An #introduction 
I'm Metin from the Netherlands. Starting as a 16-bit game developer (#Amiga, CD32, MS-DOS, …), I shifted to TV animation, news cartoons, magazine illustration and toy design.
My freelance glory days are over, but I still love to create, and share my work here and on @Seven
Some travel pictures taken during the hippo's journey from Unbound via ZBrush to Blender.

The final hippo rendering.
His journey went from Unbound (SDF modeling) to ZBrush (some sculpted details) to Blender (Cycles rendering).
Then, a bit of post-processing in Affinity Photo and PhotoScape X (Pro).

A little hippo modeling update…
Installed my last perpetual license version of ZBrush and gave the rocks more detail in there.
Modeling is ready now. I'll add Blender Cycles materials and lighting tomorrow for a nice new rendering.

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.
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.

Unbound hippo modeling update…
To do: nails, a tongue and a platform. To be continued.
Want to try Unbound yourself? It's free and available for Windows and macOS:
After years of working with a Windows PC, I'm back on #Mac. There's one tool I will dearly miss though, and that's the #MagicaCSG SDF 3D editor.
But there are SDF 3D editors for macOS as well, most notably the Unbound SDF modeler + game editor:
I've started a little Unbound character project to get familiar with it again.
More will follow tomorrow…
