Spike the legendary super swine (Commissions open)

@spikesartbook.bsky.social

Foolish jiren thought he could handle me. But he doesnt realize just how maximum my power is!!!

#dbz #furry #boar

Boarlly looking away as jiren from dragon ball super zooms in from the right, aiming to kick him

Jiren kicks but boarly swiftly ducks, hand clenched to retaliate with a devastating punch

The punch lands in a devasting uppercut to the gut. hitting jiren so hard it changes the direction of the speedlines from right to left to diagonally going up and right, and creating a shockwave breaking the sound barrier

The art style changes showing shockwaves and a trail leading to space where a sparkle signifies jiren has been launched a great distance. Boarly holds the arm up and looks down contemplatively as a haiku in red is written beside them:

"You foolish weakling
Go back to aura farming
Get out of my sight"

Coding

Looked into multiple potential systems for combat interactions, particularly in how to interface locational damage and melee attacks with networking.
(Sorry for not much progress here! We've been busy.)

Models & Misc

Finished the T2 Dragon's Broadcast call. This was a pretty simple adjustment since it's the same as the T3 call with adjusted pitch to make T2 sound younger.
Updated animations for Scoria's sprint flap and tap flap.
Updated flight smacks and animated skims for all flying wyrms (except T3 Dragon).
Updated and added sockets to the T3 Dragon. The sockets are placed near the wingtips and chest so trail VFX and dive wind can be attached.
Tweaked the setup of our wing trail VFX to adjust the appearance while still keeping performance in mind.
Implemented our existing flight VFX! These include wing trails, speedlines, dive wind, and a camera zoom. Each VFX can activate and scale according to different velocity. Players will be able to disable effects in case of motion sickness. We have some very adjustable parameters, so we still might tweak the look and feel! The wing trails especially have some potential for future cosmetics, with changing the colour and emissives.

I have never seen a silver 911 Slant Nose. This Flachbau was never one of the prettier 911s, but in silver it looks like... well... Silver over black RUF Speedlines. I'd drive it. Wow.

Sasuke predicted that Boruto and Sarada will be the ones who fix everyone's memories, and what we see here is Sarada and Boruto working together for people's memories, with Sumire's support.

Sasuke with speedlines says that whatever is going on is something that only Boruto and Sarada can fix.

"Wandering the Infinite Dungeon" is a 111 page manga oneshot about Io, a mimic who can't embody treasure chests like his peers. As a result, he's stuck in the dungeon room where he was born. Just when he's about to give up ever leaving, a black horned monster appears to give him one last chance.

A panel from the Wandering the Infinite Dungeon manga showing a godlike figure embracing a planet, she has six wings, two of which cover her eyes, and she's smiling.

A panel from the Wandering the Infinite Dungeon manga showing a mimic springing up from a treasure chest with a mouth full of sharp teeth, a huge tongue, and tentacles. A lone suit of armor faces it. The background is speedlines with the text "GYAAAA"

A panel from the Wandering the Infinite Dungeon manga showing a floaked humanoid with dark hair and black horns using a greatsword to slash a tentacle with a cross of energy and an explosion of blood. Action text reads "SH SHAK"

Cover art for the Wandering the Infinite Dungeon manga featuring a lanky humanoid robot with a single glimmering eye, sitting on a throne doing a classic "demon lord" type pose with one fist resting languidly against its cheek. The image is lit strongly from below, and stars glimmer among clouds in the background. The title of the manga is at the bottom in white, "WANDERING THE INFINITE DUNGEON."

"Speedlines and water works" is such a good way to describe the surprise of seeing untagged generic porn on the tl
Also not a prude, just tired of seeing the same five angles designed for the male gaze over and over again

Day 22 of FF posting screenshots. This one's for a classic. Ben Grimm, the Thing and all the weird inventive poses Jack was able to put him into. It's a delight pretty much every time, weird, goofy and always with weight.

Ben as Thing absolutely whiffing on a punch with Speedlines and him saying "Just like a DAME! Always puttin' the kibosh on things just when the FUN is startin'!"

Ben zonked the fuck in the forground as in the background Johnny spidey poses, and Reed carries Sue out of a vent. Reed: "QUICK! Put Sue through the wall and then follow.. FAST!"

Ben and Hulk making the end screen of Rocky III

Reed in the background doing a thinking pose while in the foreground Sue stumbles forward terrified, Johnny zooms away and Ben, looking the most haggard any pile of rocks has ever looked trods along

Snack Canary (+ Meetup in Bellabel Park)

@snackcanary.bsky.social

I understand why they decided to try and make it it's own thing. But It's such an unenviable position. There's so much that's uncanny here.

And then they also wanted it to be an open world thing with online co-op and RPG mechanics...

Also the thing with the bike is a war crime. The speedlines.

There's a shot where a character is rotating at the same, slower pace while the background rotates faster and faster till they're speedlines... and from there it pans in a character from a scene SEVERAL DAYS in the future.
