Getting close now, about 20 hours in. The most difficult portrait I have yet to render. I've lost count of how many times I completely resculpted his mouth and chin area, which are now almost there, but still need work. The skin will be smoothed out taking off the hard edges.

The Quad gun is an interesting story. @vfxsup64 started using photogrammetry and 3D tracking methods we developed at MastersFX in 2013 - measuring hundreds of model kit pieces and historic photos to verify - and built the core of the Falcon. He then eventually rebuilt the missing quad gun turret from that research digitally. It was later modeled by Jason Eaton, and installed on the actual Millenium Falcon! I told Andre at the time this was #VFXarchaeology. The name stuck.

Concept art by William Stout for Predator. Back when the film was still called Hunter. McTiernan wanted a look. Stout handed him a helmet pulled off a catfish skull. Bone. Barbels. Wrong in the best way. Didn’t make the movie. Winston built the one that did.

Incredibly hard tracking by the team at Digital Domain. One of the early touchstones of digital prosthetics.
Há 29 anos, Björk lançava o futuro. Feliz aniversário a um dos maiores feitos da história da música: Homogenic.

Wes Study had an imposing gaze!
The ending of The Last of The Mohicans is cinematic perfection. The song "Promontory" from the films score in this scene is a mainstay on my study music playlist.

En 1928, un veterano de la Gran Guerra quedó atrapado en una mina y despertó cinco siglos después en un mundo de rayos atómicos y mochilas voladoras. Así nació Buck Rogers, el personaje que fundó la ciencia ficción moderna. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

“Doctor Chandra, will I dream?”
when I was a kid this was science fiction. i've watched AI type for years, but hearing it and seeing what it made is a whole different level. i asked @claudeai opus 5.5 to introduce itself, however it wanted without any token usage restrictions and access to any api it wanted. it decided to write a song, make a video, visualize itself and give an interview behind the music. it also wrote this thread 🧵
