I’ve committed to the new road: skinnier and snaking further away from the cliff side. Also added some trees.

I wish I had a more interesting “surface” for the road, but unless I find a crafty solution, anything else will expose the dozen of prim seams that I’ve hidden in the surface.

I’ve adapted the cuffs to fit the elbows, did some scripting and configuration and also put together the HUD face.

I have some issues with the clickable areas… they need some… adjustment. As it is, it’s too hard to click the D-rings in my opinion.

And yes Atsumi, this pose already exist 😛

I finished preparing all the textures and I think the model is final at this point.

So here are a few teaser pictures 🙂

Still unfinished obviously.

And I still don’t have an actual name for them…

Yesterday I couldn’t resist tweaking the strap edges furter and came up with something more faithful to the original. Then most of the time spent yesterday and today involved low-polygon modeling, some unwrapping and this test render (at a stupidly large resolution).

I need a little break from working on the shoin school uniform so I picked something simple like… (NSFW) A very specific leather cuff design.

Yeah, the highpoly model is basically done already. It went so fast! It might be related to the unhealthy amount of leather cuffs I’ve modeled over the past years 😛

Yes it looks a bit weird but that’s because it’s not actually rigged to the avatar, I’m just pretending.

It’s also horribly blurry because I haven’t packed the texture UVs yet. I wanted to run some kind of test to see how well the normal mapped model would do in its current state.

Oh yeah, I still haven’t finished the belt either.

Back is sort of okay, the right side has too many triangles (non quad). Collar is tweaked to fit the right side of the collar mesh.

I’ve also built a semi decent elbow for the sleeve. The top part if the sleeve is still shit.

Not sure about the wooden support structure, but this looked good enough for a picture right?

More optimization required… more.

Also yeah this sleeve attempt is garbage too.
