I know I've said some of my previous models were my favorite but I think this is DEFINITIVELY my favorite 3d model. Of all time.
PLUS I have a ton of cool things to show off with her (including the rig because I finally learned how to use Rigify!!!!) so if you would like to know more about her then keep reading.....
(REBLOGS AND COMMENTS ARE VERY APPRECIATED!!!!!)
Before I get into the main parts of the model, I would like to highlight the texture first!
While it may not be visible on some of the other works with the compression, I added small halftone dots throughout the entire texture!!!
I also tried to replicate a more painted style throughout... although I couldn't fit the skirt on the UV map so I went for a plaid texture instead.
The design actually comes from one of my drawings from a few months ago!
Apart from the bows being added to match her ribbon (and the skirt ofc) I'd say this ended up being super accurate.
I also had some more practice with vertex groups! I used it to achieve the effect on the eyelashes (by shrinkwrapping only the top to her face) though I used it in some other areas such as to control the outline and the solidify on the sweater.
Okay now for the fun part... HER RIG!!!!!
I used the human Rigify meta rig (minus the face controls) and added some additional controls for her hair and face, so the full rig looks like this:
(Click for better detail)
I will be so honest. As someone who's been making their own rigs for months I absolutely LOVE this rig. It is ridiculously fun to use... or that could just be because most of my rigs are really simple.
I will 100% be using this going forward.
This video (as well as the next video in the series about rigging the face) were very helpful when I was setting this up!
AND. Since I'm using a new rig...
THAT MEANS MORE DANCE BREAKS!!!
Weirdly enough one of my favorite parts is that the feet stay on the ground. I could never figure that out myself.
And as promised the hair does in face have physics now!!!!! Sadly it doesn't work as well on the ponytails as it does the bangs.
Although you can remove her ponytails! I don't think she'd be too happy about it though...
(I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT HOW LONG IT TOOK FOR THIS TO WORK)
That's all that's new with her I think! Like I mentioned at the beginning I think this is for sure my new favorite model. At the least it's definitely a step up from the original...
(This looks like an entirely different character lmao)
I think once I get consistent with using Rigify I might try to learn a toon shader... since I've had practice with regular textures I think it'd be a fun next step.
I also still have plans to redesign and model my sona once I get to 700 followers (as well as to celebrate 50+ models in Blender) so look forward to that sometime soon!!!!!
Also feel free to let me know if you'd like to see some of my other characters in 3D... also yes I know I'm procrastinating on the Robo Sleuths models but I promise I'm just waiting for my motivation to come back first
And as always I'd love to hear what you think of her!!! I know I say it a lot but I do make a lot of large effort projects lol.
Finally: Some extra photos since I could NOT stop posing her....
(okay this one. might actually be bigger than i meant to make it lmao)
6ā2 and standing at the front of the crowd is crazy. you already have an advantage just by being alive brother. blocking out all the sunlight. life on the forest floor, withering away
Her birthday is in a few weeks so I figured I'd redraw this! From... over a year ago??? Good golly
Either way I'm really proud of how it came out!!
REBLOGS AND COMMENTS ARE APPRECIATED!!! I added a speedpaint below the cut.
(also yes this was once again inspired by the one drawing @doyoureallyneedme did some time back since i still love it and I. hope you don't mind me tagging you again lmao)
A cover for a hypothetical Penny Petite Valentineās Day specialā¦ Iām super proud of this so reblogs and comments are very appreciated!!!
Iām not too sure how to word it but essentially the plot is that Penny gives advice to Stacey about her crush on a new kid/a kid in a different class, but unbeknownst to Penny it ends up working, and so people start coming to her for relationship adviceā¦ shenanigans ensue.
