I nailed the smaller, more Freakhound-esque ears, and they'll be the default ears for the model. FreakPupper is built off: FreakHound by @ghostcabb.it PupperHD Remix by Tosca and @cloudhusky.bsky.social Texture of @ciferjackal.bsky.social's Freakhound

I’ll be shifting focus today to the FreakPupper. I did make a smaller, more Freakhound-like ear, and the plan is to make two more blendshapes: - Larger Tail - Longer Tail I also need to look into the animation controller, as I’d like an ear flick and a tail wagging animation. That’d be perfect. 👌

Not many updates on the Blender projects. I’ve been focusing the past week on fixing the weight paint on the Altis Techwear outfit for the X-Doggo. After seven days of staring at paint, the pants now bend with the avatar correctly! 😂

I have no reason to track it, but part of me would enjoy tracking the number of hours I spend in Blender. Maybe it's Steam, influencing this, but I would find it fun to know "I spent ____ hours in Blender today!"

What blendshapes would you like to see with the FreakPupper? Currently I’m thinking of adding an option for a bigger tail and a slimmer ear (more reminiscent of the FreakHound).

Migrated the FreakPupper last night to use Poiyomi 10 (previously used the Standard shader), and then I added a blush that can be toggled. Texture: @ciferjackal.bsky.social FreakPupper consists of: FreakHound: @ghostcabb.it PupperHD Remix: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

I've been spending more and more of my afternoons and evenings in Blender and Unity, and every time, I'm happy with what I learned and created. CiferJackal's FreakPupper: @ciferjackal.bsky.social FreakPupper is made with: FreakHound: @ghostcabb.it PupperHD Remix: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

It’s crazy to think. About six months ago I had very little experience with Blender, and now, I’m good enough to be dangerous in it. There’s still a great deal to learn like weight painting, but that will come with more time and experience. Onward we go!

If you would like a retexture from me, please feel free to contact me here or on Telegram (@koshiroaura). It’s $40 flat regardless of the design, and I can provide you a list of bases I have currently! If you have any other questions or ideas, don’t hesitate to reach out!

After spending two hours in a coffee shop yesterday, I wrapped up the retexture for @ciferjackal.bsky.social of my FreakPupper! It's the most complex one to date, and I'm super happy with the results! FreakPupper is based on: Freakhound: @ghostcabb.it PupperHD: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

After fixing the areas that were clipping the previous days, I'm at a happy place to pause this project temporarily and resume another one with Substance Painter. More to come on this outfit! Moonfang Techwear: @korvyn.bsky.social X-Doggo Remix: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

Having the outfit on the avatar made it super easy to get into weight painting, and if I didn't take melatonin last night, I would of stayed up late into the night. 😂 Moonfang Techwear: @korvyn.bsky.social X-Doggo Remix: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

The joys of weight painting~

Tonight’s Blender task: Learning to weight paint clothes. Boy, is it like the final boss to a Blender project.

I've been working on this project every day after work, and every day, I get a little farther. It's one huge challenge, and I'm glad I took up it! Moonfang Techwear: @korvyn.bsky.social X-Doggo Remix: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

It's only getting better with each step~ Always believe in yourself. Moonfang Techwear: @korvyn.bsky.social X-Doggo Remix: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

After putting in several hours this weekend, I uploaded my first work-in-progress for the second outfit. There's still room for adjustments, but I'm really happy with the results! More to come! Moonfang Techwear: @korvyn.bsky.social X-Doggo Remix: Tosca & @cloudhusky.bsky.social

My second fitting project is sculpting @korvyn.bsky.social Techwear suit for the Moonfang to the X-Doggo remix. This has definitely been a challenge, since it was layered and didn't match the pose of the armature. X-Doggo Remix: Tosca / @cloudhusky.bsky.social Techwear Suit: @korvyn.bsky.social

Finished my first refit of a swimsuit to the Fennix Ultimate Remix last night! I had to made some minor adjustments to it, and it needed the Fennix's armature. I'm soo excited to wear it, because my Fennix matches my X-Doggo in style! Thank you for the help, @cloudhusky.bsky.social !

While I'm working on the FreakPupper, I've started two side projects for fitting clothing to a different avatar base, and one of them is adapting a swimsuit to the Fennix Ultimate Remix. The first two pictures are the work-in-progress in Blender, and the third one shows it on the X-Doggo Remix.

I just got my lens in today, and I hear they add +5 to my INT. How do I look? Happy #FursuitFriday! 🪡 by @madefuryou.com

It's @azzy.chee.gay! It's @sashy.bsky.social! It's @Eisenyote (twt)! It's @AshSerigala (twt)! It's @koshiro-aura.studio! It's a bunch of cuties! Just some of the cool people I met at FWA, by no means all 🥰 #fursuit #FWA2026

Dialed in the FreakPupper today, and I'm ecstatic as ever! While plenty of work remains with the blendshapes, a retexture for a friend, and other odds and ends, it's amazing to use it as an actual avatar finally, and it's been one heck of a rollercoaster. More to come!

That moment when I step into my Blender project, encountering issues with fixes that were supposed to fix other issues. Little did I know. I didn’t need to fix those things. The joys of failing fast. 😂 Work on the FreakPupper resumes!~

It’s a DUDER!! 💕✨

A few simple steps, and the T-Pose for the FreakPupper has been fixed! It's always exhilarating, when I step away from this project for a few days and return to fixing the issue that stumped me. Bases: FreakHound: @ghostcabb.it PupperHD Remix: @cloudhusky.bsky.social and Tosca

After working on Unity this past weekend, I finally uploaded the first few iterations of the FreakPupper! I had some fun with missing bones, but now I get to tackle blendshapes and physbones. Onward we go! Bases used: Freakhound by @ghostcabb.it PupperHD Remix by @cloudhusky.bsky.social / Tosca

After using @juliawinterpaw.bsky.social paint method for fur in Substance Painter, I finished the texture for the FreakPupper for now. I'm pretty happy with the end results! 😁

I'm happy to share WIP pics of the Blender project! I mixed @cloudhusky.bsky.social's PupperHD Remix with @ghostcabb.it's Freakhound, making the FreakPupper. I still need to do some minor adjustments to the Blender model, and then I need to finish the actual textures for it.
