Heyo,
Here's the WIP feed for the 24 Hour Animation challenge! I'll be updating this throughout the day with more WIP renders, so feel free to check back later! I figure this'll be better than pinging everyone each render, and for at least this round I think I'll keep the WIPs to Patreon. Maybe that'll change in the future, but hey, this i...

Thanks for all the suggestions! As with the Pin-Up polls, it's tough to choose just one idea to make. That being said, I've picked an idea for the 24 Hour Challenge, and it'll be a bit of a mash-up between some of your suggestions. I don't want to spoil all the deets, but the animation will involve a bit of Sombra hacking and butt...

As I had mentioned last month, I'm planning on doing a 24 hour animation challenge, and now that I'm past Covid I'm going to give it a shot Monday or Tuesday next week (5/23 or 5/24). To prep for it, I'll need some suggestions for shorter animations, either loops or quick animations! With the enti...

Some of you may have seen my Twitter post yesterday, but after 2.5 years I finally caught ye olde COVID. I'm planning on taking things slow until I get better, and I'm hoping that when it passes I'll have more to show. So far the symptoms haven't been awful, but it's utterly sapped my strength. With any luck it'll have mostly pass...

Looks like spring is in full swing, and it's creepin closer to summer! I had mentioned this in the last WIP update, but I'm set on finishing the Brig animation this month and I'll be re-opening commissions once that takes shape. It's been a long time coming, but I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out so far, and I've lear...

Hey all!
Quick update on the Brigitte animation. The animation is in the timing/polish stage now! This will involve a lot of smaller changes like shape keys, finger/realistic motion, as well as the application of the physics. The timing is still a bit off and the camera motions need to by synched up, but we're in the final stretch! I...

Tombs may be her specialty, but Lara has been through more than her fair share of jungles. She'd spent nearly three days searching for any sign of a remnant civilization, but the sheer vastness of the Amazon meant that much of it's footprint had not been fully explored. Suddenly, Lara felt a pinprick of pain at the back of her neck. She slap...

Nuff' said. Just a preview from the Brig project, but I thought it'd be worthwhile to show y'all as things start to fall in line. No expansion (YET), but still a fun exercise to get things set up.

Heyo! Here's another WIP update! As has been the case for the past few weeks, I've been working a lot on the Brigitte animation. It's getting longer and longer as I add more motions in, and I'm going through the rough pass for detail and timing. I ended up editing the rig a bit to add in a nipple-centric bone to help with the deformations (I had...

Lots of progress this week! I've gotten a lot done on the expansion sequence, and I've fleshed out the dialogue parts for the intro and made space for sfx later in the sequence. I didn't have as much time as I had anticipated to work on the sequence this week, but I was able to smooth out a couple things that I was having issues with before, and...

Heyo, here's a few WIP pics from the intro sequence of the Brig animation. The intro is fully animated, timed, and camera cut. Save for the dialogue and a bit of polish, it should be good to go and I can now focus full on the expansion sequence. Surprisingly, the expansion sequence is the more straightforward part, and I can use reuse more anima...

Well, I think it's time that I tell you all that I'm considering switching from 3D to 2D animation. Sure I've learned a lot from Blender, but I think my true potential is unlocked through Microsoft Paint. As you can clearly see from the two styles, I think Brig's story is far better told in a 2D stylized format, and I need an excuse to use a Pre...

For those who haven't seen the WIPs, I've been getting a lot of work done on the Brigitte animation, and I'm looking to finish it this month and get commissions back up and running. March was a good way to get back in the swing of things, and I'm looking to keep that momentum this month. I'm planning on c...

After three days of mosquito bites, turgid swamps, and constant rain, you came across a wellspring deep in the heart of the Amazon. Breathing a sign of relief, you move to fill your canteen, and suddenly freeze. You're not alone. A giantess lounges at the water's edge, the spring more similar to a kiddie pool compared to her size. Droplets s...

Hey guys! Most of my time this week has been focused on getting the Brig animation in a more stable state, and I'm happy to say that the intro is pretty much done, and the animation is (for the most part) timed out! It's looking to be in the 2-3 minute range, but with dialogue, looping, camera shifts, etc, the final time will probably vary. With...

Hey guys, I've been putting a lot of time into the Brig animation, and it's definitely coming together! Still a good amount of work to do, but I'm happy with how it's turning out and I can't wait until I have more to show you! Work is still being done on the Pharah hot spring, but it's taken a backseat this week to give me more time to focus on ...

Streetfighter used to mean that fighters would fight in the streets, but when your opponent's feet are large enough to block traffic on both sides, it makes sense to find a larger area. Unfortunately, Courtyardfighter and Airstripfighter don't have the same ring.
Here's the second Patreon Pin-Up for March, suggested by
Maybe next time, Ana should use her nano-boost OUTSIDE the dropship. Either that or use the cargo bay.
So this month's Pin-Up Poll ended in a tie vote, and with me being super indecisive, I figured I'd just make them both! This first Pin-Up was a combination suggestion between Johntae Weaver and Limp...

Hey all!
Quick update this time, I've gotten more work done on both main animations, and I'm about halfway through the Patreon pin-up poll. The current plan is to get the growth sequence finished for the Brig animation and then look into a more involved lead-up, possibly with voice actors (big IF, but would be great if it works out). The p...

Here's a quick update on the projects I'm working on. I've gotten a lot more work done on the Brig animation, and things are looking good so far. The main loops are pretty much done, and I'm getting timing set for the lead-up and intermediate shots. I want to make the animation seem as natural as possible, so I've been trying diff...
