Raiden/Yae animation gifs update 3

Got a few more new gifs here. I'm basically finished the animations for the first scene so I'll finish animating the 2nd scene next. Lighting/shading and map detail/fixes will come afterwards so it will still look a bit rough right now. I should finish the 2nd scene a bit faster since I won't need to meticulously match up 2 c...

Raiden/Yae animation gifs update 2

Hello, here's another progress update. I've been working hard on matching up the body positions for the whole scene, it can be a little tricky when the mouth needs to be connected at exactly the right position while also having movement variety.

I've continued to keep learning blender, but sometimes its a bit hard to fi...

Animation gifs

Thanks so much for all the support recently and I'm nearly at 40K followers on Twitter so I appreciate all of you so much for supporting me!!! :D

Here are the gifs I promised last post. The animation is progressing smoothly, I'll need to extend the length out next and think of more camera angles. I'm also thinking of ad...

Progress update

Hello, its been a while since the last update so I wanted to assure all my supporters that I've been busy working hard this past month

I continuously try to improve my skills with each release so this past month I've been doing some experimentation. I've tried a little bit of sound production myself to try to make my ow...

Which Makima do you prefer?

Here's another picture release with a few Makima/Kobeni goodies

The images and scene data have been added to the latest Tier 2 and 3 links.

Raiden and Yae character creation

I've finished the character creation for my next animation. You can see that I tried to make their faces as close to the game as possible (I took some creative liberties with their bodies of course). I also tried to include the best details possible on their clothes textures, combining different mods and shaders etc.

Th...

Early animation prototype

Hello, thanks for all the support the past few days with my Makima animation release :D

Just wanted to show you an early prototype of my next animation, back again to Raiden and Yae Miko! I'm also still trying to edit the characters/clothing so I'll show you some more previews once I'm finished editing the character car...

Camera Fix

Hello again, I've found out recently that some of my scenes can have a very weird camera that doesn't work properly if you have a certain pluign. To fix this you just need to delete the plugin "RealPOV.Koikatu.dll" from "BepInEx/Plugins"

Sorry if this affected anyone and I hope this helps out :D

Animation update

Hello again, it's been a little while so I just want to update everyone on my progress.

I'm 100% finished all animation tweaking and I'm in the process of rendering the videos, then all I need to do is add sound. The full release should be done within a week (hopefully...)

Over the past few days I've been spending...

Makima WIP render 2

I've added the other WIP render of the ending scene to the WIP folder. Now I just need to tidy up the lighting/shading then It's all finished, a few days of video editing after that and then it will be ready to post.

Genshin character bonus version poll

Please look at the last post for picture examples for the bonus video

Genshin character bonus version (Poll above)

Hey again, I'll be doing a Genshin character swap bonus version of my Makima animation for Patreon, with Aether. In order to make the animation match I'll need to use a tall female character will shorter hair, and I want to make it Mondstadt themed in Jeans office, so I've made the character options either Lisa, Eula or Jean....

Makima Grimace Shake Pictures

Hello, in case you didn't see my tweet recently, I've decided to occasionally do some non-animated pictures in-between animation releases. This way you all will get more content, and if certain pictures/poses are well received I could turn them into animations in the future.

This won't hinder my animation progress much ...

Makima animation 1:40 WIP render

Here is the 1:40 full render of the main scenario. I'm about 3/4 done now, I just need to fix up the main scene, and then finish animating the ending scene, which will be much simpler than the main one.

Male character poll

Please look at the last post for picture examples

Male character (Poll above)

Hello again, I'm nearly finished most of the animation work for the main scene, I just want to do a quick poll for the male character, your options are:

Option 1: Anonymous male

Option 2: Denji

You can vote on the poll in the next post :D

Makima animation preview

Hello again, I just want to share some preview gifs for my upcoming animation. I think I've finally perfected the technique of subtle movement during animation loops (you can subtly see the characters moving up/down/left/right naturally, so I'm pretty happy with it so far.

It will probably be around 2-3 minutes long, an...

Makima character and scene previews

Here is my progress so far for Makima's character creation. It's a lot harder to create an accurate 2d anime character instead of a 3d Genshin character, because the references are all hand drawn. Anyway I did the best I could. I think she still turned out pretty cute. It's my first time creating actual custom textures for a ...

Another animation update

Hey again, I've recently been trying to learn Blender and also prototype my next animation.

I've realized its been so long since my last non-genshin related animation that I want to work on something else besides Yae Miko/ Raiden Ei first. Also animating 2 main characters again would probably take too long alongside try...

Next animation update

Thank you to all my old and new Patrons for the continued support :D

I just wanna update you on what I'm doing next. I want to keep improving my abilities so I'll be spending a lot of time in the near future learning Blender animation. I'm guessing it won't be simple so it will probably take a while.

In the meanti...

Download Quota Exceeded fix

Hello, I just found out some people are having trouble downloading the new videos because the download quota has been exceeded if you aren't signed in

I did some research, and it seems like you will be able to download the videos as long as you are signed into a google account. 

If that doesn't wor...

(Outdated) (May Tier 2 Link) Hilichurl Fun Time (4k/1080p + alternate outfits)

Thanks for all the support that made this possible :D

There are 3 versions, each with a different outfit, and each 10+ minutes long!

Be warned, since they are 10 minutes long the files are very large, nearly 4gb per video if you want the highest quality 4k version. 1080p is a little less than 1gb per video

Reminder before release

My new animation will be released any day now, and I just want to remind everyone that I'll be merging the animations from Tier 1 into Tier 2. After the release, Tier 1 will only be used for WIP, polls and other things like that, with all animations being posted together in Tier 2.

The next few days will be your last ch...

Update on animation

Hello Patrons, just wanted to update you since its been a little while. I'm 100% finished all animation and I'm currently in the rendering/video editing stage. It will take a few days to render and then I'll need to add 10 minutes of audio/voices and sound effects, so there isn't much I can show you visually in this period. 2023-05-01 13:29:22 +0000 UTC View Post

1:56 WIP Render #6

Well that's it, all major animation is complete with about 10 minutes of animation total....Damn I'll need a break after this.

Originally this was gonna be a simple "spreading" ending scene but I kind of just turned it into this on a whim, I think it turned out alright, maybe not as complicated as the other videos but I...

2:04 WIP Render #5

Here is my latest WIP Render, now only one more scene to go, the final scene will be Amber and Eula having fun together ;)

I promise the full release will look better with more lighting and shading. It's looking to be between 9-10 minutes long, and thinking about it nearly 10 minutes of unique animation is a lot of work...
