Update!

Sorry I haven't been able to upload the animation breakdown for Bernadette! January has been busy, yes, but the reason I haven't been able to record is because I've been pretty sick the past few weeks - and my voice is barley holding on. As soon as I'm able to talk without coughing or sounding like something out of The Lord of the Rings, I'll get right on it!

Harlow Concept Art!

Artwork by Mollish based on the book description of Harlow! During writing, I sent a lot of content out to this artist as a way of seeing how well the writing captures the look! As you can see, the results speak for themselves! Most of these concepts were not posted anywhere... until now!

Unused Renders For Lucy (Young & Mature)

These were made to measure the difference in body mass for Lucy Lacemaker. As a young Fowler, she is no taller than 1 foot. However, when matured, she stands at 3.6 feet. She also holds a lot more muscle and weight.

Locket Illustration Tests

Still working on the Winifred model breakdown - but here are some Locket illustration tests we did! This is where me and Carmen got the style perfect, I think! These do not feature in the book, but I still really like them! It's just the right mix of realism and style!

Lucy Drops Her Head

This was a quick test I made for the Lucy Animation Test in 2022. The original idea was to have each version of Lucy behead the last. In the end, I decided not to use this, instead opting to have all the Lucys join the party! If you can believe it, this is my first ever animation of a head getting cut off, if memory serves. I'm happy with the test overall!
The position Lucy falls into is called the 'backward bow' in the book, which is essentially being folded back while kneeling. Always thought it looked cool!

Ludwig Fell Over.

Enjoy.

Lucy Stills From The Book Trailer!

Here are some stills from the book trailer! Each are 3D renders of the Lucy model, which were then sketched over by Carmen! These transparent images were then animated in blender within a 3D scene! 
(Yes, she does wear clothing in the book... sometimes...)

First Helgan Hair Test

Choosing to make Helgan take after a snake proved to be one of the biggest challenges in all me years of animation. Firstly, there was the hair. It needed match her style and do the job her tail used to: that is, to cover her tits. This was... a process.

Celia's First Hair Test!

Took me years to get this working. Finally, in 2020, Blender became powerful enough to manage hair collision!
