so obviously ive used blender before, i think i started using it back in 2021 just to play around with some open source splatoon models, and im well versed in the shading/rendering aspect, but ive never made my own models from scratch before. 2026 is the year of me throwing caution at the wind and going all out on projects, so i decided that now's the time to actually learn 3d modeling. This is how far i got last night in ~2 hours of work. im struggling with figuring out how i want the nose to look, and mirror editing two separate objects in sculpting, BUT i think the hair specifically is looking good so far! if there are any blender users who are wayyyy more experienced than i, id love a good list of plugins, shortcuts, etc that might make the experience better!
