Gonna be taking a mini break from the Rocket model. I wanted to get him ready for animation, but I’m of the opinion that certain things will have to be completely remade. He is ready for simple rendering stuff though, so here’s one. #3Dmodel #blender #ocsky

I haven't posted about the Rocket plush here, surprisingly, so in honor of one year of seeing the first pics of him, I'll do just that. He has kept me company ever since.

Here’s some art of one of my pseudorca OCs, Koharu. I hadn’t drawn her in a while, so I thought I’d take the opportunity to practice, since I’ve been making these simple character renders. #characterdesign #ocsky

Okay, I do have something Valentines Day themed. Here’s Nester with Valentines cosmetics. #characterdesign #animatronic

I thought I posted about Nester before, but that’s not the case at all, so here’s another in-universe fictional character for “Soul in The Machine”. He’s Yester Noon’s descendant. #characterdesign #ocsky #oc

Can I please stop hyperfixating on random obscure animatronics for once? It's always the characters that rarely get any attention. 😭😭😭😭

Here’s an illustration of a humpback whale, specifically one from the North Atlantic, since those are the whales who come here during migration. That and they’re the only baleen whales I’ve seen. #illustration #whale

The obligatory bonus post: Me messing around with Rocket’s face just because I wanna see the amount of expressions I can get from him even with his limitations. #oc #animatronic

Update on the little man: I didn’t do much today with the rig because I had to fix a bunch of stuff with the bones. The few new things I’ve done were adding some bones to the hair and zipper. #WIP #3dmodel

Thought I’d practice a walking pose with Vinyl. Rather than just have this be a png, I included a simple design in the background that fits their personality and interests. #characterdesign #oc

Don’t think I ever posted this here and if I have, it doesn’t hurt to see it again. Basically, I just like to think there’s YouTube videos about Rockets disappearance, all with different guesses to what happened, but completely wrong, since, well, Rocket is alive and no one knows that. #oc #lore

Bit of a bonus post: Rocket looking up at something. I’m legitimately impressed with how expressive he turned out. Keep in mind that his movements are limited. His smile is permanently sculpted into his mask, his eyebrows and eyelids only move up and down. #3Dmodel #WIP

Aight, the cat’s out of the bag. The reason there was no Rocket model progress for a bit was because I was sculpting a certain brain pilot. #craniumcommand

I’m getting super emotional. Look at him! I still gotta work on the weight painting and figure out how to keep the undershirt from clipping through the jacket, but otherwise, he is close to being done. #3Dmodel #WIP

Coming here to say that I love Buzzy for a different reason than anything to do with the animatronic. I love him because he’s kind no matter how people can be to him and he’s determined to do his job even when things get tough. He is more than “the animatronic that was stolen” to me.

Since I previously drew Pearl swimming, I thought I’d do the same with Tyke. #creaturedesign

I need more Cranium Command fans to talk to. There needs to be more Buzzy talk on this site. I am starving. I also wanna see more fanart pls. Being one of the few who frequently posts about it is both a blessing and a curse.

Haven’t posted about the Rocket model in a while and probably won’t for a bit, because I’m focusing on other things at the moment, but here’s some screenshots of stuff I did this week. I remade his mask, eyes and eyelids. I’ve also been working on the armature.

Update: I’m actually getting better really fast. I thought it would just get worse today, so my workflow shouldn’t be that affected.

Haven’t drawn Captain Cortex that much lately, so here’s a new drawing. Sorta tried to go for a 50s look with some aspects of the Wonders of Life Pavilion. #craniumcommand

Howdy, just wanted to let y’all know that I won’t be posting about the Rocket model for a while, because I’m going through the process of rigging him and it’s a bit complicated. Also, I’m sick, so 2d art uploads might slow down depending on how I feel.

If there's one thing I love more than Obscure EPCOT characters. It's 'Canned' EPCOT characters. Here's a doodle of the never realized Mackerel character of the Living Seas. Sort of an Aqua-based Figment. Not perfect but done quickly. To read more on this guy click the link below.

Never posted anything about Specter here, but here’s a redesign anyway. They’re another alien character within the same universe as Pearl, Tyke and Loki, but they’re intended to be part of a spin off. #creaturedesign

Practicing on making my cetacean OCs more stylized with Guillaume. #characterdesign

Getting the temptation to draw Godzilla, but the sucky thing is that I gotta pick the design I like the most. Though part of me would like to do a different interpretation.

Getting close to finishing the little man. #WIP #3dmodel

Current progress on the Rocket model: I’m almost done adding my own shaders to him. The only things missing now are the camera details, which are separate objects. After that, I will get back to modeling the stuff that’s missing and polishing certain details.

submitted 34 days ago • 0 comments

So um... about that shader... I figured out wtf was wrong... I didn't enable contact shadows. I'm just gonna ignore Blender for a bit. I'm happy that I got it right, but pissed that I wasted time suffering when I could've clicked on one thing. #WIP #3dmodel

I have one thing to say: Godzilla

Current progress on the Rocket model: I’ve decided to try making my own toon shader. So far, I’m just experimenting with his mask’s material before I’m ready to use it on other objects. The shader I downloaded was really good, but there are certain elements from my style that it couldn’t do. #WIP

Decided to make a quick drawing of Pearl swimming. I think it would be nice to just practice certain poses with my characters instead of making a whole painting. #alien #characterdesign

Welp, it’s official, Godzilla is a new hyperfixation.

Don't recall If I ever posted anything about Loki here, but here's a redesign. He's the third main alien OC I have. #creaturedesign

Some more progress on the Rocket model. I’ve added the details on his cameras. I also modeled the hat, well, at least the placeholder for it. I’ll make different one. This is just to see how everything looks. Also, I’m redoing some of the hair. #WIP #3dmodel #animatronic
