Kraken_GIF_Mini

Hello! I’m Andrew Chen (eaacon).

I’ve been lurking for a while and I began my transition from a 2D artist and hobbyist programmer to a VFX artist since graduating college. For the past few months I’ve been grinding at learning the craft, starting with Sirhaian’s Shuriken tutorials and studying Shannon Berke McSheehan’s amazing mini knowledge shares. After a ton of practice work (Some of which I may also post in the future), and a custom Blender addon later, I finally finished my portfolio/demo reel. I’m also looking for work!

Take a look! And thanks for your time.

Yes! Currently it’s functional with some caveats as I’m still working on it, you can take a look on my GitHub if you’re curious or want to try it, and you can message me if you have additional questions.

Otherwise, I should have a more stable version in the coming months.

I am curious :smiley:, can you give us link to your github?
