Quick render of the green blob guy. Tried to fix up a few things but it doesn't look right to me. I'm horrible at human anatomy so I would love some suggestions (assuming anyone else has any clue).

If the previous post does not make any sense, please adjust your brain and try again.

When in doubt just grab yourself an image like that one, put it in the background of your viewport and modell your reference human on it. It'll give you perfect proportions.

@TheUnlogicalOne, the chair is looking really nice... I actually like seeing it all by itself as you can really see all the nice details, but it does look cool in the room with the other chairs too!!! nice job!

Thanks for that picture. I matched it up with my model and made a few adjustments. It was close but off by enough to look weird. Mainly the torso was too thick and the legs a bit short.

Hmm could be time to resurrect pink man hehe Looks much better now: it should help you get the scale right!

Visit my Endless Pluto Station project, I'm still working on it, honest!

Heh, don't get the reference but I'm sure its funny.

Anyways, I had to rebuild the foot rest a bit, I couldn't shrink it down to fit the new body properly.

I looked into adding a gap or some sort of seal around the raised consoles but I modeled myself into a corner and I don't want to rebuild them. I guess everyone will just have to pretend they retract.

Looks much better! The proportions seem to fit a human shape better.

'Pink man' was a human sized pink blob I started to make into a properly functioning human, but I never really finished him.. people are hard!

You could add such a device to indicate that they are retractable. Wouldn't be much modelling and you also wouldn't have to change any of your existing geometry.

Though I guess it would push it a bit into the Steampunk theme and take away a bit from your sleek polished look. Maybe if you adjusted it a bit to look more streamlined and not so bulky

Thanks for the idea. I tried it without the teeth on the rail but it didn't look like anything. I'm not sure if it's obvious what they are but they look all right so it's all good.
