thanks everyone for coming to see my 3d debut!

for those who couldn't make it, i'll cut together a short youtube video from the debut later

but for now, here's what it looks like! the normal version, the chibi version, and the transition between them (which I'm very proud of!)

At long last! I'll be debuting my 3D model!

Saturday June 7th at 6pm EST/3pm PST, at twitch.tv/renpona!

I'll show off the new model and some of the neat stuff I've done with it!

I haven't been very active lately, but hopefully that's going to change!

the underappreciated gem of #VTubeStudio hand tracking support is the gesture detection

full-hand tracking gets all the attention, but it's impractical to actually rig for. on the other hand, using gestures to trigger stuff can be quite useful, even if it's not quite as showy

if you're wondering why you don't see me doing weird shit with Live2D anymore, it's because my art skills aren't up to par

rolling my own physics engine so i can use hand tracking to chuck a ball around kinda loses its impressiveness when it looks like this

relatively simple effects can make a surprisingly big impact, especially when made interactive somehow

Depending on the game, you can make your avatar react to things like attacking, getting powerups, hitting enemies, taking hits, getting kills, dying, or other things! It's up to what the game or mod does with rumble, as well as your creativity!

i guess bluesky has video now?

look at me, i make tools for game-to-vtuber interactivity!
