Behind the scenes of this fun little personal project I've been working on in Blender.🎨

Been getting the hang of Blender since I started learning the how to's of Product 3D Modeling & Animation around a month & a half ago and have been working on learning the nitty gritty details when it comes to photorealistic work.

Decided to render these test samples as a way for me to get a closer look on what else I can improve, but also to document my freelance journey in this new field I want to specialize in.🙏

I dedicate this new chapter of my life for you...
My little baby, my sweet little child.
You were the only one I had, the one thing I couldn't afford to lose, but now you're gone... unfortunately, way too soon.

There's a lot more that I want to say here, but I fear that there are not enough words to describe how much I love and care for you before I reach the platform's word limit, but don't worry, I've written about you and am still writing about you a lot in my journal since you've passed. However, at the very least, I'd like to write a few extra words just for you here.

I've written so much about you these past few days. Thousands of thousands of words, but despite that...no amount of words could encapsulate how much I loved you.

For you, I've given up so many things.
For you, I've fought for so many things.

From the very bottom of my heart and soul, I still yearn for your existence. I still yearn to hear your meows. I still yearn to sleep right beside you every night and wake up with you beside or on top of my pillow...I miss you so much...but I understand deep down within that you're never coming back.

No amount of tears can ever bring you back.
No amount of my apologies can ever be heard.
No amount of regrets can ever change the past.

I've left all the other things that I've wanted to say to you in my journal, so I guess I'll end it with this:

I love you, Mallow.
Papa loves you, Mallow.
Papa loves you so much.
Papa will always love you.

____

In loving memory of my little baby, Mallow - the only one I have.

I love my baby.
My baby is dead.

Week 3 of learning 3D Design & Animation
Product Modeling
___

Finally reached the part of 3D that I'm most excited about -- Product Modeling🤩

Decided to go with this perfume to model for my first 3D product creation, LE LABO's Lavande 31.

(1st slide is my creation & last slide is the reference picture)

There were a bunch of things I still couldn't figure out while doing this, which is why the render doesn't exactly resemble the reference picture in the last slide haha, but I decided to post this one first then make changes in the next project since the goal of this one was just to understand how to model an existing object and how to make a perfume bottle.👐

Your dose of positivity of the day🫶☀️

I was 18 when I was clinically diagnosed with PTSD. The many months that then came after were one of the most difficult and pivotal moments of my life.

I’m providing this context because I know that this is going to hit home for someone out there. Everyone has a story. This is mine. So, I’m writing this in hopes that this can change someone’s life.

I was suffering a lot one night when it became clear that I had two decisions at that moment: Either accept that my life was just going to be hell forever OR to try to survive, move forward, and rise above my circumstances.

I wanted to survive. Despite how tired I was of having to relive hell every single day. I was even more tired of having to feel like I was being chained around the neck by this “sickness” of mine as well of my circumstances.

I was extremely tired and angry at myself for feeling like I had no power against myself. So, I desperately wanted to get out.

I desperately wanted to become someone different. Someone not held by my circumstances.

And so I did…

After feeling like a failure over and over and over again.

Then suddenly, before I even realized it, I’ve reached heights far beyond what I had previously thought I could achieve.

_________

That was the beginning of it all.

Having since turned 21 just a month ago, I’ve been moving forward on an entirely different direction to where I was headed a few years back.

Paving my own path. Fulfilling a vision. Crafting my story.

Dropped out of university a few months back to help others build lives they can be proud of while at the same time fulfilling my own personal vision and plans.

There’s a price to pay for everything, and I knew that very well the moment I decided to walk my own path.

But I knew as well—with full conviction and belief in myself and what I have to do— that if this is the price I have to pay to achieve what I have to achieve, then I’m willing to pay the price over and over again.

Final Words:
You too can pave your own path. You too can craft your own story. I believe in you.

And as I document my journey, I hope I can take you along with me on this whole thing together. Lots of love.🤍✊️

Week 2~ of learning 3D Design & Animation using Blender ___ I wasn't sure if this project was actually going to render since I had no clue whether or not my pc could handle this, but luckily, it went through! Originally, this was supposed to take 19hrs~ to render, but thankfully, it took less than that. The goal of this project was to learn and get comfortable with Blender's UI and get a headstart in learning the things I need to know since I've recently shifted the trajectory of my freelance career away from video editing in order to focus on 3D Design & Animation. ...but also, I just wanted to see how much my pc could actually handle before Blender decides to crash or before I run out of host shared memory (VRAM + RAM??), since in my very first project (a donut stack on kitchen countertop), there were multiple occasions where so many things went wrong and I wasn't able to render the project at all since the whole app would either crash or ran out of memory.😂 There were a bunch of objects in the scene that I really wanted to add lots of textures to and I wanted to also make more tweaks, but I decided to save that for the next project, since this one was mainly about understanding what complexity of animations my pc could handle. Had lots of fun with this one! On to the next!✊️ ___ Project Details & Specs: 1. Render Engine: Cycles (OptiX enabled) 2. Render Samples: 256 3. Resolution: 1080x1920 4. Frames: 481 (16 second animation) 5. Graphics Card: Gigabyte GTX 1660 SUPER 6. CPU: Intel i5-12400F 7. RAM: 16GB

Playing with 3D modeling & animation for the first time🙈 Decided to model a scandinavian-inspired hallway I found on Pinterest for my first 3D work🙏 ___ Made in Blender

Ever since I arrived in the Philippines back in May 2022 and have lived here since then, SIBS Coffee Co has been my go-to for specialty coffee beans because I’ve genuinely been enjoying their selection, but most importantly it was also affordable. So, to show my love for them, here's a fun little commercial – planned & filmed all at the comfort of my home. Enjoy:) ____ This video is not endorsed by Sibs Coffee Roasters, and is simply a fan-made commercial.

Channeling inner creativity by trying out something new.🖌🎨 ___ Podcast Episode by Chris Williamson (Modern Wisdom Podcast) with guest Alex Hormozi.

I think we can all agree that this is a phrase that we don't hear often, from ourselves and others... "You're not worthless," Just three words, yet they weigh so much. I know that there are times when it can be difficult to feel like we're not worthless because a lot of things happened that could have led us to feel that way. There are times when you may feel invisible, times when you won't feel special, and times when you feel like the world would be better without you... but it won't. Because the thing is, you have a place in this world, and no one else can replace you for that. You're not worthless. You're not just a "kid." You're just a student. You're not a "nobody." You're special. And you have something to bring into this world that no one else can bring. 🤍

How you could potentially make an impact on someone else's life.

If You Could Revisit Your Past, What Would You Do?

Our lives aren't perfect, there are many things that we could only wish we could change. And as painful as it may be, there will always be things outside of our control, and that's okay. Because even if that's still the case, we can still do our best and go beyond with the things that we have control on.
