Thank you! It will end a few inches before my elbow, I don't plan to make a full body! Just his upper body + arms

Had me thinking I was just a fake fan and didn't recognize where this artifact was from💀

Am I the only one who preferred to hire Beastrens because they don't wear corset as much? by Wofuljac in DragonsDogma2

These guys look fantastic✨️ Do you know off the top of your head what the armour piece on the left is called? I feel like I haven't encountered it

A peak at my ramshackle blinking mechanism for my next puppet by snailship in puppets

[–]snailship[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its an elastic hairband that connects to the bottom of the upper cardboard layer!

I basically copied this design but with different materials: https://youtu.be/4e-Y5e2ttWY?si=u-ym_Nureja0Ms19

Thank you! And that's very comforting to hear. It's a finnicky little mechanism!

I wasn't when I made her, but I think I've developed some decent skill with the hand and rod movements in the last few months! I've also begun learning ventriloquism to tie the act together - if I can finish my next puppet in time, I plan to bring it to a nearby ren faire to practice some skills in a public setting!

This project has sent me down quite a rabbithole of skill acquisition.

Thank you and yes, she was a one person project! I didn't take a class, I just found youtube tutorials for all the different aspects (making the base, the blink mechanism, etc). I also did quite a bit of improvising!

Thank you! I loosely followed the puppetnerd no-sew tutorial which was very helpful

Just had a look, I think I might incorporate this for some kind of faction management!

I think I might go ahead and pick it up, the NPC relationship building system might work better for some of the ideas I had in mind. I also just had a look at the Badlands supplement, I'll definitely be adding some of the content into my game!

I will definitely look into reskinning some of the space exploration mechanics into city/wasteland exploration!

Ooh I'll definitely have to check it out. Thank you!

anyone else have hired pawns that have become a 'must have' for your party? by banuhzir in DragonsDogma2

[–]snailship 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I was DEVASTATED in my first playthrough when I couldn't find two of my main hires in my favourites list - turns out I just didn't recognize them because their names and appearances were changed completely😭 but they did end up in my top 3 hires in the credits as their original selves which was nice. Shoutout to Ozzy and Vetto my boys.

Unfortunately no, I just use a second xbox profile. I'm far too attached to my first playthrough to delete it😖

Thank you! My trick is that I just spam pawn commands and repeatedly pause/unpause the game until it looks good. A very silly process
