PHEW feels good to finally get that off my chest, now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some anatomy to study! :D

The more you know, the more you know that you know very little.With everything you learn, you gain the knowledge that there is still much to learn out there.
Same with your skills. You`ll never live up to your ambitions, nobody does.You can only get as far as you know where to get right now.That place you want to reach today, is just a place you surpassed tomorrow.

BATTLE THEME

WOOO. There. I drew an assortment of my characters as Gym Leaders (10 leaders instead of 8. My region is HARDCORE).

Some extra notes & fun facts:

  • All but Tara and Kelp are from my comic, Heartblade. Tara is from my game concept, Terranaut, and Kelp is currently without a home. Knick’s outfit is actually based on his lead role appearance in Knick’s Adventures, rather than Heartblade.
  • Sometime later in the theoretical game, you would end up fighting Knick and Lucio together in a double-battle. Since they’re bros and all that.
  • Lucio is mute, but communicates through psychic powers.
  • Cinder was ORIGINALLY designed as a Fire Gym Leader.
  • Dr. Freaksworth is co-owned by my friend, Sandman-Ivan.
  • Kelp and Lokard had their inhuman traits removed for their Gym Leader designs.
  • The last name in each team is their signature/most powerful Pokemon.
  • WHOA, THAT’S NOT ALL! I have The Elite Four & Champion coming soon!

PS: As of posting this, each Gym Leader reveals the names of more Fakemon I have yet to post. Consider this also as a big, fat, teaser. >:3

Enjoy! I had a lot of fun drawing all of these.

A ghost of a chance, nooooo!

Really though, Nick is putting some neat stuff together for his fakemon! 

check him out~!

my entire math life

This is basically the problem with the entire modern educational system.

Time to do unpopular opinion? Time to do unpopular opinion.

Balancing a checkbook is applied addition and subtraction, stuff of the third grade. Okay, yeah, it is a failure of the modern educational system if he hasn’t learned it by now.

Imaginary numbers interact with real numbers (1, 2, π, 1.5, etc) for complex numbers, and are useful if you want to get into engineering or science — you know, high paying jobs.

Remember Tomb Raider? How they make her turn? Quaternions, which use THREE sets of imaginary numbers.

Like how your cell phone gets reception? That requires resonance, the understanding of which can be aided by complex numbers.

And don’t even get me started in the more exotic physics like fluid dynamics or quantum mechanics. That is, the forefront of how planes fly and how computer chips work.

There’s this term, innumeracy, that is to math what illiteracy is to english. One thing that bugs me is when ignorance is paraded about, when one acts as if math is an optional knowledge. Doubly so when it’s the very thing holding them back.

The failure is not in teaching these things, but the lack of teaching about why we should care about these things.

Thank you maths side of tumblr

The failure is not in teaching these things, but the lack of teaching about why we should care about these things.

Come to think of it, that’s applicable to how a lot of subjects are taught.

But I’m afraid maths gets the worst of it, really. I mean, how often have you heard people complaining about history? Social sciences? Even chemistry, which is more specialised than maths? No, maths gets the worst of it by far, and everyone demonises it because no one ever tells them that maths is a language, and a quite difficult one at that, because it’s the language of the Universe (of god, if you will).

Not only that, but it’s also the only language that’s truly universal (we’re certain aliens will arrive at the same maths we have) and that can truly explain everything that’s in principle conceivable. Human language can describe the stuff we see, and some extrapolations we imagine; maths can describe everything that is, was, will be, has never been, and could ever be.

Everything is maths.

This is already excellently explained and defended, so please forgive me for reblogging and adding a veritable novel to it. 

This is precisely what nobody ever even tried to make me understand as a kid, and what I try so desperately to make people understand as an adult.

When the above say that math is a language, they are being more or less literal.

The reason that mathematics is so confusing to so many people is pretty much just because it was never properly explained to them.

Math is a language heavily reliant on the symbolic representation of pre-existing concepts. As a language, it is dedicated to the pursuit of absolute grammatical consistency and the simplification of its sentence structures without any accompanying sacrifice of meaning. 

So, actually, math is infinitely easier than English.

I’ll get to why below.

Now that I am programming games, I`m seeing all kinds of problems that they tried to teach me about when I was 14.

I`m having trouble with basic concepts in math because I am a very visual thinker.
The problem with the math classes I used to get where the surreal examples that didn’t seem useful at the time.
(Like the 20 watermelons or train A and train B examples everybody knows about)

If they told me that this stuff was how physics worked in games etc, I am pretty sure everybody would be much more interested in learning about it.

From the top left it’s
Aisha Clanclan from Outlaw Star, Sora from Digimon, Suzuka from Outlaw Star, Ryoko from Tenchi Muyo, Umi from Rayearth, Yellow and pikachu from Pokemon Adventures, Mimiru from Digimon, Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, and Meiling from Sakura.
So glad I wasn’t born five years earlier.

Stuff like this makes me want to do a big composition drawing myself o3o

so.. there’s my 4th experience with Maya this year. I’m not that good, but i did learn a lot from this project. Sadly i didn’t have enough time to create something prettier, or spend some more time on the textures. 

And here is what my classmate made!Guess we both prefer an orange colorscheme, haha!

My 3d-model quietly hides in the shadow of yours though. D: Meh. Im more of a 2d f-artist anyway. 

Well thats because I have done my fair share of 3Ds Max and a bit of Blender.It would be unfair to judge it by the same standard like that, since you are completely new to 3D modeling and I`m just getting used to the program.

I guess you do have a point, last time i worked with maya was in my second year of middle school. Which was roughly 3 years ago. I wish we had more time and stuff, to create more epic stuff. Also the 3D’s of our first year should create a 2D game. And make it say ‘Made by 3D’ in the credits. Just to mess with people. 

With the “3d’s”, you mean the Daniël Collective?Sounds fun. I was planning to do some things over the summer vacation, so if the last D feels like joining in, we can make a little something something!

Yeah, The triple Daniël collective for extreme research into pineapples and assorted fruits for the better of gaming in the nature of all the platypus people of western eastern.

 j3rry1ce said: I mean it, it looks really great, my knowledge of 3D realated things are limited, but I can see that this is good and it probably took a lot of time.

I know Tiff! I was not being sarcastic or anything o3o
It took me about 2 weeks, with other homework inbetween as well xD

  1.  j3rry1ce said..Whoa, wait what? This looks awesome! :O

Thanks Tiff!
That was the reaction I was hoping for ;D

So today was Deadline day for our 3D homework. I made a house.Victor lives here or something.
