#and really should've merged a whole bunch of stuff to make rigging the winter one easier

So a while ago I got into Warhammer 40k, and as everyone surely does when they get into 40k, I decided that my first project should obviously be to make a skitarii vtuber model.
I had never made a vtuber model before, and cannot quite remember what prompted this thought process. But you know, it feels fitting for the admech. You're telling me they wouldn't be into the idea of being able to look like their ideal robot version of themselves? Imagine their vtuber models. Just imagine.
I feel I should mention that I actually made two vtuber models, because the first one was full of trial and error, and realisations of what does not work with a 2D model. The second one also had trial and error, as is expected, but less so, as my first project had given me a good base to launch off of.
The blue one - nicknamed simply winter skit, though I'm getting attached enough I just might give them a proper name eventually - was actually meant to have a mechadendrite with a camera at the end, which could function either as a nice idle with the possibility of emoting to a comical degree, or it could function like a stand-in for the chat, if I were to start actually streaming. Which is unlikely, and I'm fairly certain using GW's intellectual property for it would be a bad idea, but it's fun to think about regardless.
Although my OBS does not believe in high quality videos, I wanted to share my lil guy, test shown in the rigging program since my laptop's camera resigned between the testing of the first skit and this guy.

#my art#warhammer 40k#wh40k#admech#adeptus mechanicus#skitarii#yes i know skitarii don't blink. the program just has auto-blinking which i didn't bother to disable for this#and besides having emotive eyes makes for a more fun animation and design#i wonder what sorta planet the winter skit hails from... i want to imagine the turquoise parts glow in the dark#what does that mean for the planet then though? mushrooms or algae or radioactivity?#well then again wherever the skitarii go there will be radioactivity#anyways making vtuber models was fun. i had to return a few times to the drawings and add or delete stuff though#and really should've merged a whole bunch of stuff to make rigging the winter one easier#but regardless it was fun. the rigging gave me flashbacks to my 3D animation and rigging studies#which came in a clutch here kinda even though 2D rigging is different. I think I've rigged 2D stuff only once before...#i do get why people pay big money for the rigging and drawing. keep doing that.#would I sell a vtuber model I've rigged? I don't think I'm at a good enough level to do that yet. And the program I used has a free trial#that's ending for me so I can't actually make more. Unless someone would pay for the subscription as well that is lol#vtuber
