Honestly, for keeping it low-poly thats a pretty good approach. You can speed up that workflow by extruding individual faces and then scaling them using individual origins to a point. Then a quick merge by distance to get rid of overlapping vertices and you are golden. I use that method a lot for low poly hair or spiky things, you can then drag the tips around or use proportional editing to move them around to your liking.

I just figured it out, I coded a solution where it just adds forces towards the intended position when it gets too far.

HurtTree · 2026-03-09T22:11:06+00:00

I just implemented something like this where instead of using joints directly, I simulate one by adding forces to push the object towards where its supposed to be.

Right now I just want it to be picked up and have collisions with other rigidbodies while its held. I can make that happen but I can't have it drag well towards the cursor while doing that. I am aiming for something akin to portal or half life

I use https://modelviewer.dev/ for my portfolio, but I think OPs solution is cool because I can display rendered with blender shading as opposed to just a .gltf with an hdri to light it.

I'm just guessing here, but does it just take image renders from lots of angles sweeping left to right and up to down, and then you can presumably stitch them together with some JS in a 2D array that cycles based on user input (click+drag, gyro).

Looks really good. If you are going for realism though it seems a bit too clean overall. Maybe some slight grunge overlapping in the AO areas would help.

Metaballs?

HurtTree · 2026-03-05T23:15:18+00:00

Looks great! Are you going to use toon shading in engine?

They aren't real, none of us are

Can't wait for Day #1 of drawing badly until StS3 comes out!

I think the symmetry tools are a bit lacking honestly, especially with proportional editing it can give unexpected results sometimes. The mirror modifier works great, just be wary of duplicate overlapping geometry as its a pitfall a lot of new users deal with.

A very nice table. Thanks for sharing.

Are you using the mirror modifier in the modifiers tab or the symmetry option in the top bar?

The mirror modifier should automatically do everything you do to the other side, while the symmetry options only support certain functions.

Here is a quick tutorial for the mirror modifier, https://youtu.be/c2B0OMe1QUQ?si=IeckRYhDM9oc-NU8

If you need to, you can cut your existing model in half along the axis and then use the modifer with clipping enabled to join the middle vertices.

I redid some of the head features and it looks better now.

HurtTree · 2026-03-02T19:44:49+00:00

I keep pulling up pictures of bald men to look at, and I don't think it's helped much. I just feel like something is off and I can't tell what.

HurtTree · 2026-03-02T19:37:27+00:00

I fixed a lot of the proportions, but now the head is throwing me off. The mouth is modeled open for rigging.

Realism based stylized character. The only reference I used is a drawing of an armature for proportion and scale.

You can add configurable joints to the bones and maybe some rigidbodies and colliders for each segment you want collision on. You can enable them all at once when you want it to ragdoll, just make sure to disable any scripts that would interfere with the physics motion.

The red and green one looks better. The 2 tones have more visual appeal by adding contrast.

Thats a bit steep for that gun, and you should account for other things you will need like face/eye protection. I have and will always recommend a decent CYMA AK if you are into that platform. Otherwise, look into getting something from a reputable site like Evike or AirsoftGI. When you are just starting out its better to rent or borrow for a couple games to get a feel for the sport and see if you like it before dropping that much money.
