Ellowas playing Santa

Hey there
Nothing new from my side, but I wanted to share something with you.

Everyone of you who is uptodate with good 3D artists and work will know the great and mighty Ellowas, and they will allready know that he has returned with a big bang.
If you didn't know, check out his wonderfull animation of the beautifull Widowmaker.

Now he got even more generous by providing his hard work of perfected 3D model to the rest of us mere mortals.

For me it is a perfect way to learn how a good retopo should look like and may try her for my own animations once I understand the basics of rigging in blender.

I finally got the model at least imported correctly within blender (which should normally be no problem with FBX, but see for yourself.....)


Just so don't have the same problems: Blender version 2.71 and before seems to work.
These versions can at least import the mesh correctly.
I will go to sleep now and look at the topo and everything else tomorrow or when I got the time.
But at least I can rest easy, now that I saw her correct in all of her beauty.

Cheers


Edit:
I just realized I didn't get the rig which is within this file, but the FBX importer with Blender 2.71 seems to not support it....
If I open it with FBX exporter from Autodesk, it looks fine in there, but I don't get it to work properly with Blender...
Arg this is driving me crazy....
This aaaaaaaaand major bluescreen problems, which just appeared yesterday....
FUCK! Will I ever have no problem appearing with this pc for more than two fuckings months...?

Explanation

Hey everyone.
I wanted to post something months ago, but during the week I am so exhausted when I come home and I put if off again and again and again.
It has been nine months now since the last post, which is an incredible long time for you guys, but for me time was just passing by. Not really in the good - "Oh yeah, I have so much fun"- way. Rather - "Oh damn, I have so much to do"- way.
My days got into boring routine: Go to work in the morning, working 7-11 hours, coming back, checking stuff like HF and go to sleep, sometimes playing a bit of Tera, but that's it.
At the weekends I am trying to do a bit of 3DX with Poser and trying to learn stuff with Blender, so I can switch completely to it for my 3DX.

I had a big motivation downtime because of my pc.
You may remember the problems I had with it shortly after buying. Well it got even worse.
But to sum it all up: in the two (well, less than two) years of owning, I had to work with just one graphic card for more than 8 months, one was allways in repair, plus more than 2 months completely without any working pc. So all my motivation went down, because everytime I wanted to start something, the pc was broken somehow....
I got it hopefully fixed now. But "fixed" isn't the right word for it. I had to invest another big amount of money to make it work. Which also required a big load of work and nerves to deal with.

So I was basicly just too lazy to post anything, because it needed some brain-activity, which I couldn't spare.
Because of that I lay all my Patreon plans and whatsoever on ice, because it means keeping things updated and do social networking, advertising and stuff. I just can't handle it right now.
If was doing this fulltime, I could make it happen, and a lot of cool stuff would come from this. But it is just a hobby of me and right now, I don't find enough time for it.
On the other hand, if I demand money for it, I may be more motivated, because it brings me money xD.
I will think about that. I definitly need a plan for it to work out properly.

BUT, yes there is a promising butt...
But I am still working on 3DX, because I love making it.

I just can't do it as often as I want to and I am also not often satisfied with the results or the possiblities Poser gives me.
Poser is a great tool and a lot of artists like the awesome Erogenesis do great stuff with it, but I am not investing more time into it. I am concentrating on Blender.
But for a lot of questions, I can't just ask my normal friends with Blender knowledge: "Hey man, how can I make a rig for nude figures, where the vagina will spread correctly?"
Or: "Damn, I've got all these awesome nude figures for SFM, but I want them to use in Blender, but the importer doesn't work well. Do you have any idea to solve this?"

Help is a bit rare for these specific tasks.
I know that some 3DX artists are using Blender as well, and some SFM Modder work with Blender as well. I need to find and contact them somehow, maybe I will get the help I need.

When I am through with a retopo of the the castanic game figures, I also want to get in contact with Ellowas, who is a great rigger and animator with Maya and 3D Max.

Sadly Blender is a bit out-of-date when it comes to import games files.
It may can export Unreal files without problems, but the import script is old as shit and still "in progress" (which haven't been touched for more than 2 years).
Unreal animations doesn't work, but at least importing the meshes is working "ok"...
(Still bugs with bones and postioning, but that can be fixed easily)


But I got this beauty without triangles and with a rig, that suites my needs (and other needs). together with the armors attached, it will be awesome to animate with Blender, and build up scenes on my own.

Blender would even give me the tools to make 360 degrees videos for your Oculus.
I have done that for other content, and it would be awesome.
Maybe even interactive with Unity.
I was working with Unreal Engine 4, which is also free, but they are not quite as good for VR than Unity.

But that's still future talking for my 3DX as long as I don't have everything working in Blender.


That's how it is now.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I will try to respond as soon as possible, but please don't be frustrated if it takes some time.
I could use an assistant to handle all that. Female, good looking, beeing perverted as I am, in Germany... anyone?.... no one?... damn...

It's blowing... I mean glowing in the dark

Happy Halloween:
Be warned, it's with sound!


She was out doing some: "Trick or Treat".
Fooling some humans, provoke some gnomes or angering some Orcs.
She loves to infuriate them at each other and seeing them rend their armor asunder.
Usually she never gets caught after her tricks, but seeing these thick, green orc cocks gleaming in the candle light of their jack-o-lanterns, she thought it was time to get her treat.

The enraged orcs fucked her for hours until she was covered with their hot semen all over her body dripping out of hole they ravaged.
They must have eaten a lot of that magical candy, because their sticky juices were glowing... and it tasted delicious.
She decided to have another serving of that sweet, hot desert, stuffed down her throat with this thick, hard and pulsing member of that orc.

Edit:
I would have thought that people would be more excited about videos with sound again.
A bit disappointing.

Korra and plate armor

Hey there
Working with Blender slowly get some results. Right now I am looking for tutorials to make clothes for poser in blender and rig them in poser.
But let me show you my castanic lancer first.



She sure doesn't ride any mount. If she got the chance for a legendary, everything else has to wait.



Handling her weapon isn't the only reason why she is called a lancer...




After christmas I made myself a present and bought a new hair from Ali which looks just a little like the hairstyle of Korra and I tried to make my own 3D Korra model
I am not happy with the face yet,  but I wanted to show you my private Korra

Happy New Year

Hi everyone.
It may be a bit late, but I hope you had some nice hollidays and 2015 started well for you.

I had a difficult time at the end of 2014 and 2015 didn't start any better.
A lot to do. I am at work from dawn to dusk and even at weekends.
Good thing is I am getting better with Blender, bad thing, I don't have much time for Poser and I still have issues with my pc, which is now way too loud to let it run over night, while trying to sleep beside it. The pc seems to finally run properly. Wow, finally.... after one year of downtimes again and again... (the pc was completely new and not cheap)
But to keep it from overheating again, the service set the chasis fans on maximum all the time...
And I said in detail before purchasing, that I need a render pc that is as silent as possible.
50-60db? That's not silent.
Besides these troubles, which are slowing me down, I am also fighting a flu for a month now, since I didn't cured it before christmas because of stress getting another project done.
The more I want to expand my blog, the more problems appear.
We will see what 2015 will bring us.
So far I hope I can give you a little pleasure with the posted picture.
But I also have again a small update on the old "Wilderness" animations before Octane




A quick question at the end:
What do you think about me putting my video clips on patreon but without the watermark and WITH sound?
With the method per uploaded video, not per month, of course. You see how rare I post lately.
Every video would still be posted here for free, but just as it is now, without sound and with the watermark.

How does this sound? Fair? Not fair? Would that be something some of you are interested in?

Give me your thoughts about that.
If it seems good, I would spend these endless hours to finally organize my sound fx library again and add some pepper.

Cheers
