The first 100 days:
This page contains the first 100 days’ worth of my ‘everyday challenge’ posts. I (unintentionally) started on September 23 so it neatly fit the 100 days into the end of 2021. This challenge/project is inspired by Mike Winkelmann aka Beeple and the many interviews he’s done, specifically one he did with Debbie Millman on her podcast, Design Matters. All of the 3D models and animations (on this page) were made in 3DS Max and some have effects and edits done in Photoshop or Premier. I still suck at website design so the captions are below the images and animations for each set.
