Hello there!I used to be a full time VFX artist working as compositor, 3D artist, producer and supervisor.
These days I am mostly home-bound due to health reasons, so my focus is mostly on tending to my family as the resident cook and doing the occasional remote work for film and TV projects.
You can find my work history on IMDB or LinkedIn and I do have a rather old showreel on Vimeo. Apart from that, this is my online home. Feel free to get in touch via email or on Micro.blog.
It has started. Geinsheim’s 1250 years anniversary kicks off with an open air service.

I simply do not understand the US republican mindset. There is no “trying to emphatically view it through their eyes”. How—for example—can you claim to stand for Christian values and then spew hate about immigrants? How can you be a Christian and blindly follow a known liar, criminal and generally unethical person? I simply don’t understand it.
My credit card got locked yesterday due to a fraudulent transaction. Getting a new one next week. But guess what today is? Yep. It’s the 1st of August. And what happens on the 1st? Right. All the services want their payments and fees and subscriptions. Guess who’s getting ALL the emails today? 👍🏻
So the surgeon thinks it’s not an inflamed insect bite, but an inflamed sebaceous gland. Go figure. Either way, that sucker gets cut open on Tursday.
Watching Aquaman with the kids. Our son has made it his goal to watch all of Marvel and DC back to back. Aquaman is actually not that bad. Not great. But also not terrible.
Our son has looked up his Pokémon cards online and apparently some cards are worth several hundreds. Not sure how accurately these marketplace values are. But he seems happy. 🤷
Tonight we are having session two of our DnD group. I’m hoping it goes better for the party then last session (where we had a TPK). Either way, they are all pumped and are having fun regardless. As will I.
My blood pressure is acting up again. Around noon it goes into free fall for a couple of hours rendering me pretty much useless. Will need to adjust my medication and hope that fixes it.
The progression of my son as he paints minis is obvious. (Owlbear at age six. Tiefling at age eleven.) However, the difference between him and his sister is astounding. She is four years behind him, but already paints as good as he does at age eleven. (Her‘s is the Druid.)
Out and about eating ice cream.
Home again! Super happy to see my wife and kids again.
Good morning on day four of my hospital stay. This night was a night of horrors. A big thunderstorm with lots of lightning paired with several people screaming in pain through the night.
Day three at the hospital. I hope I’ll be able toe toTor to leave tomorrow.
Day two at the hospital. Cabin fever already setting in. I hate staying at hospitals.
At the hospital. This time it’s me and I’m staying for a while. I have an inflamed abscess probably from an insect bite. That sucker grew larger over the last seven days and since yesterday I also have a fever. So now I’m on antibiotics and hospital surveillance for the next several days.
Foundry VTT self-hosting or using The Forge
My Foundry VTT journey continues. Last Tuesday we had our first session of Lost Mines of Phandelver and I promptly kill our party. It was a bit unbalanced due to only two of four players showing up and them insisting to pretend like the other party members didn’t exist.
But we all still had fun and they instantly proceeded to create new characters.
Also, I’m slowly—or actually rather fast—running out of server space with all the extra modules I’m installing. Uberspace by default gives you 10GB of disk space, most of which is taken up by my wife’s email account. She’s not great at inbox zero…
Anyway, you can book an extra 10GB for €3 a month, which I did. But now I’m also running close to that limit thanks to some modules that require several GB of space. And now I’m pondering where it is worth the extra €6 a month to self-host and the flexibility that brings or if I should buy access to The Forge for about €4,50 a month and safe myself the headache.
Why do printers still suck so much in 2024‽ Wireless printing should not be such an issue still.
Session One of our Lost Mines of Phandelver DnD campaign starts tonight. I’m very excited.
