Thank you everyone for your comments ! <3

Here 's the BLockout of the fish , I am making a progress videos on how I modeled the entire fish atm so I will upload them later once I finish the whole model.

Final Model of the Mech Fishes for #Pisciasa ! at last after 18 hours of solid modeling, I was able to finish the fish. It 's also my first time trying to record a progress video, you can check out the speed up version of the entire modeling progress video below

some other close up renders and WIP images

alright then , Texturing is next !

Baking time XD !
I will work on the texture of Pisciasa first then move on to the fish later since they are pretty minor. it's 1st Feb today so I got like 28 days to go starting to feel uneasy

This sum up yesterday wip of #Pisciasa Face Texture.

☀️ Wip Note :
I was trying to experiment with new way of doing texture for this project, instead of relying heavily on direct bruteforce paint-over method, I breakdown the textures into several layer , like the same way compositor handle their final renders like shadow , specular and base diffuse passes. Doing it this way might take a bit of time to get used to all the different layer like where to paint the color , which layer to paint the shadow and how to adjust the color of the shadow using several selective color filter layer, but once I got used to manage all these layers and groups, it is way more easier to control the end result interm of shading and color variation of a surface. I just need to paint the valur in Shadow layer then the CC ( Color Correction pass ) and base color layers just do the rest with shading and color .
In some of the old projects I got it pretty struggling while painting texture rely heavily on my 2D digital painting skills since I have to manage everything at once like shadow / color variation etc on one single paint-over layer. Gotta play around with this setup some more to see if I can simplify or push it even further next time. well ... end of ranting for now <3

Update of #Pisciasa final Hair Model & Face.
Wip Note : ☀️
Well, creating smaller threads of hair strands from main hair cluster shapes was my main workflow to dress up hair model so far, but now for #Pisciasa I am not really happy with the look of it since the antialias of mesh border are not that nice to look at. I could use Masked Material to break these loose strand into smaller thread but then AA is even more of a problem when it come to masked translucency shaders. In some other unlit shading project, I could fake or get away really easy with blurry opacity of translucency alpha shader but if only Real time renderer engine such as Marmorset or UE4 could support lighting/shading model of such shader as nicely as masked or opaque shader so that these loose strands would have the same shader look as its primary cluster. Or at last the depth sorting for Translucency shader should be working so I can apply translucency shader to the whole hair model. well, may be in 2 or next 3 years they can solve these problem with translucency shader or ... I have to think of a work-around lol .
