Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!

Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! and if you don't celebrate Christmas, Happy Holidays!

Teleportation 101 Update

Got Sweetie belle's animations about 99% finished, there just needs to be some minor adjustments to timings and such but apart from that that's the first scene finished.

I'll be working on the next scene quite a bit this week and will hopefully have something to show this weekend.

Sunday Updates

Heya! hope everyone's been having a good week!

Hoping to get the first finished scene done of the teleportation 101 video out this Wednesday.

Besides that there's not been much in the way of progress as I've gotten myself way too enthralled in studying Blender and 3D modelling in general (ag...

Sunday Update

The full version of the Halloween video (Full of Fright) video is going to be delayed till tomorrow. The sound and video is now 100% complete, the delay being solely due to rendering the final videos out of Premiere. 

The Full version of the animation will be out tomorrow along with downloads...

Sunday Update

Coming this week!

The full version of the Halloween Special: Full of Fright. As well as the 1080p and 4K Downloads for Safe and Full versions of the video.

Sunday Update

Evening everyone.

Just more of a plan on what projects are going to be worked on next and what I've got planned.

So far there's about 2 animations in the works. I'd like to aim to get Teleportation 101 out by the end of this month. Though i'll be working to bulk out the story give it some mo...

Full of Fright - 2017 Halloween Special

Happy Halloween Everyone!

On the spookiest of nights, AJ can sense somethings not quite right down at sweet apple acres. Who knows what might be lurking amongst the shadows in the dark.

Coming to a sunday near you!

You may wonder if there is going to be a Halloween video posted. And sure, it will creep up on you when you least expect it...  Or, this Sunday (05/11/17), either or. 

The reason being that the video is not fit for audience as of yet, there is some fine tuning required in the animation d...

Sunday Update!

Bit of a more exciting update, not so much for this week but over the next week I'll have 5 whole days to work on animations! So by next week I'd hope to have 2 of the animations either finished or to a near finished position.

Needless to say I don't plan on wasting this chance to work on the anim...

Sunday Update

Made some more progress on the Teleportation project. Mostly trying to flesh out Sweetie belle's animations for the most part. Also been working on the Halloween project, but not as much this week as I wanted to focus some time on the teleportation video.

Sunday Update

Honestly can't say much for this week, both the Halloween and Sweetie belle projects have been worked on quite  a bit this week but haven't had time to get anything rendered. As mentioned before, my times been spent mostly on the Halloween special as such it's been slow work on the sweetie bell...

Teleportation 101 Video Update

Managed to get a bit more work done on this project. Didn't get as much time to work on this video as I had hoped but I did get some progress done. Going to work on getting Sweetie belles animations caught up to match twilight's. But the first scene is nearly done (and much longer than I had planned...

Sunday Update

Another Sunday another update!

Finally! October, my Favourite month of the year! Why? Because Halloween of-course!

Just wanted to say that I've been planning out a special Halloween themed video which I will have out on Halloween Night. (Because this is going to be a special video and becaus...

Sunday Update

Managed to get near enough the first scene all set up with most of twilight's animation finished. sweetie belle still needs some work for this scene but its making really good progress.

Progress on first scene

AAHHHHH! 

Not finished like I wanted. Had the ruddy cold all week (still feeling bad but getting better) and works been slow because of it. 

But progress is progress.

Little Sunday Update

Hope everyone's been having a good Sunday!

Got the first 2 and a half seconds of the animation finished. there is more animated but its all block animation beyond these two seconds. I'll be releasing the full first scene completely finished on Wednesday.

Alittle more on the animation, I've d...

Side Project - Teleportation 101

This isn't want I wanted to get out today but it's something I'll be working on for the next few days.

Here's the plot:

Twilight sparkle is trying to help sweetie belle master the act of teleportation. The video will start with them teleporting a few objects before they move onto self telepo...

Sunday Update

Been working on the model as much as I could this week and ended up scrapping and starting over about 10 times trying to get the shape right. Progress is being made but I'll be the first to say this is a lot harder than I had hopped. The main issue being how to create the right structures for the he...

Sunday Update

Finished my sketches for the Luna model and though I've started making the meshes, they're no where near anything that would be worth showing at this stage. going to work on them this week and will give another update next Sunday with the first view of the 3D meshes.

So far everything's going good...

Update on Luna Model

I've decided to start with making a base Luna model and then working from that as it would be easier to made a nightmare moon model after the base Luna. Doing some orthographic sketches (which took forever since I've never done one before, nor have I drawn Luna before).

But all in all its going we...

Sunday Update

I've decided to try and re-make the luna model from scratch. I've always focused on trying to go with whatever option is going to give the best results, even if it takes longer to do so. I want this project to set a new bar for my work and having my own models made would really help step things up a...

VPP Nightmare Moon Project (update)

So as I said I would upload a test video on the nightmare moon VPP model to demo the flexes. I've stopped at the throat bulges for now for a few reasons. 

After trying for a good few hours I've found that the base models for the nightmare moon meshes are quite old by today's standards of pony...

Sunday Updates

Decided to focus this week on getting the Nightmare moon model fitted with the VPP flexes it's been going rather well but haven't had the time this week to properly test it out. This Wednesday I'll release some test videos.

I'll likely release a demo version if anyone wants to try and play with th...

Back From Holiday!

Happy Sunday!

Got back from holiday on Saturday and just finished getting settled back into my home! Nothing to post really but I've started picking up the projects where I left off and will have more stuff to show soon!

To anyone interested, I had quite a nice holiday out by the seaside for...

Sunday Update + Holiday

Heya everyone!

Didn't get chance to work on the main projects this week due to work. But I couldn't bare going another week without something to show, so here's a little side project I managed to put together. Just something short and silly and completely random. There was going to be another 2 sc...

Sunday Updates!

Didn't manage to rework the flash demo in time this week so that'll be out either Wednesday or next Sunday. Had some trouble getting flash to want to work with the big file sizes I was working with and it just kept crashing for the most part so had to fiddle around with it to get things to work more...

Sunday Update : Planning!

Nothing really to show for this Sunday update sadly.

Started working on the new nightmare moon and Fluttershy project so far nothing in SFM more just planning out what scenes will be included and figuring out how the story will work to incorporate interactive features. 

Got most of the ...

Interactive Project Update

Just a short update really this week,

Wasn't quite able to get the new demo out on time like I wanted to. It will be out this Tuesday though! So far all the scenes for the demo have been finished and imported into Flash. The only thing that needs doing for the demo before the next release is the s...

Video Progress Sunday Up Date!

Very late post with it being 11pm. The interactive animation has made slow progress this week. Though another scene plus idle scene has been finished I just didn't have time to render it out and put it into flash. So far there's just 3 more scenes to finish so I'll be putting out another test demo t...

Interactive Project Update!

So here's my first attempt at an interactive Flash project using SFM for rendering frames, and then Flash to make them interactive. The loops are still rough and I need to find a way to make the scenes finish fully before they move on after you click the button. But as a first attempt here it is!
