I went a bit overboard this year with Halloween things. Treats for all, I guess you could say. Be sure to check all the postings besides this one; there are 3 more. Marie Rose was a last minute animation loop I did for fun. Turned out great, I think. I was messing around with a Honoka model, just testing her out, and posed her like she'd 'dressed up' for Halloween and lastly, but the main release, Sadako from The Ring finding out how old VCRs worked when you cast binding spells on them or some such. That one turned out great as well, I think. I'd had most of the begining made for a few years, but never did sort what happened after til this year.

    Enjoy all the treats.

    Just a short loopable animation of Marie Rose. One with music and one without music. Thought it was a fun animation to make.

    Just some mess arounds testing Honkers. 4 with and 4 without text.

    Happy Halloween

    So the 'which do you prefer' poll was interesting. It nearly came out even, with Merry-Go-Pound 'winning' in the end. It was my most popular poll yet. Both ideas will be attempted, and most likely come to some kind of release since neither seem to complex, but since Merry-Go-Pound won the poll I'll start it first; and yeah, that'll be the project name. In fact, it might end up with two different animations in time, since I have this Batgirl version stuck in my head but it'd only work well with some voice lines, so I'd need to sort that. I have a few ideas that are stuck in limbo because of voice lines. A very specific Incredibles comes to mind, but I won't AI them, but I can't afford them either, so limbo for now.

    Awhile back Marie Rose took the place of Gwen Tennyson as the de facto Holiday animation character. She wasn't in anything for Halloween this year. I rectified that by making a looped animation with her, bringing this year's Halloween release total to 3 projects. Actual release number is now 1 video, 2 loops (same animation, different sounds), 8 pics (4 with and 4 without watermarks). Sadako from The Ring (the video) was the only original project, but messing around with a new model I ended up with some pics, and then like I said about Marie's new loop. So surely there's something for everyone.

    And yes, they are all free releases. Like always, Holiday projects are free, even the alt versions. Makes the end of the year's run a big ass freebie.

    That can be taken either way, but yeah, rendered and compiled; ready to go on Halloween which falls on a Saturday. Handy. "Quality Assurance" (my friend who gets to view everything) tells me the visual quality is, for some reason, a little less than some others. No idea why, since it's the exact same settings in SFM and Vegas as everything else since who knows how long now. It's not No Cure bad though; it's still fine. Just. Less? I dunno. You all can see it then and judge. Maybe it was the lighting.

    So many ideas floating around. So many new ones pop in or get tossed at me. It can be a bit much, really. Been harder to focus for awhile now. I think maybe it's a lack of theme direction, and by that I mean since I don't have a constant kind of theme/genre maybe I bounce around trying to find it or something. Things just don't seem to click and go like before, which sucks, so sorry if I seem a bit scattered still. Right now I have probably a dozen, at least, ideas going; none of which grab me like things did before. I was actually working on a new idea last night when I got some things suggested to me that I immediately changed to. Not hard to derail me, that's for sure, but the new ideas are more engaging. I really like the weekly Discord Streams. They keep me focused on something. Shame Discord is shit and I'm trying to find an alternative.
