The "glasses" are actually referred to as eye shields in DX: Black Light :)

shields against what though I could understand if Jensen was running around in the desert but except for the intro mission in MD so far he’s just using them for a coolness factor Hmmmmmm

Can someone please tell me where this came from??

I made it! Don’t think I can ever complete the Adam model with textures and stuff but this was funny too ;)

3dsMax, suffering, and mixamo.com :D I wanted to get the whole Adam (hair and textures and stuff) to play around with but so far that’s all I managed to do...

Just wanted to say that I totally can't wait to see this blog active again once DXMD comes out. I'll be here eagerly waiting. Have you read the new comics btw? They're really good and can probably start you up with some writing fuel. <3

I have not read the new comics yet! I need to. Eventually maybe one day I’m gonna get my hands on an e-book/pdf file of it and be so happy. Ugh. I miss this nerd so much.

"They also cut out a convo combat with her that would have explained a lot more about their relationship" ....ok now THIS I didn't know! Can you elaborate on any info you might know about this? Also, where did you hear about that???

All I know was that it was supposed to happen during the elevator scene in the beginning originally, but they cut it out because it would have detracted from the pacing there. They didn’t go on to say specifics beyond what I said iirc. I heard it on the Director’s commentary :)

Do you have an etsy shop?? I would totally buy everything you make. Everything. Yes, really. Also, can you explain the process of how you make some of your stuff? I’m very interested in how you made these things…

Eeeeeeeee. Wow. :D  I have an Etsy shop but nothing’s in it currently and what I was selling there was tribal related. Lately I’ve been trying to figure out how I want to handle the shop. The pieces I posted recently are all from my own closet and weren’t planned for Etsy originally as they were either experimental or made for specific events.

As for process, well I’m largely inspired by video games, movies, and cultural research. I’m either making a piece for an event or because I have an idea for something that isn’t quite available out there in the form I would like it. When I’m designing with a character in mind, the pieces will be thematically related, such as with the Wavelength set.

 I love designing, but don’t actually like sewing that much. I do a really rough sketch and either find patterns close to what I want and modify them, or just have to create it from scratch. Sometimes there’s a lot of trial and error. My dress form and buttloads of pins are invaluable tools during experimenting.

 I also do reconstructs where I take apart something to create something else, in true wasteland fashion. The Sidearm pauldron I did is reconstructed from a torn up jacket and a backpack.

Due to my mad bargain hunting skills, I’ve become my own little fabric and trim store; I really like being able to just go into my ‘shop’ and pick from it if I feel like trying something out. So I have a packed inventory, just like in every game I play. :)

“Sidearm ”

i believe this is called a pauldron

Hehe, good to know because I’m really interested in making more armor like pieces like it. And with the metric ton of leather scraps I have, I kinda really should XD.

I believe that the "greying" you saw in Adam's hair was actually just the gloss from the lights. I thought that at first too, but in some of the other pictures with different lighting, he had normal brown hair.

Nah, I think he’s definitely got grays, I mean just look at all the crap he’s been through. Maybe he gets self-conscious and colors it from time to time, hence why it looks different. XD  

But seriously, it would certainly make sense from a character design viewpoint.  I love it when characters reflect change in their physical appearance as you progress through games. It makes them feel just a little more real.
