Then, here is the reference model I made for Ardea, compared to how she looks in DQIX itself.
But I want her to make friends have a bigger role in the story, so I say that that trait has waned as a result of her spending so long on the Protectorate. The fact she doesn’t have her halo is deliberate even if it doesn’t completely match canon, since I’m pretty sure her source game (Dragon Quest IX) establishes that having the halo is what hides Celestrians from mortal perception. But, it turns out someone had ported the character models from Dragon Quest XI into MMD, so I was able to use those as a basis, and for being a rather hasty construction I think it ended up being okay? Here is a comparison between the model I put together to represent her, and her official art from her source: So, putting together Pavo’s reference model was probably trickier than Ardea’s, mainly because I didn’t know how well I could actually make her look like Pavo in the styles of MMD models I’m most familiar with. Reblogs of this post are appreciated, but by no means required! I also had to construct both of our reference models myself (since Pavo only has a sprite in her source game), so I’ve included some clearer looks at both of them under the readmore! I created it with the “intimacy” prompt given by in mind, since I like to think a Celestrian’s wings are something very personal to them, and they don’t usually allow many (or any) others to touch them. This is my piece for the seventh day of sapphic September - I’ve made it a week in, yay! - showing my self-insert Ardea helping Pavo brush out her wing feathers.

Regardless, I- I appreciate your assistance, with helping me care for my wings in this way.” I still do not feel comfortable admitting such to them. “You know, Pavo, I really don’t think the other two would mind if you told them what you were.” And that's why I'm gonna have them being teased by Puzzle boys because I can as long as I follow the rules :)īen and Rex Ripped by:kalezer Exported by:lupalahĮffects used: GreenerShader Moon, DDarkShader, Post Point Light, AutoLuminous, PowerDOF, Firefly His eyes also need big changes because I can't make him look up without the eyes popping out from the head model :) Ben's model is freaking short than Rex's but I said "hey let's take advantage of that!"Īlso I edited Ben's head to be aproximately the same size as Rex's and NOT 4 times bigger. There's a 3rd shot but I don't feel like sharing it yet.
You don't need to know that I spent almost 2 hours on the first shot alone with effects and everything. "Well if someone didn't return late from the mission, I would be sleeping." "Well, I passed by to see that my alien superhero is still awake at this time of the night." These two guys wrecked my patience so much that I don't even know where to post this so here you go, on my main.
