Collaboration & Networking

[Junior]

Hey, i’m Junior, a 3D artist from EDENFRAME, specializing in realistic character and environement creation.

I’ll be honest, I’m looking to network with other artists, and i’d also like to meet people i could work on projects with. Unfortunately, i’ve been looking for a while now, and still nothing.

I find that collaboration is a good way to get to know other artists. It allows you to witness their vision of the world, their skills, but most importantly, their personality. Just like when you’re looking to make friends, you do activities together, and during those activities, you make sure to maintain peace.

Okay.. since this is your third try..

You may tell a bit more about yourself or what edenframe even is..

I tried to search it after your first post.. but thought: “Really” ?

Also: “3D artist”… could be “everything”.

Think about it..

Hey! That’s actually fair, and i appreciate you pointing that out.

I porbably kept my introduction a bit too vague. I’m Junior, a self-taught artist who lives by biblical principles. I create because i’m looking for ways to express myself and be intentional in what i do. I want to tell stories that aren’t necessarily read or heard, but rather felt through my creations.

As an artist, i’m mainly focused on realistic environement creation and bespoke character design, with a strong interest in sculpting details, texturing and lookdev. I mostly work with Blender.

As for EDENFRAME, it’s a company i founded and currently run as its president. It specializes in realistic environements and bespoke character design. The goal is to develop original 3D creations and enventually, larger cinematic projects.

And honestly, I’m not only looking for people to “work for” a project. I’m more interested in meeting other artists, getting to know how they think and create, and eventually building something together if our vision fit. I find collaboration to be a great way to discover someone’s vision of the world, their skills, but most importantly, their personality.

You can also find all my links in my bio if you’d like to take a look at what i’m working on.

I’ll be honest, i’m not very good at introducing myself, so i hope this gives you a bette idea of who i am and what EDENFRAME is about

Well.. i might have overlooked your profile ..non-the-less the arstation and instagram “adresses” are somehow the same as your webpage adress and so at least on ArtStation i can’t find any edenframe..

Anyway: i does sound weird that you do make such work (the humans) and does not have any “connections” to any 3D community !? But then there is also not much “insight” about those projects.. (and very dark..). You know that nowadays someone can buy “human-generators” ? Not saying that they are not done by yourself but if your studio wants to show this than there should be more “background” about those projects.. and some “prove” that you are capable of this. Only the flower field has some more description.. but then some images showing it would be nice.. ( you know also that nowadays people seems to not read more then five sentences: so properly some may have not even come tho this point here because it is “too cumbersome”.. or use some AI to recap that ??.. so make this “interesting”.. )

Also that you name is junior.. also in the “inprint” of your webpage.. Any profesionals will ask themself: “Who am i talking to much less with whom might i do some “business” ?”.. especially when thoseone call himself president of some studio.. if you know what i mean.

And i’m not even talking about the juristical side of this. So now even if you are “only” interested in connecting to other fellow artists.. there is not much info on which i for myself for example would decide to at least follow you here on BA.. if you know what i mean.

Good luck and and happy blending.

Edit: okay.. it does find edenframe.studio.. but do not make others do “to search” you ..and bespoke character and DAZ.. well.. there is a market for this..

Hey, i don’t know how we ended up at this point.

I’m not looking for a fight with you, let alone trying to prove who i am or what my skills are. And I still believe i have the right to be competent at what i do without needing to know a whole herd of people.

You’re right that some of my creations are missing information. But there is a method i like to follow : first, create something and make sure it is functional, then make it beautiful.

There is one thing i’ve never tried : going to a painter and asking them, “Show me proof that you’re capable of creating the painting you just made.”

You’re absolutely right that people seem to have trouble reading. But when i write something, i write it for the people who actually pay attention, not for those who only look.

My name should not be on my website, but if you could point out where it is, that would be great.

My name is Junior Phanord, but i still don’t know your name. Yet you keep asking me for more and more information while i still don’t know who you are.

And i’d genuinely like to know what the issue is with the legal aspect of all this. And before you answer that, the company is under French jurisdiction.

I came here because i wanted to get to know people, like civilized human beings, and today i somehow ended up in a one-sided interrogation that doesn’t seem to have a constructive purpose.

Yes, i used DAZ when i was starting out, and i don’t regret any of the creations i made with it. I learned a tremendous amount from it, especially through the use of Diffeomorphic. But you’re right, there is indeed a market for DAZ.

Unfortunately, that’s not where i sell my creations, because i don’t provide models for DAZ. And even if i did, i don’t see any shame in doing so.

But if any of you are genuinely curious about learning more about me my skills, i think the best approach is not to criticize without having enough information, but rather to come and ask for that information.

And you know what? The whole point of this conversation is Collaborations and Networking.

I was only suggesting some things because you seems to have trouble to get “connections”..

Therefore the..

@Okidoki

Think about it..

Good luck.
