Everyone who follows me - I'm deleting this tumblr and creating a new one.

My new ana tumblr is code-n-ctrl.

If you are witchy, my new main tumblr (my ana tumblr is now a side blog) is the-shadow-shapeshifter.

Due to a lull at work, I found myself with some free time.

So I decided to 3d model a furby because I couldn’t find a decent one online.

It came out ok in the end. But the process came with quite a bit of nightmare fuel.

I first did as much as I could without having to touch the hair sim. I had no idea how to do hair sim.

But I “luckily” found a quick hair sim button in blender. So that was looking quite nice. However I was a fool. I hadn’t yet touched any sliders on the hair particle system. And i still needed to add colour.

This should have been my first warning. I had to hide the face plate, so i could remove some of the hair bits that were clipping it. I wasn’t prepared.

Then I decided I wanted to have another bit of light hair on top. simply add a square under the hair and press the hair sim button.

simple.

right?

I don’t know exactly how I managed this, but somehow i had made the particle system use the data from the gravity sim to generate more hair.

I made the mistake of zooming out.

…

and zooming out more

My computer didn’t like that. The hair, It just kept going, but the more I zoomed out the more my computer slowed down. So this is as far as i was willing to push it.

After fixing that issue I put a bit more effort prettying the model up. First I added colour to the faceplate and its different parts, then I cooked up a quick and dirty procedural texture for the eyes.

finally I made a front hair sim for the white belly, this led to another problem. at some point the baked physics started getting…

weird.

no mater what I did the hair would just start growing a few frames in.

I tried everything I could! I scrapped the physics bake, I trawled through all the particle systems sliders. I changed numbers randomly. I even did a full uv unwrap, which I had been avoiding. nothing fixed it.

I really didn’t want to end up with something not a furby at the end of all this work. so i kept looking for a solution.

Then i found out it animated.

In the end I just saved the file (I’d realized I hadn’t saved once up until that point. almost had heart attack when it froze for a few seconds while saving), then closed and reopened blender. Of course the old, “turn it off then on again” worked perfectly.

So there you go, I now have a slightly cursed furby 3d model.

A nonbinary person is anyone whose gender identity falls outside the binary of purely male and purely female. That's the only requirement. Nonbinary people can use any pronouns. Nonbinary pronouns can dress in anyway that they want. Nonbinary people can use any sublabels (or no labels at all) that they want.

Respect all nonbinary folks!

[ID: Pair of reddit comments. One person says “People are to labels what boxes are to cats. You try to put a cat in a box and it hates it and it hates you. You leave some boxes out for the cat and it will gladly sit in one.” The second person comments “This is an amazing analogy.” End ID]

I wish all bisexual nonbinary people a very pleasant evening

[ID: The running away balloon meme. In the first panel, a person, labelled “me”, reaches for a yellow balloon, labelled “wearing clothes I like”. In the second panel, a second person, labelled “random people making judgements about me and my gender based on the clothes I’m wearing”, holds back the first person, who looks nervous. End ID]

being non-binary is sooooo exhausting... everyone wants a piece of you, you’re hot, you’re funny, you’re cooler than ice cold, you dress impeccably... smash that reblog button if you too think non-binary people deserve to be given 1000000 dollars in cash.

trans people are allowed to struggle with transition. its not always easy or painless. but that doesnt invalidate their transness.

Being masculine does not make you evil. It doesn’t make you an asshole. It doesn’t even make you a man… It just makes you masculine.

Masculinity is not exclusive to cis-men.

You can be a trans-man and be masculine.

You can be a cis-woman and be masculine.

You can be a trans-woman and be masculine.

You can identify any way possible and still be masculine.

Masculinity should never be restricted by biology, and it’s ridiculous that people think that way. Anyone can enjoy being called handsome and masculine if that is what they want, and there is no shame in that ever.

If you are masculine, no matter your gender, you deserve to be seen, and you deserve respect.
