Description My first Latios-only wallpaper (The Magikarp doesn't count). Done entirely in blender, in association with chapter 23 of the fanfiction [[link] , where Latios snacks on a Magikarp while looking for a present for Latias. Check it out if you like that kind of thing (fanfics).

I made this one to 'celebrate' project Latios passing the first physical engine start test. Project Latios is - for the record - my little hobby: to make a fully function RC Latios (that flies and everything). To do this the engines need to be able to lift 700 grams each (and there's 8 of them). I've just started it up at 1/4th power on the testing platform and it's looking good. I just need a bigger battery and it should be good.


Anyway, if you like the picture, feel free to download for your desktop/facebook timeline/debit card, and don't forget to leave a comment in the box down there if you think its good or could do with some improvements.

It is 3D. I used Blender for the model editing and rigging and ripped the models/textures from the pokepark wii game using some software I made myself.

I then converted them to obj and imported it into blender, then made and rigged up a skeleton for Latios and used it as a template. I didn't bother rigging the Magicarp, but it's whiskers are actually physics/gravity enabled, which a stiffness added to mimic the effects of gravity underwater. The background is a simple in-blender cloud texture with ramped colors and then I just toned the entire scene's ambient light to give it that underwater feel. I thought about adding toon shaders and edge color to make it look less 3D, but it ruined the underwater effect.

Well... Ice is dragon's weakness, so they're kind of arch-Nemesis'. let me just see if I have a Glaceon model on file...

What do you know... I do. *Evil Face*
It would be an awful shame if he decided to ...

I'd be careful if was you.

Well. I think it's your fault for giving me ideas. And letting your Glacion get out of your sight in the first place.

But it missed...
Seriously?
Latios flies at 300mph. I doubt anything has much time to do anything in-between spotting him and being eaten. Just sayin'
