Finalized Environment & Space Hero Updates
Here's a look at the finalized forest environment for the Encounter Halloween special! The animation will play out at two different times of day, starting with a blue hour twilight-style lighting that you get just before nightfall. I do remember being in a forest with friends during this kind of...
Environment Progress - Encounter Halloween Special
Here's a look at the new location in which the upcoming Bunsen animation will play out! The idea was a dense forest path that leads to a bit of a clearing on which Space Hero will start a campfire, before being greeted by the dragon that haunts these woods, hoho!I've admittedly only started ...

Bunsen Mini Animation - Public Version
A new mini animation featuring *GASP* Bunsen! This is a bit of a test run of working with Bunsen's rig before tackling a longer animation with him in the coming months.This started out as a bit of an idea between me and Acidic, who originally made the model before it was rigged by Nutty_Mr_Gecky...
Bunsen Mini Animation - 1080p/60FPS
Here's the finalized Bunsen mini animation! Definitely one of the longer ones, oop!Note that I MIGHT add sound later down the line. I actually started doing some sound design today and realized I had absolutely no dragon sounds, let alone a voice actor for Bunsen, so I guess I still got a bit of...

Big Sloshy Tummy Part 2 - Playblast (SUPER Rough)
Two playblasts for two different animations in the same month? Oh snap!I had actually planned to post the finalized Bunsen mini animation this month, but it's still rendering for another day, which is why I had already started working on next month's animation in the meantime! This means I&#...
Dangling Above - Playblast
But of a deja vu moment from an older animation, only that Space Hero makes it in this one! <:A preview of the mini animation that I'm hoping to release by the end of the month! Probably the first animation that isn't staring Zoe or a blue vixen, hoho! There's another scene that precedes...
Encounter 2 - VFX Breakdown
Alternative Link (MEGA): LinkHere's a new VFX breakdown of the recent major animation! This was originally planned as a series of small clips, but I realized I had so much material that it made more sense wrapping everything up in an actual video!This breakdown highlights the creation of the env...
Friendship ended with Rasterization (Lighting Studies)
Ray tracing is my friend now! In preparation to the upcoming animations, I've started reworking one of my environments, starting with the Forest Pass from the recent Encounter 2 animation. I'm planning on using the environment in next month's mini animation that will feature Bunsen and S...

When people asked me what's next I've usually been a bit reserved in my announcements, with the only major reveal being the most obvious one that Encounter 3 is already being planned. This was however only the tip of the iceberg, as there have already been a few things on the horizon that we...
Encounter 2 - Alt Angles (Public)
MEGA Version: LinkAnd here's the completed alt angles! I have to admit I'm even liking some of these more than the angles in the original, especially that final gulp scene, oh gosh! I'm quite happy with some of these scenes, so I didn't feel particularly shy to show them off at a muc...

POV Lick Preview, Encounter 3 and future plans
Getting a bit of a deja vu from the first Encounter animation here, haha! There were quite a couple of changes I needed to do animation-wise, as the scene was pretty much designed to mostly work from one perspective. I first tried getting away with just strapping a camera to Space Hero’s head, but...
More alt angles previews!
Looks like I'm still a bit behind with my posting schedule, but I feel like I'm slowly catching up! Note that I'm finally back home, so here's hoping things will go back to a normal schedule soon!I've made some progress with the alternative angles and would say I'm halfway-is...
Alt Angles/Lighting - First preview
First off, thank you guys so much on the overwhelming feedback on the final release on Encounter 2! I sadly didn't get much time to celebrate, as I had a flight to catch only a few hours after the release, which was related to another project.There wasn't really much time to prepare for trav...

Internal Swallow Scene - RT Playblast
Oh dear, I think I've never posted a playblast this close before an animation release, but since this scene is still not ready for rendering I might do so!Right now all scenes are pretty much done, except for this one, which still has me tinkering with the simulation of thick slobber. This is ro...
More animation previews & new gullet model
Rendering is still ongoing and so are the last bits of animation. I've recently finalized the animation on the post-credits scene, which I'm currently preparing for rendering.Earlier on the rendering on the Zoe falling scene was finally done. There's only the additional bonus scene left ...
Stretching - Playblast (No Lighting)
First off, those that follow my Twitter account have probably already heard that I needed to move the full release of Encounter 2 from late January to late February due to the holidays being a little busier than expected, as well as me falling terribly sick earlier this month. I'm already back a...

Steady - RT Playblast

Another insides test with Fluids
Looks like our Space Hero will be going on a bit of a journey through Zoe's insides, oh dear!Here's another test with some fancy bifrost fluids for the later half of the internal scene, which will take us into Zoe's tube-like intestines! Since endo and full-tour have been a request for m...
Stomach with Bifrost fluid simulation - Playblast
Hohoho, this has been a long time coming! Since there won't be any fur to render for the upcoming internal scenes, I've been able to migrate them to the latest version of Maya and fully rely on Redshift for rendering these. I remember posting about this back when I first started making the a...
