Summer Fun Challenge 2021 WIP - Red Dwarf

Decided to go for a Playmobil scene, partly, because I can't do more realistic characters yet :)

Started with the main character:

Had a problem making the hair, but then, after having struggled for a relatively long time, I thought of going into Sculpt Mode and, with the part of the head where the hair should come selected in Edit Mode, I used Face Sets > Face Set from Edit Mode Selection, followed by Extract Face Set.

Mind you, with the clothes, simple duplication and extrusion and scaling worked just fine, but with the head....

Excellent spikeyxxx ,

'I'll pack my bags and head into hyperspace,

Where I'll succeed at time-warp speed,

Spend my days in ultraviolet rays,

fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun...'

Red Dwarf! This is either Lister or Cat! Judging from the hair I would say Lister.

@adrian2301 it's Dave Lister indeed...I might add a crashed space ship...don't know yet, let's see what happens ;)

Only today I continued working on this; last days spend thinking about it and trying to visualize the scene, but now I finished most of the modeling, I think:

The tree leaves were a bit of a challenge to figure out, but I'm happy with the result:)

Still a minimal amount of texturing to be done (mainly the shirt) and placing everything where it should go.

Don't think I will have time to do the spaceship, but we'll see.

First test render:

Final image:

I love it! And when you've got a shirt like that no one can see the vindaloo stains! Or...are those all vindaloo stains... o_o;

Great job spikeyxxx , I used to watch Red Dwarf all the time. I'm glad you had some fun creating this scene and enjoyed it as much as Lister is enjoying himself. Love the style you have gone with, nice shirt by the way 👍
