Asset: Astronaut (chilling, steering, dead)

Haven't checked in for a while. Ho boy I gots lots to look at! Thanks Ian.

Manuel Grewer

Awesome! ...wait ... what? that refraction is in eevee? Sick!

Dawson Henderson

this is sick, great work as always! this reminds me so much of Prospect

Zachary Garner

Oh man I'm definitely going to use these. Thanks Ian!

Thanks for all your love, Ian. I refer to you to my friends and colleagues as “my mentor”.At this point, they are on a first name basis with you! Haha. Hey, just a thought while I have it, any chance you could do a Patreon Q&A live stream. You are a wealth of knowledge and some questions are kind of hard to google. I’d love to see you revisit camera tracking too, I feel like there is some small step I am missing. I am sure you have plenty planned with 3.0 about to roll out, but thought I’d give some input! Seriously love you with all my heart, bud!!!

Shawn Hawkinson

So cool, thanks Ian! I’m working on a donut shoppe in space right now. Perhaps he’ll be one of the patrons. ☺️ I’ll post it on my Instagram when it’s done if you want to see. I’m littlewizardstudios on Instagram.

Phil South

I thought the exact same thing

I like that it covers the full range of astronaut activities! ;D

Lukas Sprehn

Is that a scan of Adam Savage??!!

I'm ready to see them all over instagram and r/blender artworks ;D

What a wonderful surprise. You never know what each day will bring - and this day has just gotten off to a most excellent start. Quickly rendered a few frames in a scene I'm working on and it looks marvelous. And oddly enough I watched Swordfish last night on one of the movie channels.

nice

Justin

the quality of assets you share here on the regular is just crazy

AMAZINGG!!!

it has animation! But the FBX materials are (as always) lacking all the tweaks/node-work of the blender version (and I have no idea how well the glass'll work). The difficulty I had last time with the spray paint guy is I made the project in blender 3.0, and trying to make it work in 2.9 was wildly difficult! Which is exactly how I did it again, but with custom rest-poses and stuff it wasn't that hard to fix it up this time, fortunately.

Hey you got the FBX working! Sweet

Ian Hubert

DAMN! You're right. The oft' forgotten 4th Astronaut Activity: Screaming.

Jostein Lie Svalheim

Feel like there should be a screaming astronaut in there between the steering astronaut and the dead astronaut. "A story in four poses" kinda thing. Missed opportunity. Otherwise 5/5. Love your shit

So cool, keen to try out Polycam thanks Ian. Also if you use an app like Filmic Pro on the iPhone you could have some greater control over the camera settings an bypass the auto exposure :) Super keen to see Prospect as well!

That's great !!! I like your art style !!!!

I was just yesterday trying to figure out how to model astronauts this is surreal

Greg Beaudry

So cool! Any chance seeing behind the scenes for the scanning rig? Also maybe seeing all the Prospect gear?? It was such an original movie and all the props were so immersive!
