Finished up her Ultimate Attack, I'm going to upload a compilation of animation from this year that hasn't been uploaded yet at some point,  next week I'm going to announce something else, and hopefully I can start Jade's trailer before going back to college.

Hello Everyone!

So for this update, I’ve finished Jade’s Ultimate Attack again, after doing some revisions to it.  I tweaked up the timing of the attacks, added more detail to her final strike, tweaked some impact frames, added a KO graphic, fixed some sound design issues, and fixed up Jade’s sword texture!  

I’m gonna be uploading a compilation of all the animation that hasn’t been posted on my channel as a wrap-up to this summer so be on the lookout for that.

Next week I’m going to be announcing something that will be very important to the future of this project, so I need to prepare for that.

Finally, I’m going to do my best to get started on Jade’s trailer production before I go back to college.  It all depends on the personal work that I’m doing and getting that done.

All Models were modeled, textured, rigged, and posed/animated by me.

Hello Everyone!

https://sta.sh/21ndmacv0a0o

So here’s a current version on Amy and Diamond’s Play of the Game Animation!  Once I finish these two I will begin working on Emerick’s POTG.  I fixed up Diamond’s jump to be more of a corkscrew.

I’m also working on concept art for the monsters that will be in Jade’s trailer, hopefully the drawings will be done by today so I can have a better reference of what I’ll be modeling, so I can take care of that base and the monsters themselves.  My goal is to have Animation beginning by Monday next week!

Along with that I’ve begun working on Jade’s Outline, the first draft of that should be done by today, if not tomorrow, then I’ll begin fixing it up to hopefully write the actual script throughout August.

I’ve also began Skinning Jade’s Rig in Maya, damn that sounds disgusting, and I’ll finish that up tomorrow, just need to finish up the Geometry for the Flannel, and Hands, then I’ll add her blend shape rigs and start doing some poses and animation in Maya for testing purposes.

Finally, I’ve rigged all of Jade’s outfits that were from AnonymousBlank’s Commission (https://www.deviantart.com/anonymousblank/art/OC-Outfit-Commission-JADE-754594810), and did one more image of her looking like Thor to test out proper matting of lightning in clouds.

Did some small tweaks, and have a side-by-side from about a year ago.

Hello everyone!  

So I’m finally back home and getting to work on stuff.  I’ve sadly only been able to add in the insert shot of Jade’s Weapon transforming, but I will be moving onto Shot 7 tonight.

My goal for this current animation is to complete the first round of the 12 shots that I have planned for it by next week, then be completed with the animation by the end of next week!

After this animation is completed I will begin the secret project I mentioned slightly a few weeks ago.  When the current animation is completed I will announce what that’ll be.

Also, here’s a fun side by side showing off what my stuff looked like before and after my first year of college!

WIP on a current animation, going to be finishing up shots 4&5 tonight and maybe block out 6.

Hello Everyone!

So for this update I have the first 3 shots of the animation I’m working on.  Sadly there aren’t any effects on it, so this is essentially my poser document that’s been edited to the desired look.  Any and all critique is appreciated as my skills may be a tad bit more rusty since I’ve been animating off and on every now and then this quarter.

I should also brief you all on my plans for this summer.

So this summer I will be filling most of my time with preparing for next quarter (fall), or JADE.

For my school I need to get used to working in Maya for Lighting, Texturing, Modeling, Rigging (To get ahead), and rendering before I begin taking an ANIM250 course (Digital Space, Form and Lighting).

As for JADE related topics I want to spend most of the summer on a project to get this series officially kicked off, more about that will be revealed as planning is being completed.

Some other things I wish to complete this summer include:

-A full script for “Jade”

-A Outlined script for “Amethyst”

-Planned scripts for “Diamond” and “Emerald”

-Structure and Planning for “JADE” underway

-Remodeling of the characters (To be Maya rigging friendly)

-Complete Team JADE Maya Rigs

These are some major areas that I want to hit this summer, and there will likely be more things to come!

Did another Animation, and some drawings (Some from School) can I get critique on anything you'd like?  https://sta.sh/2fzpei4nkor

Hi Everyone!

So this weeks challenge in the Discord was to repeat a previous challenge, and I have sadly been slacking on the challenges and decided to repeat the previous one, with Jade.  Here’s what I have so far.  A lot of polish is still required, but as usual any and all critique is appreciated!

I’m also trying to improve at drawing, so here’s a quick art dump with some projects I’ve submitted this quarter for my Drawing 101 Class.  Next Quarter I”m getting into my first ever Animation Class, and Life Drawing, my hype is unbeatable right now I’m so pumped!  I would love critique on the Jade “Noodle Torso” Doodle I did last night primarily because I need to get as many resources to improve for that area specifically as drawing characters has been my greatest weakness.  

Sadly, I was hit pretty hard by projects this weekend so I was unable to do a lot of work, but I will hopefully be back with more work by friday!

Swords, Grimm, and light falloff for days.

Hey Everyone!

-So as of now, everybody who has currently volunteered to be an extra should have received their lines, and should try to aim to send the lines to me by February 1st.

-As for Production Updates, I am just waiting on final critique for the script to make final changes to, then I will send out lines to the voice actors, and begin animation.

-This test is just me experimenting with poses to see if I can get a good dynamic pose.
