Lil warmup - Pallet Town Moonbase cover

I actually made this to warm up for the cave story cover! Nothing fantastic, in retrospect I would probably want to make most of the notes longer if I uploaded this, but I'll put it here as a little treat for now.

Cave Story Moonbase Alpha cover! Also Happy Trans Day of Visibility! Also Hatsune Miku!

It's been a while, how are y'all doing?

It felt great to make stuff again. For the hundredth time I've been caught up in the quicksand of quality, but I was glad to have an idea I was happy with ("duet" between MBA and Miku) and a song that matched well, was well-known and that I loved, and...

Ys III: Dootstein Castle

Shh, don't tell anyone but this is another one I finished in 2021 but never uploaded :3

Deltamoon - Acid Tunnel Of Love

I guess I'm sticking with the terrible title """pun"""s

Another "I'm not dead" post!

Hello again!

After all that talk of overcoming anxiety on my last post, how I'm not gonna worry so much... I guess that's still true, but that didn't account for my lack of motivation to make anything in the first place. I am still picking away here and there, and seeing the uh... reaction ...

Actually Fun Halloween video

UPDATE: had to reupload, her face didn't animate properly in the last one :v

I just had to make a high-energy halloween video. 

I always forget to upload these ahead of time ...

Doot Tone

Rant / therapy session incoming:

I'm proud of putting effort into videos but the only way I was able to trick myself into uploading anything is to hit rock bottom in the ironic ouroboros of "haha it's cool because it's so bad, but it's so good actually, but don't forget it's bad so I am imm...

Two on-hold moonbase songs WIP (2/2)

Here's the rough work for two songs I was working on, "Dearly Beloved" from Kingdom Hearts 358 days/2 or however it's titled, and "A Melody of Nostalgic Reminiscence" from Bravely Default is attached as well.

These are just the rough MIDIs I slapped together as a framework for the moonbase ...

What I'm workin on now (1/2)

I was feeling like doing something totally different, so on and off, over the course of a few months, I've been porting over TF2 stuff into Blender. It was so long ago I forgot how I got the map in, but I converted koth_nucleus into an SMD, but the method didn't keep the textures  (more spec...

L'il Name change, and another sneak peek

Now the name's "Oasty", just a heads up. Also, here's a snippet of a full song I made as a commission for someone else's animation project, I'll release the full thing once they've uploaded their video. The song is the Danganronpa OP "Dead or Lie", keep an eye on 2020-11-03 05:49:54 +0000 UTC View Post

Happy Halloween!

This could use some better audio mixing but I don't have the time :< 

.blend file is in the exclusive rewards post!

Video Incoming

Aaaa halloween video is rushed and down to the wire as usual. It feels great to finally activate my brain for once, I wish there were more hours in a day again. 

Right now I'm rendering the animation, I'm already late to go somewhere but I gotta get this video out! 

Whoa hey it's been a while

Many things have happened, the world certainly is doing its thing. 

There've been many things that I barely attempted to get started on only to basically forget the next day. I can't give the excuse that I've been busy, cause I've spent many hours doing nothing for many days. I graduat...

Hatsune Mikubase Alpha provides a realistic simulation of life on a natural satellite

My brain is mush and I need sleep to finish my assignments and tests tomorrow. I'll write up more when I get the chance aaa

Ok I'm here, like over a month late hehe.

I wanted to do something with Hatsune Miku just to see how it compared to using Moonbase, and I gotta say it's in a wei...

Initial Doot: Space Boy

As a sequel to "Initial Doot: I Need Your Love", I tried to get this out for Halloween. Clearly that didn't work out.

I may do a behind the scenes post or video, there's a decent amount of stuff that went into this.

Halloween finally gets me to work on something

I know it's shallow but I always get a lil squirt of dopamine whenever a video gets a random surge of views, and that certainly happened to that Initial Doot video from years ago. 

BUT I don't want my brain to associate that state of mind with doing nothing but stare at numbers on a sc...

Spongebob band geeks collab entry

Not really a video anyone asked for, and it's only like 9 seconds so I won't charge for this.

This was really a learning experience with Blender 2.8, and with its Eevee engine. I thought I would snobbily stick with Cycles but I'm liking eevee more than I expected. It's definitely "good enou...

Hoo boy there's a lot of effects in the original

Thankfully there isn't too much animation of the characters. That I still need to make. And decide on the style. And lots more. 

One step at a time.

I'm gonna try a Steins;Gate 0 video

Time to treat this like a personal blog again:

I've been doing a lot of thinking, attending a lot of video editing class, drinking a lot of vodka and playing a lot of games. Basically everything but actually make youtube videos. 

I've tried putting up sticky notes with inspiratio...

Wow real vocaloids are easy to use

I heard about Synthesizer V, downloaded it and knocked this out in an hour. It sounds really good, but if it's so braindead easy for me what's the point? There's no challenge. 

Besides, I don't think anyone cares about no...

Konosuba Moonbase video

This was made in one 9-hour chunk, see the full thing here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LAmpSKaAkw 

Even though I made it forever ago my sleep schedule is still recovering. And this post it a...

I made this in 9 hours

I was motivated by a certain 怠惰な-紫の uploading a video, I thought of an idea while eating Wendy's, got home and streamed myself working on it, then it was 7am and I was done. I'm gonna upload the whole 9-hour vod on april fool's (then the full video later in the day)

Triple baka - Eevee test

I streamed the process of animating this little test, the start of the video for Miku. It's using  Blender 2.8's new engine Eevee, which is much faster than Cycles and still looks pretty cool.

I'm gonna stream on Twitch!

Youtube's been weird about you linking to your Twitch via video, but for this week I'm gonna try to stream every day! https://www.twitch.tv/oastvids

After that I'll probably stream videos monday and games thursday, depen...

Snowy

The version of Blender 2.8 I was using didn't render dead particles despite me telling it to, so I guess the snow just disappears. Otherwise 2.8 is looking ok, and it was nice getting some help from folks on Newgrounds. (Also yeah I have a newgrounds account for more actual original art stuff... ...

Snowy

I'm still alive, though I wish I could say the same for my cat. 

I'm trying out Blender 2.8, and I'm exploring more shaders. It's a moonbase version of "Snowy" from Undertale, the Snowdin Forest theme. Falling snow to be added for the video.

More fun with scripting

I was thinking about writing some code to automate the little dooting dance. Let's see if my python script works!

Uhhhh, kinda!

After I make this not a spine-twisting dance, I'm gonna try to finally learn how to read midi files and try to work that into the dooting as well.

Moonbase Circulation

I've been keeping this one in my back pocket for a while, and this isn't the only song that's being worked on.

It was spooky to upload something for once instead of posting it here and doing nothing more...

By tomorrow hopefully YouTube will update my name and profile pic so there's no confu...

Halloween 2018!

aaaa I finished a video! I wrote a bunch in the comments, but if you're reading this here just imagine what I'm saying amplified ten times! ♥

(I'm gonna change the title and maybe thumbnail after a while to make it more of a video that makes a bit more sense in the future.)

(WIP - Ruins joke) An actual idea for a Halloween video

Don't read this or watch the video if you want the full effect of the joke when it's complete and uploaded.

I thought of this dumb joke and it was so stupid that I'm actually following through with it. So far I need to add the Jons + doots visuals, make some sort of undertale battle visual that's ...
