New textures and shaders updated, LET'S GOOO!

Explanation below!

Textures updated were Diffuse and Normals with the painted cracks, also a "normal" combiner node setup to combine overall baked procedural shadows with a baked Normal texture from sculpt, updated Glossy map with cracks masked and combined with it using Krita.

Arm texture is baked procedural texture on Diffuse, Glossy, and Normals (edited to rid of artifacts and an additional shadow map to create permanent shadows in certain areas.

All painted (non-procedural) textures were done with Ucupaint. New Toonshader Node setup was from How to Make a Toonshader series by Lightening Boy Studios!

Had to do a bunch of toonshader tutorials to see which one best fits with my illustration style and the most easiest to edit on the fly.

The Official LBS 2.1 shader would have been great to use, but it is sorely out of date since it was last updated for Blender 3.4. Their tutorial series, however, still works for 4.2 (and maybe onwards) since it used mostly easy to find nodes in Blender, but still lacks the layering system and other advanced stuff from the official LBS 2.1 shader. There is a new shader made by someone else that seems to mimic LBS layering system, L.S.M Layer Mask by Liquid State Anim on Gumroad! See tutorials on L.S.M here!

Um something I drew for Christmas Eve for some reason. Anyways here is Gangle, Zooble and Pomni stacking up for, well, no reason. They're would be the silly stupid girly idiots trio. ANYWAYS HERE IS CAINE BEING A S!MP BC WELL- SHOWTIME SHIPPERS KNOW WHY😏😏

I didn't know whether to draw the tadc characters or the Circus Craziness(my show) characters so I kinda did mix of both. Anyways. Merry Christmas/Xmas everyone. Stay safe folks.

Well, this is interesting...

So uh, I just realized while working on revisions for my Life Cycle of a Object Mimic document that my object ocs in WOR have strange family structure dynamics due to them being asexual reproducers lol.

Here's an image is from Jeff Searle's blog post "What is Sex?" Just showing this to show a quick example of what I mean by my Object ocs being asexual reproducers.

Here's a quick sketch of me trying to figure out the family tree. Solid line is relation through the Progenitor/Ichor and dash lines is only social relation (partners). Broken dash lines represent no social relation.

Note about the sketch below: if the text is not clear, Progenitor #1 has no siblings, dies and yields at least three withered kernels, all of which are their offspring. These grow into curios, then later adult Objects. One of the siblings had a Partner, then dies becoming Progenitor #2. That Partner is now the Guardian of the curio Progenitor #2 yielded. This Guardian only have a social relation with the curio through Progenitor #2 (Guardian is the living parent while the progenitor is the deceased parent). This curio grows up into an Adult Object, then dies with no partner of any kind nor altrices to care for their curios (possibly had no access to an abbey). They yield four withered kernels, that grow into curios, that then grow into Adults. One of these adults die, becoming Progenitor #5, once again had no partner, but an altrix from an abbey steps in to care for Progenitor #5's curio. This altrix (and all altrices) are only caregivers and have no social relation with the curio. Curio grows up into an adult, then dies as Progenitor #6, yielding a single kernel, that grows up, and is now currently an Adult. This adult, and any adults/curios still alive in this graft (not counting guardians or altrices), make up the family lineage of Progenitor #1.

In short, all my Object ocs (Mimickind) in my worldbuilding only share relations through their progenitor, then their progenitor's progenitor, and so on. Any members still living are all siblings of the Progenitor or the offspring of the Progenitor.

When Objects die a true death, they leave behind a withered kernel, and once cracked open, exposes a germ to be used for growing a new curio. The only "parent" is the guardian - buuuuut thanks to a few lore changes - guardians are not just the Object who is pair-bonded with the curio's progenitor (that is just common for most objectkind).

Let me explain.

In the case of a curio's progenitor's partner is dead (both "parents"), the next one to be a guardian (depending if they accept this task btw) is either siblings of the progenitor, another Object who steps in to take care (say an adoptive Object from the original guardian family or the altrix of an abbey).

Since direct relations are perceived only through the progenitor and not through the Guardian (due to guardians being any kind of object who steps in to care for a curio), all family matters are controlled by siblings and (maybe) cousins? There's no parent (mother/fathers) or grandparents?

I'm not sure?? How this works??

There's also, like relationship stuff to figure out, too.

Okay, so right now in my worldbuilding, Pair-Bonds are

romantic or platonic pairings of one or more Objects. All Objects are instinctively asexual and have no instinct to find suitable mates with strong genes to ensure the health and fitness of their offspring. Instead, they are driven to protect their partner until they die, where upon death, the deceased’s curio(s) will have a greater chance to surviving to adulthood with the help of the deceased’s living partner.

Guardians in my worldbuilding are:

an Object who is usually become their curio’s benefactor after that curio’s progenitor died. They usually act as parental figures of their curios, aiding in the curio’s education and growth while they grow up in an abbey. In the case of no surviving partner, the progenitor’s or the guardian’s family may step in to aid the curio. The Guardian’s family may participate in helping the guardian care for the curio(s), but are not considered related to the progenitor’s family though the progenitor’s curio and are not related through pair-bonds. If either family rejects the curio, the curio will have an altrix or adoptive Object to act as guardian.

So, family is relation through the Progenitor (and their lineage through past Progenitors). Guardians (either pair-bonds, other Objects, or altrices) are not considered part of the Progenitor's family (and lineage). The Progenitor's family is made up of their siblings (if alive) or cousins (if also alive) of the curio (cousins being the offspring of the Progenitor's siblings, who would have died to yield a kernel). All family matters are controlled by the Progenitor's family while the Guardian(s) (and their family) have no say as they are not seen as relatives to the Progenitor. The Guardian's family (their siblings and cousins) are not a part the Progenitor's family because of this.

The only role of the Guardian(s) is to ensure the Progenitor's curio is kept safe (either rearing them or having an abbey rear them).

~Skipping ahead a bit on a thought~

So lets say you have an Object who had just started their lineage by their existence (cough a human dies then gets inverted cough), then dies (becomes a Progenitor) and yields a kernel. That kernel is cracked, germ comes out then grows into a curio. Let's say that Progenitor had a partner. That Partner now cares for their curio as a Guardian. But since the Progenitor has no siblings or cousins, that Guardian now becomes the adoptive family of that curio. The Guardian's family also steps in to care for the curio, but still retain their independence from that curio and the curio's future lineage.

So the curio grows up into an adult but their Guardian grows old, dies, then has a kernel. They had no partner in their life. So would this mean that the adult Object that the Guardian once took care of now cares for the curio of the Guardian? What does this mean for the adult Object to the curio? Is the curio a "sibling" or "child" of the adult Object in this scenario?

I rather the adult Object in this scenario see the curio as a "sibling" because uuuuuuh "child" implies something real bad and not great (yeah ew no). So maybe the adult Object is a Sibling Guardian or a Grand-Sibling of their Guardian's curio?

I'll think upon this a bit more lol.
