Wip animatic. Ran out of ideas lol. Gonna binge some ma flicks for inspi.
HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!
We're working hard to give you the best site possible, but we have bills to pay and community support is vital to keep things going and growing. Thank you for considering!
Animatic update. Been getting burned out lately but anyway managed to slog through the boring parts. Imma get this bitch back on the road.
Just started watching Death Note! Really liking this L dude, he seems pretty cool. Hope nothing bad happens to him π
Digital inking practice.
Og lineart from the Copic site.
Felt like drawing something. ZZZ NPC designs got some real bad baddies like damnπ₯π₯π₯
Weddy WIP π₯°
Weddy WIP update, tried sketching using values instead of just lines like the norm, def a lot of potential here! Didn't really get this tech before but now I can see why some peeps I see do their sketching process like this π₯
Eyooo done with Weddy! Was trying with my new style inspired by kana sauce and didn't really get close to the look I'm tryna go for but looks passable ig. Oh well back to the mines.
Fuhua sketch
Imma get my bum ass to lock in and get a productive run goin
Day 2
My lazy ass decided halfway through 'hey lets use pastels! It kinda has the same texture and covers a large area!' except its too grainy raw and too smooth when blended...πππ Turned out decent I think and not too jankyΒ ΜΆdΜΆeΜΆfΜΆ ΜΆnΜΆoΜΆtΜΆ ΜΆcΜΆoΜΆpΜΆiΜΆnΜΆgΜΆ
This design is so dumb I love it lool
Gonna stick with pastels for a few days since its just been collecting dust. Texture looks good and blends pretty nicely, precision's ass tho since I got the big block ones. Might play around more with using this with brushes and water maybe that can solve my precision problems, could still sketch with this but if I can do high precision that'd be very poggywoggers!
Day 4
Still working my pastel tech, some croquis curls instead
Day 6!

Guess this the downside with using cheap stuff it doesn't layer like various guides show, welp I can work with it ig. I did play around with water blending and it does seem to layer a bit better. Will do 2 studies next since I missed 1 day.
Day 12!
Last bg one had ass linework so round 2 bitch! Used my old 3d render as sketch so I could give more time to lining. Also recalled some anime bg rendering techs so tried what I remember, turned out aight.
Haven't posted in a while cuz of the stupid ass storm and bum ass power company π
Anyways power's back to being stable, seems like the daily thing worked to get back my rhythm so Im back to 3D. Dl'd UE5 last week and YOOOO you can play your levels holy shit π€©π€©π€© really looking forward to actually finishing this its gonna be so poggers!! Not really feeling the tools tho so gon continue the rest of the blocking in Wlender
Update WIP! I totes didn't get carried away 'researching' Yakuza 0 and Death Stranding while collecting refs ππanywho should have enough ammo to get me busy to do props and shit complete with textures and what have you for the next week. Still not quite decided on the design so Imma play around with 2d concept art first.
Got carried away noodling the shit out of the environment and playing with photobashing. Ended up liking up how the more painterly brushes look so I think imma finish this as its own piece and get some environment painting in as well. Haven't decided how the buildings gonna look so I'll go back to Blender for now, been hoarding a bunch of interesting channels lately so let's see what I get.
Practicing some sculpting, ehh close enough. Came across the free Blender sculpting course by CG Boost, its a decent enough start I can do some passable sculpts now. Gonna refine this a bit more with some cracks or something then look into texture painting.
This didn't turn quite what I was expecting but its not too bad. Been putting off learning texturing for a while but glad I did this really brings meshes to life I got a whole lot more options now. My halo project looks like its gonna take a while so I might do some smaller scale concepts first while I get chummy with the env workflow.
Rika WIP update! Been sick the last couple of weeks but finally back to finishing this. So I got accepted for training at an animation studio so I'll be postponing the 3d stuff for now and shift focus back to drawing. Im also gonna be opening comms soon since I'll be moving and could use the extra funds.
Got some free time during training so drew this on my phone. Been meaning to try out the Huion on my phone for a while now, seems to work pretty well. Only issue is my strokes getting slightly squished ig since my tablet's too long lol. Might buy a smaller one they seem to have a better shape for phone use.
