Another VTuber project from earlier this year, this was a personal project where my goal was to learn applying realistic face tracking to a non human character.
This was a commissioned project of a Twilight Princess inspired 3D VTubing avatar. My first time creating a VTuber, so I learnt a lot and enjoyed bringing the character to life!
Recently completed VTuber commission of a cute little Jerboa Knight! Was a pleasure to work on such a fun character and I learnt a couple of new things about stylized shaders and rendering along the way.

Well, I guess you had to be fairly quick to see this. Not long after word had spread that there was a 1 minute and 20 second long video showing off some animation from THQ Studio Australia's The Avengers game was up on the internets, Marvel Entertainment stepped in and pulled it offline. The footage apparently showed off Thor, Captain America and Hawkeye in action and was uploaded as an animation showcase by a former senior animator from the Brisbane studio.

What happens after graduation is the likely pretty high on the concern list for most local students currently studying games development. With all the news of studio closures and massive staff lay-offs in recent years, it's hard to feel even a little bit optimistic about chances of employment in any of the commercial studios remaining in the local games industry.

Adam has weighed in on how much he is in awe of Mike's effort on this latest piece...
What made this piece so impressive for me was that he managed to achieve a level of detail and polish that you usually only see from film…
