Fellas - TF2/Blender
Sudden burst of enthusiasm got me to make a new poster with concept which I've wanted to release some time ago. I thought that it would be really nice to take all my mercs loadouts from the game and turn them all into complete & separate characters (and put them together in the poster, yeah). You can see Dell, my engi OC, here too. It's definitely not my best artwork, but I was just working with the cool concept from my head, not extra fancy stuff or whatever people want to call it "amazing". I've enjoyed to work with poses & rim lights here the most. ๐ท
Two free art-commissions (requests) done for Sapper and Kandi.

The Whispering Pines - TF2/Blender
Outside the civilized world, in the untouched northwestern forests of North America, not every traveler dares to stop for a rest within these dark coniferous thickets. Due to disturbing legends from hereditary loggers who lived on these lands with their families for centuries, over the years this region has developed a not so clean reputation. Starting from urban tales about the โritual burials of sectariansโ and ending with folk tales from local residents about certain โforest entities,โ this taiga often becomes a place of disappearance for many enthusiastic researchers, but much less often - a quiet place for ordinary travelers to relax. Would a group of tired, recently fired from Mann Co. mercenaries dare to stay here longer?

"Meet the Dell" - Original Character Showcase Vol. 1
Born in Bee Cave, Texas in 1940, even as a child young Dell showed signs of unimaginable genius in the fields of engineering, mathematics and physics. A benevolent and good-natured American, but at the same time vengeful and always purposeful on the path of killing his enemy by any means (even if not by his own hands, but by the forces of his ingenious buildings & devices) the specialist immediately came to the attention of the director of Mann.Co in the first place. By that time, Dell was no longer surprised by his work responsibilities and difficulties, having 11 PhD's from a variety of scientific fields & long engineering practice in West Texas mines. If you still think that it is bloody impossible to expect anything serious from this low middle-age man in a silly green cap, who is telling corny dad jokes to cheer up his mates... If you think that you have right to insult an' blaming him for fun: as Dell said by himself once, when pulled up his fully-loaded shotgun in fullfiling rage - "๐๐ต๐ข๐ณ๐ต ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ข๐บ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ, ๐ฃ๐ฐ๐บ!". "๐ ๐ต๐ฐ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐บ๐ข ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฏ'๐ต ๐ต๐ฐ๐ถ๐ค๐ฉ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ฅ๐ข๐ณ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ."
Big Dreamer - TF2/Blender In 1977 the voted my city the most dangerous place to live in America. Main issues? Sky high rate of weaponries selling, corporations taked control over the government, rapid tech progress and highest unemployment over the world. Can't deny it - it's all true! But everybody still wants to live here. After Mann Co. monopolised all country's manufactures with not so civil methods, its don't need mercenaries no more - they all already fired! Their job is done! But now you and them need to choose wisely - promises in Mann City easily might be a lie, an illusion. But it's there... Just around the corner... And it keeps you going. ๐๐ต'๐ด ๐ข ๐ค๐ช๐ต๐บ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฎ๐ด. ๐๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐'๐ฎ ๐ข ๐๐๐ ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ณ... https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3161156077
On The Firewatch - TF2/Blender
"After the dramatic collapse of Mann Co in 1977, many mercenaries were forced to wander away from the corporate squabbles of competing weapons monopolies in big cities. Only in the virgin forests of North Australia, most likely not amenable to scientific study, Scout find a safe place for a multi-month firewatch. In the National Experimental Park (opened in dense pine forests without government request), Saxton Hale saw the false prospect of continuing a dying family business under the guise of a nature reserve. Jeremy, a former scout from Saxton Hale's ward, is forced to stay here for the next 7-8 months, waiting for boxes of food supplies, wild flames in the trees and at least some leisure time besides the boring introverted routine of his old, slightly rotten watchtower.

"๐Drinks and Spooktacular Spirits๐ป" - A Supernatural Halloween Bar - TF2/Blender
Spooky mythical bar with spooky supernatural monsters-customers, what appears only at 31th October every 12 years with veeeeeery small chance. (late posting bc I only registered on Tumblr, poster is from October, 2023).
At The Gun Shop - TF2/Blender
Far from the bustle of the city and the eternal stupid confrontations between weapons corporations, not everyone is destined to come across this mythical shop, where every honest and respected mercenary can try his luck with an equally mythical old man-seller, and improve his equipment to the highest level of work. Come on, have you ever encountered anything more mythical and scientifically inexplicable than the fabulous appearance of this old man (continuing the family business of his great-great-grandmother) in his grubby, but still just as cozy (and a little foul-smelling) little shop? ๐๐ฆ๐ญ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ! ๐๐ฆ๐บ, ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ช๐ด ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ท๐ข๐ญ๐ถ๐ข๐ฃ๐ญ๐ฆ: ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ฐ๐ณ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ญ๐ช๐ง๐ฆ, ๐ธ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ณ?
A 3d model I made in Blender and then switched to PS to paint it over, I really hoped it would be easier but it took longer than I expected ;-; Sorry if the cat doesn't look too good, I made it super fast. What do you think about the light? I try to do a more exagerated light and contrast.
Another practice to do 3d models :3 This time a found a tutorial on how to edit the UV map when adding texture to a 3d object, wich is really useful, I proably will use it in future projects. I'm also glad my computare didn't die in the process XD, because instead of using Eevee I used Cycles, and that seems to be a lot of work for my computer :") I edited abit the light and shadow in PS, the one on the left is the PS edit, and the one on the right is the final unedited render. If you have any advise or feedback, is welcome ^^
Im doing a blender course, and one of the modules was about making a Dinosaur. I... went a bit off topic, and made a fully dragon Ariel. The first time I accidentally set the rendering with cycles to use the cpu, and it gave me a remaining time of 4hs, lol.
Make a Plush Step 1: The Model
So, i decided to make an Helioptile plush cause, well, the guy needs more love, and i have a PMD D&D character, so yea. Also! I found a pattern for it by Diffeomorphism! but, unfortunately, it was one of their first attempts and the result was a bit... underwhelming (It was their first pattern, they got really good at this) So I started wondering... why don't I make my own pattern?
I found this awesome site called Plushify, that can create patterns just by uploading an UV unwrapped 3d model. Hey, i made that donut tutorial on blender, and i watch Captain Disillusionment... that kinda makes me an expert on blender! I can totally do that! Lets me just grab an already rigged model from Model Resources:
Fine, lets pose it and use the edit tools to cut and them mark as seam the eyes and other lines so i can cut it on different materials and... done!
Man, this is so easy! Now, to UV Unwrap! The process is a bit hard to underestand at first, you grab the 3d object and cut it and present it as a 2d plane... If you have seen a Skin for Minecraft or a source engine npc texture, then you are gonna understand how it works. You also need to add extra cuts so it bends right and has a good shape after sewing, and some other concerns. Its a bit hard to put in paper, but if anyone wants me to talk about how i cut this, send me an ask and I'll make a post!
Anyway, i do papercrafts, thats basically UV unwrapping in reverse, right? yea this is gonna be so easy!
Wait, no...
oh heck no... third times the charm!
OH SHIP NO!
THEEEERE WE GO! Again, i suck at explaining this, but if you want some help on how to do this, let me know! It did take me a couple of days and some tries tho, this is the 6th and final revision
I even printed some patterns before realizing some error I made, but yea, once done, export an OBJ file and you are ready to upload it into https://plushify.net! I talk about this on the next step
Intro | Next ->
About a week or two ago, I started studying the blender and one of my works was this Rusty collar after the battle with the Longtail!
It's still far from ideal and not even that close to what I wanted and there are a lot of disadvantages here, but I can be glad that I did it absolutely without tutorials and auxiliary videos, + in this work I used curves and "grass" for the first time (even if it is poor)
