Red WIP - wings, tail, hands...kinda...

• AEfter Ragnarok

Wings are more or less done.

I say “more or less” because I was spending a very long time obsessing about the edges of the wing membranes, and then figured I should just make sure they’re thick enough to retopo around and not obsess about that kind of thing too much. So I did that for the two inner membranes (I obsessed over the two outer ones before making this realisation) and made sure the wing fingers were more or less symmetrical on either side and easily visible to retopo over.

Tail paddle was relatively easy, except that I cannot for the life of me figure out how to reset primtives (the reset button doesn’t work). Used a 5x5 patch and wrangled it into shape. The hardest thing was getting the scale right. Not really looking forward to doing the character that has a morningstar on the end of theirs.

HANDS ARE MY NEMESIS. Doesn’t matter what the medium. Decided the best thing would be to do claws out for retractable claws (even though the hands are in a relaxed position so it’s a bit nonsensical). Index finger is still getting worked on. It’s close to done but you know what they say about the last bit. The other three fingers have had no work whatsoever hence the ridiculous blockiness.

Will tackle feet and my other nemesis, the mouth insides after this and then can get onto painting (yay!) and rigging (not yay) and hair (…) and then I can play around with posing/animating rendering, YAY ^_^
