New male 3D model - super early WIP
Added 2019-04-02 02:53:29 +0000 UTCEver since I finished that last animation I've been plucking away on a new model whenever I had some downtime. He's got a very very long way to go- this is some early alpha stuff here and literally no part of this is final, he's missing most of his texture, furry bits are acting weird, etc- but I did a quick render test just now and for the first time since I started working on him my first reaction wasn't "Ugh" so I thought I'd share. He's finally starting to show some potential!
None of the male characters I currently have fit all the criteria I wanted in a male model so I decided to make someone completely new. When I was thinking about what I wanted to make him I kept waffling back and forth between something sorta werewolfy and something more dragony. I ended up going with mostly wolfy mainly because I couldn't help myself, I like wuff boys. It'll be a good test of what I learned making Syandene though, since mostly everything should be the same. So far it's definitely gone much more smoothly, though there are parts I'm struggling with for sure. Blender's particle/hair system is always an absolute bitch to work with and simply refuses to play nice, but I'm beating it into submission as best I can.
Anyway, tons of work and fixing to do but I think he's comin' along. Would love to know whatcha think so far! Also, name suggestions are welcome. I don't think "Newguy" is going to work in the long run. :P

2019-04-02 10:36:56 +0000 UTCWooo what a pretty boy! Really loving his dark design and aesthetic! He already has a big fan :3 Not much I can really offer here, but one thing that I think may come to use: Will he have white in the eyes like normal, outside of the red iris'? As it stands right now it seems like the entirety of his eyeballs are black with the red iris, and that could come off to looking a little lifeless or flat, and won't have the same sparkle that the eyes on the Syandene model has. Just something to think about and look at during the process!

2019-04-02 03:59:33 +0000 UTCI personally highly approve old norse names! I've had "Ulfr Myrkrs" as a tag name for a long time online, and I think Runolfur would work great, could be shortened to "Runo" if you wanted. Ulfamur kinda just gets shortened to Ulf or Ulfa, which doesn't sound as interesting in my mind.
