Ooof this list is HUGE! I think this is a new record. To those of you who suggested multiple characters I may just hand pick one or two from the batch. If I can't fit everything onto all three pages then I will omit the more obscure characters because most likely they won't mak...
Main costume mostly done! A couple more minor adjustments here and there on the design and we are good to go. I need to start thinking about thickening some parts to make it more printer friendly as well because those feathers are pretty thin. The next task is to build the base and then key/sockets.
2020-09-22 02:03:45 +0000 UTC View PostPost your character requests in the comment so we can build a new list! Lets keep the first round list to a maximum of 3 pages (each page can fill 25 vote slots).
The two runner up characters in the previous round 3 vote will be automatically added into the next round 2 vote ( Yoko - Gurren lagann, Ochako Uraraka - My Hero Academia )
Raven's alternative costume is done and the main costume is nearing completion. I want to make the main costume a little bit more chaotic so I started adding some damage to her cape. Other areas of the costume like the pantyhose will also be getting damage as well. The belt design/placement is still ongoing and I need to find the right consistency. Sometimes the images in my head don't come out on the canvas as I imagine, so it's a constant adjustment. I have an idea for the base already and ...

Teen Titan Raven costume mostly done, but I still need to work on the finer details like the fleshy butt squish lines, cloth seams, and the wrinkles/folds. So far I haven't used any of Zbrush's new features yet because I'm pretty comfortable with the current workflow, but I may use some of the nano mesh features on the main costume to get the material definition. The pose will probably remain the same on the main version and the base is still in the planning phase, but will probably work with...

Hey everyone, here's another update on your favorite goth demon girl. Much of the weekend was spent refining the anatomy after merging the body parts together into one mesh. I did run into issues I couldn't put my finger on, but eventually after many reworks I ended up getting something I liked. The body still needs some more definition and that'll be an ongoing process as my eyes reset and I find more areas to fix.
I also decided to start on the Teen Titan alternative costume first sin...

Final pose reveal! Pose 5 was my first pick, but since pose 3 had a lot of interest (as well as being another one of favorites) I decided that it was the one. The arms are modified to be a little bit more interesting and in line with Raven's abilities.
Next thing to do is further refinement of anatomy and rebuilding the costume.
I'd like to know which poses everyone prefers of the batch. I am leaning towards a couple already, but if there is an overwhelming amount that likes a specific pose then I will try to work with that one.
Pick three different poses and post them in the comments.
The concept is coming close to what I want for the main version. Material definition has never really been a focus on any of the past projects so it's a new goal. The belts, gloves, and boots will all be close to a leather like material. The body suit, long leggings, and arm gloves will be between a leather and a satin. The hood/cape will be between a satin and cloth. Her thighs are dressed with ripped pantyhose and the material as we all know is thin so this is solely a proper paint job to a...

Hope you're all doing well, here is the first update for Raven.
While gathering reference images for Raven I stumbled upon a whole heap of many different iterations of the character from comic books, to video games, to movies, TV series, and toys. The styles also range from western, to anime influence, realistic, cartoon, and etc. There is no one size fits all type of design so as usual I will take what I like and create my own design as well. I know some of you are Teen Titan fans, so ...

The second video is probably a bit more interesting as I develop the body and flesh the face out a bit more. Enjoy!

I put together some footage I recorded as per request. The videos are going to be around 20 minute series. I don't know how many are going to be needed, but here are two that I just completed. Enjoy!

P.S. Let me know if I have made any mistake on reward distribution, send me a private mess...
Votes are in! I think we've seen these characters from time to time in the finals, but I never knew Raven was such a popular character. The new challenger this time is Ochako, I think this is her first appearance in the finals.
This round everybody is limited to just 1 vote. I will not be voting in the final round, but in the event of a tie I will choose which one is the winner. Vote will end on Saturday August 15.
As the title says all of the STL files have been sent to all respective Patron tier levels. I hope you guys like it and share your final print results because I love seeing it. You can tag me on Twitter or Instagram. Drop some images in Discord or post here on Patreon in the community section. Happy printing everyone!

Here are the parts list for both the Main and Alternative versions of Rabbit Hero Mirko.
The tier 1 miniature isn't shown here, but it is basically the main version combined into a solid piece and thickened to print as a single piece.
I've done one more final check in Zbrush and the pieces look like they are good to go. I am currently uploading all files to dropbox and waiting for the final responses from testers for last minute changes. Download links will be coming soon.

All characters that have moved onto this round are in order from highest to lowest vote count. There was one character omitted from the page because the limit was met, so I had to choose between Poison Ivy and Nessa. If there are objections then you can vote Poison Ivy in by comments and I can count that in.
No voting limit, but now your votes become a little bit more strategic. Top 3 moves onto the final round. If there are ties then I will break the tie and choose which character mov...
Finally finished the keys/sockets and I've got a couple of people helping me test print right now. This will take a couple of days as we find possible errors, but we are getting closed to finished.
I will start on the checklist and renders next.
As mentioned Shantae and Raven will move onto round two.
There are three pages of characters total. No vote limit, feel free to pick any character that interests you.

The list of characters got a bit crazy! There were about 71 posted character suggestions and that probably won't fit on two pages. I may have a system in the future where Tier 3 patrons will have more weight on the suggested characters if I can find a way to automate that process. I think I will move 2 of the runner ups from the previous top 3 automatically to round 2 For the upcoming term. The first round votes will be 3 pages for this term, the second round vote will be 1 full ...

Okay, I think I can call this done! I wasn't originally going to have the panty version, but thought I'd get everyone's approval first :). Should I include this version or nah?
The base is probably going to be simple on this project, and there will be one version for each.
After the keying/sockets are done I will need some Tier 3 Patron volunteers to help me test print. Let me know in the comments if you are available and leave your discord name so I can message you with ...
Getting close to the finish line. Next update might be the last one for Mirko and then moving onto keying and final renders.
Although I did not record everything (mostly towards the end) I will be trying to get a time lapse video out on YouTube. Video editing isn't a developed skill yet in my tool set yet, so if you have anything you'd like to see in it to make it better then feel free to comment. I might even try to break down the videos into smaller parts because nobody is probably g...
Let's build this list up! We will go with the two page maximum format just like the previous list, which is about 50 characters. Comment with your ideas.

Double check your Patron tiers to see which rewards you are interested in receiving.
As mentioned before the project will continue to progress through half of August and the second half of the month will be dedicated to the next project.

I kind of strayed from my original plan and created a different pose. I've also discovered sketches of Mirko from My Hero Academia artist (horikoshiko) from his twitter post here and is making me think twice about my idea for the alternative costume. Let me know if you like the school uniform by commenting "like." In the meantime I will continue to experiment. The weekend will give me mo...

Main version of Mirko done! This concept is based on one of the manga covers, but of course modified things like her waist armor to accentuate her curves more. I've also made her legs thicker from the previous WIP post and... a lot of other changes. You can see for yourself :).
The alternative version will begin next and as previously mentioned I already have a concept in mind.
This project will extend into half of next month, so next month will be split between Mirko and t...

Finished merging the individual body subtools and refined the anatomy. The ears need a little more work and the outfit is coming along.
If I crunch I may be able to get this character done by the end of the month, but of course the quality comes first. We will see how it goes and if the secondary costume will have any issues. If the progress is looking good then I will extend the print testing into next month.
The response to the pose was fairly even, so I choose this one since it was my original plan anyways. Made some more adjustments to the anatomy and pose in this update. Blocked up the hair and made adjustments to the flow. I always make sure the silhouette reads well in as many angles as I can. Next thing to do is dynamesh all of the separate shapes together to start on the tertiary forms as well as add the costume.
