This came out awesomely man ^^ nice work :D

Thanks. I did put a lot of work into it, despite how much I had to compromise.

I'm always hoping for more animations of this guy. He's such an adorable predator!

I'm suddenly reminded of those animations of him you did oh-so-many years ago, which I think are what caused me to discover you.

Anyway! About the animation itself... I really liked it! It's very smooth, the bulges are very nice looking (Especially the throat bulge |3) and overall, it has a very nice feel to it. :> Job well done. I want to see more, definitely.

heh, yeah... I remember those too. I made those in... jeez 2004? Wow, almost 10 years ago.

Koku still has that sticky tongue, he just didn't use it in this animation.

I MIGHT make another one with him. I mean, I did all the work of modeling, shading, and rigging him, it'd be a shame to toss that all aside. His rig is fine for eating people, though. But not for rotoing a bit and turning into prey. I need a special prey rig to follow the pred's esophagus (that's what I did before.)

I'd certainly dig seeing more of the fellah, he's a predator I've remembered from... yeah, almost ten years ago. I'm suddenly feeling old! :B

I wonder how difficult it would be to allow him to rope up a prey with his tongue before swallowing them?

He's rigged for it, actually. It'd be really easy. I did all this research on how to animate tentacles and things of that like.

...Oh! Good! I'm not trying to get you to do an animation of that or anything. *Subliminal message, subliminal message*

Either way, this one is delightful :) You animated the bulges _very_ well!

I'll try to, but I'm not sure I could work with they prey's character rig. It would be fun, though.

o..o holy shit dude! That's insanely amazing~ I don't care that you don't like it, I freakin' doooooo

*bluuuush*

Awesome work! I love how well the expressions and the throat bulge came out, the individual bumps from the little guy are really hot!

Oh yeah, I love giving expressions to 3D characters. It's so funny seeing their faces move into all those different ways. Even though both characters seem pretty happy, they actually have scared, angry, sad, disgusted, and a few others programmed in as well.

Where you list what you think is wrong, I see an awesome bit of animation that totally started my day off great! You did a fine job on the movements. The slow swallowing is erotic as hell! :3

D'aw, I dunno what to say. It makes me glow to hear that you like it.

Very nice animation buddy, I might commission you yet :P

Naw... I'm not good enough to do commissions.

I already have models for you to use so half the work is already done.

I'm dubious of that. I spent most of my time complaining about the rig I was using while working on this.

Well lets talk on Skype maybe we could work something out :P

Wiggle wiggle! Ehehehe

yup, and a slurp.

Mhm, very fun ^^

very well done and these bulges are just great :D

D'aw thanks. I didn't want to finish this until they were just right.

OMG i love it

d'aw. *blushes*

*rubbs* youre verry good ^_^ i hope we see more of this animations from you

More animations would be good. Hopefully I'll get better at character modeling and rigging.

i'm sure ya will^^

very decent stuff,.. i havent seen a 3d animation that had such well done and consistant bulges,.. keep up the good work

Yeah, for some reason they never seem to include that.

colission is very hard to do thats why,.. and emulating that, keeping the position of every single body part as the prey independently moves is a daunting task for a 3d animator

I just used a combination of keyshapes, pushcasts, and cloth sims

Is looking very nice~ I am glad you kept working on it~

It got really discouraging at times, I'll admit.

wow.. cool animation...

love this

Yay, I'm glad!

Very nice work dude. Keep it up =3

Thanks, I'll try

Turned out pretty good, glad you kept at it :)

Thanks. I guess I had to finish some time.

Voracious t-rex's are awesome. Nice job with the animation and built character, you did a very good job.

Yeah they are, though honestly I don't know what species Koku is...

Awwr, thats a really excellently made and cute animation!
Excellent work!

Thanks!

You're very welcome buddy ^_^

amazing <3 Just amazing

*blush* d'aw, that's sweet of you.

I'm a little jealous of the big guy >_>

me too!

Very nice. In particular, the bulges are well executed.

Thanks. I wanted to get them just right.

Why thank you.

Its really well done Kee!

Well, I dunno about that. I did try my best though.

I call your attention to the bulges in that throat

Yeah, I've had that pointed out to me.

That's really good cx

Thanks

Wow, what a fantastic job!!! It's nice to actually see bulges in 3D animations, not to mention detailed bulges~ I love it! Though I have to say an angle looking into the mouth would be kind of nice (but I am a sucker for mawshots)~ 83

D'aw, I dunno about that. I still see a million things wrong with it.

I could try to do a mawshot, I don't think it would be that impressive though. The whole character design is very simple, his maw is about as detail-sparse as the rest of him.

It's good enough for me~ I like simplicity, I think giving to much detail (or trying to) can ruin the model at times. I won't say names but there's a couple 3D artists who do that. =\ Out of curious though, does this model have a throat and uvula? =3

He's got a throat, no uvula though.

To be honest I envy their ability to add detail, but you are right. Sometimes less is more.

o..o i admit im quite impressed Flixard, the smoothness is very nice, and those bulges just add to the anim all the more >3< a job well done :3

Aw thanks. I'm not too proud of all the slipping and clipping, and I think I lost the pacing near the end. I did like those bulges though; I put a lot of work into them.

Quite impressive! ... It was worth staring at in amazement for a few viewings, so yeah, awesome animation! Nicely done!

d'aw *blush*

Another stunning 3D animation from you Flixard, the low quality the video in dosent take away from the amount of work and detail you put into this, yet again those smooth realisitc looking bulges that show going down the throat and in the belly are amazing and ive never seen a vore animation with such smooth 3D bulges like that and smooth framing as well so far. I especially loved that large sliding bulge in the belly near the end, I was kind hoping their would be more struggling bulges in the belly but I can see how much work you put into the full swallowing animation and you did show off the belly bulging in the end so its all great, im guessing you like the swallowing process and throat bulges more? =P

I'm impressed again and really hope you keep making these animations, I didnt think your 2D animations from 2004 could get any better and you said you wouldent be making anymore cas they where so hard and took so long to make but then you come out with these mind blowing 3D animations, you really are random.. in a good way. =P

Always a fan~

Oh my gosh, you've said such nice things about me. I don't even know what to say. Though, I have to say, the technique I was using to make my 2D animations was so laborious that I can say without a doubt, the 3D animation was easier to make.

Must make more!! This was amazing!!

I'll do my best

solid man. Get a few texture maps and lighting and thats gona look professional grade.

I was going to use some really fancy Cycles lights instead of the standard Blender ones, but I just don't have the computer for it. Rendering one frame took almost a quarter the amount of time as rendering the whole animation. At a certain point, I just wanted to have this thing DONE y'know?

I remember this adorable lizard from way back when. <3 This is a fantastic animation, and so cute what with the willing snack and all slipping down that long slide. Great job!

Yeah, he's an oldie. He seemed to have made the transition to 3D pretty ok. I know a lot of the times 2D characters don't go to 3D with very much grace.

Thanks for the complements, they're really welcoming. It feels nice to be animating again.

Wow! Well done!
Wish i could do something like that. *keeps watching*

D'aw, I'm sure you could. It's just a matter of learning what all the buttons do.

Wow....o.o I really liked that! Thank you!

D'aw, i'm glad you liked that. I hope next time I actually make a good animation, lol. But seriously, thanks.

MORE OF THESE :DDD

Heh, I'll do my best.

I am ashamed I haven't seen this till now, this animation is just really excellent!! Love the bulging and the animation is really smooth! ^^ Lovely work!! :D

D'aw thanks, that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I had to deal with a bunch of annoying stuff while building this animation. Hopefully I've learned enough to be able to get around that for next time.

You're welcome ^^ I'm glad I made ya feel that way! I can imagine, blender doesn't look easy to work with, and I wish you best of luck on your next project! ^^

Pretty awesome and well done. I like the detail bulges :)

Why thank you. That means a lot coming from you.

In my case, although I could say I'm quite experienced with Blender and know most of its features, I still wouldn't know how to make bulges like that. A round swell that comes and goes is easy, but correct imprints of another shape are more problematic. Cloth physics would work, but that wouldn't do on a character mesh. Need to ask the Blender team how to achieve that... will certainly need it for things I'll be doing :)

I used pushcast modifiers. I believe that the person who originally implemented them was https://www.furaffinity.net/user/imaginaryz

Ahh... just read that you also used Blender. Nice! I assume this modifier is an addon I must install, and not defaulted with latest Blender? I'd be surprised if ImaginaryZ was a Blender core dev although I love his stuff too ^^

Nope, pushcast modifiers have been part of blender for a couple of years now.

Nice. Sucks I didn't find them till now, since I know most of Blender's mechanics at this day. It's also really cool if one of the artists here contributed to the Blender code... that I didn't expect Thanks for all the info.

Yeah, I'm very familiar with Blender myself, too, but I still don't think I've tried everything.

This is so great. All the little expressions and careful detail put into each part really differentiate this from virtually all 3d vore out there. Definitely one of my favorite pieces because of all those lifelike expressions.

Mmmh so hot i love it!!! ;D

D'aw thanks!

Can i ask how the hell you textured your models with multible colors?

Set up a UV map and just colored it (lazily) in photoshop

o.o ill have to figure that out >.>

It's not too tough, but it is annoying. Basically you have to take your 3D model and unfold it so that the polygons fit more or less on a 2D plane. U and V reffer to an extra set of coordinates that each polygon must thus have (U, V, and X, Y, and Z) Then you lay a picture on top of the 2D plane (photoshop has tools for this) which will then detail what color each pixle of each polygon in 3D space should be. UV mapping is largely automated, but it's still more art than science. You want to avoid "seams" between polygons (where you have to split polygons apart to make space) without stretching the polygons too much.

Sounds like a monsterous task!

Animation is a form of masochism

I cant seem to find UV textures, :/ And i cant do anything!

Are you still having trouble with that? I'm sure there are plenty of blender tutorials on Youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7h.....TK&index=8 was the one I liked the best.

Thanks for your help!

No problem. You can add me to skype if you have more questions

Eeehh i never do skype <3 But i have figured out how to Texture my lovley aru

its so cute

and also what program did you use to make this

Blender

thank you
