Dyson Love value pack
sent to third and second tier members
after looking at my previous post i decided to go back right away and redo from the ground up (or at least the flats)
removed a bunch of layers and simplified all the shadows and highlights. the goal is to make it look just like an animated cell which i think i lost sight of earlier
sorry for no post yesterday. sunday is pretty much the only day i give myself off and so i don't do much work if any that day. tomorrow is the last day of this "grind" so it looks like 10 or 11 is my limit at one sitting.
i will have this done by the end of today
ok so this is done and on to the next. this takes longer than my other style but i can only get faster and better if i practice
first for today and the next few will be more anime styled.....so that will slow things down until i can get my speed up
so i went and rendered out the background and put it in this pic
so i need to unify it but that should also make it a lot easier to decide the lighting on the characters
too tired to say anything cleaver, onward to the next one
so i rendered a bunch last night and now to paint as many as possible. as you can see, the more involved backgrounds add so much more fun to the image. on to the next (hopefully i can get more than 2 done today )
well that makes 2 for today. i am going to pre-render a bunch for the rest of today so that tomorrow i can concentrate on just painting
was working on this since late last night, well on to the next one
been trying to post this for hours but the system would not let me
ok so i am going to challenge myself. 7 days, just these two characters, as many folio images as i can create per day.
lets see just how much i can create when i focus on just one task
last night i had an idea for a rig that removes the need for lots of shape keys. this rig is meant to give as much direct control as possible so that only the eye lids need shape keys
ok so liu's model is ready, just need to rig her and Arthur. put them in their bed room and let them go at it
Liu and Arthur Sheeah's bed room. it has been way too long since i really concentrated on backgrounds, just kinda slapping them in there but no more. with all the tools and bits i have access too things can get a lot more interesting. to bad i am still so slow at these
rigged and ready to go. there is a plugin being worked on for blender called DELTAmush if it works like they promise then it will make these models even better
sent off to third tier
if you did not get it then that means you have not been charged or have a declined method of payment
because i want to make more Liu/Arthur folios in the celshaded style i decided to make a new model for Liu that i could import into Blender and Rig. i made a few small alterations to Liu in that i made her bust size slightly bigger and hips slightly rounder then shesheiks and her feet are also slightly smaller.
i think today i will rig and send models to my third tier patreons and m...

well line work still takes quite a while for me as i was working most the day on this but i am getting a bit better at it.
one thing i use to do was try to "collect" styles of illustration. to be able to copy multiple forms of genres so i could have more flexibility in my expressions.
one "mentor" tried to stomp that out but now i am getting back into it
man i wish it only took me 15 mins instead of an entire day to get these done
since it is a LOT easier to pose Characters in Blender i can put more effort into the back grounds because i am not wasting so much time trying to get DAZ to cooperate
i know i know bad puns but damn this took way too long to rig and of course every thing will need to be re done when i make him animate-able because this rig is NOT conducive to animation but now i can finish Mar and Shesheiks comic
oh boy this stuff takes a while don't it?
anyway i have updated and edited Mar's base armor so i can start importing it to blender for rigging and with currently 56 bits that seems like a tedious task
sorry for the lack of updates today. i have been working on a value pack or old and new folio works and it have taken all day for reworking and artistic cleanup
