Progress Study 19Th Of August 2015 (Tfios Diorama And Harley Quinn)

Phew, this will be a long floor...

I've been working on a The Fault in Our Stars Diorama for quite a spell right away, as well as a week ago I managed to finish my make of it.

As you tin can run across I've decided that the bench scene in Amsterdam is a actually prissy idea. I likewise scribbled roughly random nonsense on the bench, merely afterward taking this picture, then yous tin can't really meet anything. I likewise managed to mess the graphic symbol'sec faces upwardly quite a scrap, simply to my defense force around parts were actually tiny :D . No matter how messed upward their faces are, if somebody saw the picture show they will know that this diorama is based on it. I've even built the oxygen tank with the purse. The underground is merely a ii-sided 2D cutout. The jackets and the bodies are actually seperate, the bodies themselves have no arms. On the build Hazel'second leg possition is a scrap off.

This is a private projection, and then there is actually no way of getting the files. The project occupies 21 pages (eight for the bench together with oxygen tank, 7 for Gus as well as six for Hazel).

This projection was actually made because I needed a suspension from editing Harley Quinn. Harley Quinn has to be the hardest craft I've attempted to brand and so far. The model from Arkham Knight is immensely high-poly. Editing took me several days. I decided not to withdraw ANY of her hair strands, merely edit them to brand all strands a unmarried newspaper piece, only double sided. She has all of the laces on her boots, arms too dorsum that she had earlier I started, but edited. After all of that fiasco, I ended upwardly with an 89 page papercraft at 95cm tall, 21 of which is just pilus. The function count for all the hair is over 650. That makes it 325+ strands. The function count for everything is 1359. The template was made inward Pepakura Designer High-Resolution version, because the model itself was mapped amongst more often than not 2048x2048 resolution textures.

After finally finishing the unfold, too printing the whole affair into a ane.8GB pdf (at 1200dpi) I was curious what would happen if I played around alongside the textures. First I started with but the confront. I made it a scrap lighter, added a fleck more black around the eyes as well as made the lips a LOT more than ruby. I liked the consequence, simply it didn't fit alongside the residual of the textures so one tweaked them likewise.

Having done that too printed another 1.8GB pdf, I remembered that the model besides has bump maps alongside it. So once more I messed around amongst the textures in addition to added bump maps to the regular texture.

After printing withal some other 1.8GB pdf, The unusually low contrast on the model was bugging me, and then guess what I did.

So I withal once more, printed the whole thing, thinking that was it. But looking at the pdf up close I felt that The bump maps are as well apparent. So for the concluding time I decided to tweak the textures, lowered the contrast everywhere only on the confront as well as legs. This is what the model currently looks similar:

Harley was printed on the 14th of August 2015. But there were quite a few problems. First let me present you lot what it looks like.

The fun part was request people what they think how many pages in that location are, as well as many of them went into several hundred :D . As yous can run into the stack is quite thick. The hair, skirt together with frills are printed on regular 80gsm paper, in addition to the residue is printed on 200-240gsm newspaper. But the problem is that the printer doesn't work really good amongst the thick paper, so approximately colors came out really odd. Worst is the color cherry-red. The ruby on the legs was really awful, merely the boots were fine.

The left photograph is supposed to be RED. I power live colorblind only this is definitively non scarlet. Some parts on the correct photograph have crimson inward them, parts from the upper body. I had to make something about that, so I went back to the copy place, too printed nearly cerise parts on regular 80gsm newspaper. I volition mucilage the parts on thick paper and so that they volition be able to back up the weight of the trunk. I'thousand actually glad that I printed both legs, because there was a nipper size departure between the quondam too novel prints so I can't mix parts. But since the difference is really fry it won't touch the whole model, since it'sec consisted of a duad of independent parts. The ruby parts came out wonderful!

I started building her at once afterward getting dwelling house. I started alongside the caput. The head itself is non real hard, only the thick newspaper gave me a few complications about the lips. The lips were cracked.

These are the images I took on mean solar day one. On the 16th I picked it upwards once more, finished the caput (without the cervix, together with started adding the hair to the head. There were 2 layers at each topographic point. I glued the outset 1 down regularly, in addition to the second layer was cut into iv-5 thinner pieces to get in await similar existent hair (equally realistic equally paper hair can live).

 

You tin can meet from the correct photograph that the hair really is cutting into modest strands. With two strands remaining I ran out of mucilage so I had to go go about, simply my town doesn't sell the 1 I role, hence the build had to expect until I had the opportunity to get become roughly mucilage. After getting glue I finished the two strands I had remaining and started on the fringe. 

As you tin can see, I cut even the fringe into smaller strands. I also glued the lips over with new parts (since they were red I printed them on thinner paper). This is where I stopped edifice on the 17th. The next mean solar day was all well-nigh the other side of the bangs. This side was a fleck more than difficult to form.

And lastly today (19th) I started working on the pigtails (I don't really know if they are pigtails, I know zippo nigh hair). I started the correct ane commencement. The black ane. I didn't get rattling far, though. There are a lot of parts and finding a couple was non actually tardily (because I had no more than patience to separate them on the pdo itself). But I built around a quarter of the black parts, too one-half of the remaining pieces are cut out. So this is what I take immediately:

Of form the pilus won't be flight about similar that once I'1000 done with the residual of it. I volition mucilage close to strands together and so that they hang straight down. And in this photograph you can encounter the picayune bumps on the caput from all the mini strands.

This is the finish of progress report no.two. Visit dorsum shortly for more than intelligence on Harley Quinn as well as oncoming projects!

Happy Crafting!
