Also considering doing a lightning varient. 

Nora Head - 3D

Decided to do a Nora head, thoughts? 

RWBY has no Women in Refrigerators

Hello again,

I'm back today to discuss the justly hated trope of fridging and how RWBY avoids, subverts and deconstructs it!

Thanks as always to my wonderful patrons for making these episodes possible, links below.

So, first.

What is fridging?

Fridging comes from Women in Refrigerators (WiR) which was coined in response to the Green Lantern vol. 3 #54 (1994), writt...

Back from Thailand - Weiss X JL Hair Model!

As the title says I am back from Thailand and I decided to knock the rust off modelling wise by improving my Weiss head shot with her JL hair style, thoughts? 

Jessica Cruz (Green Lantern) Head - Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes & Huntsmen

I've been working on this awhile and am pretty proud of it! 

Also gods this new Patreon update blows. 

Batman, The No Killing Rule & Troubles in Fandom:

Hello again, 

I'm back from my holiday and decided to jump head first into controversy by discussing a commo hot topic in the DC/Bat-Clan fandom. The no killing rule and the tension that sometimes exist between various fans over it.

The tension on this issue, if oversimplified, tends to manifest in people questioning why Batman doesn't kill or allow certain villains to die and ...

Vixen head - - Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes & Huntsmen

Been tinkering with this on and off and very pleased with the results! 

Cyborg 3D - Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes & Huntsmen

This has probably been my most complicated model, or at least up there in the top three, still quite pleased with the results though. I decided to try and go for a really dynamic pose based on the film. Any preferences on which are best? 

RWBY + DC - Cyborg

I've been tinkering with this model for awhile now, for some reason I can't get outlines to work but overall pretty pleased. I left off his tank top cos I am trying to convey abs, thoughts? 

Team RWBY (3D - Head Models)

I designed these so if/when I wanna do more RWBY models I don't need to start from scratch every time. The hair, especially Weiss's, will need some tweaking but these are just still starting points and can be changed or altered to fit whatever design I need. 

Channel Update

I'm still alive!

I am so sorry things have been so quiet, stuff came up in my editors life and things have been busy for me including a wrist injury which is really mucking me up. 

Production on the Bumbleby epic is going well and there should be a short RWBY episode coming out soon as well. Also I still have plans to do more DC stuff and more generalized stuff, its mostly a ma...

Sapphire/Sapphire Textured #2

I think I am finally done texturing, thoughts? 

Sapphir/Sapphire -Textured #1

Still need to fix the hair more but pleased with how things are going. 

I might turn the top into more of a vest, thoughts? 

Sapphir/Sapphire - Grey Scale #1

Getting her head right was a trial and a half but I got there. 

Sapphir/Sapphire - Grey Scale #1

Modelling an OC, possibly for a fan project, possibly for an original, this kids is versatile baby! 

The original concept art was done by the amazing: https://www.tumblr.com/fallinglikemagic

Alinta Final Render

Finally finished, sadly I can't render anymore videos for some nightmarish reason, but still quite pleased with the results. 

Though I made the arms too short again >< 

Alinta Rigged #3

I fnally figured out how to do eyes. 

Basically yes you need orbs (Mostly) 

You combine them into one object but still separate from the body. 

Then you bind them to the rig at the same time as you do the model. 

Alinta #3

Made a lot of progress today! 

Alinta Grey Scale #2

Hair and head sare such a pain, but I like how its coming together

Alinta Grey Scale #1

For those who have checked out Kyokujitsu, you may recognize the name, this is the protagonist Alinta in uniform, plus two of three of her weapons. I haven't done the head or hair yet cos I was getting tired, but quire pleased so far. 

Khopesh (RWBY OC) Complete

And here'd a demonstration. 

The texturing was done by https://twitter.com/Valoroth whom I heartily recommend.

Khopesh (RWBY OC) Complete!

I am finally done, I actually commissioned a texture artist to fiddle with these and I love the result!

The texturing was done by https://twitter.com/Valoroth whom I heartily recommend.

Khopesh (RWBY OC) #5

More or less finished at this point, I think I hit the ceiling of what my current skills allow for this concept. I rather like it. 

Khopesh (RWBY OC) #4

Changed the colors a bit, still need to pick a Cel Shader, and also figured out how to make the bow work, plus added some hieroglyphs, might see about changing their colors. 

Khopesh (RWBY OC) #3

Very much not the final texture but this helps distinguish aspects. I still need to get the bow string projectors position right but nearly there. 

Khopesh (RWBY OC) #2

I think I more or less settled on a design and a means of fueling it, huzzah! 

Khopesh (RWBY OC)

Fiddling with a RWBY OC and more to the point the weapon design, though I have a good idea ow it works, four weapons wassup! 

Deshret & Hedjet - the red & white crowns of the old kingdoms in Egypt.  When combined they create Pschent - The Double Crown
