Tenkei⚡VFX Sketchbook

Long time no see, here’s my 2021 (wait what?) former sketchbook Artbeat.

Ehem, moving on.

Welcome to Tenkei!

I finally managed to learn from Rinban (my top VFX mentor from Korea) and I would like to log and share my progress while attending his classes. I’ll probably also share other beats from the courses that I’ve been hoarding during all this years.

The cool thing about working on personal projects is that nobody is going to stop you if you want to try 10K emissive value at some point for fun.

Started today on the hit VFX. Didn’t have much time but being able to reuse stuff from other beats is great. I’m a big fan of reusability, templates and presets.

At some point I’ll need to setup proper recording but for now I don’t want to spend time on exporting and assembling EXR.

I’m debating between continuing my 2DFX studies or learning Blender. Sometimes FX102 needs 100% of my brain power but I’m exhausted after work and I just want to learn something while chilling with my cat.

Now that I’m writing it out, I think I’ll go with 2DFX. Here’s one of those exercises that I did back in the early days. It took me ages (A G E S) to finish but I felt amazing once I finished it:

Feedback will always be really appreciated.
