i'm keeping the line work a bit rougher since i plan to paint the color and final line work all on one layer like i did for the character rotations for Simone

i'm going to print this out and paint over it like the skulls i posted yesterday. next i will use this blend scene as a base for that full 3d folio i promised. i am going to test rendering in both Cycles and Eevee to see which gives the best finished product....i think it will probably be cycles but that is going to take a lot longer to render.
yes the commission set is done now i can gather up all the images to send off to Simone

ok. i will keep doing studies like this because it is fun and scans decently but now i can start making folios.

oooh boy there were a few problems with this one. not super difficult, just tedious to fix. there were a few holes in her geometry that i had to fix and some vertices that were out of place but i managed to patch them all up and re rig the whole model adding teeth and eyes....and i forgot to give her a tongue well that is next along with the weight clean up

the only problem is she smells like pond water now

my copic markers and watercolor pencils came in today and i started making color swatches. i must say i really like both mediums.
after the swatches i will study how well they mix together. once i am confident in the mediums i will make some folios with all my mediums (that can be used together)

one of my supporters, Angel, asked for a commission....aaaaand after a few memories popped up i realized i never finished this particular 3d commission. very embarrassing. so i will finish it and give him a few sketches since i messed up.
the rig will be the easiest part to finish since i just need to use my naga models for the base rig. the texture might take a while since i need to first make sure her UV maps are good and fix them if need be, and she is a BIG model, ...

i found a bunch of stylized base meshes in my folders. they had i nice simple cartoony proportions to them so i rigged one up to see what i could draw over it. these will be great for my imitation "Darkest dungeon" style as is but i need to push my line work if i want to get anything more cartoony

Ah yes the damsel who started it all. this is actually a remake of the very first folio....not sure what i will do with the first one....might just add it to this one once i get up there

it will be slow going but if i never start Chronicles of Mar i will die before his story gets told. i know enough about mixing 2d and 3d skills to get everything to look the way i want it to and the color confidence to not have to rely on textures. i am even thinking about coloring it traditionally. i will only work the pages up to this sketch level so it will be easier to change when i get feedback.
also this will let me get out a page at least every other day without putti...
