Avatar world WIP Showcase + A new avatar in progress!

Added 2021-08-03 03:40:29 +0000 UTC

Hello!! A new update about the stuff going on here; I've been concepting out the new (new, new) avatar world for the phonodroid avatars to hang out in when they are released publicly. Heres a look at what i have:

I don't really have a specific look I'm going for this time and just kinda putting things in as they come to mind and taking inspiration from various places from my memory and other things I've wanted to do for a while but I think its coming together nice enough! I finally learned how to properly do spiral stairs in blender hfghfhgf;

As well as that, I have a whole new avatar in the works too! It may look a bit familiar.

This one is still very early in the sculpting phase (I just started working on it properly today lol) But im already happy with where its going!

I'm gonna be taking advantage of Neptune's unique anatomy and abilities to challenge myself in avatar making, adding stuff like properly rigged 4 arms (aiming to allow for the ability for the bottom arms to be toggled either puppeting under the top arms or staying in set poses) and allowing custom colors via variable sliders in the pop up menu! It will definitely be interesting to work on for me thats for sure.

I'm also gonna be attempting to rig it with fullbody in mind from the start, though I'm sure I will have no shortage of challenges due to Neptune's proportions. I cannot guarantee that I will have it fully working with this one ghfjgfhg.

On that note, I'm still trying to get the last few issues with the fullbody on the phonodroids fixed. That is very much a top priority before the public release but is proving to be more difficult than I was expecting. Also it sucks to work on it right now because the back room where my vr setup is is currently 85+ degrees during the daytime. (I am very, very grateful for the laptop I got now)

I'm well aware of there being a lot of silence from me recently here and I'll try my best to remedy that from now on;; Now that I have another avatar in the works I'll hopefully have more interesting stuff to show more often!
