I Don't Think The Post Above Is Following The Site Safety Plan. I'll Have To Note This For The OSHA Report.

I don't think the post above is following the site safety plan. I'll have to note this for the OSHA report.

Finally got around to making an outfit for engineering mode. Most of the time I'm just wearing slacks and a polo as a CAD monkey on a computer (or CAD otter, but my coworkers probably wouldn't understand), but on the few occasions I make a construction site visit or do a soil investigation, I look a bit more like this.

Also had fun with the idea of anthropomorphic safety, and realized that tails would be a liability with how they are behind the person. High vis straps on tails feels like the same as wearing the hard hat or high vis vest, just another layer of safety for something that could go wrong.

Learning Log: finally decided to tackle UV unwrapping. The vest is a UV unwrapped texture I made in Photoshop, so figuring out how to make it work here was nice. Definitely have much to learn there, but I'm glad to have finally dipped my toes into the UV wrapping side and actually have done something successfully.

i want to do UNSPEAKABLE things to that otter

who said that ..

Unspeakable? Well, when you find whoever said that, give them this and tell them to write it down next time! Much easier than trying to use unspeakable words!

That or show me! I love a good demonstration!

The Quicker Commute

"Teleporting is way faster than driving to work."

Not my best render, but I wanted to make something since I haven't made a render in a while. Been super focused on physical projects like the helmet and Armada ship painting and printing.

I'm remaking this comic strip now that I decided to-think the scale (and maybe just decided to model an entire house instead of just room-by-room so the comics can have a semblance of realism), so here's a couple of shots from the first take that I really like.

Decided to restart on the facial expressions, so hopefully the new 'surprised' face for Lye should look a bit more real than this one. I guess it looks better in comparison to the face she's making right before it of just talking.

Slight NSFW of Civil below the cut.

I swear this isn't one of those "I'm stuck, step-otter" kinda scenes. It's supposed to be a showcase of maybe a bad decision or two on Civil's part.

What emotion does this portray to you? I was going for that embaressed-but-trying-to-be-cool-about-it-and-failing kinda thing.

The Railroad Tracks

"I heard there was an accident here where a guy got his legs cut off by a train here. And apparently it happened like a hundred years ago, too!" said Civil

"The only accident I'm about to see is you accidentally getting tetanus. Get down from there." replied Lye.

Character-less render and minor spoilers below.

Well, this week I was sick with something like the flu so I had the time to make this render. A couldn't find the image from Echo that inspired me, but I remember it being there.

This scene from Leo's ending was absolutely just heart-stopping for a multitude of reasons. Can't imagine that specific variety of pain and agony, from the event to the next several hours of suffering.

However, I do have to say that the foreshadowing was on point. The novel almost made me think they were about to escape after all the trial and tribulation they had gone through, and then...yikes.

Anyways, I've neglected continuing through Flynn's path, so hopefully I'll soon figure out what horrible thing happens in that one!

Here's the render without Lye and Civ. It makes an okay screensaver.
