"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

It's actually all 3D! I did use a free scene from open3Dlabs but the lighting and composition is mine

Oh that’s sick (in the good way) 😄 it definitely looks like natural sunlight, that’s impressive.

For those interested:

  • cycles renderer
  • put a sun lamp or a big bright area lamp
  • put some blurs in compositing
  • tweak the exposure

how do you rig your character?

[–] RustyNova@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I rarely do it. I often use free mmd bases online. Then I rigify them using uunya's mmd append addon.

I do rig things using the weight paint mode, but it's rarer.

... And in that case the whole character is free to download as it comes from a game. Just did a birthday pic :3
