I've been in talks with Dean Yeagle the original creator of Mandy and he has taken a liking to the Mandy sculpt from the first term. I've sent him 3D printed copies of both versions and he likes them both and is interested in producing them professionally. Mandy is Dean's intellectual property so...

If you want to check out my work flow then take a look at my time lapse videos. I'll be releasing more as soon as I compile them, enjoy.
2019-10-14 16:39:11 +0000 UTC View PostI've messaged all patrons with paid status for October and their respective tiers the link and passwords to the files. If your payment status was declined then you may have to wait for the next term to request Tsuyu or you can get it on the gumroad page once it's set up. Tsuyu was another fun pro...

Uploading files while I type this and should be ready to share tomorrow. If there's any questions on the naming convention then let me know.
So this time around I tried to make parts interchangeable as much as possible to avoid printing similar pieces more than once. All head versions shoul...
2019-10-11 01:21:52 +0000 UTC View PostI took the top 3 of Round 1 and added a couple more that people suggested in the comments. If there's a tie then I'll pick the project from the tie.

Alternative costume for Tsuyu is complete and I think I'll call this "Summer Tsuyu." Next thing to do one more visual pass to check for last minute tweaks and then break up the character into modular pieces for 3D printing.

Nearly complete! This time I added leather texture to the gloves and her chest strap to see how well it will print out for some of you with resin printers. I still need to create some more wrinkles on her suit. Her alternative/nude versions for Tier 3 is in progress as well.

First round will be votes to select which characters stay on the list to go onto round two for the final vote. If round two produces a tie then a round three voting will be made, and if round three produces a tie then ...

Once again I spent too much time on one thing, the hair. They are all very subtle changes individually, but together they become a big change. I just wanted the hair to feel graceful and a lot of smooth curves without making it too detailed. I added a lot of ridges to represent the hair flow, but...

Worked on the hair mostly this time and it was more challenging than I originally thought. It was constant reworking of multiple versions and thinking that I finally got something I liked then coming back the next day and thinking it could be better. My original hair felt too unison and boring. I...

Merged and dynameshed a lot of the simple shapes on the body and started sculpting the anatomy further. I'm still adjusting the booty since its a pretty noticeable area of the figure it is my duty to make it look good :). The hair was a good opportunity to give the figure a more dynamic feel. I a...

Adjust the pose further from my previous pose. This time around was just a lot of little tweaks to align the anatomy with the pose. I had to make sure there is a sense of weight put on her arms as she overreaches and try to maintain balance. There was a lot of trial and error adjustments and furt...

In this video I focused on anatomy, proportions, hair, and costume design. You'll see me bounce around different areas a lot to not get too tunnel visioned in one area, it's good to step back and reassess the figure as a whole often.

Here's half of the footage I recorded so far. I am trying to keep each video under an hour, I don't think anyone can sit down and watch for too long anyways. I used better music this time around. Enjoy, any suggestions for improvement is welcome.

Painted the figure to see how it will all come together and for future reference for details. Here is also the initial idea of the alternative costume. I like having other types of materials in costume design, but at the same time fur doesn't scream frog to me. I might adjust the alternative cost...

This time around I didn't have as much trouble with the proportions. I usually see something I want to change when I step away for awhile and come back, but I think I'm pretty satisfied. The feet and hands were fun to design and because they are bulky and animal-like I was able to play with the s...

Little update on the head sculpt of Tsuyu Asui. Not quite there yet but closer on the look I want. I was preoccupied for these past two weeks, but will be shifting more focus to this project. I have a couple of pose ideas roughly blocked out already, I will redo them once I get a more fleshed out...

Just released a speed up video of my workflow. There are gaps at some points because I either forgot to hit record or ran out of hard drive space, especially toward the end. My workflow isn't the best way to sculpt, but it's how I am currently doing things. There is plenty of room to improve all ...
2019-07-28 23:59:05 +0000 UTC View PostThis past week was just full of subtle tweaks and breaking down Ranma into modular pieces followed by test printing and making sure the sockets fit. I already completed a test print of the main version of Ranma and everything looks good. I am printing the alternative version now, but turned up th...

Getting close to the finish line.
These clothes wrinkles really gave me a lot of trouble. I ended up sculpting multiple passes deleting and re-sculpting the next day, but I think I benefited from the time I spent experimenting and studying it. Overall it was good practice and hope thi...

I ended up remaking the clothes just because it would be tedious to repose the t-meshed to its most accurate position and I'm pretty satisfied so far.
Shes supposed to have a wet look after being doused with a bucket of water. I may make the base that shes sitting on a big bucket, would mak...

Merged a lot of the sub tools together and dynameshed them to start getting a smoother more cohesive mesh. Fixing anatomy here and there, a lot of small subtle adjustments.
There are so many parts close together that I may not create too many seams for the modular parts, hoping to be 3-4 pi...

Finally decided on a pose I like, shes supposed to be drenched in water and of course the aftermath is Ranma and Ryoga turned into their secondary forms. There will be an empty bucket as a prop on the side. There are two leg positions as you can see. One she sits on the ground and another she wil...

Worked on the hair mostly this time around. All of those block in shapes were merged together into bigger chunks to make it flow better, more refinement will come later. Proportions started to feel off when I blocked in her clothes, some parts felt too thin and some parts felt too large. It's pro...
