Pimpin' Pink Pirate Hats
Added 2019-06-15 16:54:24 +0000 UTCI started moving on to the second part of the 0.12 update today - new graphical avatar assets. The image above contains a rough draft of 2 of the eventual 5 layers of vector drawing that will go into making the pirate hat.
Once I get the rough dimensions worked out on the standard dummy model for each layer, I'm then going to have to do another pass and make those dimensions scale based on the players current head shape. It's about as fun to do as it sounds.
There's a good chance that I won't get this 100% to where I want it to be on the first pass, as some of the embellishments I want to add (scalable skull and bones, shading, feather, etc) are frankly, a real pain in the ass to do correctly. However, I'll definitely get it into some sort of shape where it appears in the game, allowing you to start building out your pirate look.
On that note, I hope everyone is having a great weekend and look forward to the imminent 0.12 play test release that is coming up for Patreon supporters!
Cheers,
Mal
