More experimentation and learning...

Food 👏 for 👏 thought 👏

Not sure if anyone else has experimented with this but I feel like could be a fun concept to play with.

I highly recommend tinkering with these models. Feel free to rip them apart, retexture or do whatever you like with them. [ Had a play with retexturing. one day I'll learn sound design... ]

For me: it's improving at blender.

For everyone else: it's a free model to do what ever you like with.

I will once again link this for everyone: www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8J_...

This doesn't cover the hook & curve modifier technique these snake models use but this cause was eye opening to a lot of rigging.

previous model:

Muwhahaha!

Scales are on her face. But i've tried to blend them a bit with the smoother underside.

[WIP] Guess who's got scales... (normal maps done)

[WIP] Once again had to redo the mouth blendshapes but also been messing with adding subtle face controls (nostrils, eyebrows, nose wrinkles, etc). Also lighting and trying to get faster render times.

Did I model most of a bathroom for this single render? yes... yes i did lol.

Did some model cleanup today. But I feel like I've forgotten something...

Did a quick model of a couch, then dumped a sculpt based on the amazing art by @tacokurt.bsky.social of the anaconda onto it. I think it might be her couch now...

Did a doodle of a couch, then dumped @snek3d.bsky.social anaconda onto it. Is it her couch now or what you do?

[WIP] How are we feeling about 11m? (about the length of a bus). I also might rework the body normals to be more like the original.

it's on the todo list. Originally i wasn't going to add but I don't want to remove a feature which was in the previous model.

I really wanted to keep her original expression but still have full range with mouth movements. It's a lot of shapekeys and delta /correct shapekeys.

Unlike the previous model, i also wanted this one to only use one armature for everything. No need to switch out between body & facerig.

[WIP] Progress is slow but in the process of turning her into a full model...

This was from scratch, I think because I use the same eyelid technique they sorta have a similar style.

Made a prequel here to give this a bit more context:

Hopefully this should give a bit more context what I was trying to convey in the original.
