Just the other week I finished up my 3rd redo of my AVTP Tallest Red and Purple models. Here they are showcased in a lil scene that might be familiar to some of you.
Back in October of 2022 I finished version 1 of Red and Purple. They were my first ever finished character models. To showcase them, I put them in a little restaurant scene.
When I finished my 3rd version of them, I decided to put the new models in that same scene to compare the differences.
And DANG! What a difference! It really blew my mind hahah. The background was barely touched, the only significant difference is the character rigs of Tallest Red and Purple from Version 1 to Version 3!
Yea, the old models are lookin a bit like handsome Squidward. You can make fun haha.
This is why I tell folks, you gotta keep pushing to get better at something. It is achievable, but it's not without perseverence and time!

PINNED POST!
This will be updated periodically!
Welcome to my reblog blog! This is the secondary blog to @bluecolty , and it’s a collection blog to contain all of the amazing artwork that I’ve wanted to reblog but haven’t had a space to! I’m still super new to Tumblr, and it took me a while to realize the importance of reblogs. I don’t do a lot of reblogs/retweets, mainly because I don’t want to bother people with them. I find they can sometimes clog up an artists blog/account, and I miss seeing the artists actual artwork. So to keep my blog clear and also provide exposure to art that I love- I’ve made this blog!
To make THIS blog tempting to follow over my main blog, I’ll also be reblogging my own art! Or you can follow both, that’s fine too!
On this blog, you’ll see reblogs for:
- Invader Zim
(This list will be updated as time goes on LOL)
Important tags to search!
#reblog for general reblogs, #blues reblogged art for my own reblogged art!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask em in the “ask me” button!

Oh boy, my model and rig for Xeon are finally done! I've got a lot of info in this post, because dang it's been a journey haha.
Over the past month and a half I've built this lad, rigged him, put him into VRChat, made a 2D background to showcase him, and shot him out of a rocket in spite. Well, not really, but oh man sometimes I wish I could have. *wheeze*
The Xeon rig and model features a new rigging system, a better model, better organization, and a whole host of improvements over my last model of Medea. And dang, I'm excited to dive into em!
First up is the lil fun showcase. Using the new rigging system, I did lots of fun poses! And I'm super happy with how the toon shader looks too. For his model, I focused on refining the topology and making the weight painting better. Noodle arms also helps a ton too! These improvements really helped get it looking as not 3D as possible hahaha.
Keep reading for more of the behind the scenes stuff!
Yes, this is a 2D background! Way back in the day I used to make backgrounds to showcase my finished models... but I kind of strayed away from that. With Xeon though, I decided to get back into making backgrounds, and instead of doing it in Blender- I drew it!
This is the first ever one I've publicly published, and only one of 3 I've ever done. I first laid out the perspective in Blender and the lined/colored it in Clip Studio Paint. The model of Xeon was rendered in Blender on a separate layer, then I dropped him in the CSP background.
There's defintiely some wrong things with my 2D background, but for the first colored one I've done, I'm pretty happy with it. Its all about practice, and as I gain more experience I hope to better refine the Blender perspective to 2D pipeline.
This time for Xeon, I wanted to massively push my rigging skills. So with the help of Rigify, I've done just that. The rig for Xeon features a very advanced and customizable rigging system that allows me to pose him in so many different ways.
Oh and also, noodle arms and legs! That was a thing I've been meaning to add to my characters for so long, I just haven't known how to. But now with the new rig I can do just that!
As you can see below, the rig is also very user friendly. It's definitely complex, but it should be a lot more standard and a lot more user friendly.
I can't wait to add this rig to all my future models as well!
That's all I have for ya'lls today, I hope you all enjoy him!

Made a lil gift for @xan-zenith, a model of their Irken OC, Xan! Xan has an absolutely wild bit of lore behind her, and I thought she'd be a ton of fun to make as a gift to them!
It was a super fun model to make, and it gave a good bit of practice too. I don't get a chance to model characters in a *lot* of different styles, so I try to jump on the oppertunity when I can.
Keep reading for more pictures and the comparison between the original reference turnaround!
More images, yay! I also started this model a few weeks ago but just finished up the finishing touches today. Oops haha.
Below you can compare between the original reference sheet (Also made by @xan-zenith found [HERE]
Enjoy lads!

I made something incredibly stupid and really funny last week.
I would tell you the context if I knew the context myself (I don't)
Some might say an obscure dream, some might say its things to come. But one thing is for certain, between Zim and a rapidly approaching mini cooper, my money is on the Cooper.
Although... he is Zim after all, so you never know what could happen.

My Blender model/rigs of Tallest Red and Purple from AVTP! Some of you that know me from elsewhere (Twitter or Discord) have seen these much earlier hehe, but I wanted to post em here too!
All in all they were about 25 hours of work, and are modeled after the AVTP style! They're fully posable with shape keys for the expressions!
I actually offer these for download, if you want to mess around with them or see how I did something. You're more than welcome to do so!
DOWNLOAD EM NOW OFF OF MY WEBSITE~
I know my website is a hot mess right now, I gotta finish it sometime here. I promise its functional though, just barebones haha.

Made a lil gift for @chicobrrr of her Irken OC, Dil!
I don't know much about Dil, all I know is that I absolutely loved her character design and Chico made a fantastic turnaround. Dil's outfit is a nice blend of traditional canon-grounded design and something unique, as are the colors and shading techniques.
Dil was lots of fun to turn into 3D! It gave me an oppertunity to try out some new material/shading techniques to match Chico's style, and it was great practice. It was a fun lil challenge. This was also my first time doing a background in Blender to showcase the model, rather than the default Blender gray background. It got old haha.
2D Turnaround made by @chicobrrr too!
Anyways though, enjoy Chico! More images below~

Did a lil art trade with @tee-doodles, this was my half.
No, seriously, this is a half. A half of an Irken. This is Kitt, Tee's OC that got Blender/3D'ified. He is half metal. Why is he half metal? Tee has some classic TeeLore ™ that will fill you in. Kitt was rebuilt after an accident, and he uhh, he was rebuilt. Kitt is an absolute lad, he's a true cutie.
Below is the 2D and 3D comparison, it was a ton of fun to bring him to life in 3D. A bit painful perhaps too… Kitt is the least symmertrical character I've ever made. As well as outlines, SO MANY OUTLINES. All in all, I'm super happy with how he turned out! Enjoy Tee 🥴

Here's a somewhat older project of mine, I recreated this scene from Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus in Blender! I wanted to share it though because I'm super happy with how it turned out haha. Above is a 4K version, just a still image!
Below is a video of my full animation stuffed in the middle of the movie hehe. My goal was to get it as close as possible to the original, and seamlessly fit into the movie. I'm pretty dang happy with how it looks!
Enjoy lads!

Today I finished up my first ever commission for @invaderlarx !
The lad in question? Carl Ridlington, a high school chemistry teacher. An oh so normal chemistry teacher. Definitely not at all the disguise for Irken Invader Larx. Nope, nuh uh.
Carl was done as a 'Basic Character Model' commission, and was only the second human I've ever made in Blender. He was a ton of fun to make, and also a good learning experience! Them dang humans, they got like, ears and noses and stuff. And HAIR. No wonder Irkens don't like people hahah.
Anyways, enjoy lads!

Here's another WIP that I started yesterday, uh oh. Anypne recognize this handsome lad? This is Szazs, by @tallest-marij! This lad is an ex-invader, now an assassin for the Tallest. But I don't want to steal too much thunder from Marij, I just had fun modeling the lad in Blender hahah.
I'm starting to wrap up my model of Xeon, so I ventured off quick with Szazs. It was fun to make a different style, and Marij's style is such a cool one. They worked with me the other day to help bring him to life in 3D. This was not a commission, just a fun project so I could expand my skills more. Plus I really enjoy this character haha. Thanks again Marij for the turnaround! It was a huge help in bringing him to life hehe.
The finished model of Xeon will be happening soon, I want to really dig in and learn how to make my rig even more advanced. But once that's done-- he'll be good to go! Almost everything else is done now. So that's exciting, finally after so long xD.
Anyways, that's about all I have for ya'lls. Enjoy!

I thought the ZIM army couldn't get any stupider. What's better and more stupid than 1,408 Zim's in Blender?
Hmm... lemme thin-- WHAT ABOUT 3,328 MINI COOPERS????
That's right. What you're looking at is a Blender file containing exactly 3,328 IZ-styled toon shaded MINI Coopers. (my friend and I counted.)
ALMOST twice as many Zim's. Twice the lag. Twice the chaos. And so... so... many Mini Coopers. It's truly a thing of beauty, a thing to behold. This is why I love Blender. I can do the stupidest stuff imaginable. But ngl, some of these would make a really cool wallpaper.

W O A H, some 2D drawings from me, the lad who has previously only posted Blender stuff? Wild xD. But yes! I've been learning how to draw these past few months, its been a ton of fun!
Here's 4 drawings I made of my character, Xeon! He's basically my Irkensona, but also just a fun character I enjoyed making (and drawing)! I'm still very much learning about the process of 2D art, and very much developing my skills. I drew this in the AVTP-ish style too!
I hope you all enjoy!
Big thanks to @noxeorn for the turnaround that made this guy possible. I look forward to completing the 3D Blender model for my lad, using Nox's turnaround. They're really awesome, and great for 3D modeling! Go check him out!
-----------------------------------
Some info about Xeon you say? Hmmmmm, lets see here~
He's uhh, just a tech support drone. He helps Navigators out a lot with silly tech questions. Sometimes even the Tallests, if those below him can't figure it out. Which is actually more than Xeon would prefer to happen. But he has fun though, all in a good days work.
He works on board The Massive, and is quite good at his job. This earned him the trust of the higher ranking Irkens to work in the more important parts of The Massive (and alongside more important Irkens). He usually does good at his job, but like everything else in the IZ universe, sometimes things outside his control are stupid. Why did the tech support drones get blamed for the 5 year power outage on Irk? They weren't the ones that built the power grid??? * sigh *
You can find him usually with his head stuffed in an Irken server, keeping The Massive chugging along smoothly-ish. Irken wifi goes down? Guess who gets called? A button not working on a control panel inside The Massive bridge? Guess who has to take the entire control panel apart to replace one stupid button. Mhm. Tallest Red can't get the slushie machine to work? Guess who has to drop everything and come IMMEDIATELY!!!! ITS URGENT, RIGHT NOW!!! THE IRKEN EMPIRE IS IN GREAT DANGER!!!! Yup. Mhm.
Some fresh air would be nice, a break from the constant Irken computer bluescreens. But despite all this, he'd be lying if he said he didn't enjoy a tech-support job well done.

Howdy!
I'm Blue, this is my first Tumblr post. It's the final renders for my model and character rig of Tallest Medea from A Very Tall Problem. Made in Blender 3.4, she's fully rigged with all the works, even custom bone shapes, shape keys, and drivers!
I am brand new to Tumblr, so far it seems to be going pretty well! Uhh, once I get some more posts going you'll be able to figure out a bit more what I do. A LOT OF BLENDER STUFF XD. But yea! Hope you all enjoy!
