Stepping out.

It pains me to do this, especially after seeing so many new people join over the last month, but I wont be able to continue creating VAM models. I will still release the definitive Alita pack along with her sword at the end of the month, but I wont be charging anyone for next month and wont be creating more models after that....

Textures progress

So, I don't really have anything interesting to show off in screens right now, but after feeling like I was beating my head against a wall for 2 weeks cleaning up the model then doing test bake after test bake, tweaking, baking, tweaking, baking, and feeling like i wasn't making much progress, I think I finally understand how...

Model: Done

Yup. The high poly model is done for Alita's Doll Body. I can think of a bunch more to do with it, but you gotta call it eventually, and I'm happy with this for the most part. I think it will look as good as it can in VAM. Now to prep it and bake it. Cross your fingers that these VAM textures turn out nice. Trust me, I wanna ...

Sorry for the Silence

Hi everyone. Sorry for no updates for a few weeks. There were some covid related things going on in my life, but all is well now and I've managed to get some work done.

Here's what I've been working on.

The carvings.

I think I'm about halfway done with those as of now.

I know it wont look quite...

Doll Body: Final phase of modelling

Sorry for lack of renders, as I didn't have much time. The main part of the modelling is complete though. Now we're just sculpting the carvings into ivory-esque panels.

Then onto baking textures. OH BOY!

The claw!

Close to wrapping up the high poly model of the doll body now. Her hands are well underway and I'm honestly eager to finish them up and get to the scrimshaw carvings. Also in the last picture, you can see exactly why I have been modelling her insides as well as you can see nothing but white inside the cracks on her arm.

Late night stream this week

Hi all! I'll be streaming this week as usual in the discord server all 5$ subscribers have access to, but it'll be a little later in the day than usual. I'm trying to find a time that works for everyone, but haven't got much feedback so I'm experimenting. Come give me someone to talk to while I work. So it will be 12AM EST, 5...

Modelling stream in 1 hour

Tune in if you're eligible. All 5 dollar patrons have access. I'll be broadcasting over on my Discord server. Today we'll be modelling the forearms and wrists of Alita's Doll Body.

Doll Body: Arms Half Done

Productive week. I managed to finish her shoulder, bicep, tricep and elbow areas. Blender renders as always. I'm devising some ways to get more of the detail from the wide open areas such as her armpit into the end texture without distorition, and I think it's just gonna take a few different bakes and some masking to get the ...

Stream Today: Arming up

It will be at 8PM EST, 1AM UTC. We'll be working on the high poly for the Doll Body's arms today.

Anyone subscribed to the 5$ tier has access to the discord channel where I broadcast the stream. If you are subbed to this tier, want to watch the stream but aren't in the channel, let me know. There is also a link floatin...

Doll body: Feet Complete

That was complicated. Why am I this way? At least the Doll Body has some very detailed feet now. I made sure to match it as well as I could to the VAM geometry so I'm hoping the toes will look pretty crispy. Overall I'm happy with how her feet turned out, at least on the high poly model in a Blender render.

Livestreaming Blender for 5$ subscribers

Come watch me model if you're subbed to the 5$ tier. Today I'm finishing up her feet and starting her arms. If you're subbed to that tier and don't have access to the discord, let me know.

Not done yet, but close.

This is when I had hoped to be finished with this and releasing it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to put as much time as I  would have liked into this, and it's a lot of work. I hope you all understand. I am working very hard to make this as great as I can so once it's in VAM it will be as great as it can be. We're ...

Rough times, but work continues.

The last couple weeks sure have been interesting. After some long hours at my day job and some distracting life events, I'm back making progress on Alita's doll body. I feel like I lost a whole week of potential progress, but oh well. I think I'm just gonna release her when she's done, instead of making some people wait. Sorr...

These Hips Don't Lie

This was a good week. I managed to get a lot done and I'm happy with the work I did. I finished the outer covering of her pelvis, butt, thighs area, and finally bit the bullet and modeled more detailed version of her insides because it was turning out to be necessary for the right look. I included a render of the inside of he...

Doll Body Progress Week 4

Finished all the greebly bits around her shoulders. So many little pieces. I'm almost ready to start working on her legs. Haven't been able to work as much on it as I would like because I'm back at my day job now, but I'm still quite happy with what I've done so far. I can't wait to see it on her in VAM.

Doll Body: Shoulders and Back

Just a weekly progress post. Not as much as I'd hoped to have done, but I'm happy with what I've modeled.

If you're a 5$ subscriber, ask me for a link to my discord server for more detailed and frequent pics of my process.

Doll Body Progress and a Deadline

Other than the inlays, I managed to finish her chest details and get some work done on her back. I think this is good progress, so I'm gonna try to release this to everyone on July 31st. I'll release it early for patrons as soon as I finish it, hopefully along with her sword. I apologize ahead of time if I don't get it done i...

First peak at the Doll Body

Excited to be onto this phase of making our favorite cyborg martial artist's original body. As usual, it's slow going, but I like what I have so far.

Low Res Alita

Hi everyone. It's been brought to my attention that the textures on Alita are too much for some people's PC's so I made a version with 4k textures instead of 8k. You can tell the difference, but the 4k textures don't look too bad, and they use a lot less memory so they load faster and run better. Hopefully this works better f...

Update from the Void

Hi all. This week since releasing Berserker Alita has been crazy. Had some PC issues, got a new PC, had to perform some surgery on heavy machinery, and then everything that's going on close to where I live with the protests and Riots in the united states, I wasn't able to dive into Doll body Alita full speed like I had hoped....

Important! What a mess!

So, because I'm an idiot and didn't understand until now how VAR packages work correctly, the old links were distributing basically garbage. I am so sorry about that. All links have been updated, but here is also a link to the new download as well. Definitely check it out. Everything is much better.  Again, apologies. I ...

Revised and Reuploaded

Based on some feedback, I have addressed some issues with her and reuploaded. If you have not downloaded rev1 version, I suggest doing so. It has a more proper gens normal map, her breast physics have been tweaked to not indent during certain poses, and I added the blood decal for her face. Simply clear the decal under her fa...

An Iron Maiden For All

Here's what you've all been waiting for. Our favorite cyborg martial artist from Mars. I love her, and I hope you all will too. I'm fairly happy with this model after all the work I put into it. It was so much to learn and a lot of doing things over again until I was satisfied, but here she is. I did it. I packaged her with s...

She is Imminent

If you've been eagerly awaiting our beloved Martian cyborg martial artist, it's almost time! I'll be releasing her tomorrow 5/20 in the evening for free to everyone. I think I'll still need a little time to touch up her hair before then, and today is going to be spent making her shoes, but we're almost there.

Her cloth...

Oh yeah, clothes!

I'm sorry, but she's getting dressed. I started her clothes today, and got a decent amount done as well. I have a bit to do still, but nothing I can't finish in the next 5 or 6 days. Stay tuned.

Hairy Situation

I have been informed that the hair did not include in the updated Early Access download so if you've already tried her, she should be fixed now. I also figured out how to make VAR packages work, so she's been distributed that way this time.

Textures: Done. Morph: Done. Now what?

Just completed her face textures, as well as some touch ups to her face morph. I'm quite happy with the textures, and now her mouth animates a little better.  What do you guys think? Did I capture her spirit?

I know you're probably wondering what's left. I still want to make original hair for her more closely rese...

Almost done

Body textures are complete. Working on her face currently, and after that's done, I just need to make some tweaks to her low res model, and do her hair and clothes. I am planning on doing a patron only early release of her without her clothes or styled hair once I finish her face and the model touch ups though. Stay tuned. Th...

Body:Completed

Took a lot longer than I wanted it to, and I still can think of a ton of things that need work, but I had to call it done eventually. I spend a lot of extra time on her arms and hands since they are the most visible in the film, and redid a few parts from earlier I wasn't happy with. I still need to do a final pass over her f...
