Current/2nd pass, the other post is snapshots from a few days ago when I started Still has no hands or feet, actually had to redo them cuz I thought he had the three finger monster hands, but he does not~ Quick Cycles screens with stark lighting scheme for lookdev "suggestive" cuz "naked"

Started as a bust, was meant to be a quick sculpt for practice and an homage to Zelda's 40th anno this year (whew), but~ since Zelda's one of my earliest influences, figure I'll take it a bit further It's not meant to be, but labeled "suggestive" just in case since I haven't done his garb yet

Oh no he didn't! Did this in 2010, but did some quick adjustments here and there tonight; Samus and Ridley facing each other down, no idea why her helmet's off but she'll still most likely win lol Gonna do little fan projects here and there in the future, was the plan back in the day so hey~

Old doodles~ Always been Sonic-adjacent as a Nintendo kid, but the cartoons were neat Played some of the games here and there since, casually picked up on the "lore" thru folks really into Sonic and Youtube docs and, if I had a take, I'd keep it simple and branch loosely off what "SatAM" set up

First pass down, ngl it's rough right now; need to reroute some edges, but the general shape's there to add to, for a previz asset base I'm adding too much detail if anything lol This weekend it's on!

Busting out a basic mesh tonite, learning proper reserved topology along the way, keep it lowpoly as possible while giving enough for basic expression Following a guide on the head, extruded loops for face, eyes, mouth, lips, ears and it "all made sense" (it's gonna be a looong night lol~)

Found and uprezzed this old old pic of Sabrewulf from Killer Instinct, it's a lil crusty but I like the idea Was before the reboot, so was trying to brainstorm an update to the 90's versions, sort of a combo of KI1 and 2 with his mechaprosthetic arms being more "techy"

lol Okay last progression shot on here for realll, still early stuff, still hairless, definite multi-day project for me~ Definitely think that I understand what they were going thru when going from Tidus' cinematic asset to the PS2 model, totally changes how it's perceived for sure

Sub-d, more refining, think It's at a point where I need to add proxy meshes for hair + eyebrows cuz it's actually harder to get things down without them, but eh, decent base Prolly gonna document the rest of the process on my dusty Tumblr, post the finals on social media/AS

Actually using said layout (the bust comes with Blender); Ambitious study, spending a few hours on it tonight to get some specific things down for other projects it's looking rough starting off, just moved some foundations into place and slapped color on it but hopefully it won't by the end lol

lol Years later I got a solid default layout down, settings where I want them (and not overheat and shut down my laptop), Blender's at a solid point where it's all me and not thee Just need to convert older files to be updated with the new build and voila, more procrastina- I mean happy Blending~

Not the greatest but eh; The quickest mockup of a future idea I'm dubbing "Hajimejime" while trying to figure out several solutions at once The realtime compositing's nifty and I'm slowly getting the hang of Geo Nodes basics; Was p neat, next round should be better lol

Saw the template on Xxx ( twitter.com/naitsade/sta... ), so figured I'd give it a go~

Figured I'd get some proper Blender practice in, (very unfinished) bust of my Roegadyn from Final Fantasy Fourteeeeen~ Gonna actually push this one to get down a few things down like proper texturing, groom and armor/accessories, might retopo him for animation/rigging practice, see what I can do

Quick sloppy mood pieces + ideas; Some Leon, Rock, uhh, Pizza Guy # 1 #WFtmnt1988

Loose concept of April and Splinter for a future project; Throwing ideas out there to mess around with, sorta going for a late 80's look on April and a "younger" (mid-40's) take on Splinter #WFTMNT1988

It's a lil old, but it's something~ Older concept of JT from Darkstalkers training with one of his orphan students; I'm gonna try something neat with this down the line #fanart #Darkstalkers
