I thought I was distracted before
Added 2020-05-20 12:57:02 +0000 UTCThe past week has been exhausting - in addition to another frustrating animation set, I've been moving out of my apartment. The move has taken longer than expected, because you never realize how much crap you have until you need to move it all. The heavy stuff is all out of the way, at least. If I ever have to move a couch in or out of a second-story apartment, it'll be far too soon...
This week, I'm back to work on that animation set. So far it's mostly just tedious copying & pasting of existing assets, but made more difficult thanks to Maya getting in the way. Tools and methods that worked fine on other sets are suddenly unreliable, Maya locks up or crashes more frequently... I'm ready for a long break from animation.
In the middle of all of this, I've been thinking about taking on another side project, something to hopefully take my mind off of work - figure unboxing & reviews on Youtube. One reason is that while putting some of them away, it would have been nice to have a guide for how everything originally fit; in some cases re-boxing a figure is like solving a puzzle. With all of my figures currently boxed up, now might be the best time to shoot several reviews at once!
...even if I end up not posting the videos, at least I'll have my re-boxing guides.
In the meantime, billing is paused again.
