Bimbi

two roughly modeled heads, one human and the second is an anthro canid

The Two Genders
Made these heads for fitting the helmets/visors/masks

I'm closing in on a first draft of the cockpit, helmet, and visor. Next is character design. How horny am I allowed to get with the pilot suits?

@bsky.app reinstate Dril immediately

Makes me think about ******* ** * *** and ***** for a better world

I wanna write about the Epstein stuff, but the moderation on here might be too strict for me to say how I feel.

All of my work has this fatal flaw. I just don't know how to greeble! Do I need to try copying from reference material more? Are there some fundamentals I don't know? Do I need to learn how to draw textures? How do I do that?

Here's what I'm really struggling with: How do I full these flat empty spaces?
Functionally nothing needs to be there, but without any detailing it looks bland and low effort. How do mecha artists learn to fill these otherwise empty spaces? I know practice is party of it but I feel like Sisyphus.

A close up of a futuristic fighter plane centered on the pilot's seat. The plane has a solid armored canopy, so the pilot relies on the aircraft's array of sensors, cameras, and radar.

An alternate camera position showing the plane's dashboard screen, which currently displays the radar and information about the planes status.

Working on the Augur's cockpit. Art block won't let me finish the details.

I'm still torn over having a virtual canopy like in Macross or just running all visual information run straight to the pilots visor. I guess I could compromise by only projecting the HUD to the visor 🐸🤔

前作って放置してある地形設計ツールだ

山脈形状が作れる！萌え！！と思うけど使用機会がねえ(´・ω・｀)

I'll fully model the exterior and modify the existing hanger to fit inside the ship, maybe also the repair bay. I'll leave everything else inside the ship to unseen.

This is a good start! Its based on a hybrid container-roro design. A deck cleared of containers leaves plenty of uniform space for two runways and an aircraft elevator, and a parking lot interior can be converted to hanger, repair bay, and all the other necessary facilities.

Even in the setting I'm creating a PMC purchasing an aircraft carrier, even an old one, seems out of the question. So I'm looking at diagrams of cargo ships and speculating about how each different type could be renovated into an all-in-one mobile airbase.

I think I've identified why this hanger has been do difficult: I didn't know where it was located. This might seem unimportant, but actually informs a lot of a place's character. So where is the Dove Initiative's headquarters? The only logical place is on a gigantic ship! Gotta design a boat now

Ace Combat 8 is real!!

What people miss about this peanut thing is that vtubers are more than medium, its a subculture. Thats why it sucks that a person who intentionally distances himself from and hates the subculture (Schrodinger's asshole) won the award. Should have gone to someone helped build the subculture.

Book Title: I got reincarnated into another world and fell in love with the empress but now I have to explain to her how I can "really blow up a bathroom"

The alphabet needs a letter 0

And lastly the Ooparts!
All three playable Sundogs are finished 🐸😌. This is the ground-attack and heavy firearm specialist. The Ooparts carries big bombs and big guns to smash grounded enemies and hold captured territory clad in Phalanx livery.

This this final version of the Communion.
An interceptor Sundog specialized for speed above all else. It's comfortable an any battle environment with no preference in weeping type and carries some stealth technology too. This Communion belongs to Dove's Peacock Squadron.

The Augur is finally done!
This Sundog is optimized for air superiority through guided firepower and supermaneuverability. The jump jets in it's leg ensure it stays evasive even on the ground. This Augur is wearing the Dove Initiative's elite squadron Spellbinder Livery.

🐸👋 Hey I'm Bimbi and make these chonki models on vgen
Lemme know if you want your #vtuber or #OC in this style, I'm open for business!

This is for my #Sundogs project I dunno if the room is too big over all, but the previous hanger was too small so extra space can't hurt. The ceiling has to be high enough for a sundog to stand up.

I'm finally happy with the Spellbinder hanger! This will probably be the only indoor environment I make for the rulebook. I'll finish the briefing room and Major's office later. So nice to finally have something I can post. I'll make some NPCs eventually, maybe a combat scene next. #mecha #b3d #art

I love the front door

Each Sundog has unique architecture on the pillar behind it.

You can see the briefing room and major's office at back of the hanger above the door leading to the maintenance workshop

There's a few spots that could use more greebeling but just can't do it right now lol. sometime later.

Here's a few more shots showing the front door and some finer details. I'm not totally done with furnishing the briefing room but it's still cool to see through the window. I'll use these spaces for several pages so I'll get as much value as possible. #mecha #b3d #art

Training a spirit to use my machine

In high school I was voted "least likely to survive multiple mating seasons"

I've spent dozens of hours working on this hanger, but I can't get it feel right. There's so much empty and flat wall space and I have no idea what I can do with it. Reducing the size of the room is an option, but doesn't solve anything fundamentally.
Its depressing.

Started blocking out the hanger's briefing / common room. I'm not interested in creating spaces at such a small scale, but the rulebook outline calls for renders of pilots so I guess I gotta.

And here's an Augur with the bottom most yellow and blue material. Pretty cool I can just slap it on anything.
