Grand and majestic in that uniform, ready to command a powerful tune

I thank you, kind sir. Proudly march with us!

You can tip the epaulettes in toward the neck in the "advanced posing" drop box, and reduce their size to make them fit better.

Thank you for the tip. Here I was just trying to get used to putting the epaulettes on the uniform.

I wish they had more realistic looking epaulettes. Most of their "shoulder items" are too big to look good.

I know; that's one frustrating thing about this.

That's strikingly accurate for pre made assets man

You really think so?

yeah man that's why I clicked on it, I thought custom assets were enabled.

ive been aware of you for some time, I remember your character and bio as I thought it was genuinely unique and interesting so I remember your profile pic, saw this and clicked on it for the aforementioned reason.

I know theyre armour pauldrons, not band uniform pauldrons, or epaulettes as above commenter stated, and when you have a vision you wont settle until it's realised, but this is really really close. From an outside perspective looking in, the colours, the amount of those colours, and the overall feel and vibe of the clothing style, it matches and is instantly recognisable.

as a 3d animator, when you make something yourself you only ever see it as a sum of it's parts, you see each model piece just placed where you wanted it, you put the jigsaw puzzle together and only see it as peices, but show it to someone who didnt make it, and they see it as a whole; the finished jigsaw puzzle's image.

I think humans subconsciously see things even if it isnt what we believe it is, this is how we believe smoke and mirrors, CGI etc, we only see the final image and it matches our own image of what it should be so we believe it. Seeing the colours in the right places, and the regal, smart dress jacket and hat, it passes.

Someone like you who has this image you want to create, or someone more knowledgeable in such attire than me wouldnt see it the same. "Oh thats a 1850 civil war jacket, not a 1900 bandmaster jacket" sorta thing, so some others will disagree with me, people have different eyes for things. But yes I personally believe this checks out as it completely caught my attention "hey I know that guy" when I saw the thumbnail.


yeah i had lot to say on this as its relevant to my 3d philosophy lol
