#valiard mansion

Hey, guys! Ezelle here! :)

I’ve just returned from America where I worked on-site with Golden Bell on all things Valiard for 3 months.

There we began shading and compositing shots for the Animated Trailer, and it’s looking amazing!

What I’m sharing with you here aren’t even the finished shots. Layers of effects and other fixes will still be added. Some effects shots have already come through and I’m not allowed to share them yet, but I can tell you they absolutely blew me away. 

Soon we’ll begin posting actual clips from the Trailer, as well as making-of snippets for those of you interested in the animation process.

Please keep an eye out for more updates. Production often means keeping lots of secrets — but there are SO MANY exciting things that I’ll soon be allowed to share with you guys!

The Valiard Mansion is an illustrated novel soon to be published by Polar Press. The Animated Trailer for the novel is produced by Golden Bell Studios. CLICK HERE to visit their website.

Does anyone know what happened to the Valiard Mansion? It was this story that I think was going to be animated with like the old Disney style(think the little mermaid) but it wasn't an actual Disney thing.

Like I remembered seeing it everywhere for a while and then it just stopped and I promptly forgot about it. I came across a sketch from it on Pinterest last night and couldn't for the life of me find anything more recent than from 2021. Did it die? There were no updates from the official accounts on ANY platform, even the account here stopped posting around 2018. I'm so curious if anyone knows.

I also can't be the only one who remembers this project, I mean it looked really promising.

Spent the weekend practicing faces, and one of them accidentally became Theodore! Woops. I've been meaning to do Valiard Mansion fanart for a while so two birds, one stone I guess! Next time I'll be sure to use references, though (I had no internet access so this was done off the top of my head).

For those of you who don't know, 'the Valiard Mansion' is a beautifully written original story by artoftheez, with many loveable characters. :) Hop over to her deviantArt or tumblr to check it out, there are 10 great chapters waiting for you...!

Teenagers Ruth and Theodore just having a chat as Theodore draws. I wonder if he's trying to do a portrait of Ruth? :3

I realise I owe you guys some new art, but I've been on break. So I did some digging and found out I hadn't posted these here yet. ^_^
