Feb26XV Aranea


Hello there! interesting week eh? ^^;; but as long as I still got my Aranea fix, I don't really care.

PIXIV
GOFILE

I included a comparison between the remake and the 2023 OG one. Back when I first started, I used to do only less than 20 seconds animation. and also used too much overlay VFX lol.

Personally, I could see the difference and in which area I've improved on. But as many remakes, maybe the new one will look worse for some people. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder after all. Honestly right now it seems to me I can't get any better than my current skill level... feeling stuck basically.

But who knows maybe I can still improve and learn new things as I continue...as per usual.

...Or maybe I'll get even worse instead lol. but eh... we'll see. Even now, when I look back at my previous recent animations, I think they look off and stiff. The thing is, I never realize something is off or stiff during animating process. I'd thought "This is the best version yet!!". Until days passed and I look back and have a little retrospect... then all I see is a faulty creation.
I heard this is a common problem for animators or artists in general. Always feel unsatisfied with past works no matter how recent. Btw, I also made her wear an Office Lady attire once a long long time ago.... eh....maybe much later on I'll remake her in one too.

UP NEXT


Next up is Chloe, but I won't write her article on FANBOX nor PIXIV next week. If you don't know why, I suggest you read my Feb26's announcement post HERE.

If you want to read next week's "article", Follow me on my Subscribestar's blog. ....I still need to search for a temp filehost for her too. In a way, it's like back to how I used to do things. so maybe not gonna feel too different anyway. Just no more direct linking on FANBOX.
Want a cookie?

After Chloe, it's Cloud of Darkness' turn to debut. She is one of those characters with big accessories, so idk how I'd do her yet. Some of my favorite animators always include her tentacles in the action... maybe I should try that too. ...they are tentacles right?

That's about it.
Thanks for all your kind support and donations as always m(_ _)m
please do stay safe and healthy. may lady luck brings you fortune for things ahead.
See ya!
