Mystique - Animation set (Patreon)
Content
MEGA LINK - *update* dsm version added.
This was supposed to come out 4-5 hours earlier, but I fell asleep lol, sorry. Plus the stupid fucking Adobe Premiere froze on me like 10 times and during the exporting process too, like it froze on 60-70% a few times and I had to start over.
Reason why I chose Mystique over the other 2 options:
Monster Hunter models are really awkward after they are ripped from the game, all of the bones in the armature point upwards 90 degrees and that's really not great for animation purposes. I'd have to fix each bone manually and that's really tedious, so I've decided to postpone it until later.
I worked on Mai from Blazblue a little bit, I made her hairstyle, it looks okay-ish, but she would still require quite a bit of work to get ready for the animation.
I also have been into blue skin tones recently lol, that dark s*m*s alt made something click inside me, lmao. Any other blue skinned character you guys know? Besides Hsien-ko and Squigly from Skullgirls.
For positions, I went mostly with safe ones, except the stand and carry one, that one is still very tricky for me, how did I do?
I forgot to put lipstick smear on the face again, dammit.
Let me know what you think.
How's the audio? I haven't used this VA's voice pack in a long time, mostly because the oral sounds she has aren't my cup of tea. But I still used them here.
If you think that the voice here is really bad, I maybe could try commissioning a voiceover. Would that be a good idea?
Is the volume ok? I am still not sure how to balance it properly.
What's your opinion on the music here? It's from X-men Legends 2. Would you guys be ok with it if I used more "upbeat" music, like something used during combat in games and stuff?
How's the lighting here? I wasn't really sure what to do. It's also a bit inconsistent between the positions.
Next is Mai Shiranui's animation set.
Though first I am going to switch out my power supply.
I recently had a dream where my pc fried and I lost all my stuff, lol.
My current psu is ~7 years old now = pretty old, though it's a really good seasonic one, it still works quite well. It was around the time MGSV came out when I bought it. It makes a lot sense to change it now.
Before I do though, I'll back everything up, just in case. I still have painful memories of the time I lost my stuff, when my hard drive died :(
