FAQ (Frequently Asked Question)

- Do you take Commission?

Currently, no.  I don't really want to treat this like a job. I do this because it's my hobby. 
But I'm not closing the possibility of me opening commission in the future. if I ever decided to take one, it could be because I'm in dire need of money. like losing my IRL job and can't pay my rent for some reason.

I'm currently living fine with my minimum wage job over here in my country (around 200usd/month). so not anytime soon. but bad thing like another corona pandemic could happen who knows.

- Do you plan on adding sound to your animation?

Not really, no. and I don't think I'm well equipped for Audio works. I'm also tone deaf.
Unless you are fine with low quality work like that, maybe I will try to add sound sometime in the future. I also could pay a VA and SFX artist to do the job, but then again, I'd rather use all your kind donation and support towards me perfecting my craft and hardware for rendering. Visual is what I do best. I'm not a good visual artist, but I'm confident in my VFX learning skill more than SFX.

And I think currently it's good for the community that I provide free animations to sound artists out there to master and promote their craft as well.

- Do you mind if I dub / share your works?

I don't mind.  go right ahead. credits would be nice, you don't have to though. after all, I'm doing this for fun.

- Any plan to release your 3D models?

If you are thinking that my rig is as good as those models from talented people on smutbase, then you are wrong. Most of the time I still need to adjust the weight painting as I pose. And those legal stuff is a pain. Fanarts like what I do here is already a gray area to begin with let alone custom models.

but, when I feel like I'm finally good at rigging, personally I don't see why not.

- Do you take requests?

I don't. however, ideas are welcome. but I will choose who / what I animate. i don't want to have any promise/strings attached. 
if I like your idea I'll do it. if I don't, then I won't. simple as that. unless I'm open for commission.

Use simple english if you can. I'm not a native speaker.
Thank you Very much m(_ _)m

First Post (July -27 - 2023)

  Hello! It's my first post on FANBOX. (or SubscribeStar.)
If you haven't checked my last submission on Pixiv, the lady of this week is Quistis Trepe from FF8. I feel like I wronged her. but I decided to post her anyway. because maybe someone will like it.

FF15

 I finished rigging FF15's Gentiana last week. I'll animate her sooner or later.
And here is the list of my FF15 models that are ready for animation :
- Aranea Highwind
- Lunafreya Nox Flauret
- Iris Amicitia
- Gentiana
- Young Luna
- Sarah (Terra World)
  Aranea being the most complex rig with quite lot of costumes. Because I love her. To this day, I'm still sad and angry we don't get Episode Aranea. That's the one expansion I've been waiting for the most out of the bunch. I will keep animating Aranea at least once a month. Some of you probably have realized that's how I do things by now.

==============================================

FF14

As for the next FF14 character,  it's gonna be either 'Raya O Senna or 'Zero' from Endwalker. They are not ready yet, I still have to rig them and do some shading. They live rent free in my brain atm.
I never finished Shadowbringers. it has been 3 or 4 years since I stopped my XIV subscription due to IRL circumstances.And since you can't really escape spoilers on the internet, Especially on Youtube, That's what led me to animate Venat and the Twelve. They are all so beautiful so I had an instant urge to rig and animate all of them. I will animate them again sometime in the future of course.
There are probably countless of beautiful female NPCs/Monsters that I don't know in Shadowbringers and Endwalker. If you want to point out specific FF14 waifu you'd like me animate, please do tell me. I might like them enough to start animating them.
And I don't mind animating younger looking NPCs. As long as they are not looking waaaaaay too young like a Lalafell or Khloe Aliapoh. I have nothing against them or people who like them, but I just don't feel comfortable animating them.  I hope you understand. but if it's someone like Ryne, Gaia, Meteion, or even Young Lunafreya, I don't really mind. they don;t have a toddler body at least.

==============================================


Workflow

My current pace is 1 character,3 animations per week. I will try to keep it that way. 
so far, it is the most comfortable pace for me. Nothing is gonna change that pace unless I get better at animating / something bad IRL happens. 
Things could go faster, or slower depending on the situation.


And That is all.
I'm grateful for all who support me and the donations. 
Thank you very much m(_ _)m
