Blender earns to be punched in the face like, YOUR JOB IS TO RENDER MODEL AND NOT TOUCH UV
I even removed material entirely to re do it, checked render AND GUESS WHAT? HAIR REFUSED TO BECOME SOLID COLOUR

Thirstday #WIP 13 "Balljoint Nika" ("Шарнирная Ника") original design by @nradiowave.bsky.social
UV's, yeah, look at them, do you see how exited i am?
Only dirty and boring UV work left.
2048x2048 resolution still gives very pixelated look, hair will be nightmare to optimize

Sunday WIP 11
We hate UV Editing in this household. A bit less because i found align Vertically/horisontally so i have nothing fun Nika related to show (Unrelated image attached: "MY ACVD Build").
I might have head textures ready for Thirstday

Adhesion on my printer demands to be kicked. IT UNSTUCK PETG MODEL FROM BED THREE TIMES THIS DAY ALREADY NO MATTER HOW MUCH I USE IPA ON BED

It's fun trying to use mouse when wheel commiting harakiri, not the mechanism THE CILLYNDER PART, hexagonal pattern became circle!
And my secondary mouse's mouswheel didn't worked, had to replace button

@nradiowave.bsky.social
Body is done with head and arms to be made

I Also made some arbitrary rig to see her poseability better

WIP "Balljoint Nika" ("Шарнирная Ника") original design by @nradiowave.bsky.social
Currently i have Left leg and a bit of body, i will start do joints in cad after the shell is complete
i'd like to work on model more but i'm on 3rd playthrough in Beyond Citadel
Trikholit
hmmm. maybe i should post things.
