The "DIVE with Ü" lyrics:

We have t+pazolite to thank for that, because apparently he wrote the lyrics

and if anyone wants to know the English translation, here you go:

Clean up the Rodea fanmodel in order to distribute it? nahh. Make a whole other fanmodel for a completely unrelated character instead? YES. The good news is, I learned plenty with that one. Hopefully enough to improve all my other models. This was tons of fun. It's... a good thing it was fun. Luin is not the character you want to see bored...

his rig is.. FUNNY.

He was going to have so many shapekeys, I had to learn custom bone shapes. Some stuff STILL isnt optimal, I got lazy for the iris shapekeys basically and the bones get too big in pose mode but ehh. I can reorganize that later.

The ruffles move when the hand pushes them. You might not think its a big deal but I took a long time figuring out how to make it so they wouldn't bend when the hand doesn't interact with them. In order to achieve that, I had to use shapekeys instead of weight painting them to the hand. I did not look up any tutorials so there surely is a more optimized way to do that (bone constraints maybe?), but it works for me.

Expressions! I had a lot of fun with these. Got to the point I can somewhat replicate some other characters' iconic faces. And yes, he has a toggle for the rainbow eyes and sharp teeth.. I felt like it!

And to finish this off, this was my first time working with transparent textures.

This part of his design wasn't the easiest to handle, but I'm proud of how this turned out. Knowing how to do this properly will allow me to do his other form much easier than without :)

Thanks for reading this if you took the time to look at the whole post! Wacca so long.

sticker im making for funsies

is the watermark big enough

[phantaemon]

Gave him fully 3D eyes as an alt model. This one uses shapekeys for all expressions!

I'll release both with 2D and 3D eyes I think... And I really need to find a way to upload him somewhere before I continue with... this other thing I am in the process of achieving

If you know, you know.

[phantaemon]

Ay guess who messed up his setup and has to redo basically all of the shapekeys and the entire rig lol lmfaoooo couldnt be me right right (a good thing I keep 100 backups of every stage.)

phantaemon its 4am WRONG!! IT'S RENDER AM.

more under the cut + alt colors because I experimented and HE HAS COLOR TOGGLES NOW!!!

and here are alt backgrounds idk what to think about

[phantaemon]

we are so back

yes this is a fanmodel. I couldn't use the official ones so I thought I'd make one :)

it has maaaaaaany flaws but this is like my 3rd model EVER!! so I don't mind for now. One day I'll improve him! I'm thinking of making him available for FREE (I can't sell a character I dont own duh) but 1) I need to fix a few things, notably adding more expressions and 2) I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THAT. I have kofi but everyone puts theirs on gumroad maybe there's a reason for that.

"Speed im watching your stream why you trying not to laugh bruh"

[hyrulean-evalink]

some renders I made with the model my friend @phantaemon made! Can you believe it's his first model?

I may be getting into it myself, once I have the time and motivation
