Working on my larger scale enviro design, and had an idea involving a crashed ship and survival. Something about sharing body heat was in there, too, but I didin't flesh the idea out beyond that. That doesn't change the fact this is one of my favo...

He has a set of not quite Pearly Whites. And I think they came out pretty good considering how much I was dreading doing it. It wasn't so bad, I'll be honest. But Teeth and Gums aren't things I do a lot after the model is as finished as the Elite ...

I suppose the suit fit a little too snuggly, otherwise he would have been able to take it off before getting pounced.
2022-06-08 17:26:17 +0000 UTC View PostAs fun as it is to make separate links for each and every model set, It's also a little tedious. So I've decided to start linking the folder itself, rather than each file individually. Plus if I need to update a model or add something, I can simpl...

And a cute couple. But mostly the Suits because they came out looking really good!
I have a few more ideas that I want to implement with these suits, but I need to figure out the best way to make them happen.
The Sangheili took a...

The boys are back in town. I need to figure out a more daytime kind of place to render in. Also, I'll be uploading an update to these two pretty soon.
Some rig and weight fixes, mostly. But also some corrective shape keys. So it's a pr...

Here they are! A good amount of work put into them, especially since I didn't even have time make a location for this month. Thankfully I made some Halo themed props in the past! So my previous Sangheili obsession has finally yielded fruit.
Skrope'd
Verb. Past Tense
To be groped by a Skirm.
"Last night I was at the club, and I got straight Skrope'd in the bathroom."
I'm surpriesed at how not terrible rigging is as an experience. That's right, I am going to start moving away from Auto rigging software for my models. The Sangheili and Skirmisher mark my first (High-ish Quality) custom rigs!
The custom rig...

Got the skirm rigged, now for the sang.
Still needs a few adjustments, but nothing that would stop me from releasing him as is. I'll make the rigs better over the next month
They strut their stuff, as they should.
Finally got the Skirm all textured up, I did touch up the Sang's textures a little bit after I had finished the Skirm, since I had some new ideas on what to do and how to do it. So he ...

I've been a bit quiet on here, but I'm working fairly hard in the background. It's possible that I won't be able to complete both of these two until next month, what with life being a little busy at the moment, but I'm sure gonna try to get them o...

The Halo boys are pretty much sculpted, just need to properly connect the bits to the body, but once that's done, it'll be time for retopology! I might stream that since it's a little tedious, and a stream will keep me focused on the task. 2022-05-15 04:24:49 +0000 UTC View Post
Got a good sculpt update for the Skrimisher! I think he's looking good, but he's missing a few pieces.

Just an update on the first of this month's models. Trying a new technique for some rougher, leathery skin. I'm not sure I'll be able to live up to the quality of a AAA studio, but I plan on getting as close as I can.
Also I am officially mo...

The prospect of moving has not led to the most motivation or time to work on Blender things. I did manage to render these out over the last bit, and the tail pic is actually an update to the rigs I'll be pushing out at some point.

Kobold: Action in Back
A request from last month that I'm getting to now. Making 2 models at a time is a pretty focused endeavor, so it's good to have the next month as a slower, content focused one.
2022-04-11 20:52:16 +0000 UTC View PostI'm getting to this early so I can plan things out better. Also I have a few ideas already, so I might as well get to it while I have them in my mind.

And actually used ...

Guarantee they roleplay the classic Good vs Evil dynamic, and in this case Good has triumphed. Evil is being taught a harsh (though loving) lesson in justice. Not that Evil seems to mind.
First animation of the month! And surely not the last...

They come with a few poses in their pose Libraries. Plus any pose is pretty easy to copy-paste from Jake to DD and vice versa. The DD rig is scaled to 1.15x J...
