      Hey everyone, 

      Happy Monday to you and I trust the ☕️ is well. I am waking up to a winter day west of Chicago, it looks much warmer than 1F/-15C  with the sun beams coming through the window. Though I’ll trust my phone and remain indoors for a short bit.  🤓

      Over the weekend I was thinking a lot about our community here;  all the various projects, goals you’re here to complete and the connections we’re all making. It’s pretty dam awesome. When you joined CG Cookie you didn’t purchase a subscription, you adopted a community. That is real, and you all rock for making it so. 🤛

      Lately my role has been pulling me more towards the backend end of things; business processes, development roadmaps, and google spreadsheets. A far cry from my days as an Environment Artist at RoboModo or my time at Midway Games. 

      I’d love to see some art, creative projects or challenings you’re tackling this week for yourself.  Please link, upload what you’re working on and or share what you’re looking to accomplish by the end of it. 

      Similar to the internal HeartBeat requests the Cookie crew answers, what do you plan on working on this week? 

      Have a kick arse week!

            Hi, Wes!  This month I’m participating in SculptJanuary (here’s the collection on Sketchfab).  I’ve fallen behind, though, but even if I don’t finish, I’m happy I tried.  I’ll just try better next year!  It’s really illuminating on my habits, likes, dislikes, really has given me a better understanding of myself.  As for this week, I’ve had a weekly sprint for a few years now with things like watching CGCookie videos, modeling and drawing for an hour each, and working out.  I like to keep my score above 90 percent if I can, but I’d like to go higher.  It keeps me honest with myself.

            So, this week I’ll be sculpting like a madman!

              This month, I started studying anatomy and sculpting. For this week, I plan to finish my male sculpting. I’m going to sculpt a female after that. I’ll also follow along Modelling Realistic Characters course (I watched Starting Gesturally video and it helped me a bit even though I got past the gestural part :D)

              Here’s my progress so far

                Like @drgnclw , I am also finally getting around to Kent’s realistic character course, but I started with the female, and hope to finish up the male sculpt this evening:

                I am also making a video game with some friends (they do most of the dev, and I do the art).  I’ve been looking at shaders over the weekend and was able to write out a death effect for our enemy character this morning:

                  @procyonlotor That death effect is really really cool John! 😃💥

                    @smurfmier1985 Thanks! Simple as it is, I was pretty proud of it.  Unity’s shader code is a strange rabbit hole, and still largely unfamiliar to me.  Happy they are shifting to shader graph, but this project is using the standard rendering pipeline and I’m afraid to change it.

                      I purchased the “Body Mechanics Rigs by Joe Daniels – artofjoe.blogspot.com” about a year ago and finally have an idea for them. This week I’ve been re-rigging them to be compatible with Blender. Rigging is not a strong skill of mine, so the problem solving aspect of it has been fun for me. Next week…..I plan… and hopefully animate a bit.

                        I’m working on an archviz project right now, besides taking time to learn how to make apps for Blender and watching and practicing the videos here of course.

                            @phoenix4690 Looks like a fun set of characters to play with! Curious to see what you’ll do with them 😊

                              Working on a  project for a friend, namely “Evil Cereal Bowl”, and it’s coming along quite well I believe.

                              I also renewed my membership and will be now once again reattending streams and the like, and hopefully get to interact with you guys a lot more. I feel like I used to come on a lot and recently I’ve kinda drifted by the wayside and I hate it, so by renewing my membership with my limited funds it’ll make me get my money’s worth. Yeah with the music I was listening to this sounded way cooler, but oh well. I’m still loving all of your creations and am always keeping an eye on your updates, and I wish you all the best of luck!
