So, OK, I'm slow as heck.
On Second Life, there are these things called pose stands. They are very...gah, what's the word...very good tools (ugh) to use when you want to edit something about your avatar.
Well, I had a thought. I could use it to take reference shots of my character, and attempt to model it. Not the best pictures, because my character keeps fidgeting, and I can't jump to a nearby axis like the X or Z axis, but I took a couple and am giving it a try. I could have just done this the entire time and save myself tons of time on having to draw up a horrible reference myself.
I believe I've gotten a lot better at modeling, compared to a year ago or so, , and already, it does kinda look like it's showing. Every other attempt I made at modeling something, I messed up heavily. I'm using reference images this time. Not very good ones, but references nonetheless.
I've tried Sculptris and stuff, and while it may be a great program, at the "skill" level I'm at right now, I'm not ready to model something in that.
So, here's hoping I can actually finish this model that I'm working on. If I can, then from there I can base other models off of it and have the models I want to do for others done in no time.
