Many years ago I sampled the audio from a Cookie Monster toy then made a #90s thing with off-the-shelf beats, #samples from 90s media, and a little guitar.
I knew very little about #mastering, #compression, or even "levels", but it's still fun and (to me) danceable.
Since I can probably never work out the copyright issues of the samples... here is OhBoyOhBoy
"Oh Joy!"

How about a back-and-forth render of Powdered Toast Man for Friday? 
I think I'm finally finished with Powdered Toast Man!
This was a fun model to create, but the body was a LOT of work... more than the face/head, which was like 99% of my motivation to work on him. 
Anyway, glad to be done. Hope you all find some enjoyment in my efforts!
Ren & Stimpy fans out there: help me out, please!
I'm having trouble getting a good read on what Powdered Toast Man's costume actually translates to with more realistic materials.
Take a look at the reference image, and the two attached screenshots from Blender. Does it make more sense for it to have light sparkles? Dark? Some mix of both?
Tell me what you think! 
I'm just about done with the modeling portion of Powdered Toast Man (been a bit busy with work the last week).
Going to make a few final adjustments to his pose - and maybe proportions, since that part has been a little hard to nail down - and then start materials!
Had a little time to work on Powdered Toast Man in between other projects today.
Pretty happy with the pose at this point.
I want his back arm to be angled a bit more toward the camera though, so once I'm done modeling his whole body, I'll apply the Mirror modifier and adjust it.
I've been making a lot of adjustments to his pose as I go (those hands need some more work, I think), but Powdered Toast Man is coming along!
This is still very much a work in progress, but here's how Powdered Toast Man is going.
Getting the proportions right is tough (I think his face is a little big, and he's a little too beefy, perhaps), but it's getting there!
I think I actually prefer making the face versus the body! 
Hey, my Stimpy render made it onto BlenderNation's Best of Blender Artists this week!

Apparently 80lv did a short write-up on my Ren & Stimpy render!

I know you all are probably getting sick of seeing Ren & Stimpy in your feed, but I had to do one last render with the two of them at once!
I might do some more of the extended cast of the show soon, though.
This was created and rendered in Blender 4.2, with Cycles. All of the materials are procedural.
The scene/poses for these characters is based on a drawing by Lumspark.
Here's the back-and-forth render of Stimpy!
Rendering out one with both of them now. 
Gonna go ahead and call this one done too - not bad for a couple days' work! 
I'm pretty much done modeling this guy now... time for a lunch break!
Here's where I ended things with yesterday... hoping to have him finished today!
It doesn't look like a lot of progress from the last shot, but I've finished Stimpy's mouth now. And good grief, do I hate modeling mouths. It's just mind-numbing. 
I am proud of how the tongue turned out, though!
