Another horror themed #inktober piece.

@GabeLeonardArt I still prefer traditional but digital pays the bills.

@EricCanete Canete wins for classiest rebuke of the thread.

Since #DeleteFacebook and #meta is trending I’m gonna retweet this Zuckbot I made. I suck at Twitter but fuck it.

Playing with clay shaders by @jamajurabaev1 using octane in Blender. I really dig these. Great way to enhance a loose sculpt too.

@pshenk @iamboey Thankfully you were there to get it across the finish line! ...Mephisto runs all day, every day.

@pshenk @iamboey One of the more challenging aspects of these assets was the fact that we were essentially making 8 bit sprite animations, and there are particular hurdles to overcome when faced with that type of limitation.

@yetismack3d Thanks! Yes, the battle between the Cyclops and the Dragon was epic.

Ray Harryhausen - one of the GOATs inspired my imagination as a child, due to the re-release of the Seventh Voyage of Sinbad in the theaters. Mind blowing for a little kid. #inktober

Figure I might as well post my #inktober pieces over here on Twitter. Instagram algorithm seems busted. I’ve been focused on horror flicks for my themes this time. This is a study from Black Summer, my fav zombie series.

[Anthony S Rivero @PixelsSalty]

Combining my love of pen and ink, horror flicks, and #inktober2021 . I’ll probably only do a handful of pen and ink pieces but that’s ok - better one than none. #freddykrueger

Being able to look back on your career and have been part of a pop-culture moment so influential is truly fortunate. It doesn’t happen for everyone in this line of work. Not to mention, I actually wanted to play this game. That’s not always the case.

OG status acquired. 20 year old pencil sketch of the Druid Werewolf on vellum, scanned and colored. We gave the original sketch to a fan. I didn’t realize just how legendary this game would become. I’m very grateful to have worked on #Diablo2 and LoD.

@johniseifert @hicetnunc2000 Thank you!

Another page of notes from my #diablo2 development days. Scary was the objective. #diablo #d2 #gamedev #3Dartist #Blizzard #blizzardnorth

@pshenk That’s a pretty good recollection of how it went! Very little cognitive decline in your golden years, Phil.

Found an old sketchbook with some notes from my first month at Blizzard North. On the left, I listed software I needed (lol Kai’s powertools) and on the right were notes on the first monster I was tasked with. #diablo #diablo2 #Blizzard #3Dartist
