Oni Development Diary Round 2
Added 2023-01-26 18:42:00 +0000 UTCHey guys
Sorry for the lack of update as the month wraps up. Firstly, thanks so much for the support and hope you are all well.
This release is in the home stretch. Here is what you can expect. I tried a new method due to some feedback to see if we can get lots of variants and poses. Honestly, not been the most fun method for me. I usually like to sculpt into pose so not going to do this again but was a good method to revisit.
At the moment, here is the breakdown on the release. There is one sculpt I am working on currently, which I will preview soon. Expect the release isssssssssssssn two parts. First part around the 3rd with everything done and out by the weekend of the 7th with final renders.
I will do another preview before the month is over

You know your stuff. Yes you have the right idea. I use Maya but blenders rigify is an auto rigger which I used a similar one called 'rapid rig'. I work as a rigger / animator and I have my own written auto rig but rapid rig is very customizable and lets me crack it open and lets me add my own scripts / codes and bones without breaking the rig. Auto riggers usually annoy me but Rapid rig is great. Very clean. The battle is the geo topology. I can get around things but retopology, creating skin cages. All the lot just requires time and I do it for a day job . I just kind of enjoy sculpting minis and forgetting that stuff so dont think I will do this any time soon but it was nice thing to revist and I am sure I can do it quicker in future
