"Ass"ets, get it?
Yeah. super intricate pun, I know.
ANYWHO, as promised, here's the preemptive group of assets prepared for Lala's Microgame.
You may notice some slight inconsistencies, like the lack of a shadow beneath her body, but that's intentional. If she is going to be moving, I need to make the shadow mobile as well, and that's gotta be done through After Effects, so ...
Hopefuly.
The preparations for the Lala animated micro-H game are running up smoothly, and the base finished assets should be ready by tomorrow. At least the initial set.
The variations on the set will take slightly longer, but I want to see if I can get the basics done by tomorrow as to show the static image in full color for all of you, so you get an idea of how it will look like o...
Welp... Just a lil' something so you can keep your mouth watered till the full animation comes out...
... Tell me it's not worth the wait.
Fate out!!

I'll have her sketch ready and up by tomorrow.
Stay tuned!
2018-07-17 05:49:11 +0000 UTC View PostShort version: I was totally cut off from the internet for five days. Just got my connection back now. All I was able to do was work on the Original Sin's game script (the narration, not the code) and play NieR Automata until my brain hurt. Sorry for the massive delay, I'll get back to working as intended on the QSW Finale winner now that I can actually check the fucking ...

So yeah, this one was interesting... I mean, at first I intended to just make it a quick sketch in one day (as the challenge kinda demanded), but when the sketch was done, I didn't like how it looked... So I reworked it a tad, then... Added a stripper pole (because of course I did), then I began to make it more... sleazy-ish... Then I realized that I'd...

Granted, it's far from what I would have liked. I'm pretty sure I could have done much better with this one had I got the time... But that's not the point of the challenge. I NEED to improve my speed a bit, so I can only work within a single day. I gotta stop before I run out of time and mo...

And coming down the pipes, we got our next model all cooked and southern-belle-ish!
Boy, do I always squirm when it's time to work on Aika of all people... I really have an issue of not being able to settle on a particular hairstyle for her. Luckily, I think I'm straddling a relatively coherent line between her older style and her newer, more punkish look, but the angle in question her...

Whew, and here we go, we got ourselves a full-body sketch model for Aika's sprite... The tallest, most southernbelle-st tattoed administrative right hand of the group (She also stirs some mean Martini).
What do you think?
Now! Moving onto colouring! To ADVENTURE!
Fate out!!
2018-06-08 00:24:56 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for going silent for a day or two there, guys... I just was sick as fuck xD I tried to start drawing Aika's model and realized I had built up a nasty fever, so I had to take a few days off not to die, y'know?
Anyways, now I'm mostly recovered, so I'll get to it right away!
Cheers!
And BOOM! Here we go!
Second model for the Original Sin VN Project in full caramel-y color of everyone's favourite, gun-totting, short-fused, bodiliciously nose-punching gunslinger... Leona!

2018-05-28 05:46:35 +0000 UTC View PostJust a little update, guys: I'm still alive and working.
As you know by now, I'm working on a VN project with the Original Sin cast, and I just don't want to half-ass the character sprites, so it's taking some time (modifying parts of an already made model actually takes more time than working on a new one from scratch)
Leona's model should be ready in 1 or 2 days tops, so it'...

Alright! Moving onto our next Original Sin cast member, here we got a wild Leona in her natural habitat... Which is basically chewing gum, kicking ass and being an all-around guntotting, nose-breaking hottie :D
We'll see how color brings her to life soon... I love me some badass ganguro gals, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Well well, considering how much of a push the whole "short VN project" about the characters of The Original Sin got in the polls (both the public one and especially the Patreon one), I decided that, independant of it being a thing or not (I'm still testing the waters to see if that would be something that most people would find interesting), I could try my hand at making the characters' cost...

There are three main possibilities (as showcased by the options in this poll), and each one of them comes with it's own package of pros and cons (It's mainly an issue of more effort = slower production, while quicker alternatives = less substance).
However, I de...
