Getting closer and closer with this project but there's still a bunch of little things to fix and then I really want to get some videos rendered out - will I get it done before the end of the year? 👀

Pushed the contrast on the face textures tonight and dialled down the SSS... now wondering if I need to pull it back a bit?

Made a rough back drop this weekend that does enough to make my character look like she's in an actual world

Halloween archery means shooting fun sized bags of sweets. Most motivated I've been in a while 😂

OK, so TDR was the main culprit but I keep getting GPU crashes even when bringing the settings waaaaay down, so I think I'm just gonna stop with path tracing for now... Also, wtf is the SSS

Really want to keep playing with Path Tracing in UE5 but my GPU keeps crashing when I try to make an actual render 😭 Works mostly fine in the viewport though which means I can see what I'm missing out on... I don't want to spend my evenings troubleshooting :(

✨ Happy #PortfolioDay! ✨
I'm Leah and I make hair for games! I've spent a chunk of this year digging into more character stuff so I might actually manage to update my portfolio by December!

Back to playing with poses whilst I procrastinate a bunch of other stuff... I thought I could get away with some of the skinning, but looks like I'll have to get back into weight paint :(

OK, the more I look at it the more I actually like this, so made some tweaks and I do actually like it now

I still don't like the hair I made for this character so plugged in one I made a few months ago - super easy with metahuman base meshes! I don't think this is the right look, but it's closer to what I'm feeling. I'm now thinking a loose, messy bun

And just when I was getting on so well with Unreal, I/it fucks up my skinning... I just want rigid body physics!!!

Finally got around to making a lightsaber (hilt) and ended up texturing in Marmoset Toolbag 5. I've only dabbled in Marmoset texturing before but honestly, this was super straight forward and I especially love the vector layers. I'm sure I'm missing stuff, but I'm pretty happy with this, for now!

New tattoos and some really messy hair sketches. I had moved away from the mohawk but I keep drawing it...

Can't remember if I said on here, but I was handed these 2 goobers the other week. They'll go for their check up and vaccines next week and then hopefully go up for adoption!
