Why I've been kinda silent on here
Posted 6 years agoTL;DR : I'm a lazy boob and it's becoming a chore to post here.
I understand that some people use this as a primary place to post but I used to primarily use Tumblr and now Twitter. Posting here is just becoming more and more of a chore! Like you have to go out of your way to convert a video file into a super outdated format (for video files at least) and even then the size limit is kinda redonkulous. Ditto when it comes to image files too! If my peeps (you guys) don't mind I wouldn't care uploading a super crappy version of an upload and then link y'all somewhere else, like my twitter, then I'll shut up and dewit

Fuck me, right?
Posted 8 years ago>>DISCLAIMER BEFORE READING THERE IS A BACK UP SO ALL IS NOT LOST<<
Welp. It fucking happened - the vinyl project got corrupted.
The file that held the vinyl project (everything I had worked on thus far) was mysteriously corrupted…Blender would NOT let me open it. As I stated above, I have gotten smarter since the crash of 2016 on SFM and do periodic back ups. LUCKILY the last back up I did was a week ago. So all is not lost.
HOWEVER, the reason why this fucking sucks is because within this week I’ve had real motivational moments where I worked like a mad man and finished a bunch of shit - so while this isn’t the end I still got shot in the gut.

My animations are improving!...but...
Posted 8 years ago>>Just copied and pasted this from my Tumblr blog 'cuz I'm too lazy to re-type it all<<
Phew...Here goes nothing:
So over the course of this year I can happily say my animations in general have gotten leagues better than what I started off doing but for the passed half a year my focus has been improving my animation style on Dynamic “Actions” (Walking, opening doors, reactions, sit ups, etc.) but, like a dumbass, I haven’t practiced actual “fucking”...which is kinda essential to this blog. (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
Basically here’s what happened: I finally got settled in after this whole issue I was having on my end, I continued working on the big Vinyl project and I got the entire intro done!..Now came the actual sexing part of the project. And my god, I couldn’t even look at it. It was akin to mashing barbie dolls together and saying it was sex.
CUT THE BULLSHIT PIXEL, WHAT’S THIS MEAN?
Well, in short: I’m gonna be practicing..duh. I’ll be putting out more animations of real short loops while I get the fluidity down. I mean...it’s a win win for both sides here. You guys get more futa action and I get the practice in.
TO MY MLP FOLLOWERS WHO HAVE BEEN DYING FOR THIS VINYL PROJECT:
Don’t worry, I promise you guys will still get your Vinyl action with Octavia and the groupie. I’ll use them as the main practice subjects so it’s all good. Maybe some practice cum-shot animations here and there too.
I’m fully aware that there will be some pissed off followers, hell - might even lose some. But I’m prepared for that because I never release something that I don’t think you guys will like...and barbie dolls colliding against each other won’t cut it.

Just some fun things about being a Modeler/Animator
Posted 8 years agoWanna know something that completely fucking sucks about being both a 3d-Modeler AND Animator?
No?
WELL IMMA TELL YOU ANYWAY…
As an animator you’re literally always in need for the best models out there. Models that can handle your shit and do it well. But here on the other side you’re a modeler, so eventually, you become proficient enough to improve your models. Then upon doing so you come to the realization that your previous model is fucking atrocious and you’re a god damned moron for even have even thought it was acceptable…so what happens next? YOU REDO THE MODEL ;_;
No?

Scraps
Posted 8 years agoSo, I wanna start doing this thing where I just post pieces of work that I never got around to finishing and label them as “scrap.” This way, I can keep my posts somewhat more frequent in the event that I am working on a bigger project!
What causes a piece of work to be considered scrap? Well - for me, at least, it’s something that I either lost the drive to finish, didn’t like the way it was turning out or >In this case< hated the fuck out of the wretched models I made and wanted to redo them…Does this mean that a certain piece of work that gets scrapped won’t get worked on again? Yes–I mean no. So don’t say bye bye to Nami and Robin!
Even though I’m sure this goes without saying but scrapped pieces of work will NEVER be anywhere near completion. From the animation itself to the lighting and rendering. So basically-if you looked at my work with somewhat of a low expectation? Lower it even further for these scraps lol
