News

Hi everyone,

It's been a while and thought I'd give some kind of update.

I've been ill for the past two weeks or so and my job has been hellish as well so I haven't had much time or capacity to work on stuff since last release.

I still made some progress on a Lara Croft model but it's taking way longer than I expected because I'm not entirely satisfied with the quality of the ...

Spider Gwen Model Release

Edit v1.1 : improved weight paint around the crotch area

As voted on April's poll.

She has one outfit but lots of variations and customization that need some explaining :

_ 2 sets of eyelashes & eyebrows that can be selected from the extras section. One is from the original model, the other is the one I use on most models and higher quality

_ 2 eyes ...

Jacqueline Natla Model Release

Second model from the Tomb Raider franchise. She is Lara's nemesis from the older games.

She has 3 hairstyles (1 made by me) and 2 outfits. 

Outfits & hair quality is not awesome because of how old the model is. I've included undies & stockings from the outfit library though because it made sense for her office outfit.

Unified UI update 1.8.1

Reminder this is only for Blender 3.4+ ; support for Blender 3.3 is officially dropped.

This version fixes a bunch of stuff I noticed while working on an overview video of the models' features :

- soles blush now working correctly

- fix for the "hide hair armature" option which was hiding the main rig (again)

- fix for ears shapes not working correctly when changing shap...

Samantha Nishimura Model Release

First release from the Tomb Raider franchise. This is going to be a long run of at least two months as I'm planning quite a few models.

She has 1 outfit, 1 hairstyle and 2 face textures (dirty is from the game, the other one is me trying to clean her up).

Hair translucency & UI updates

Hair translucency

Following previous post, I've tweaked the hair translucency node a little which gives even better results and now works great for eevee.

In order, pics show : cycles v2 - v1 - off - eevee v2 - v1 - off

The node v2 is attached.

Hair translucency node & UI update

Hi everyone,

I've worked on a simple node setup that should improve hair by bringing some translucency.

Technically it works for both Cycles and Eevee but the results in Eevee are variable so it's mainly meant for Cycles.

The pics were taken with a strong area light behind the characters and a front point light at default brightness. Pics are after/before in that order.

The Woman In Red

It's been a while since I've finished a render. I've been working on a big scene for a few weeks but motivation is up and down so I'm not sure if I'll ever finish it. 

Meanwhile this one at least I could finish. Kinda inspired by The Matrix. The resolution is silly big because it was the only way to keep small details.

The last picture is blender's output before post editing as...

Issues with last UI update

Sorry but I've realized last UI update was broken.

If you installed it, please uninstall it. I've reuploaded the previous versions on gdrive so 1.7.0 for blender 3.4+ and 1.6.2 for blender 3.3.

I was trying to fix something and broke something else. Skin properties o...

And possibly the one after also, I'm unsure of the final range yet.

Misty Olszewski Model Release

Edit v1.1 : fix for the alternative textures to show in the UI after the UI rollback from yesterday 

She has 1 outfit, 1 hairstyle and 2 face textures (with & without lipstick - skin properties section). You can still add the UI lipstick on top of the no lipstick face if that makes sense...you'll understand when using it.

Also the eyes makeup is located in ...

Unified UI update

Small update to fix a bug with the alternative body texture detection. The UI stopped looking for alternative textures if it didn't find something on the first body material which wasn't intended.

That fix will be useful for the upcoming model.

I remind everyone that there are currently two versions of the UI depending on whether you use blender 3.3 or blender 3.4+. Both were update...

Edit v1.2 : update for normal maps & some useless texture files deleted (thx @Thiccboysteven for pointing it out)

She has 4 outfits, 2 hairstyles and 2 skin textures (scars/no scars).

For the battle outfit, the attachment with the gas tank will have to be tweaked using the bones on the armature's cloth layer.

Mainly untested as usual so bug reports are wel...

Unified UI update & support for blender 3.4+

Hi all,

Following the last post, here's a fix for the UI issues that come from both blender 3.4 & 3.5.

There are now two versions of the addon, one for 3.3 and one for 3.4+. Choose one or the other depending on which blender version you use.

I've included some minor fixes as well in both versions.

Versions are as such : UI 1.6.2 for blender 3.3 & UI 1.7.0 for ble...

Blender 3.4 & above break stuff

The stickied post mentioned that 3.4 might break stuff but now I know it does partly break the UI. 

I have decided to skip 3.4 entirely because I've heard and experienced only bad things about that release and it doesn't bring anything interesting to the table as far as I'm concerned.

I'll probably make the jump to 3.5 and update the UI at that moment but until then, 3.3 is adv...

Feedback time

Hi everyone,

I'd like to ask you a few questions to get your inputs on some stuff :

1. Should I add a naked preview for models' releases along with outfits ?

2. Would you want an overview of models' features ? Like a video showcase or else ? I have a feeling a bunch of features are unknown.

3. Do you use the outfit libra...

Chun-Li SF6 Model Release

This has to be the hackiest job I've done on a model, issues kept piling up. Hopefully she will be alright.

She has 1 outfit, 1 hairstyle

The diffuse texture doesn't have any color so I eyeballed it as best as I could. You'll have to tweak it manually if you think colors are off.

Shared textures V12 update

Hi,

@Innos reported there was a seam appearing on the legs when using the feet wrinkles so I've updated the shared textures with a fix.

It's far from mandatory and V11 is still valid but if you intend to use that wrinkle option, you might as well get the V12 update.

Mirabel Garlick Model Release

She has 1 outfit, 1 hairstyle (hair is incomplete without hat though), and 2 skins (with or without extra freckles, see skin properties - the preview is with extra freckles).

I gave some details to the outfit material so it looks less flat.

⚠️Be aware the shared textures have been updated so make sure to download the latest version

You can add custom properties to outfit meshes or "Extras" meshes yourself following these naming rules :

- Value node : "UI Float - " + whatever [goes from 0 t...

A poll about polls

Pollception !

Earlier this month I launched a new type of poll to allow you to vote for a model with 3 choices. The winner gets done in the month, the other two come back next month for another poll. No promise but that's the goal anyway and I'll limit this to simple models to keep up the pace.

In order to avoid models never winning and coming back forever, the votes requirements wi...
