Notes

Details, details… - 11Apr2017

This was a very challenging Pod Pal to make! In EVE, Otto wears body armor that has a lot of white highlighting on it in odd geometic shapes. Converting the most significant of these details to match the proportions of the doll required a lot of trial and error. I frogged the body several times and had to work pretty carefully before coming to the result I did.

In-game, the armor also has neural sockets on the back of it which was a pretty important detail to include. This also took several tries to get right. In the end I learned how to do surface slip stitches and I think it turned out pretty well!
