Didn’t get much done on this since last time as there has been too much stuff to do. Entertainment was finding out just how little I know about how shoes go together.

Looking more like trackies at the moment but the base shape is done. Need to finish the collar and adjust the overlap and do some buttons and maybe pockets and things. This work by ryivhnn is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License

My neck was being annoying so I got even less done than usual. And I’m not really sure how the flow on the front is going to work out. This work by ryivhnn is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License

I rarely get as much done as I want each session but I was unexpectedly a LOT busier than usual. This was meant to be posted yesterday but shenanigans happened This work by ryivhnn is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License

As I’ve mostly been working on characters and outfits recently (or more specifically one character and one outfit) there hasn’t been a lot of room for the usual extremely dodgy looking and usually very random views that can come up when modelling humans. Or so I thought. I forgot to “apply base” on the multires sculpt before I started making the shirt so I actually made the shirt on top of the default proportions instead of the character’s proportions (a lot bigger) and inadvertently turned her into an adult movie actor.

Vaguely following along from the title of last year’s silly season shenanigan. These Blender versions are going way faster than I’m capable of. Last year (and possibly the year before that as well, just less recognised/acknowledged for whatever reason) there was some cyclical ridiculousness of trying to get things finished, either failing anyway or succeeding but at the cost of being much further behind on other things or being unable to finish them (major problem in the case of lesson plans!), and then rushing through trying to get those things finished, usually failing because there wasn’t enough time to do them in, and way too often sacrificing sleep as that was the only thing left that I could take time away from, and then having meltdowns because I was overtired and no matter what I did or how hard I worked or how carefully I planned, nothing ever got done anyway. I think it was mostly my useless excuse for a brain desperately wanting to work how it works best, as I know that when I can hyperfocus on something I can get an incredible amount done in the 8-12 hours that particular zone requires. Alas, alack, I need to pretend I’m a functional adult, and my poor brain will never get to operate in its optimal methodology ever again.
