Description
Ah, yes. That is the question we all ask ourselves at some point...Here's a silly little update I thought y'all might enjoy. lol
Yas! Shape keys! They is happening! I am so excited to finally see some expression on her face after nearly a year of having it remain static. This makes me really, really happy. You can tell because of the period I used to punctuate that sentence.
And no, her eyes are not textures, I added all of that after I took the screenshot (credit to FinnAkira for the eye image). I've decided to leave texturing until last, since it seems that's where I need to learn the most. o.O
So yeah, a rig is in place, (just need to fine tune it. Like, a loooot ) and the shape keys are coming along. This project is coming along swimmingly!
Soon, Tails. Soon.

You have no idea how stoked I am just for expressions alone. Although, this can probably be attributed to having used the terrible Cosmo model from garry's mod.
Although, one kind of minor thing I noticed, (And this is more of a texture thing then anything) is that the eyes . In the show she has more circular eyes then the rest of the cast, whereas everyone else had more ovular eyes, like she has here.

Good observation! In all honesty, I'm taking a bit of creative freedom here, taking parts about her from the show and adding (or subtracting) parts that might not make total sense in 3D. As for her eyes, there are a couple of reasons for this:
One, consistency. All the other characters have the more elliptical eyes, and I feel like that might make my model feel a little more genuine when next to the others.
Two, I'm a bit lazy. Lol I just think it's easier to use what I already have, instead of making a whole new eye texture from scratch (as painless and harmless as it might be).
So that was a long reply. Lol I hope this clarified things. Glad you're enjoying the model! I hope to bring it to the masses very soon!

I did notice some creative liberties here and there. Her arms, for example, seem kinda long when compared to what length they were in the show. But that's something that probably will be for the benefit of the model, considering she can reach for things longer, which will make for less awkward poses.
I do suppose that it makes her fit in better with the other models. Which is good, because, besides Sticks, Cosmo is the only character introduced in a show that I feel fits in really well with the game characters. It's something you can kinda notice with old SatAM characters, and especially old Archie characters, where they feel like more generic Western anthropomorphic animals, as opposed to Sonic styled ones.
I am curious on how you're going to release her. Are you just going to put up a download link on deviantart, or do you think you'll put her up on the Steam workshop?

Actually, her arms are a bit long because they're a bit long. XD It will be fixed, but I feel like it only needs to change subtly.
Anyway, I will probably post this model on the Steam Workshop, with a link to that page on my DeviantArt. It will be better that way, since downloading it from the workshop will automatically implement the model into the correct file hierarchy. Makes it easy, especially since that makes it most compatible with SFM.

Ah, okay, so you too have noticed it.,
OKay, good. It's also good because that way more people will be able to download it. Gets it better known.

This is a model that I hope to port to SFM for animation. I feel it's long overdue for her to have her own proper 3D model!

Ah I see well good luck with that
