As stated in the title, I will be crossposting all of my news posts from Newgrounds onto my LinkedIn page. This post will be used as a welcoming page for the first post on LinkedIn. If anybody coming from there is reading this, hello! I usually post works in progresses here in these blog posts, but check the art tab every now and then. There might be something cool!

This isn't really an announcement for people who have found my account from Newgrounds, as I won't be posting a link over to that site here. This is simply a post stating what my plans are. This obviously won't mean that I won't change any of my posting habits on here, it just means that I'll be posting something extra on another site.

In other news, no more sick, so more 3D! I'll do my best to catch up on lost time through my posts here! I've also started up progress again on my persona rig again. A good friend of mine suggested that I use Mixamo to rig my characters. I was a bit sceptical as first, since I didn't have a good impression of the site. But after using it, it seems to place bones and paint weights really well for an automatic tool! The only caveat is that I have to put some dummy geometry connecting the limbs together for it to work, but that's barely a problem. The next step is to find out how to get some nice controls on the bones. I've found an old script from before Mixamo got bought by Adobe that might work, but I haven't tested it yet and I need to download Python 2 for Maya to use. From what I could tell from the instruction guide, the script is fairly straightforward and won't need much fiddling around with.

That's all for this post! I hope to show some progress on stuff in the next post, and I welcome anyone who decides to check out this account via my LinkedIn!

Thank you and good-bye for today!
