Papel Pod-Cast Comet

Papel Pod-Cast Comet Development

-----------------------------------------------------

The Papel Pod-Cast comet has been the quickest item i'v developed. It was completed from concept to final model/textures within 15 mins. Basically, Leia needed a ball for the Papel Pod-Cast colab and wanted to experiment with custom comets. This is the worlds first custom comet model-wise, and there are a few kinks with lighting and smoothing that we have to still work out but it turned out pretty nice.

The comet itself is fairly simple in design. I chose to base it off a Papel since its the most iconic and easily recognizable thing in Pangya. It's something basically everyone loves and instantly recognizes so it was a great starting point. It's also something i'm experienced in designing around (See the Wedge for the Special Caddie Clubset)

Pangya Japan's 12th Anniversary Papel Comet

Now yes, as you can see above this isn't the first time a Papel ball has existed in Pangya. The only instance of this is the comet above, which comes from Pangya Japan and is exclusive to them for their 12th anniversary. As if it actually took 12 years to get a Papel themed ball 

(also come on Pangya PC, wheres our Dolfini Comet? *Hint Hint*)

The comet from Japan is nice, but its a bit too simplistic. The eyes are a bit dead looking and the logo is way to intrusive into the design. Yes the Papel Pod-Cast ball is themed around Papel Pod-Cast but i also wanted it to be a comet that everyone can enjoy, be it fans of the Pod-Cast or not. So i chose to put the logo on the very back as to not be so intrusive.

The design was pretty easy to pull of, things like the ears and handle make it more unique looking and detailed compared to other comets while still fitting in with the style. I'm really happy with the comet, and i'm glad i got to make it. Hopefully in the future we can iron out the lighting issues we encountered, other than that it's looking good going forward in terms of custom content. 

Lots of possibilities and exciting opportunities await!
