Zeus sits down to watch some NCAA basketball tournament games.

On a snowy winter day, Argyle decides to go outside and test his snowball throwing skills. He finds that the snow packs well, and that he can still get some nice velocity on the snowball when he tosses it across the field. "Right down the middle! Just the way he likes it!" I put this video together to display using Blender to build my Argyle character creation, and with the aide of the Mixamo website's armature-rigging animation presets, I was able to make Argyle come to life and throw a snowball. I used the "Grease Pencil" feature in Blender, and only applied it to the snowball. I think it added a nice touch to it. A few tweaks here and there in Blender, and this is my final result. My goal is to create a short animation of a snowball fight between Argyle and Elmo, but that's gonna take some work. But small steps first.... This video was created on April 18th, 2024, using Blender 4.0.2, Mixamo, and CapCut for edit purposes.

Introducing my new animated version of Argyle, doing the Gangnam Style dance. Argyle is a cartoon character I created years ago. I decided to build him in 3D using Blender, and then using a new rigging animation feature in Maximo to bring him to life. After many struggles and setbacks trying to get his newly constructed figure to work in Maximo, I finally succeeded in animating him. I chose this Gangnam Style dance to introduce him to the rest of the world. I admit, this animation is a bit over the top, but it's all in fun. There are a few elements of Argyle that I most likely will change in the future, including his hair, his shirt, maybe his eyes, and the shape of his head, to try and get him closer to what I envisioned him to be when I first created him. Much more of Argyle and his friend Elmo, and The Duck Song Duck to come soon! In this video I incorporate a rigged 3D character rigged for actions, tiny blinking lights, revolving text, and shattered glass text for the ending title. Also added are some extra text and effects used by editing in CapCut.

We encountered a wild turkey in the neighborhood on Easter Sunday. Where did this turkey come from? My nephew Preston and a neighborhood girl tried to help it out.

I picked up my brother at his house in Shawnee, and then we drove out to Leawood, Kansas to have a nice Easter Sunday lunch with the family. Then I take a drive back home late in the day to finish off a great Easter Sunday.

Elmo falls into a deep sleep and starts having a bizaare dream where he is free falling in space, then finally falls and lands on a nicely mowed patch of grass. He picks himself up from the long drop and notices a mirror in front of him. Elmo's curiosity kicks in and has to approach the mirror to get a closer look. And when he finally is standing next to the mirror, he has a sudden urge to walk through the glass. And when he does he experiences a time-space portal which then drops him from another mirror in and hurdles him back into space for another long free fall. A few moments later, he lands on another patch of grass and sees another mirror ahead of him. Is this a different patch of grass or a new patch of grass? Is this a different mirror or another mirror? Elmo is drawn to the mirror once again, and walks through it again, thus perpetually putting him into a dreamscape feee-falling time-loop dream, and Elmo starts to wonder if he will ever get out of it? It looks like Elmo is experiencing a series case of Deja Vu! Stay tuned for more Elmo in the future to find out! Elmo is the 2nd part of the duo of Argyle and Elmo, which I created years ago. It took me approximately 6 days to develop Elmo and then create this video. In the making of this video, I learned how to make easy grass in Blender, how to create fog in Blender, , how to make a mirror in Blender, make an object disappear using CapCut, and how to repeat rigged actions in Blender. Why go see "The Fall Guy" in theaters when you can catch "The Fall Guy" right here on Rumble, starring Elmo?! This video was created on April 23rd, 2024, using Blender 4.0.2, and CapCut for editing. Mixamo.com was used to help animate Elmo. If you enjoyed watching this video, please remember to "SMASH" that like button, and leave a comment if you desire to do so.
