Hey sweets!
VAMPIRES OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
(Narcissus original portraits)
When Project dark witch initial medieval setting transitioned into its current victorian one
(I'll expand on this tomorrow ;D ), the main character cast saw a huge revision, which included the addition of three new characters, one of them being mah boi Narcissus!
I wanted him to scream "classical vampire", so I opted for all the visual shenanigans you could expect:
pale ass skin, pointy ears, dark eye make up, livid lips, shiny red irises and ,of course, goth clothing!
He initially had grey hair but later on I took a narrative decision that me go for the full pearly white route
[let's just say that Preternatural is part of an extended (and huge) narrative universe]
Sadly, I've lost the only piece of concept art I made of him, but his first 3d iteration was extremely close to it
he suffered of two major problems however:
his rig was an unoptimized HELL and his design clashed a little bit too much with the rest of the cast
(he looked like he just got out of a MMORPG)
Luckily remaking him went as smooth as butter
There's nothing as satisfying as having real time cloth and hair physics in blender that do not drop the fps counter to 5
Brace your tits, tomorrow's entry is going to be the BIG one :D
