So I found this Golem bobblehead that looked really creepy, and did something with it

We hatesss hobbitses.

I may make his eyes move from side to side tomorrow.

Still hoping to find that elusive pre natal pic. Was rushing to a birth but arrived too late. Getting closer.



He was so cute! It is all about origins.

I don't know where in the world you are....but the Schlitterbahn in New Braunfels is the singular thing I look forward to each summer. I am hoping to be able to swing a second trip later this summer. My best friend lives there and has season passes....lucky schmuck.

They have 3 others, the only one outside of Texas is in Kansas City.

but the Schlitterbahn in New Braunfels

... yeah... that's what I googled. Looks like a friggin blast.

ETA:

I don't know where in the world you are

Greater Seattle area...but way out East in the burbs... the weather here has been extremely awesome. We don't have a Schlitterbahn due to the mostly extreme lack of sunshine on the norm.

Voting ends on July 17

three more days...

Come on folks... let's see some more entries for the "make BFFT a new avatar" contest

Thanks. He's a little too creepy, though.

If anyone want's him, it's these two put together...

Entry #5

Van Gogh Rilla...

i made this last night and forgot to post.

Hey Zarni, I have a request.

Think you could make both eyes open on my current Ginger avvy, looking directly forward, with a ten second pause?

There's some shading issues involved, as both eyes aren't in the same plane. Of course, she needs Emerald Green eyes, being Celtic.

Up to the challenge?

hey zarni, if you need help making the eyes lemme know.

Glowing Emerald Eyes that sparkle once? I know it's raising the bar a bit, but the overall effect I am seeking should be chilling. You are dealing with photographic quality in an image, so it's gonna be REALLY tough to blend together.

Making an image open it's eyes, look direct at the viewer, then back down again, keeping the same resolution? Man, that's a tough request to fulfil.

There's a whole set of parameters to deal with to make it look right, and real. Shading, angles, heck, the twinkle effect itself needs to be subtle. It's for one eye only, her right eye.

You guys thrive on challenges, so here's a good one.

I can amend the green eye color rather easily, and make it stunningly bright.

I need Zarni to confirm the eyes I currently have. I think the shading will be good, and the blending seemed to work fairly well (may have to tinker a bit with the right eyes border).

Once we are sure this is the eye template, I can make several other variation frames to have a half closed lid, the eyes looking in a different direction, a couple of different twinkles to get movement if possible, etc.

Should be fun, and a nice outcome I hope.
