This week, the official private release of my thrud model is scheduled for Monday through Wednesday.
I can say with certainty this is definitely my most complex model by far.
As a result, I had to create a "How to Use" video in conjunction with some other guides.
Initially, I will release the female version ...

Here's a quick showcase of the UI and other things I've been working on.
Put aside dirt, blood, and sweat for now.
I'm figuring out a way to dynamically paint blood, dirt, or sweat anywhere on the model.
(Don't mind the 30+ hours of project time)

So, this is definitely the most complex node group I've ever made for any character. However, it taught me so much about organization.
It's still incomplete but it should be done by tomorrow and then I can add the finishing touches on the character and the interface.
After that I need to work on the documentation...
Here's a quick preview of one of the specific tailored functions for Thrud.

The only thing I want to say about this for now is that my future models will include a pose library available only to patreon donors.
Hopefully, this will speed up your workflow.
Can you suggest some poses for me to add?

So, I've finally got my own custom UI up and running.
There are still some panels to add so it isn't complete yet but it's definitely getting somewhere.
All in all, learning Python this last week has definitely been a challenge but I got significant help from an invaluable friend.

Another aspect I am paying attention to with my Thrud model is the Cycles shader.
I've been seeing a lot of people do renders with my models using Cycles and the results aren't optimal on my part.
Many materials are optimized for Eevee but once you switch the engine to Cycles a lot of the materials are way too glo...

It's been about 2 days since I released the test model.
I've received some nice feedback on what you guys like and don't like.
It seems to have been a good idea to use the riggify rig. Many of you like the easy to use rig UI in the "N" panel and the FK-IK snap buttons.
Because of this I've also been learning...

Okay, watching 10+ hours of Zbrush content and videos last month paid off.
I'm finally learning how to use the program in a efficient way.
My goal is to cultivate the skill of creating skin textures as much as possible to create high quality models in the future.
I'm currently experimenting a lot through You...

Here's the test version of Thrud.
Edit: You need blender 3.5
In this model, riggify is used as the main rig, so it's more organized and easier to use. I've posted some pictures to help you...

My goal is to release the first iteration of this model by the end of this week.
This is just a test version to ensure everything works.
Once I clarify how it works, I will release the FUTA version.
Nowhere near done yet, still have a lot of work to do on the skin textures but just wanted to give a sneak peek on what its looking like

So by popular demand, I'll be animating 0003_1
Also, In the last few days I've just been creating ways to streamline the creation of my models. This way in the future, I won't have to repeat certain procedures.
Other than that, I'm still working on Thrud every day. I always try to...
2023-04-05 16:06:19 +0000 UTC View PostDepending on the results of this poll, I will animate one of the pin-ups I've recently released.

Been thinking about just using riggify for my fuuture models.
Mainly because it has a UI and everything you really ever could need from a rig
Around 20 hours of work time on this one render. I changed the lighting setup around 4 times, had to redecimate geometry multiple times, didn't know wether I wanted the dog and V in the render or just judy.
So all in all, I definitely wasted quite a lot of time on this render. This one isn't going to be animated simpl...
In the final stages of a pinup and I need your input.
(Yes their will be alternates such as futa, straight and maybe different angles)
2023-03-26 03:28:39 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, so the next model has been decided.
It's going to be Thrud.
After I complete Thrud I'm going to port and finalize Faye.
I want to do maybe 2 or 3 pinups with these models and then after that, I'm looking to get...

Models are going to take a little longer than expected to get the updates finished.
Didn't expect my last project to take as long as it did to get finished rendering and finalize.

Also resized female version to correct ratio
