Drawn a year apart. Weird. #miraculous #ladybug

Watching this old gem of an anime again #tokyomewmew

[sodapop-exe]

Although old, and my animation ability has improved, I'm still proud of it's narrative intent and the atmosphere it creates. Thanks to Clare Fogarty for creating the gorgeous music

I’m so surprised how many ideas of mine got through to the final game... I guess that’s uh good?

Made the concept for the title screen (the blimp/ship thing flies past in the background and the little cog appears on the button you’re selecting and spins) and made the buttons. Matt Duan did the set up and coding and drew the cog and Leslie Luc drew the ship that I designed

Dorky concepts for Grapple Rush

[sodapop-exe]

Some of my favourite animations from my game Grapple Rush last year. I’ve learnt so much since then but I’m still proud of these. Hopefully I can one day rework them and see the progress!

Sprite eyeballs on Stocking! Using a similar method to what Twilight Princess used and I love it

Learning how to sculpt in Zbrush and looking at a lot of reference from disney 

... This started off really, really scary... maybe when I finish it, I’ll post the scariness.... but also maybe not

[sodapop-exe]

Almost done! Just need to fix the textures, so I can rig and animate her

Progress on my character Shii

[sodapop-exe]

Screen mock up test, mainly to see what the ponytail would look like. This was just drawn over a game screen shot.

Texturing with @justinedi

I did clothes, skin and face, @justinedi did eyeballs, hat and hair.

Hopefully soon we’ll have a fiery physics ponytail.

Modeling and animating a black hole. Experimenting with colours

Game and environment concept art. Still trying to figure out what everything will look like.

The bottom picture is of a town clustered around a floating globule of water (which they are tethered to with rope and stuff) in space. Inside the water there is something... that attracts the water and it also shines, so the town uses it as their light source.

More character concept art.

We’re going with the second pictures clothes (because they look more like a postie/delivery person) but we’re still not sure on the colours.

Concept sketches of character. Not using this character, but keeping this general dorky/lazy personality
