Working on a brand-new character from the same universe as Professor Artemix Frogs.

Still exploring the design.

The bong passed the first test 🐸🌿

Testing accessories and refining the model.

Testing a new PLA color 🐸

While this one is printing, I’m already sketching the next character from the same universe.

Pretty happy with this for a first attempt.

Less than a week and a half ago, I’d never printed anything. Now I’m holding a character that started as a sketch.

Already refining the model and testing accessories.

More to come.

[rocket.lewis @lewis_rocket]

My first fully printed character.

Watching something that started as a sketch slowly become a physical object is an incredibly exciting process.

I have a feeling this is only the beginning.

Bringing Professor Artemix Frogs into 3D.

Still a long way to go, but I’m enjoying the process so far.

[rocket.lewis @lewis_rocket]

Nobody knows exactly why Professor Artemix Frogs disappeared.

He never left an explanation.

But if you find a hidden garden somewhere deep in the fog, filled with bonsai trees and experimental plants, you might be getting close.

[rocket.lewis @lewis_rocket]

Professor Artemix Frogs has officially escaped the screen.

First physical prototype printed.

There’s still a lot to improve, but seeing a character leave the screen and become something you can actually hold never stops being exciting.

[rocket.lewis @lewis_rocket]

I’ve been experimenting with new workflows lately.

AI can definitely speed up parts of the process.

But I use it to support the work, not to define the vision.

Hard skills, taste, and experience still do most of the heavy lifting.

[rocket.lewis @lewis_rocket]

Got a haircut today at a barbershop where I painted this wall years ago.

Always nice to see old work still alive and well.

[rocket.lewis @lewis_rocket]

Time for new experiments.

Trying to bring some of my 2D characters into the physical world.

I sailed the sea of desolation
dropped my anchor there
plumbed the depths of isolation
wallked its length and was not scared
went from end to end to end
and from there I went again
the road that only this one knows
off to nowhere here I go

40 minutes of practice over a cup of tea this morning.

I’ve always liked drawing letters.

[rocket.lewis @lewis_rocket]

Just finished print for the local stunt community. I was enjoying the work.

Bikes + Creatures = absolute love❤️‍🔥
