is assigned a color representing its position, with the red channel storing the x coord and the green channel storing the y coord. Then each of the transparent pixels is filled in with the color corresponding to the closest solid pixel.

This way you can quickly find the closest point on the drawing to any particle simply by sampling the distance field texture at the particle's position.

Lil' concept scene that came to me in a slightly feverish state about 9 days ago. I was going to leave it at this but now I'm having ideas so who knows.

(People with tinnitus or anything triggered by ringing, be warned that there is ringing in this but it's not really high pitched so idk.)
