Marketing and Art
It's been a long time since I published my thoughts here :)I really wanted to, but to my regret I couldn’t find the time until now.Today I want to think in text form about the fact that in any creative activity, marketing is very important if you want your efforts to generate income.For a long time I didn’t want to accept this, thinking that since I made something and published it, for exa...

When eating an elephant piece by piece, don't forget about the elephant
The-who-forgot-about-the-elephant xDNow I'm working on preparing the Fountain Guard Shoulder pads for publication on 3D stocks and the Patreon store. They were made to order and the customer wanted me to make only the shoulders and did not need a gorget. And now the time has come to load the shoulder pad model into the store.I exported the files, made renders, processed them in a graphics edit...

King of the Dead Sword in progress
I've finished almost all the sculpting work (I'll just have to work on the surface of the blade).It took me the whole working day to sculpt the pommel, and sculpting the handle with the guard took another 2 working days. I love the sculpting process, and this sword gave me the opportunity to look at the details and try to convey them in my work :)I'm happy with how I'm turning out ...
Planning\time management\lists
Part IIThis is a continuation of my thoughts on planning. Part I is here.My partner has a huge contribution to all this - it was he who helped me find and maintain a way in which I can live more comfortably. We came to this after several years of living together.My psyche works in such a way that if I planned something and, most importantly, wrote it with my own hand in my diary, then I will do it...

Planning\time management\lists
Part IWhen I started writing for this post, I didn’t expect it to be a large volume. Therefore, I decided to split the resulting text into two parts. The second part will be in one of the following posts.Continuing my thoughts that I may have Autism Spectrum Disorder.I understand that this Patreon page is dedicated to 3D models mainly from The Lord of the Rings, and the following reflections str...

About Support
Today I want to share my thoughts about you, Patrons :)I regularly watch videos about working in Blender, DIY, creating cosplay and the like. And often, at the end of the video, the authors say: “Thank you for the likes, subscriptions, comments and to my Patrons on Patreon.” For me, these words never had any connection with reality; I perceived it as similar to a like/subscription.But now that...
Poll
Thank you all so much for offering so many options ^_^I saved them all for myself in order to refer to this list in the future for ideas for 3D models.This is especially true for the ideas you proposed for helmets. At the moment I am making models of weapons and shields for Patreon, since I made helmets and armor for 3D stock.But perhaps in the future I will think about making not only shields and...

Thoughts on the second version of the handle
When I saw the comments on my post about the second version of the handle, I wanted to respond in the comments, but later decided to make a separate post. I thought someone might be interested in reading about my way of working and thoughts.Thanks for your answers, Wim and Ryan :)I started thinking about a second version of the handle because I want to make models that are as similar as possible t...
Handle
After I finished working on the Sword of the Nazgul and made a post about it, one attentive person drew my attention to one detail.It turned out that I took as a basis for my work a replica of the sword, which differs from the original. The sword from the film does not have a metal ring on the handle, and the pommel is also slightly different.What I'm thinking about: I want to make a second ve...
Announcement

And first I settled on the Gil-Galad shield.Do you like this choice or do you want something different?You can write your wishes in the comments, and if there are several options, I will make a poll to select the next 3D model.P.S. News for those who are waiting for Aragorn's dagger. It's almost ready and I'll ...
