Project Poll 14 (Patreon)
Content
New project poll, same format as the last one, multi-choice (pick as many options as you want), top voted one gets made. This is probably one of the more varied ones I've done yet, lots of different things and styles to pick from. Getting right into it, poll options bellow:
1. Tactical vest/corset + tank top
- patron suggested.
- I haven't really done a lot of these military inspired items, should make a good addition to combine with other pieces.
- nothing really out of the ordinary that would present challenges worth noting here, so pretty straight-forward and fast to make, what you see is what you get with this one.
2. Mechanical leg + boot (red)
- this was in the last poll, it didn't win but I noticed that there was a good amount of interest in it so I figured I should give it another chance in this one.
3. Rubi Leather Jacket Top
- patron suggested.
- has a nice design and leather in general is typically fun to make and texture for me. Not the fastest thing to make, but not the most time consuming either, a good choice time investement wise.
- I don't think I'm going to make that red undershirt or whatever it is (but I'm not 100% sure on that, I'll see how it goes if it gets picked). Either way, the more important part is the jacket and the pieces over it, so that's my main focus here.
4. Tech Sci-fi Body Suit
- I haven't made one of this style of outfits so ... why not. Looks fun to make and has good material variety.
- the only problem with this is that the concept itself is a bit loose (not fully detailed) and a good chunk of it is missing (legs/back/etc) which puts more pressure on me in the design department and having to interpret or figure things out. There's also no real way to split it into parts to release gradually, except for gloves (potential boots/footwear that I have no ideea how they'd even look at this point), so I'd most likely have to do it all at once. This means it's going to be time consuming and there's not going to be a lot of activity or releases in between, so keep that in mind.
- oh, and the bunny plushie or whatever it is, that one isn't going to be included :P Same for the headset, though it's something I can make at a later date.
5. Jeans + belts (bottoms)
- this concept has been in past polls and has won some. I made and released the boots and the full top from here. I never allowed voting for the bottom part of it though, mostly because it was always a bad time for it, having other pants or similar items in the works in the background.
- That ... hasn't changed. I just made and released torn jeans (and belts) so this is probably not the best time for it. In all honesty, I'd rather not make this right now, I'm a bit burned out on jeans and I probably shouldn't allow voting for it, but at the same time though, it has been a long time coming so ... I dunno.
- I'm still very much interested in completing this full set at some point, rest assured that it is going to be in future polls if it doesn't get picked now, so ... I'd say only pick it if you really really REALLY want it right now :P
6. Fantasy armor set
- I've had this concept art tucked away in my folder for what feels like years now. I always liked it quite a bit, it has about everything I look for in an armor/outfit set design that I personally like and checks every box easily ( asymmetry, fancy, shows a bit of skin, bold colors, variety of materials, aggressive design that stands out).
- I know, you're probably here for Fallout stuff and this isn't exactly your standard Fallout material lol, at the same time it gets a bit boring for me to always work on modern clothing so a change might be interesting I think. It would still go in Fallout as it's main release, but it's also something that I'd very strongly consider porting to Skyrim too, since it would be a lot more at home in that setting.
- Some issues with it:
1. it's a full armor set, it's EXTREMELY time consuming. It looks deceptively simple, but it is not, there's quite a lot going on there. I estimate at least 1 full month to make all of that, more likely 2 to get it looking good or decent at least. Fortunately it has a lot of parts that can be easily split and released gradually in that time, however ...
2. it's all I'd be working on for the duration and since it would take a long time and I like to have content for all tiers in a given month, some pieces would inevitably end in separate tiers. If you're a lower tier patron, you're most likely not going to get all the pieces or releases for it like it usually happens with these polls. Not great, but it's the only way I can approach some of these bigger projects right now.
3. even if it's not always ideal for what I'm making, I like to maintain compatibility between pieces I make by using the same body. For this, I'm most likely going to use a custom/different body than normal. The preset that I use as a base has ginormous breasts that simply don't fit this armor set's design, it would just be too bulky and not look right and wasting time to make it fit seems pointless. If you're someone that wants to mix and match pieces and are unable to work on models to adapt them to your body/needs, this might be of interest to you, since you're not going to be able to do that with this set, it's going to be it's own standalone thing.
7. More Hair
- if you want more hair ... you know what option to pick :) I'll follow this poll up with a hair poll if this option wins.
