Vivi on a Kart.
Vivi is this bunny girl I drew and later modeled. Now I've made her playable in the 1999 Acclaim's cult classic Racing game, Re-Volt... Specifically, the fanmade OpenGL Port, RVGL. This took me 11 & a half days to model, texture, and implement from start to finish. It was a fun project, honestly.
The original (and mostly) raw boxart. Hand-drawn, using Staedtler pens and some Crayola pencil crayons.
The in-game boxart, edited in Photoshop. Given a much cleaner look, and purged the papery texture by posterizing, while adding some cleaning & touch-ups here & there.
Main skin (Note that the in-game version had some faces double-sided).
"Diives In" is based off the artist of the same name. Famous for his short animations related to mostly Pokemon, he has a de-saturated set of colors, let alone dark red outlines, hence the crude-looking style.
"Looking Skarp" is based off the Honduran artist, Gerph. This theme is based off his Skarp World character, Skarpne. Only this & Diives are based off porn artists.
This skin in particular I had to remap the side vent-things to get the stripes looking good.
"The Other Viv" is based off C.E. Cameron's webcomic, Somewhere Other. This particular theme is based off the titular protagonist, Jo, where most of the colors are based off her, even the mark on Viv's cheek.
The splattered paintjob on the side vents can be based off Jo's black arm, but the splatter could also resemble the in-universe Nebulus which is a gooey substance.
"Stand Simone" is based off Rhea Burtram's art. The name actually refers to her username, RheaSimone1. My favourite skin of the bunch. Like Diives, she uses a more bright set of colors, but her shading is what stands out.
Now the back decal is just her art I shamelessly ripped over. She's too good & too cute to pass up. Besides, it looks dull without it.
The earliest screenshot of the Kart. I didn't do any concept art for the car, so I let my mind & imagination do it's magic.
The second screenshot on the project is bare bones. The wheels was originally going to be a twisted design, but it ends up looking bad. Plus, the kart is temporarily vertex painted.
This features an early Viv model. Originally much smaller and cartoony-looking.
An updated design with first instance of textures.
Early main skin textures.
Removed the contemporary vertex colors with model shading.
A WIP on the Diives skin.
A reinforced front bumper. This was made due to the kart's tendency to be unstable when playtesting. The collision file has to be updated to better suit the bumper.
A WIP of Rhea's texture. Originally, she's smiling like this, but changed the mouth because it kinda looks off-putting when racing and she had this grin on her face.
In-Game screenshot.
An early idea when I atempt to implement cloth physics for her hair. Result says otherwise.
Dragster Viv.
The Diives skin with incomplete parameters., hence her arms are lower than it should be.
Cockpit view.
A bunch of wabbits came to race.
