Dailies
Every day I make a new piece of art, text, or music, from start to finish, and publish it, no matter how good or bad it is. Improve at art, fight perfection, and do not take things seriously.

- Day 104: Lamp Low Poly Textured
Hand-painted the World of Warcraft low poly lamp that I modeled for daily Day 102: Simplified Lamp from World of Warcraft (the texture is just 128×128). The cut-off squares come from the texture alpha, the geometry is a simple cube. - Day 103: Chroma Paper House
An experiment with Blender and Topaz Studio. - Day 102: Simplified Lamp from World of Warcraft
I wanted to create a World of Warcraft lamp (a type of item for the “Off-Hand” slot) and I decided to make the geometry as simple as I could, where I set the details via the UV mapping and with texture alpha. I managed to accomplish that (the cut-off rectangles come from the texture, not… Continue reading Day 102: Simplified Lamp from World of Warcraft - Day 101: Paper Scroll Folded
Created with a single vertex, then extruded it around and added a Solidify modifier. A PS1 low poly paper scroll made in Blender. Process Update Baked AO and added on top of the texture (multiply), for better shape visibility. - Day 100: Shovel Low Poly Textured
100 days of dailies! To keep my promise of not taking things seriously and to keep fighting against perfection, the 100th daily is a simple low poly shovel! It’s actually yesterday’s daily and today I textured it. Process - Day 99: Shovel Low Poly
I kept seeing shovels in World of Warcraft, so I decided to model one. It will look better after I texture it in another daily. - Day 98: Human Bad Walk Animation
- Day 97: Pterodactyl Posed
Rig assigned to the mesh. - Day 96: Pterodactyl Rig
The most complex rig I’ve created so far. I haven’t parented it to the mesh nor weight painted the mesh yet because the rig itself took a long time for my limited Monday daily time. - Day 95: Pterodactyl Textured PS1 Style
Textured yesterday’s Petrodactyl, using alligators and iguanas’ photos. This was a lot of fun! A low poly dinosaur / Pterodactyl, PS1 style modeled, UV unwrapped and textured with Blender. Process Create a 1024×1024 texture with a collage of photos that will be the model’s texture. Create 2 UV Maps: the first one is the “main… Continue reading Day 95: Pterodactyl Textured PS1 Style - Day 94: Pterodactyl Low Poly
I was in Un’Goro crater in World of Warcraft, where I had to kill a few Pterodactyls and then got inspired to create one. I’m not satisfied with how the legs and arms look and also making the head was the hardest part, and I don’t like it either. Let’s see if tomorrow it will… Continue reading Day 94: Pterodactyl Low Poly - Day 93: Strong PS1 Low Poly Human
Did a full PS1 human, with split limbs, and also rigged it, from scratch. Process - Day 92: Failed Chest
- Day 91: Sweet Tooth
- Day 90: Video about my 3 Months of Dailies
Reached 3 months of Dailies! I produced and published a video about it, this time with some time-lapses that I recorded the past 30 days! - Day 89: Mix 02 – Bird Fish
- Day 88: Apron Potato Man Painted and Rigged
I textured and rigged yesterday’s daily, Day 87: Apron Potato Man. Process - Day 87: Apron Potato Man
Inspired by an “Apron Man Creature” from the artist moto583motohiro. - Day 86: Mix 01 – The Shy Merchant
- Day 85: #AMCArmy 3D Text
A typewriter effect with Blender. - Day 84: Ripped Vertex Column
Just a small experiment with “Rip Vertices” from Blender. - Day 83: Killdeer Bird Texture Painted
Used texture projection to paint a new texture for the Day 81 bird, and then repainted over the seams to try to have a better texture. Process - Day 82: Donut Straight UVs
A little challenge to myself: having a Blender donut with straight UVs. It was easier than I anticipated. Process - Day 81: Killdeer Bird
A low poly/PS1 model of a small bird. Process - Day 80: AMC Popcorn
Inspired by a cake I saw on Reddit: Popcorn 3D scan and texture: “Popcorn Flake” (https://skfb.ly/6UwV9) by Geksaedr is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). Process - Day 79: Metal Sculpture
Random abstract sculpture I put together in Blender. Process - Day 78: Manual Rigging (Again)
Exercise with manual rigging before going full Rigify. - Day 77: Rigify First Contact
- Day 76: Jar Creature 1 Rigged and Animated
Jar creature from yesterday rigged and animated. I have to learn how to make better IKs and how to make more natural animations. My animations play like animatronics. A PS1 Silent Hill-inspired creature made in Blender. Another animation: Process - Day 75: Jar Creature 1 Textured
I’m very satisfied with how this turned out. It’s the kind of weird creature that came out of a PS1 game, just like the way I like it. Very Silent Hill / Baroque like. Also, it’s the first time I textured with texture projection, and probably the first time I textured without leaving seams or… Continue reading Day 75: Jar Creature 1 Textured
