Today I spend a few hours cleaning up my primary avatars blender project.
It's been getting a bit messy with multiple copies of the mesh in various collections, some are backups of older versions, others set up for various exports for specific applications like substance painter.
I've basically parked the work I was doing trying to make the rig follow more normal human proportions for the time being and fallen back to a older mesh which I've updated a little bit with a few more blendshapes I needed for VRChat and some optimizations.
While I was at it I got my textures working in blender again and set up the shaders, which allowed me to do a could of renders.
A quick little thing I set up to test it out.
I'm not really good at doing renders in blender yet, there is so much more I could do with the shaders and lighting. maybe even make an environment, something to learn when my brain is working better.
I eventually took the time to put together a ref sheet which basically allows people to create artwork of my OC if they so feel like it.
I also needed something for people to reference if I wanted to commission any artwork, I'd like get refsheet done by a particular artist eventually.
I made sure to include info and rules around drawing my character, Gotta set those boundaries otherwise who knows what people might do.
It's pretty scuff and hastily put together but it does work for now.
