@analog pike
i had an idea for a 3rd faction
colonial and warden refugies/turncoats who have lost faith in their countries constantly fighting each and dying for no reason. they went far-far west on large arks to a series of large islands, where they plan to end the constant war once and for all
white uniforms to represent equality between both groups
advanced technology combining both nations
specialise in recon, spies, and sabotage
less population (2 or 4 shirts for every spawn)
little resources (less nodes in their territory)
untapped fuel deposits (more oil wells)
hit and run tactics (encumbrance reduction)

Hi guys, some of you may remember that almost a year ago i made a warden AC in Lego, well now i have decide to try the instructions mode of stud.io (which turns out is way easier to use than what i initially thought) and made the AC instructions (mostly because out of the three vehicles i have made is the simples one and the only one which is close to being buildable in real life)
sorry i couldnt upload the PDF, is too heavy
carmine jolt
What I'd assume Silas Maro would look like
dire plinth
@carmine jolt nice, pay attention to the head, the eyes more precisely. His left eye isn't lined up with the right one, so it looks like it isn't sitting on a curved shape (shape of the head)
As a general rule, think it in perspective it is curved and going downwards, the line I am talking about.
As it is, it looks like the eyes are on a straight line, which isn't giving enough volume.
untold jasper
he's looking to side slightly

I think that is the problem Morrighan is wording; the right eye looks like to be on a curve, while the left eye doesn't

@buoyant crest @untold jasper haha, my bad, no, I meant, the corner of the eyes and middle axis that goes through the pupil should be a curved line, if you give me a sec, I will explain immediately what I meant.
untold jasper
yeah I know what you mean
his right eye is kinda not facing forward
as is the left one
which isn't really how a human should work
umbral topaz
i added the ballista instructions if someone is curious how it is made
hope you like it, if you want to ask me anything about the instructions, feel free to do it
dire plinth
kinda what I meant
if it is not tilting the head that much, or facing to the side a bit too much, then just find the best perspective for your drawing, tho the rule itself applies anyway.

made a Grimm for my RWBY AU
.
name: swarmers
generation: 1
maker: Salem
.
these pack hunters are around 3'5 and very agile, but not much of a threat on their own so they usually travel in large packs of 10-20 led by a pack leader. when led by a vagrant swarmer, the pack size can reach 80 to over 100
.
the death of a vagrant swarmer usually causes the rest to either run away, or become disorientated and sometimes attack their own
.
an incident in Atlas was reported to have faced a swarm of over 2000 lead by over 8-9 vagrants. it was so bad, they had to bring out their airships to disperse them

Could you fit a powerfull enough Tesla Coil to kill into an AP round?
bleak elk
It depends on what You want to kill.
obsidian trench
cosmic bough
Kill the crew inside or destroy the electronics
rancid carbon
doubt it would be able to do either of those. The coil would need to survive the initial hit first, and even then it wouldn't really be possible to do any damage with it. Electricity flows along the path of least resistance, so assuming the armor is RHA it would probably just disperse along the armor and into the ground. Electronics are generally insulated as well and would probably only be damaged if the tesla coil managed to pass very near to them. but thats even assuming there is a battery onboard a AP round that could power a tesla coil for long enough to cause damage. A tesla coil with any decent range would require a very high voltage and a large amp pull. I suppose you could use a massive capacitor, but all in all a kinetic energy round would probably be much more useful than a tesla coil.
daring ferry
And the whole tank would act as a Faraday cage, so the crew won't be affected by the electricity as it wouldn't go through them
rancid carbon
well if its attached to the projectile, it does have a chance to get inside of the tank
if its close enough to a crewman it could travel through them, but by then might as well just hit the crewman with shrapnel

What would be the most effective way to decrew a tank wihount causing major damage to the tank itself
Considering you'd have to somehow have to force the crew to bail, you'd probably need to find a way to break the NBC seal
You could try tracking it in hostile territory.
rancid carbon
artillery launched mines is an idea I have always been interested in. Mobility kill is the best way to get a crew out of a tank. You could also try something like an AP gas or smoke shell, based around an APHE shell but the HE filler being replaced with gasses, although if you are penning a tank there is a high chance of damaging a vital component

Haven't dealt with OCs in years. I never came up with any cool ones.

but are OC strictly standalone characters or just any character you've whipped up?

well SCP-239 IS an official character in the SPC universe, but people come up with diffrent AUs of the SCP timeline, and the "broken masquerade" is one of them
apart from her, i only have 2 other kind of-OP OCs; which are Blaze and Gold
SCP-239 is a reality warper and is on the level of 2 of the 3 gods of my OC multiverse, though her powers are held back and the true nature of them are behind a lie

These images I made in Pixlr because I wanted to make some nice top down blueprints of my favorite bunker bases, but it would be nice if there was a program that could snap bunker and trench pieces together instead of having draw them individually and then put them together.
remote lynx
to my knowledge there isn't, but I do support making it
I'm trash at websites though
you can ask in #code-talk
ok this art is just too damn precious

umbral topaz
hi guys, i have a small dilemma, on the flatbed tracks, the ones on the top look a lot closer to the real ones in the ingame model, but the track isnt really held in place by anything so they would just come off, on the bottom one the track is secure in place and should work in real life, but doesnt look as nice
which version should i choose?
buoyant crest
I think the bottom one looks fine
sick birch
^ agree

@umbral topaz maybe just one sprocket?

@drowsy garnet maybe try to use sketchfab for a bit of perspective reference
drowsy garnet
what i have rn is a redraw
already
so i wanted to do at least a bit more of mine imput
also i'd probably have to use game itself for refence
couse it doesn't let tou move separate parts
unless i'm retarded which i probably am
daring ferry
Or you can get onto the game files, export the tank model and its s kill skeleton and rotate the turret in 3d software ๐ค
drowsy garnet
xD
daring ferry
Painful if you're not used to, but hey, it works x)
drowsy garnet
I'm actually doing 2D animation in blender :P
i intially wanted to check out blender couse of the 3D stuff, but then i saw you can do 2D animation and just said fuck it
๐
wait i think i broke the code
i can just simple perspecite versions
(directly from top, directly frrom side)
and then rotate them on X or Y axis to make them in a right perspecite
- combine them
daring ferry
Numpad hotkeys?
drowsy garnet
?
daring ferry
You can use numpad 1,3 and 7 to go to front, side and top orthographic view in the 3d viewport
drowsy garnet
oh, no no
i just select the strokes, press r and chose which axis i rotate them on
all in 2D
well kinda fake 2D but shuush
but it doesn't matter anyway
i'd have to make it all from direct view, and then connect for each frame
i guess i can use this technique if i get desparate
for now i'm desparate so i'll try a tutorial
hmmm, no tank turning turret in 2D tutorials
daring ferry
You can add rigs to grease pencil characters iirc
drowsy garnet
who would've though
You can add rigs to grease pencil characters iirc
@daring ferry yeeeeeah
i heard about it too
might try it too
daring ferry
Maybe try a rough model of the turret in the 3d viewport, place it in the good place for the camera and rotate it for reference if you're really desperate
Add cube, extrude and scale down a face and it is done
daring ferry
np :)
drowsy garnet
lmao there's so much stuff in blender that i don't know yet ;_:
just found a function that moves selected strokes to a diffrent layer
just like that
and i was copy pasting it and later deleting
daring ferry
It would take you years to learn everything
drowsy garnet
with my atitude i'd be more like decades
remote lynx
I don't like blender much
To my knowledge you can only move an object by dragging on one of the three arrows
daring ferry
What
remote lynx
oh?
daring ferry
You can also grab them on a plane or relative to the cameras
remote lynx
I wanna move them with WASD
daring ferry
Learn the 1000+ shortcuts you filthy person
remote lynx
moving an object literally anywhere else is 5 times faster than in blender
or even 3d unity for that matter
daring ferry
You can always move them with the position bars in the side panel ๐
remote lynx
again, with the mouse
daring ferry
You can
remote lynx
I use the mouse to aim, not to move
daring ferry
Just press g
drowsy garnet
๐ only dipped my filthy brain in the 3D blender but even i know you can use 1 bilion methods
plus it's mostly a matter of getting used to stuff
daring ferry
Yeah, most of the stuff to learn is keyboard shortcuts and what does what
remote lynx
Hell, when I tried to look into a 3rd party ship construction set for the unreleased Starbase I found it was a blender file with all the components
Then I looked at it and said "fuck that"
drowsy garnet
xD
daring ferry
X)
drowsy garnet
it is overwhellming as fuck true
daring ferry
It's for sure not the most beginner-friendly software
remote lynx
hand placing 60 bulkheads by using those 3 arrows is torture waiting to happen
drowsy garnet
xD
remote lynx
I wanna use W and S for X axis, A and D for the Z axis, and Space and Ctrl for the Y axis
daring ferry
Like in SFM?
drowsy garnet
๐ฐ
remote lynx
would be so much faster
Like in SFM?
Like in practically every game that lets you pick up or place objects
daring ferry
You can zoom on a piece by selecting it and pressing numpad .
remote lynx
Space Engineers anyone
daring ferry
Or alt+middle mouse click on the where you want your view to orbit around
remote lynx
Hm, or have those keyboard controls move the view and just drag the object with your mouse in front of you
having to orbit doesn't sound all that great
daring ferry
It's not a problem once you get familiar with it
(saying this as an SFM user before)

its an art style maybe its voluntary to make it uncanny

I'm making very artistic bunker base blueprints. What are your thoughts on how I show the difference between various bunker tears.
high ledge
i'd say make the wood maybe go horizontal on tier 2 instead of vertical
remote lynx
yeah, that works
imo this looks decent
https://unblast.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Concrete-Texture-3.jpg
I might be wrong tho
it's just that the scratches in the concrete and the mostly homogenous color makes it look more like metal
I understand that's kind of what you want so you can tell it apart at a glance, but still
ok ok I'll stop
the walls in your picture look fine. Brighten up the floor and you should be good

I'll show the animation soon ;p
at least hopefully
i guess i can show the 2nd frame for now
still kinda scuffed, but it's good enough
thorn nymph
38 more to go then 
drowsy garnet
2 first are hardest
the movement is simple, so figuring out the frames was biggest issue
You need 40 frames per second
@high ledge also why 40 frames per second?
๐?
24 frames per sec is regular for movies and stuff i belive
30 - 60 is more common for games

don't worry i'm just redrawning foxhole models and then animating them
carmine jolt
Like rotoscoping? That's pretty neat ngl
drowsy garnet
rotoscoping?
oh yeah i guess
altough wait no
these guys trace it frame by frame
carmine jolt
Oh, I didn't quite understand. Are you drawing it from live gameplay?
drowsy garnet
i just trace 1st frame and then animate rest
carmine jolt
Oooh. That's even more intuitive
drowsy garnet
tracing stuff frame by frame would be neat tho...
idk if i could actually pull it off
definetly less thinking
which is a plus
buoyant crest
actually, you can already have a viewable animation at 12 fps, although it can only be short before it starts wearing your eyes down. Although, I have seen a few videos where they used a program to generate frames between existing frames, and that worked quite smoothly
buoyant crest
for a first animation, I advise just trying 15 fps, as you can always add frames later to adjust speed
daring ferry
You can somehow turn you 2d grease pencil drawings in 3d iirc
drowsy garnet
altough not sure how advanced it is
daring ferry
It would be a lot faster this way, but it would be less of a good lesson for 2d animation I guess
drowsy garnet
I watched a tutorial where he just set a model as a surface and then just drew on it
buoyant crest
here is an animation of mine, and (if you loook at the movement) it can be quite choppy and still feel like movement
drowsy garnet
dang, looks neat

i kinda wish blender would count how long i spend in it
welp that's one tank done
*more or less
halcyon lantern
You know, I'd advise to make the turret turn separately while the tank isn't moving
and then once everything's done, just move it around the frame layers
drowsy garnet
that's what i dud
halcyon lantern
Cause rn it's just one frame of turret turning
drowsy garnet
the result is trash couse i cant draw :P
halcyon lantern
not really a problem since it's just geometrics
just gotta add 1 or 2 inbetween frames
daring ferry
you can always model it, here is a quickly made one ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
no skill? do 3d lowpoly!
daring ferry
lowpoly is good if you texture it tho
cosmic bough
I ment the turret shape
buoyant crest
@remote lynx I just literally overlayed the pictures and redrew them as quick as possible. There is barely any shadows going on or anything, the hands are pictures I found on google and the explosion was improv but its so short who cares
daring ferry
@cosmic bough oh, it wasnt made to be accurate x)

Actually, rhe shakiness animation are just 3 drawn frames which I put in random order

that is some good workflow organisation here

desperatly rushing an MBT
We don't have MBTs
drowsy garnet
?
bright jay
he means battle tanks i think
drowsy garnet
i am confused
remote lynx
We have something the devs call battle tank, but really it's a medium tank
it's like calling the Panther tank an MBT (Main Battle Tank)
I don't think the devs ever explained why they insist on calling it a battle tank
night bronze
its a tank which fights in a battle... seems clear to me...
halcyon lantern
In the game it acts as a heavy tank tbh
halcyon lantern
It's slow as hell, has lots of HP and armour
Light tanks rn fill the gap between light and medium
night bronze
yeah BT is a heavy tonk
halcyon lantern
and whatever the silverhand is
night bronze
silverhand is medium tank on steroids
drowsy garnet
silverhand is the actuall MBT
mobile, high firepower, strong armour
change my mind
rancid carbon
I prefer keeping the eras separate
the more wishy washy you get with terminology the more confusing it gets
remote lynx
All of community calls it MBT
I really wonder what the community is going to do when they add a vehicle whose acronym is already taken
daring ferry
laughs in sh and sh
drowsy garnet
Yeah lmao just use context or full word
remote lynx
Or use the actual word
like calling the MHT a Mortar Carrier
at least you're calling the light tank a light tank

The gun doesnt have any recoil
daring ferry
the lines of the turret brutally change thickness at some point
drowsy garnet
oh yeah it's a flaw
i used multiple lines earlier but later decided to make it cleaner
isn't gonna matter once i color and tie everything up ;P
The gun doesnt have any recoil
@cosmic bough you mean that it shouldn't have? or that you don't see it
i though that it could have no recoil
but then though that it'd be cooler if it had and then forgot to check if it was a thing or not ;P
daring ferry
You can have the gun "retract" and go back to original position quickly, but you might also need a little movement of the tank chassis to really sell it
