  1. Hey all!

    Yesterday, I wrote an announcement regarding the surprise reveal of what was then going to be the new icon for Mine-imator going forward, and how the negative reception of it made me reconsider this design choice.

    I took this opportunity to show you a different take on the icon, and judging by the overwhelmingly positive reactions, I think it's fair to say that we've got a winner on our hands! After a few minor tweaks and touch ups, I believe it's ready, waiting to be used once Mine-imator 1.3 launches.

    But wait, what about Modelbench? Well, obviously I couldn't leave its icon untouched! After all, the goal of the rebrand is to unify both apps into one identity, so it's only natural to give it a fancy new icon as well! There was one challenge to overcome. What could we put in that colorful hexagon? Putting a bunch of cubes seemed like an obvious answer, but it just didn't look quite right... The Mine-imator icon had a 3D, Minecraft styled item inside that hexagon, so... Modelbench would have to follow that template, or else it just wouldn't work. But what kind of item should it be? What object is best suited to illustrate the modeling process?

    What about a hammer? This was an idea from Nimi, that he had while we brainstormed. It could work, you can build stuff with one of those. The question was now, "what should it look like?". His proposal was a blacksmith's hammer, but I felt like it didn't fit the program's name too well. After all, it's called Modelbench, not Modelforge... (that would've been a neat name, though!) So, in the end, we settled on the good old claw hammer. And after a bit of quick rigging and tracing...

    Here they are! The Mine-imator family now has its own set of icons! I hope you'll like it just as much as the one I've shown yesterday, and once again, please share any feedback you might have!

    See you around!

      petition to rebrand Modelbench to ModelForge (jk jk. The new logos look awesome tho! That edge lighting looks so reminiscent to MI lighting...I wonder if it was intentional or a happy lil accident Vox ?)

  4. Hi every one it's my birthday :DD so i thought it would a good time to announce a couple of animations  I got in the works.

    1's one I don't have a name fore yet but it should be coming relatively soon i will probably post some concept/poster stuff for it in a few weeks it's a short story set in modern day on how I got the fox on my head.

    2nd now this one is a much much bigger project in very early scripting and I would like to keep this a lot more secret the tittle for it is "One Last Time" it's a big project that I probably wont post about it for a long while so if you are interested keep your eye out for it.

    but yea that's all I got for you right now I'v bin in the MI community for over 2 years now and I have learned so much here and have made some good friends along the way thank you to every one  who has help me and in general just took the time give feed back on my stuff.

    (join my discord if u want to learn more/ get updates on this stuff in the future pls it's dead ;-;)

      Well that's technically true. But I still remember the horror everyone went through when there was the "New Copyright Policy" a few months ago?

      The FTC are filthy, evil. cruel and money-craving idiots who can't even tell the difference between a toothbrush and a machete, meaning they aren't fit to decide what comes up on Youtube and what doesn't?!

  9. In the next Modelbench release, saving will no longer be prevented regardless of errors in your model. You'll still get a warning of some sort describing what's wrong though.

      I agree with @9redwoods. Mine-imator needs a design rework to match with Modelbench and to look more professional.
