A little sneak peak at the upcoming August mini animation! It's still a bit early to present, but I kind of wanted to post what I'm currently on that isn't related to the recent animation!
In this small loop Zoe is going to grab the viewer's collar before giving them a good look at her maw!...
2019-07-31 10:48:01 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the free version of the animation! Phew... this one has probably been the most elaborate thing I've ever animated here. I've already had some small snippets of Zoe talking in one of the more recent animations, but this new POV project was done after a lengthy script and has Zoe talking for...

Here's the extended version of the new animation! This one features an additional 3rd person gulp, as well as a post-credits scene. Both were originally planned for this animation, but scrapped for the initial release to get it done in a somewhat timely manner. I sadly didn't find the time to ani...

Here's a look at one of the first bonus scenes that the new animation is going to be extended by. It's a fairly brief scene that however has a lot of detailed animation going on, which is why this one was cut from the initial release. The scene takes place roughly between the last "In mouth" scen...

Apologies for the horrible temporary cover, will make sure to replace it with something fancier later on! The punny title will stay whatsoever~

As always before the animation release I'm posting a render strip that shows the animation's final quality. Post production is pretty much done and I've already started doing the sound work this weekend, which should be finalized in the upcoming days. I already hoped to have the animation out las...

Post production of the new animation is slowly nearing completion! But with that still being a couple days away I wanted to show some further progress shots that show the nearly final quality of the film! It's probably hard to see on these small gifs, but with this animation there's going to be a...
2019-05-26 14:49:59 +0000 UTC View PostHere's some more progress on the rendering! Note that these are just quickly put together to show the progress of the rendering process, once all layers are rendered out, I can start compositing and tweak until everything looks right! There's a few small things that I'm still going to improve, su...

Rendering the new animation is progressing quite decently with roughly half of the layers done! I already wanted to post a more elaborate preview, but since Miss Zoe's extravagant fur is still taking a bit more time to render, I'm instead posting one of the later scenes, which my secondary workst...
2019-05-07 22:10:55 +0000 UTC View PostYep, it's that time again! I've officially started rendering yesterday night and things are coming out quite decently! There's a couple more layers (and frames oh gosh) to render than in the recent animations since I had to break this film up a little more due to its complexity. They're all prett...

Wow, Zoe has no manners talking with her mouth full! :c
Here's the final playblast showing one of the last scenes, I still need to put the environment back in place, so apologies for the plain white background for now! I'm preparing to start polishing the entire animation, which I'm hoping ...
2019-04-17 09:04:55 +0000 UTC View PostGood news! I just received two messages about my page regarding the review and things turned out positive. I got a notice that my page is fully functional again and my ticket got a reply from a Trust & Safety member that everything is good to go! I'm still a bit uncertain what they've been in...
2019-04-01 20:33:38 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! I just realized that my account is under review by Patreon's trust & safety team. Right now I don't know why it's under review, which is why I sent them a mail to check with them. My page still seems to be accessible just fine, so I can't tell whether it's just a small routine check...

Zoe gets a little more up close and personal in this playblast, so let's hope you can keep doing the Sam Fisher and stay above her inside the glass! I've made a couple more edits to the lighting in the meantime for a more vibrant look, which is a lot closer to the recent wallpaper I posted! Right...

In addition, here's a layer breakdown of the rendering, as well as a 4K version of the wallpaper itself! Since I get a lot of PMs from animation students I'm aware that there's a couple of people interested in these! The wallpaper you see here is compromised of 4 layers. For the final animation I...

Here's a little wallpaper to give you guys something while I'm still animating! This image is loosely tied to the animation progress, as I've been experimenting with a new alpha layer rendering method where I separate Zoe's fur from the rest of the environment to work around computational limitat...

As always, here's a little preview at how the animation's final quality could come out! Note that some effects such as volumetric lighting are still missing, while some other effects are improvised to get this out in a timely manner, means that the final result is likely going to look a bit fanci...

Felt like I owed you guys a follow up to that last cliffhanger, so here we go!
At last, there's lighting! I wouldn't say it's final just yet, but it should certainly be enough to get the point across! Now I only have to make sure I don't completely spoil the entire animation with these play...

Here's a new playblast showing some more of Zoe's monologue in the first part of the new animation. I've been grinding hard this month to get the most complicated sentences done, with most of the challenge being Zoe's expressions and getting them right while she's talking. The head movement in th...

Here's a new playblast, right from the first person perspective outside of the glass! Don't mind that weird strand hanging from Zoe's thumb, will have this removed later! (:
This clip should illustrate that with this animation I'm moving from implementing small voice clips, to full voice ac...
2019-01-15 23:17:09 +0000 UTC View PostA bit late, but I hope you all had a lovely transition into 2019 and were able to celebrate it with your friends! It's been a bit stressful here due to some traveling that is still ongoing for a bit, but nevertheless it was quite good. As always, thank you guys so much for the amazing ongoing sup...

First playblast for the new animation, for those curious what it's going to be! This was originally based on a Patron's idea, which has been altered a bit to allow for a little more interaction! It might be hard to make out from this clip since there's no effects or lighting, but the prey is actuall...

Here's another mini animation with Zoe having a typical night! I never really used the night time lighting for the apartment before, so here's finally a small animation that makes use of it! There's quite a large amount of deformers going on here, which ultimately ended up taking the longest time...
