Auauaugh I didn't want to copy this one over from Tumblr because I feel it aged poorly and I don't like it, but it's the first really complicated and long-term 3D modeling project I finished, so it's important to the archive.
Original Description:
Aaaaa, this project took forever. Making his hair out of continuous topology was A Mistake.
I’m still new to 3D modeling (I started in late September 2017), and one problem I keep having is that I’m learning faster than I can progress through projects. So I either have to redo stuff several times or live with my mistakes. I chose to live with my mistakes on his hair, and it bit me in the ass in several ways. :’D
I should have done way more detail painting on the texture. :1c Everything looks too smooth, and his mouth doesn’t pop out well enough. Live and learn, I guess.
I’m eager to move on to my next project and apply all that I learned from this one!
