Night 2 update to my #3danimation from yesterday. Changed it from 24 to #60fps and now the main parts of the animation are complete, and most of the inbetween frames are done. I may still tweek, but happy with this progress.

Ok, haven't sat down and worked on a #3danimation for quite some time. This is still heavily a #wip but for just a couple hours of work, I like where it's at so far. Will post more as more is done.

Tonight I worked on a #pixelart #fursona of a friend. His #fox character wearing a pup hood. Making art his stream always screens. First character I've made that didn't use one of my templates from my game.

At work, kids sometimes call me Steve cause of my beard. So, I got the idea to create a #3dmodel of Jack Black's Steve done in the style of #TenaciousD 's music video Video Games. Early #WIP

A cartoon representation of Jack Black with a big gray and brown beard wearing exaggerated diamond armor from Minecraft.

So, had an idea to take that #pixelart I did for a friend and #animate it into a cool attack since he's a #gamer. This is the exact type of stuff I can do for you over on my @ko-fi.com page.

Decided to do another #pixelart #fursona for a gamer #streamer friend of mine. As always, did this in #Aseprite.

If you want to check out his streams, and I recommend it, head on over to www.twitch.tv/djevocation. He streams pretty much every week night from around 7pm Central on.

Created a couple #pixelart characters tonight for some friends of each's #fursona. Was a fun challenge to see how well my pixel style could translate to #furryart. I think they turned out pretty well.

#aseprite #2dart #pixel
Duke Hyena. A gray striped hyena furry with green eyes and dark stripes along its body Bluefists. A fox with orange and light fur wearing a straw hat and suspenders. He also is wearing blue gloves.

Here's more of Jessie in #unity. I like the fur shader. It's subtle but makes it look soft. Just need to put on a tail and the #3dmodel should be done. Then onto rigging for #animation.

Not a gamedev journey, but a personal one this post. I have been struggling to lose weight and recently started #Wegovy to help. As of week 9, I am down 5.5kg or 12lbs from 161.7kg to 156.2kg (work scale is in kg).
So far, the #weightloss journey is going good. 1/10th of the way done.
A chart showing the overall decrease in weight to date.

Found a nice shell fur #shader that makes Jessie look just so soft and fluffy in #Unity. If anyone is looking for something like this for their #gamedev projects, find it below and give them props.

I am having fun working on this #unicorn #3dmodel. Put it into #unity3d, and gave it hair and fuzz in #blender. Will need to rig it soon so I can start posing and getting it ready for the Puppet Project.

Peek-a-boo!

Been getting more done with Jessie, the #unicorn #3dmodel I am doing for work. Should be able to get it rigged for #animation soon. Has been a blast making this little cutie.

I mentioned Jessie the #Unicorn last post. Here is a pic of my work desk with a Jessie doll I am using for the #3dmodel inspiration.

Had fun on today's #stream. Today, I worked on more #vampires for my #gamedev project. I think they turned out well. They all feel like different types of vampires, which fits the game's lore well.

#pixelart #pixel #aseprite #2dart #art #gameart
A modern day vampire wearing fine clothing. A Vampire Juggernaut. A towering being in darkened armor and wielding a strange sword. Its eyes glow a bright red from the shadows of its helmet. A scrawny vampire that floats weightlessly off of the ground. Pale with sunken eyes, crossing it's arms across its chest.

2/2 Today just created the first vampire enemy sprite and also had an idea for an interesting effect to add to it. The dark heart effect may not be in the final #animation but it was fun creating it.

Forgot I had to made dinner, so done streaming for now! Did get a few things done though. Hope you like them all! A husband and wife from the game and a base for the naga enemies.

#pixelart #pixel #aseprite #gamedev #2dart #art
Daneeb Shaddam. Mistress of the Phoenix and Lady of the Novalords. She is wearing an elegant red dress with a golden bracelet and belt. A naga. A hulking snake like humanoid with no legs, just a long slithering body. Joseph Shaddam, Caer'Xean of the Novalords. He has long hair with a whit streak down the front. He is wearing an elegant vest and a golden bracelet.

My programmer is trying to learn Godot and we decided to pivot from For the Throne to a game that may be easier to make. We'll get back to FtT but for now, a new character for the new game. #gamedev #pixelart #pixel #2dart #art #aseprite #swords
The Edge of Insanity - A "heavy razor" type sword made of Cha'Keilian crystal. This massive blade is too large to be wielded properly by most being. In appearance, the crystal looks similar to rose quartz and is slightly transparent. The Flamberge - This wavy curved blade was the first weapon owned by the King of Blades. Once his mundane practice sword, he had it enchanted so that it would never dull and now actually ignites into flame, burning his foes as he slashes them. The King of Blades - Self proclaimed best blade master across all known worlds, he backs his boasts up with actual skill and a collection of impressive weaponry. He wears heavy garments and banded chest armor. Oh his face and hands are blue blade shaped tattoos that he calls the Blade Hydra. He has a dark brown trimmed beard and mustache and surrounding his right eye is a strange glimmer of gold.

#pixel #pixelart #aseprite #2dart #gamedev
A large brutish orc with a chinstrap bear and face/body paint. Has leather harness straps and studded leather pants. An orc with a mostly shaved head and face/body paint. Wearing a loincloth a little else.

1/2 Completed 5 sprites tonight. They were all variations on others. These are part of an order of the Obsidian Spire. The Acolyte, Adept and Master. Their robes get more detailed and darker the higher their rank. #pixelart #pixel #gamedev #2dart #aseprite

Got a few fx animations done during today's stream. Made a fireball, two fireball hitting something explosions, and an effect for an "earth toss" attack. Below is one of the effects when the fireball hits something.

Whew, these take long when I don't have a base to start from. It still needs some cleaning up, but I have to get to bed. This is the result so far for one of the bosses I have planned. #pixel #pixelart #gamedev #aseprite #2dart

Meet The Gaia.
The Gaia. A large elemental creature made of earth and plant life. Quartz cristals jut out from its body and a tree sprouts from its back. Instead of legs, many vines support its hulking mass.
