3D application in game with Emma (Patreon)
Content
Alright, so this is a real image from the upcoming game update.
I know people will prefer 2D, but what do you think?
I sculpted the shirt, and the bottom was an asset I edited. I also sculpted the plate haha!
I let you see the raw 3D render including the 2D filter so you can understand how it works for me.
I make the render and then draw over it.
The longest part is the character creation but once it's done, the posing take just a few minutes, the rendering is 1 minute, and then the drawing is around 20 min. I think if I'd do it from scratch (except the BG) it would take more than 2 hours, maybe 3.
I could also use it for scenes that would've take me like 5 hours for a 10 sentence dialogue, I now feel less limited to the scenes and visuals.
In "drawing from scratch" mode, I have to make a scene that "I can draw" without wasting too much energy, so I tend to make people not move or zoomed camera to hide elements too much energy demanding.
Honestly I like the result and I don't think it's "too much" changing, but maybe I'm biased, idk. Ngl it was a lot easier, physically, to work like this.
Things to take into consideration:
- People often compare with the best art of Emma, but don't forget there is also ugly failures of her.
- After I finish crafting all 3D models (I wait to finish Emma's update before starting sculpting Berry and Sarena) if people accept this kind of art, I might come back to a monthly update, I mean considering the reduction of time I could be able to reach 1 update per month again. As a creator, I miss that, I don't feel good when I do a month without content.
If people really don't like it I'd maybe do less but I won't abandon it, it make my creator life much more easier.
- I'm not replacing the past content, past base posing, with 3D. This new process is to move forward.
Concerning animations:
I'm not doing 3D animations, because when it moves it's "too much" 3D so it's too much changing, I'm gonna keep 2D animation for the whole game of CwG.
I really hope you'll like it, because I personally like it. But don't lie to me just for my ego x)
