New to all this - pretty confused - Introduction

Here's a recent sketch!:EiCYBxvWoAAwe9e.jpeg
Hi my name is Shahan, it has 'haha' in it so it's a part of my username everywhere. On GitHub I have the username '9' I've been trying to make tutorials and help people learn things like game development. I've made some sample gamedev/VR projects and free assets there. I was a terrible student and in the lower level math classes so I feel I can explain things in a way most people can understand. My greatest personal achievement was making a YouTube tutorial for Blender lowpoly landscapes imported to unity that got a lot of views and positive comments. It always makes me happy to go back and look at those comments. Other than that I feel I have never finished anything at all really. I also want to move towards more text tutorials I think they're quicker and easier to digest at your own pace though video tutorials have their own advantages. I think teaching helps me solidify my own knowledge. And I'm always learning about art, drawing, 3D modelling, gamedev etc.. I feel spread too thin on all these topics and want to focus on making some kind of art that combines it all.
Please share requests for tutorials if anyone is into Unity3D/Blender!
It seems a lot of people post pictures of themselves in these, which I don't really like to do, but I made this because Unity released a cinematic trailer with a character that looked like me, my friends messaged me to tell me they stole my likeness, what do you think?

All my inspiration for art comes from my earliest childhood memories of watching my older brothers play Playstation1 games like FF7 and Metal Gear. Those images are always in my head. Lately getting into cryptoart.
I hope to tokenize my first artwork on Nftshowroom soon, little overwhelmed by the process and confused...

Hi Shahan, Its great that you put it into a blog and left it here on the blockchain, so welcome, welcome to the Hive movement and blockchain. Your first blog is up and on the chain, hope you feel relieved, and not afraid of what is coming your way in the comments.
We know it can be daunting and frightening because all is new.
If you want to read some history this is a blog https://peakd.com/hive-198524/@hivepeople/hive-for-noobs-hive-198524 about it.

But for now the new beginning, you will have fun blogging and vlogging I promise. But in the beginning it’s hard and all is new and maybe you need help. We have amazing people here and a help discord if you need it. I love blogging, and was a newcomer once aswell so i know the feeling. The biggest and best advice is always be carefull with all your passwords, Never give those up !! I speak from experience !

What always will help you build your new hive account, and profile on here, is establishing relationships and the best way to build them is to comment on other people's posts, there are so many topics here, and there will always be one that is of interest to you but also be interested in them, by reading and upvoting. This will draw them to your own account aswell, where they will discover a little more about you and relationships take off from there, and comments and votes will be the next step. When you have a twitter account you van visit #hivelift for more information.

I use Peakd to post to Hive. But hive.blog is an option too. They work well and let me know if you have difficulty.

Good luck with with hive experience and I Will See you around and may you find here what you are looking for. Just remember that all good things come in good time and never giving up is THE key to the big succes on the Blockchain.

Welcome to the Hive community @s-haha-n!
We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.

Seven suggestions to consider:

  1. Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
  2. Use your active key only for wallet transactions, keychain and Peaklock,
  3. The owner password is only used to reset compromised passwords,
  4. DO NOT lose your passwords; copy and store offline,
  5. Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and
    be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own
    .
  6. An introduceyourself tag is used only once , and
  7. Do Not open any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

I found you because @brittandjosie and @jamerussell from @heyhaveyamet presented and promoted your publication to get more exposure and help you grow faster.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Hivians available who can help you; you can click to go to The Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Hiving!
