I finally got around to doing some texture painting for my new avatar. Every free program I tried for texture painting ended up crashing or not working on linux, so I decided to just stick to blender. The problem was that it would take several minutes to update after every brush stroke. This somehow fixed itself after several days of frustration, although the blur brush is still incredibly slow...

Anyway, here are some renders I did! I might post full resolution images later...

This avatar is a sort of kitbash, but it's mostly from Nicoreda's Wicker Beast. I also used the tail from Lazu's Smink and the paws from Habatwo's Ligeia. The head's base is also from the Wicker Beast, but heavily modified. I removed all of the spikes and did a lot of sculpting to make the shape resemble a fox. I still need to work on the weight painting, especially in the arms and elbows. There's some pinching which wouldn't go away, even with corrective smooth and blur, and I even tried copying the weights from the original base.
