Avatars and streams and junk!
Posted 4 years agoHi! Remember me? I'd gone back to lurking for the last... many years. But I've been missing the whole furry thing and vrchat has got me kinda diving back into that in a real way.
I've always fiddled with 3d stuff over the years, and now vrchat has really got me inspired to finally flesh out those skills for real. That combined with new VR based modelling tools and new blender skills, I'm wanting to dive into vrchat avatar stuff
Might be opening for commissions in that rralm soon, but before that, I think I want to start a sort of "avatar build speedrun" stream series, where I try to model, texture, rig, and setup an avatar in a single 3 hour stream or something like that, maybe once a week? It should be insane, and result in some delightfully cursed creations.
If that sort of things sounds fun to watch, let me know! I'll post a link here when I'm ready to start! (hopefully next week!)

Posted 7 years agoHey! I know I've been disappeared for years, but I still check in on you guys! I miss you all!
If you're at all curious about what I'm working on lately, I'm working on a sci-fi racing simulator i call Grav Wing.
I'm currently doing some streaming on twitch, implementing some input plugin stuff. Come in and say hi and ask questions!
Here's a little video kinda showing off a little bit of what the game is like (action starts about 20 seconds in)

Posted 8 years agoHey guys, long time no see!
I've been thinking about you all a lot lately. I really miss this community, but I've been so busy! So I've just been lurking.
HOWEVER
If you're curious what I've been busy with, well lately, I'm finally making a real serious go at independent video game development! I have a patreon up, and I'm streaming the entire development process of the game! If you're curious what I'm working on, please stop by and chat with me! If you think it's cool, please consider chipping in! It's super helpful, because eating is an important part of programming!

Socializing?
Posted 9 years agoMan. I've been out of this community for so long, and honestly I kinda miss it. I love the creativity and the imagination and the geekery. I get plenty of the latter around here personally but... it's hard to find people with whom I line up quite rightly, and honestly I've had most luck with that in this world.
But.. I don't really know how to get back into socializing with this community! I kinda got to know people by hanging out in IRC, but I'm not sure if that's a dead thing. Are there other places where people are generally just buzzing about?
The general format of social networking is frustrating in that you're only really ever exposed to people you already know. You form this bubble and, though it helps stay in touch with those people, it can also isolate you from the world a bit, which I'm finding is really starting to make me feel pretty lonely.
Anyway say hi! I'd love to hear from you

I'm learning to weld, and I want to make things. things ranging from about 1 foot high to like... full on 5 feet high garden sculpture stuff. I wanna make stuff!

I'm alive!
Posted 14 years agoI'm alive!
Several of you have inquired about commission stuff recently! I'm super sad to say that RIGHT AT THE MOMENT I don't have time, but I'm trying to get back to arting more so rather soon that might change!
I also should mention that I'm holding back some on the animated icons, just because they take me soooo long. Unless I come up with something simpler, I can't really charge less than 80-100 bucks for one. Of course, if cost isn't an issue, just let me know and I'm sure we can work something out :)
See you guys soon, hopefully!

Who do I know in Indiana or Ohio?
Posted 15 years agoNext week I'm driving to the east coast! It would be cool to make a stop somewhere around the halfway point to take a break, visit a friend, and maybe nod off for a few hours!
When thinking of who I knew in the area, I realized that there's probably a lot of people that I'm friends with and have no idea where they live!
I'm coming from Iowa and will be driving out either on i80 or i70/i74. Give me a holla if you're in one of the cities along those routes, and you'd like a visit! I'd probably be going through on the evening of the 28th or 29th.

If I were to go to MFF, anyone have spare room?
Posted 15 years agoI have a cot, I just need floor space! I'm nice, friendly, smoke and drama freeee! Also, I've been told I smell good.
AC was awesome, and so are you!
Posted 15 years agoOkay, finally conscious again post-AC.
A great con!
It was actually a little weird for me at first because I was sorta finding myself aimlessly wandering and/or looking for people to hang out with, because a big chunk of my normal AC crew wasn't there! I think this is an okay thing, though, because it's good to get out of old habits and stretch out to new people and make new connections. I didn't do the best at it this year, but next year I want to do better.
I decided not to do AA just because I've been so out of the art game for months and I think it would have just been stressful to jump right back in at the last second, just for the sake of money. Instead I just wanted to socialize as much as possible. I think I made the correct decision overall, but not entirely for the right reasons.
In a con where you're trying to meet new people and make new connections, I quickly realized that the best way is at an AA table! So many people stop by and will say hi that wouldn't necessarily make a point of it in passing at the con. Great way to meet internet acquaintances that haven't quite reached "friend" stage, and a great way to interact with other artists. Plus, you're in one place instead of wandering around, so it's easier to be found!
Anyway, next year I definitely want to step up the game with AA, if even just doing it for a half-day.
That said, everyone at the con was great! I want to give shoutouts but I'd be here all day and I have work to do!
ROLL FOR CHEESE!

Requesting music recommendations!
Posted 15 years agoHey guys!
I'm looking for music, in two forms!
a) bands/groups/individual composers/soloists, etc. Let me know who you like! I've been listening to so much electronic recently, I've got a craving for some more analog and acoustic sounds. Singing! Playing instruments! Interesting electronic stuff is still good to go, though. And orchestrial stuff!
b) Internet streams. I've been listening to di.fm/sky.fm a lot, and they're fantastic, but I'm beginning to find that their channels tend to be a little TOO specific. Even the "Mostly Classical" channel seems to focus on a particular /style/ almost of orchestrial music. Not a lot of dynamic range. I want dynamic range! Anyway, what, if any music streams do you listen to?

Posted 16 years agoOkay guys! I'm kicking this thing off, but bear with me, as I'm working out some technical difficulties.
My camera seems to have a loose connection in it somewhere and it's being picky. I know I don't really need the camera but I'd like to get it set up to where I have it available if need be. If I can get it working right in one spot so that I don't have to touch it, it should be okay!

Livestream update - slight delay
Posted 16 years agoHey dudes! A few things came up that I need to get done tonight, but I still want to kick off the livestream sessions regardless. For the time being I'm thinking it'll be closer to 7PM CST that I finally get broadcasting, but I'll make sure to let you know when. Sorry to spam your inbox!
Commission status: LIVESTREAM!
Posted 16 years agoOkay guys! Now, on the topic of moving on, many of you who've paid me for commissions (THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!) are probably wondering what the deal is with those?
Well, you guys are on the top of my priority list right now, and I'm thinking about cranking up the productivity with a bit of a commission work marathon of sorts!
So, what I'm going to be doing is thus: every night from tonight until thursday night I'm going to be cranking away on your commissions, and I'm going to be Livestreaming the whooooole thing!
I think I'll start right after I get some dinner, so, about 6PM CST? If I change that up, I'll send out another journal to let you know! Also, I'll be sending PMs to the people who's commissions I'm going to be working on, so they can stop in and watch progress!
you guys can tune in to my livestream channel at: http://tresch.tv/stream
Please stop by and help me stay on task! See you there!

Moving on with life
Posted 16 years agoSo, MAGfest is over. It was insane, amazing, awesome, and just makes me really proud to be a part of something that brings so many people together for such a good time.
For about a week after the event I was still on a buzz and cranking away on things like I had purpose! It was wonderful. Unfortunately, now I'm back in my home, working from my bedroom, and there's no insanity surrounding me but my own! This is a problem. I feed off of the crazyness of things like MAGfest and it gets me moving, but left to my own devices I stagnate and go idle and just stare at things all day.
To complicate things I have a hard time prioritizing things that I need to do for myself to help me work, and things that I need to work on. I'm still in a huge financial bind, and I need need NEED to be cranking at 150% CONSTANTLY in order to have any hopes of pulling myself out before something really bad happens. On the other hand, I don't focus well, and there are certain things that help, such as cleaning the house and going to the gym, but these things take time away from work time, and since I'm really behind on work, since I've been slacking, I feel like I should do some work first and come back to that later as a reward.
As a result of this conflict, I end up being torn in the middle and doing nothing.
Summary: Slack off -> think about doing things to help me focus on work -> worry that since I've been slacking I should just do some work first -> get indecisive and end up slacking off -> etc
I know that I should just take care of myself, first. It's only a few hours here and there, and there are so many more hours that are at stake if I don't get my brain under control. So, I'm going to go to the gym right now, then come home and clean up my room/office, and then get some work done.
I thrive in chaotic situations, but in absence of sufficient insanity I need to remember that I NEED some kind of consistent exertion in order to keep myself above water.
