#when it comes to modelling

[sunnys-sunflowers]

Drawing Transformers is hella hard and I commend all who draw them so beautifully.

One tip if you’re struggling with transformers anatomy: 3D model your favourite TFs based off of comics, shows, your own fanart, etc.

It sounds hard, and it is, but it isn’t as hard as you think. Ever since I’ve started modelling Rodimus Prime in Blender, I feel like I have a good grasp of his anatomy, perhaps better than just looking at comics or shows for reference. Plus, at the end you got your own version of your favourite transformer(s) to play around with and even animate!

Modeling is tedious at times, and you might get frustrated, but take your time and have fun.

Note: tbh I’ve only started this project because @starheavenly beautifully modelled him in Blockbench. Blender didn’t like it when I tried to transfer it over. Roddy was missing his shoulders, lower legs, spoilers, etc… so I’m slowly modelling all that in my free time.

Here’s the link to the Blockbench model @starheavenly made of him: Rodimus Prime

“things were so hard with dad in recent years...how did he go from paparapluie to père? i wish i could face him and understand, but while he was still here i didn't dare try to tell him [any of my feelings] and now...it's too late.” * paparapluie is a pun on the words papa and parapluie (umbrella) since the plush is a frog. père is the french word for 'father.'

*Breaks into your house to stare wistfully out the window* Do you ever think that CTHenry is, at least by some perceptions, a corpse being kept alive by gold dust and the whimsy of a goddess whose motives are unknown? I do. *Puffs on bubble pipe* Anyway. I'm still holding out hope for a happy ending for our Miserable Train Gays. Iram gentlemen. Have a good day 💗

This comic from a 1926 Punch magazine delights me (note that each picture depicts the decade it's decrying in the text, not the one it's glorifying)

it's very true- every decade tends to believe that NOW we've really achieved Peak Fashion, and has for a very long time

you think that Kishiar and Keilusa are so different until Keilusa gets to interact with Faria and you get faced with the fact that these people are actually 2 cheeks of the same ass.

Okay you GOTTA share ur thoughts on the raz models now im curious

i hope this wont be too long of a post i have a bit to say.

starting off, here's a model edit i did.

They just changed too much with his face proportions. It puts me off, as someone who really likes the pn1 model.

the changes are so subtle you may not even realize what i exactly changed. elaboration under Read More.

this is gonna be so opinionated. haha. but i really dont like his pn2 model. it just looks freaky(in a bad way) and doesn't look good from many angles. its just like, ugly(bad way).

this is hard to say with pictures only but i'll try to say the main things that doublefine changed and that i put back. I'll go over some specifics but here,

Maybe treat this as a "can you spot it" list.

his new model has his eyes too far apart. Or they're too big. They need more space inbetween his outer helmet and eye corners. *

In his pn1 model the eyelids are thicker. they're a lot thinner in the 2nd.

his EYE SHAPE changed *

his helmet moves with his eyebrows *

His eyebags/dark circles are less pronounced or may not even be present in the 2nd.

Made his nose slightly bigger(?) (not a big deal, just noticed it.)

His eyebrows are more kempt and are pushed farther from the middle *

head is less square. helmet sides need to be pushed in more.

Nose bridge is less defined *

He has more, face fat?

His general face expressions also contribute to the off-look. He's not able to look angry? Or they just don't push it hard enough. A lot of raz's resting expressions in pn2 just have him look worried. Or like a kicked puppy. Don't really get it.

And none of these are particularly heinous things to do. but all together just creates a whole new Raz.

A lot of those changes come from the change in artstyle/art direction. Which i'm also not a fan of!!

And pictures are hard to provide because with Psychonauts models, no two pictures look the same for some reason. So something i listed previously may be present. These are just traits i listed to myself while trying to find some notable difference.

Why did they do this. It looks freaky. Making an already freaky character look needlessly weird.

I have quite a bit to say on other characters too. They contribute to the reason why I'm not a fan of the Pn2 models.

Hope they're clear to see. The pics are a bit dark.

Unlike Sasha and Lili these two can handle rounder edges without much detriment.

Milla's Pn2 model isn't that offensive but I still do think its the worst one. Its all down to preference on if you prefer Pn1's chilled look or every other more expressive model. Like Ror's. That model looks great, i can't imagine diversifying away from that look.

Milla and Raz both benefit from having their faced a little squished in. Examples of the Pn2 Raz model looking a bit better:

See, he actually looks kind of angry there. I like how he looks in these.

Wanted to add that Sasha and Milla both previously did not have eyebrows in Pn1 but gained them in Pn2.

No more pictures. But extra extra note, all of their colors got lighter/changed in some way. why

Starscream but as that one Saul Goodman picture

I put way too much effort into this like why did I shade it?!?

Edit: I put him in the picture

OBVIOUSLY there's no "canon" azem/azem name beside what little glimpses of them we've been privy to, and even then it's like, basically hearsay at this point and for a really good reason and that's an awesome idea and i love it

HOWEVER, the fact argos exists at all is a STRONG point in favor of the "azem is canonically odysseus coded" theory. what if you had been sent away to fight and you got lost and kept wandering and ending up in weird situations and basically losing your mind and were known for being cunning and tough and good with people and with a lot of hidden skills and you were called The Traveler. and then when you managed to get back home again only your dog still remembered & recognized you. what then

(it's NOT a 1:1 equivalence okay it's about the symbolism. you understand)
