believe it or not, I was using the male armor set as my reference. the boots, waist area, and arm fluff are all ripped from the male armor set and not the female one. as cute and snuggleable as the girl in this drawing is, in-game the female furious rajang armor set feels lacking. it has virtually no fluff other than the pigtails, and I was looking for fluff inspiration.

I would like to add that she literally has no nipples, like is that secretly part of the armor in order to trick an enemy into thinking her vitals are unprotected?

I forgot I have more than 2D artwork these days. I made a truck for a class project! Here’s what it looks like in unreal engine:
and here are the reference images I used to create it:
not sure why it looks darker than the original, the colors were literally picked from the original images. whatever

wow it’s yet another character absolutely none of you will recognize and I have to explain again:
Future Robot
long time ago I played this silly little game called Hello Penguin. basically if you type in “hello penguin” you win, and if you type in “goodbye penguin”, bad things happen to you. there was also a sequel called Hello Penguin 2: an epic saga of 4 heroes vs the out-of-control penguin for the sake of reality, unreality, and everything in between. but catastrophically, all save files come with a save immediately before the final boss fight of the game, and there doesn’t seem to be a “delete save” option in the menu. you fight the Fallen Angel Penguin, Galaxy Penguin, and Penguin Reborn in a climactic final boss fight in typical turn-based RPG combat. your party consists of Pumpkin Knight, Clark, Cagefuck, and this character, Future Robot. despite being a free, fun little baby indie game, I actually quite liked the character design of this Future Robot character and thought I might like to draw it some time. never did though.
skip forward in time to a month or two ago and something made me remember Hello Penguin 1 and 2, and I went to go check it out again since I had deleted the downloads some time ago. to my astonishment, there was a whole new Hello Penguin game: Hello Penguin 2 HD! and honestly, HP2 HD is pretty great. like, the original was a bit of a shitty spoof that was ironically enjoyable, but the remake is actually quite polished and fun to play. it’s still not very long since they didn’t get that save state bug fixed, but it’s worth a look at nonetheless. it’s also got me wondering some things on game design/storytelling levels to see if they might be worth expanding on, though I haven’t gotten anything worth bringing up yet. seeing the game once again also reignited my desire to draw Future Robot, and this time I actually followed through.

What is she thinking about? Who knows! Leave a guess below!
That was my facial expression irl when trying to decide on a facial expression to use for the drawing.

I drew a person inspired by this cat called “Rex” in this mobile game I have. I’m definitely not satisfied with how the hood and mask turned out here but I gave up trying to figure out what was wrong. I’m fairly certain the mask needs to be bigger, but I don’t know how to fit it any bigger without the eyes getting in the way. I had a lot of fun with her hair though. If I ever draw her again it will almost certainly be with hood down and mask off. I currently have no idea what she’s like personality-wise, I just drew a character for the sake of drawing a character this time.
Rex for reference looks like this:

I promise I’m not dead. it’s just that, as you may remember, I draw very infrequently because it’s not that big an interest of mine and it can be emotionally taxing to push myself when things aren’t looking right yet. but the thing is, I haven’t really stopped drawing, it’s just that the ones I’ve drawn in the meantime are ones I can’t or don’t want to show you. even if I’m not dead though, the forum is pretty dead. most of the people I talk to regularly aren’t even going to see this post because they don’t use the forum either. so like, what’s the point of continuing to post? idk I just haven’t picked an alternative place to dump pictures yet. I have no idea what to do with this thread anymore since very few people are going to see it, and even fewer are going to care.
anyway!

the netherite armor model in minecraft is horrendous. it’s overshaded and formless and blurry and one of the worst things I’ve seen. it’s so bad that on seeing it I immediately had to put my slightly better sprite art ability to work and find out how to make a texture pack for myself. while I was at it I also swapped out all regular helmets for some basic headbands because the default helmet texture has also always seriously bugged me. this is me in my own custom netherite armor:

this is what the actual thing looks like:
