Hi guys! My name's Wes, aka DrySocket! I make art for Dota 2, so you should check out this junk. [Facebook Page!](http://www.facebook.com/dryaliaworkshop) [Drysocket's Workshop!](http://steamcommunity.com/id/drysocket/myworkshopfiles/) [Steam Group!](http://steamcommunity.com/groups/ChemDry) [Professional Portfolio!](http://wesparker3d.com) [Steam Profile!](http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197993358976/) [Spotify Profile](http://open.spotify.com/user/1220975378) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Oh hey you're back! I've been in the game industry for 14 years, working on a variety of titles. My biggest accomplishment was working on Borderlands 2, where I modeled and textured characters such as Tiny Tina, Goliath, Bullymong, Nomads along with a bunch of others. I've also been making Dota items since the beginning of the workshop. I was invited to TI3 to represent the workshop, and again for TI4 and TI5. It was amazing to meet so many people who are so passionate about Dota.

You don't have to do this to be my friend, but I thought I'd throw it up there, in case you wanna buy me a cup of coffee or some beers. Make sure to write something hilarious, 'cause it'll pop up on the screen.

Sometimes you'll hear a lady talking on the stream. That's the very talented Chemical Alia, my coworker! If you like this stream, but feel like it could use more colors and less music, go over there and follow! we watch both chats :) Join [CHEMICAL ALIA'S TWITCH](http://www.twitch.tv/chemicalalia) to watch her texture and draw! Both typically have the same dialogue, just a different perspective. Oh yeah, and did I mention mine has music? That's why mine is better.

Q: WHAT PROGRAM IS THIS?!?! A: That's either Zbrush, 3ds max or 3d coat! Q: HOW MUCH MONEY DO YOU MAKE?!?! A: How much money do YOU make? Naw, I just don't like talking about that sorta thing. I make enough so that doing this full time is worth it. Q: WHAT THE FUCK WHY ARE YOU SO LOW LEVEL?!?! A: Well that's rude! =P I'm workin' on it, geez! I play with viewers sometimes :) Q: WHO IS THAT OTHER PERSON ON THE STREAM?! A: You are a very loud person! Look at "The hell is this" section somewhere around here. Q: WHAT ARE YOUR SPECS?! A: It's just a normal PC, with an okay video card, hooked up to a [Cintiq 21UX](http://www.amazon.com/Wacom-Cintiq-DTK-2100-21-inch-Display/dp/B0038PQCQK) Please read [THIS POST](http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Tutorials) for more information about 3d art. It really is informative.

1) Be nice to each other 2) Be nice to me! Ya don't gotta stroke my ego, just treat me like you'd like to be treated. 3) If I'm playing Dota, rule 2 goes double. I don't play much, but I wanna learn. Help me out! Tell me what to buy next, strats for the hero, and tell me where I shoulda been when I died. 4) Ask questions! I love to talk, and love to answer things. Just make sure they weren't covered in the common questions section. 5) Don't ask about money. I get no secret data from Valve, we're just two artists trying to get by in a cold world.

M-M-M-MULTICAST! Every once in a while, you'll see a tag up top that calls the stream a multicast. That means that you can watch both Chemical Alia and me work on either the same stuff, or different projects, but at the same time. [Just follow this link](http://kadgar.net/live/Drywalll/chemicalalia) We have the same sound, but you'll have to mute one of us to stop some nasty echoing. My stream has music, Chemical Alia's does not :)

A friend of mine has some emoticons for this channel in the works, but we need some more suggestions. Come on guys, you're watching an art channel, get creative :) Message me suggestions, post 'em in chat, whatever!
