I made a set of tiny owls several years ago, and I've continued to make a few over the years. These two are to celebrate a 7th wedding anniversary, which is gold.
Quarter for scale.
Face on the left is a LumeDoll Blaze, and on the right is a Fairyland Chicline Rou in normal skin.
They are tiny.
What's new on the Excel Blender model front then? Well, I've updated... the front. Yes, I have quite literally made updates on the Excel front.
Working from the top down, if you look (very) closely you can see the glass part for the destination blind area is marked out; it is in fact inset from the 'metal' part by a very tiny amount because I don't think the glass and metal would be exactly flush in real life. Above are the two upper marker lights which have also been added in 3 dimensions! The whole destination blind box area is ever so slightly over-scaled and comes a few inches further down the windscreen than it does in real life, but like I've said before this is not going to be millimetre perfect because I'm not that skilled at Blender, but so long as it looks like an Excel and doesn't have any big problems then I'm pleased.
Moving down to the windscreen itself, I've added the rubber gasket that runs around its edge so now you can see its exact position, as up until now I had its shape cut with the knife tool but now I've added and extruded the rubber part it's visible in the 3d render.
For now the dash panel and headlights have remained as they were before, but the angle between the flat dash panel/lights part and the front bumper has been tweaked, so that it slopes more and the upper edge of the bumper has a smoother join to its front edge.
The final addition for now is the extra protruding lip stuck on the front of the bumper, which features on some Excels and not others. I previously said this was going to be separate object so that when the time comes I can make it a setvar in OMSI (assuming that's how it works), and that's exactly what I've done, so it's not part of the same model as the main body.
In fact neither is the registration plate area for that matter - I made it its own box so it stuck out lower down and then cut the bumper around its top edge with one of the modifiers (boolean difference I think..?)
The reg plate panel I can group in with the main body when I need to but the bumper lip should be kept as a different object. At least that's how I think it should work anyway!
So, what next? I'm actually running out of things to do on the body that require the mirroring on both sides, so I'm thinking of applying the modifier to allow me to edit each side separately and add things like the door aperture, emergency exit, fuel filler and engine grille. Of course I might run into other difficulties before I can do that since I'm sort of learning by doing, plus I think I might have made a mistake with the area I've left for the side windows, so it's all busy and fun in the world of Optare Excel modelling.
(Also, work on this is going wayyyy better than how work on the Omnidekka ever went)
How many threads do I need? ;p
Past work.
It was made for the event which was held at the end of Nov in Osaka.
While looking for something I found my tiny teddy bear from when I had my doll house as a kid. I got him from Virginia's Gift Shop at Knott's Berry Farm. I used to shop there a lot as a kid, cause they had all kinds of cute little animals like these. I was so excited to find him!!
The lawn at our apartment complex is covered with these little lavender flowers. I was able to capture a picture using a macro lens attachment my wife gave me.
This poison dart frog may be tiny, but its skin mucus can pack a punch! The mucus sample collected form this tiny endangered dart frog inhibits the chytrid fungus better than many other species, and may not be as susceptible to the chytrid fungus as we had feared.
Stitchwort flowers are one of my favourites. Tiny, bright white flowers. Bluebells are nice, but stitchworts are much more photogenic in my opinion (I reserve the right to change my mind about bluebells if and when I work out how to photograph them ;)
Tech note: This was taken using a Tamron 180mm macro on a Kenko 3x convertor which doesn't show on the exif info. Total focal length 540mm.
Tiny presented to me with a lump on the side of his chest that had been there for two months. He was also finicky with his food. Surgery confirmed a grass seed lump and a fractured tooth.

This is the view after a hike in Okpo on Goeje Island. This isn't true tilt-shift. I used some website to create the effect.
It's a teeny tiny stocking that can hold a teeny tiny gift. :-) Ornament #3 in the Christmas Club. www.shinyhappyworld.com/2014/09/tiny-little-stocking-orna...
