Interesting concept. Yes the liquids look like ink now if they are completely opaque. Easy solution, upgrade to Toolbag 3 ;) In TB2 try a transparent material with a bit of diffuse and a secondary reflection. Maybe add a very subtle emission, or even add some kind of ice/crystal inside the fluid.
@ SmilingMountain, SaboR1996 - Thank you! :) It has been awhile since an update! Here's just a little model I've been messing with. [SKETCHFAB]uw5FLs2EOAfUHTiFpjlN0828Ojb[/SKETCHFAB] Floating Crystals - 92 Tris - 512x512 Diffuse Currently doing some figure drawings too, which I'll probably post soon.
wait . . . are you allowed to post this here?| I like how the armor has turned out, but there's something off about the face, like it feels unfinished. I also am thinking that maybe the torso ice crystals could use a leetle more higher key values of the blue ice.
I gotta say the 3DS is looking really tempting now... just heard about Final fantasy explorers today. Was a massive Crystal Chronicles fan when it was out on the Gamecube back in the day - this and the new Monster Hunter....damn XO [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQbZLamQdy8[/ame]
That's exactly what I thought too. Imperfect crystals have already made an appearance in The Force Unleashed (which served as an episode 3.5) with exactly that effect. Every force user had a slightly unique hilt on their saber anyway. With less guidance (and tradition) available, more variation makes sense.

I had fun with skin modifier for the ice crystal :3 I painted everything in PS and 3D-Coat, if anyone wonder :3 Details on my blog here: http://wp.me/p1cU9d-68 Oh, I also happen to animate him (although very short ^^) here:…
New Jet Force Gemini New F-Zero GX New Metroid Prime New Rogue Squadron New Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (like the gamecube version with some of the class improvements of the DS games.) New Zone of the Enders New Advance Wars Think that's a good list for now...
Superman fighting anyone has always been silly. He's a god, for all intents and purposes. You lose, next! Any weaknesses are just conveniences written in so there can be more than 2 minutes of story. "What? Oh. Uhh ... Luthor has kryptonite crystals on his knuckles! Yeah, that's it!"
actually. diablo's one was pretty weak IMO. atleast compared to starcraft and warcraft. This was ace. Really really impressive, though some of the character designs were a bit cheesy. but its warhammer, you gotta cut them some slack. That bird kicked ass though, straight outta dark crystal.
Updating my "Health Pickup" atm. Trying to get a better fantasy feel with less generic elements. Currently re topologising (sp?) a quick crystal I made in zbrush that I will not only use as a mesh, but will render out and make a sub uv texture of for other uses later on (vfx kitbashing!)
