This week's vlog!!
GOD is so incredible!!
- Fields and detail
A bit of a touchy subject for me, because I wanted to be able to render the wheat in it's physical, or at least, plane form, but for this scale of scene and my PC, I am so thankful GOD gave me this solution!! It works beautifully! Part of what HE used to inspire this particular idea, was Superbook's clip of Ruth gleaning in Boaz's field (they did a stunning wide shot of the field). They could put a lot more physical detail into it (like wow!!), because they have more resources, but seriously, a total must see, so I embedded it here:
Such a tender moment! Thank YOU LORD!
- Productivity and prayer
I sometimes as you guys for prayer in helping keep this project going and I still ask today that you not hold back on praying for this. These is still a lot to do and we really need that protection that comes from people praying for projects like this. Not just protection, but also productivity! My productivity this week was a lot higher than previous weeks, so I am just so happy about that, but I need it higher still - without burning out, haha.
Speaking of productivity, Terri Savelle Foy has a ministry about dreams and visions and how to achieve what GOD has placed on your heart. And one of those things is to make something called a vision board. A vision board is purely something where you put pictures up of what you believe GOD has for you. It comes from what GOD told Habakkuk: "And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it." (Habakkuk 2:2, KJV)
Obeying this command, has serious impact on you as a person, because it stirs you up to achieve it. It gives you focus and motivation, because if you can see it, physically see it, it removes it from being impossible to possible for you - within GOD's will for your life. Do yourself a favor and check out her YouTube channel as well.

- Particles for distribution
As I mentioned in the previous vlogs, the particle system in Blender can be very unpredictable. Not to the shame of any of the programmers, because I feel they did an awesome job on it, but the people still get stuck in the ground and some still float, haha. Thankfully, at this zoom level, it doesn't matter.
I do feel lead to make some smaller scale scenes, with higher levels of detail, where I wouldn't need the particle system to much, but that I can only do once the script is completely done and I have some story boards drawn up (so I don't make excessive amounts of small scenes with lots more detail). Gotta be smart about this too, not just called!

So, where did I apply this you may ask. I applied it in relation to this project, by making a "coming soon" image with a logo and character and everything, to motivate me to get it done before a certain month. This is not like a promise that is like: "OH YESS, It will be done by then!", no, it is setting a goal and I do consider it quite a lofty one at that, hahaha. I set the date for June 2017. Now, we're already in Feb and there is a lot that still needs to be done, but I certainly don't want to set the goal for December. I felt like GOD gave me three options: June, July or December. December I feel is a safe goal, but I honestly don't want to work more than a full year on this project, hahaha. It's not that it's bad, it's just that it shouldn't take that long for it to be practical. Your part is to pray for me to be able to get it finished by then and do it excellently! If I don't get it done by then, I'll move the date again, but I have definitely been more motivated since I see that image more than once everyday (desktop background).
Anyhow, that is it for this week's blog post, I hope you guys have an amazing day! Biggest thanx to GOD for helping me with this. Without HIM, none of this would be possible! :D

Hey all! I've been doing CG work full-time since 2011. GOD has been with me, supported me and taught me all the way. HE tells us to do all things as unto the LORD and that is my goal. I do whatever I believe the HOLY SPIRIT is leading me to do and it's not always easy, but it's always worth it to be obedient!
JESUS is awesome!! If you don't know HIM yet, follow the link above!
