What if You Alpha Brush Texture Is Square or It’s Blurry?
What if you Alpha Brush is square? And if the resolution is too low? In this video, Jan van den Hemel looks at solutions to those common issues when using height maps as sculpting brushes in Blender, specifically with Hard Surface Sculpting.
Minor hippo modeling update…
Sculpted some grass detail in Blender Sculpt Mode. Placing brush strokes has a calming, meditative effect. Recommended.
Next up: some stylized cracks in the rocks. 
I hope you enjoy these work-in-progress updates.
A perk of being a 3D artist is that you can roleplay as a shoe designer

Mesh > convert to SDF grid > sdf boolean > convert to mesh is a pretty interesting workflow in 4.5 alpha, made possible by the experimental volume nodes, yet I can't wrap my head around how to even start *beveling* any edges? :D
Hippo modeling update…
After being born in Unbound, it's time for him to explore the world of Blender.
I realized that I had totally forgotten to add some nostrils in the Unbound version. 
So I added those in Blender now, along with a tail.

Thank you Southern Shotty for making this excellent video about slotted Actions in Blender 4.4 
Hangar -
Because the Chosen are so focused on settlements and colonization, their entire industrial complex is configured more for expansion than profit.
Exported my Unbound hippo to Blender. The SDF volumes have meshed nicely.
Going to add some details and render using Blender's Cycles.

Kind of makes me wish I had been able to do this stuff earlier, before this happened, but I can only go so fast.
Haven't seen price spikes yet, but it's a likely outcome as sellers react.
