    Hey there, it’s been a hot minute since I last posted here, so it may take me a little to get things rolling again.
    Regardless I’m excited to have a format that allows me to craft longer entries and share more about and around my art.

  • Majora’s Mask Replica #02

  • Having left off last time with the finished 3d model I was hit with a bunch more questions.

    Due to using an FDM 3d printer, I’m always left with a lot of visible lines as a result of the print process. If you are dedicated enough and got the time to spare you’ll be able to get rid of them with a lot of primer, sanding and filler to patch up imperfections. But I got to be honest, that was not exactly something I’ve been looking forward to.

    So I decided to make these imperfections part of the design and go for a rough, weathered effect on the mask.

    I’ve been experimenting with something similar on a previous project while creating a replica of Aku Aku from Crash Bandicoot.

    So I brought the model over to Zbrush to add some extra detail.

  • Majora’s Mask Replica #01

  • With the trees beginning to lose their leaves and Halloween edging closer every, day my excitement keeps growing by the minute.

    Which is almost a bit strange as Halloween isn’t widely celebrated where I’m from.

    Then again who can blame me? Candy, critters, creepy creatures and costumes -  I’d say that makes it clearly the superior holiday!

    Anyways beginning of the month my company announced they’ll be holding a Halloween party, so obviously, I decided I’ll need a proper attire to fit right in with the ghostly and ghastly, but what could it be?

    After some brainstorming, I remembered how I’ve always wanted to have a replica of Majora’s mask, but I got to admit that my past attempts have been rather rubbish.

    So it had been decided I needed to redeem myself and finally create a decent looking mask.

    This time around I’m luckily not alone and will have my trusty 3d printer to help me out.

    But before I get to print anything I’ll need a 3d model first

    So I jumped right into Blender and within an evening of work, I had a decent looking mask.

    However, I soon realized that I would need to be able to see through the thing if I’m not planning to run over all my colleagues during the party.

    So I had to make sure the holes in the mask would like to with my line of sight.

    After taking measurements of my face, I  had to do quite a bit of adjusting while keeping the spacing of the elements close to the official artworks.

    As you can see in the comparison picture I needed to bring the eyes quite a bit closer to one another.

  • Inktober Day 8 - Crooked
This yokai was once a chinese-style oiled-paper umbrella. They are said to be harmless but can surprise humans by sneaking up to them and licking them with their long oily tongues.
