Rue’s Blog

I was browsing Booth because I wanted to update my look in VRChat to match my new Rue look, and I bought a new hairstyle! 🎮

It’ll take me a while to optimize (it has 98 bones and 10k tris) so I’ll still have my default Selestia long hair for a bit longer, but I’m excited by how cute it looks!

A screenshot of Blender showing my VRChat avatar. My long hair has been replaced with cute short hair! The hair has not been integrated with my avatar yet, and the scene statistics have lots of big numbers, so it’s clear that I’ve only loaded the hair in—there’s still more work to be done before I can actually upload this to VRChat!

I have 25 followers on Mastodon, so I did a quick 36 minute sketch to celebrate! 🎨

Hmm, maybe it would’ve been more fun to do a 25 minute sketch. I think I was still struggling with the clothes at that point though!

It’s me celebrating 25 followers on Mastodon! I’m wearing a crop top with Prami on the front and a bikini bottom with the mastodon logo on it.

My sketch today is a little more rough than my usual sketches because I was feeling a little low motivation today. 🎨

It took me a bit to decide how to draw the rolled up sleeves theme. I think my idea to sketch myself rolling up my sleeves to sketch worked out pretty well!

My sketch for today’s #腕まくり theme from pixiv今日のお題-sensei. It’s me sketching with my sleeves rolled up! It’s a pretty rough, more “sketchy” sketch, so it leaves a bit more to imagination and interpretation with course lines and messy areas.

I’m pretty happy with my new hair! 🎮

I tried my best to make it float like my old hair, and from what my friends say, it sounds like I did a pretty good job even though it’s shorter~ And it’s nice not having to worry about my hair clipping or floating into someone’s face now!

A selfie I took in VRChat! I have my new short hair, and my side-tail is floating a little bit! I’m standing in front of a mirror, so you can see my back as well. With shorter hair, my hair stays closer to my head, so it doesn’t take up as much space anymore!

I sketched a straw hat today! 🎨

I spent a really long time on this—I think it might have been because I got a bit distracted today. I usually watch a YouTube video while I’m sketching, and today I decided to watch the VRChat Community Meetup event stream~

I think it turned out okay though!

My pixiv今日のお題-sensei sketch of today’s #麦わら帽子 theme! It’s me in a straw hat! I’m holding it on one side! And I’m wearing a dress! I tried to make my hair a little more “flowy” this time but it didn’t really work out.
