December - Sweden

Happy Yuletide everyone!

I'm preparing to fly to Stockholm this weekend and I'll be spending Monday in meetings with a very exciting project that I've made mentions of before. I'm itching to ...

Moo-moo

We play fetch with Gracie to break up the groundwork sessions. She has her moments when she gets a bit too excited or bargy which occasionally results in a little buck and a fart gallop around the ...

Little Ratters

This last week has been a right bin fire. I needed some character therapy from all the shattered car parts.

Baby girls -and- boys, up to 4-8 years old, all wore dresses in the 19th century. T...

Shy boy - Miikka

 

During our investigative journey to the world of Unity and Blender, I thought I'd test how Veeti's personality would translate to a little animation.

Overall I was pretty happy w...

Roskva

Jáhko's mum.


I've really, really struggled with anxiety recently and I haven't really got an outlet to talk about it and I fear putting people off if I was to bring it up. I've st...

Harmo the horse - Blender

Apologies for the image heavy post but I figured this was the best way to share progress of this guy. This is not the entire progress because I lost some of it from months ago, but I ended up retop...

Run deer

We've not shared much of what the demo actually looks and feels like because everything is still under works, but here's a little snippet for the archive!

Woodcarver shoved into a hill as a r...

Character controller

I've finally sorted the issue that I have been banging my head against a wall over, which involved a character controller and its camera. The deer boy and Jahko can both now be moved with either ke...

Run

The gif is huge but I have no way of resizing it at the moment. Running boy!

Fawn

And his little spiky tail and legs. I've made slight amendments to the mesh and here's the textured version. He's not finished but getting there.

I love his little cloven hooves and asymmetri...

Jaakko's day

Miikka here!
We finally finished the mini-chapter that will be uploaded tomorrow on Year In Hereafter's website. Drawn by me, but coloured (and co-written) by Elli. Didn't Elli do a fantastic jo...

Oh deer

You've seen the boys so far and we've made progress with the rat and player controllers.

I designed this little dude and Miikka made the mesh for him. I've been rigging and weight painting hi...

Character rigs

Oh look how clever they are.

Very much still a WIP as we're missing their cloth textures and bunch of the maps still need adjusted but, it's been a lot of fun (and rage) working on these two....

Crooked birch

Remember the tree from Small Trolls? This is it in Unity.

I mentioned previously that I've been learning to 3D 'stuff' to go alongside the big project I'm working on and Miikka's been teachin...

Rat

Ok I'm literally just trying to come up with something I can actually share with you all because I'm so wrapped up with this big project. I've considered changing the way the Rat appears in the com...

Wild gods

I've got so many of these type of sketches stored away that I've dared not show. Including their human masquerades. 

I love Sotka's dumb little peacock-like form, it's so fun to draw. Ca...

August

I feel quite awful about not being able to share much at the moment. I'm spending a huge amount of time on a project that I'm hoping I can start discussing in the near future. Apologies for the lac...

Mrs. Hook

Matron and owner of The Anchor. You'll meet her in the next scene along with some new urchins.

"She is brandishing a saucepan and resembles a vengeful god."

With text! ♥ Finally done.

The Anchor - stables

The street looks much cleaner in this than it'll end up being in the comic. Needs more grub and clutter. We've decided to go with the below layouts after more revision.

Bounce

Considering combining the Tistow and Tistow WIP tags to make room for a Horsey tag (Patreon only allows 5 at once on the profile). Not sure if that'd make it more confusing. Babies though! Baby hos...

Odie 2 signing

The covers are finally in Miikka's hands. ♥ I've already signed them and they made it safely to Finland. Can't wait to see them bound!

Walking on to something wee bit more cheerful. Keep having to remind myself how to draw Alfie's boat and keep it consistent ff.
