So. I have improved a bunch, BUT I want to practice working on different heads, hairstyles, and overall getting faster.

So speed busts. Want a 3d bust like this? Drop a reference for one of your OCs. I'll pick some up and chip away at them between working on larger projects.
I hate these days where I roll out of bed only to find my anxiety in full swing.

It's easier to manage nowadays, but it still makes the whole day feel like a write-off.

Also where does Saturn fit in? Is he a hunter leader, big shot? :>

How much prestige is there in being a hunter? Is it a sought after profession at all, or hunters respected and idolized?

(More seriously though, something involving the bat being a menace to society, instead of a danger to one's prostate)

This actually did the trick, helped ID some modifiers that had some junk data baked into them in the older character files.

Still a big gap but not -as- big now.

He's inexplicably less than a -third- the file size of the other characters. I don't know what I did to achieve this and want to replicate it.

(Yes, I use data clean-up religiously, so all extraneous items are removed before packing)
January 4, 2026 at 3:42 AM
My first few characters, once fully packed, range from 160 - 250 MB. 4k textures, polycounts around 100k, a full (and pretty complex) rig. Too large, I think. I want to optimize them so they aren't so cumbersome.

Cue the nurse shark twink. Same deal. Same rigging, texture size.
January 4, 2026 at 3:42 AM
I have a weird question for other Blender folks - is there a way to identify what items are contributing to the file size in a .blend? I think I've mucked something up or need to optimize it but I'm not sure where to start.

It's the only way I can really keep the anxiety at bay reliably. Have something to focus on, engage with it for a bit, plan out what I do next so there's as little downtime for my brain to wander into the danger zone.

Man the comments on that almost blinded me.

Keeping myself on my toes. If I'm working on a smooth small guy I gotta work on the exact opposite too.

A quick render of the (kinda sorta) bottom heavy shark I was working on.

A very rough WIP, but I at least dig the pose.

Annnd a productive first morning for 2026. Rigs updated, uploaded.

I wasn't keen on the renders so I did another set.

For real for real done for the year (rendering, at least).

Sharks are me. Shep is @afevis-ad.sheppy.gay <3

Also the other one I wanted to post, but it is partly my own.

I should do more of these...
