With a spark of creativity, and the last bit of free time I have before Christmas craziness kicks off, I actually managed to do a thing! Have a great holiday season, guys.
2018-12-22 19:46:48 +0000 UTC View PostIt's not much of an update this week as I've been kinda busy, and things are only about to get busier. I'm frustrated that I haven't gotten more done lately, but there's not much more I can do with Christmas coming up.
There's a lot of excit...
2018-12-21 21:20:36 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, I appreciate all the feedback and support from last week, and I've put a lot of thought into it. I've still been busy and likely will be for the rest of the year due to the holidays.
I guess I'll start by talking about the movie. What I h...

Welcome to the roller coaster that is my SFM work, this new low brought to you by the Tumblrpocolypse. I think most points in this post have been mentioned before, but this is a more comprehensive post, and I think that I can articulate a few things ...

Start of scene 3, take two. I've still been pretty busy after the holiday, but I've been thinking a lot about the movie, and I think I've got a better start on scene 3.
For starters, I've gone through the audio another time. Re-ordered some stuff, ...

It's American Thanksgiving this week, and I'm going to be pretty busy, so here is an early update.
First up, I've been tinkering around with Cora. I wanted to go for something I haven't really done before, and I think I came up with a pretty nice p...

Excitement to begin a new scene quickly became frustration as I struggled to start work. It's fairly daunting coming into a 80-90 second scene. I usually start with lip-sync, and that would be a fairly simple place to start. But I'm not really all th...

This was a really fun one to work on. Credit to Zizzero for the scene build. It's an incredibly well set up pose, and that took a lot of pressure off animating it. Also credit to 2018-11-14 22:49:37 +0000 UTC View Post
The third part of scene 2 is preview ready. It adds another 43 seconds to the movie!

Working on that N7 day loop really helped the Mass Effect mood. I've finished animation on the third part of scene 2, which more or less completes animation for all of scene 2. I'll still need to fix some things like jiggles and lighting, but it is p...

I wanted to do something a bit different for this week's update. I'm briefly gonna over some other animations I've been working on and things I've been thinking about doing.

I don't have an animation with her ready for Halloween, so I slapped this poster together.

Another WoW Commission. Jaina's new look for BFA sure looks nice.

Continued working on the extra scene since people really liked it. I worked on her head motion and lips for the majority of the scene. In total, the scene is about 40 seconds long and I've got 30 seconds of it nearly complete. It's almost good enough...

A poster commission with Leliana and Morrigan.

First time doing some WoW smut. I have no idea how interested the rest of you guys are in WoW, but this poster commission came out quite nice.

I'm still not entirely satisfied with her shaders, especially her hair, but I think I've managed to make the lighting look a lot nicer.
What do you guys think, does it look better than anything I could make in SFM?

Based on the poll winner. Opening this to all for more feedback. While I think it looks good, it doesn't really look great. Considering it takes about 10x the rendering, it's not really worth finishing until I can get something that definitively look...

Lots of refinement since the prototype build. There's still some things I already want to fix, but it is animation complete for the most part. Of course, it is still lacking editing and most sound, but I think this scene has really come together well...
2018-09-22 14:43:59 +0000 UTC View PostThe FemShep model is more or less ready to animate in Blender. I haven't done a poll in a while, so I thought to make one about the location to help determine the flavor of the animation.
I want to make a new scene build based on the winner. It'll ...

I've got her IK rig more or less done. What an adventure that was. The process itself was fairly simple though tedious. Ultimately, the rig is set up to use the weighting from her original bones.
The main problem was with her spine, especiall...

Very slowly adopting Blender. It took quite a lot of time re-rendering. I'm definitely going to have to think about upgrading if I'm going to use Blender more often.
Here's the latest group of poster commissions. I had some strong creative inspiration while making these, and they might just be some of the best posters I've made in a while.

I've been working on this basically all day, so I'm gonna keep the text short. Part B is about 42 seconds long.
First finished render with Blender! I'd really like to know what you guys think of it. I've spent so long working on this that I've lost all concept of quality.
While the lighting and shaders are fairly basic, I spent a lot of time messing ar...

It's a big update! Probably my most productive week in a while. With the change to blender, it's helped focus all my SFM time to the movie. First part of scene 1 is effectively done, and it comes out to around 44 seconds. This doesn't include final q...

My first cycles render in blender... I didnt say it would be a sexy render. I went through a popular tutorial series to create this. It was pretty great and informative. I learned quite a bit about modelling, materials, particles, lighting, ...
2018-04-26 19:12:54 +0000 UTC View PostThe restructure update. Thanks to your feedback last week, I've done some editing to the movie. For the most part, most scenes were only reduced by about 5-10 seconds. Longer scenes such as 2, 5, 8, 9, and 13 had reductions of about 20 seconds or mor...
