Scary

"And then he checks the folder but files are all gone!!!"

I am gonna post this to community with that caption tomorrow because scary month. Will I be able to bring back Monster type stuff as ...

Good Morning 1959

Let's have a pretentious presentation for a change! 

I was inspired by Yasujiro Ozu "Good Morning" in how they filmed actors keeping an eye contact with the camera while acting out talki...

Learning 2

Around two years ago I posted a gif of Jonny Joestar sketch animation (2nd slide) with a long text talking about how I aim to achieve a more human fluidity after rewatching Howl's Moving Castle. I ...

J&P 'PUCK' rework

NOW you might look on the left and think 'huh, well you clearly still have the earlier version of this shot so why rework it?'. Well, you see this huge red ALLINALL watermark on it. Yeah. 

Another skybox

Like that it doesn't look like skies at all rather like some creepy artsy painting. Something from Rohan Goes to Louvre!

It can vary depending on your screen's brightness. 

Tinker Bell

This is for one of the sequences I had to start rebuilding from scratch. So, I changed the concept completely in favor of a more traditionally fluid, Tinkerbell-ish Puck! 

Big secret is ...

DRAKA 3 'WHY' rework

I reworked a shot I haven't lost but wanted to improve for a while now. So, I used the opportunity. Now to rebuild what I have actually lost! New ornithopter-inspired wings by Uluncha and I also in...

SHIN DRAGONSLAYER!

One of the assets I lost was my recent Dragonslayer (more commonly known as the Rail With a Handle) sword shader. Although there are shots where the sword is 2D and stylized I needed a more detaile...

Ignore the weird titling!

PINK=redo from scratch. 

ORANGE=Camera work in the burning forest for the missing backgrounds (the forest itself is burning but SAFE and backed).

RED=restore my awesome Dragonslaye...

Bad News!

Short version: Internal SSD lagged out and cleared my Blender folder thus setting my Berserk animation back. Now I am doing a belated backup of everything that I still have and plan to rebuilding t...

TRAILER!

Ok, last 10 days of the month. Let's go!

Maybe far away 🎵

Slide for the reference paintings I used for color.

Initially I thought of this one in manga's black & white but childhood flashbacks are in color and the fully greyscale flashback is ver...

Clouds!

WizardsOnly is asleep - post illegal clouds.

Don't forget to slide! We are so close to the end.

PFPs

Even though LC2 is delayed (hopefully not much longer than two weeks into September) here are the new tier patron pfp-sized portraits that are gonna be in the credits. I approached it somewhat free...

The hills are alive

Slide to see the still from the colored scene this animation is used in!

Got to fine tune some shots and revive the enjoyment of the process after I chose to slow down a bit. This however doe...

背景

I actually prefer the black nothingness as a background for the colored version of this scene I have already. But I liked my attempt at recreating the geographically (they flew all the way to some ...

Delay delay

It once again looks like I need to delay Lost Children 2. I will still be working hard to try and push it as far as I can in the remaining days of this month and perhaps a miracle will occur!

Good Morning

This is the clean contour for a long scene inspired by 'Good Morning!' the first color film by Yasujiro Ozu. Specifically, by how they would film actors speaking into the camera while actors had to...

Guts Hand Cannon SFX

A sound design day. I generally treat foley work as something less time consuming than animation but sometimes it exceeds my time expectations, so I like having breaks between drawing and adding so...

バイバイ

Finally, recolored the post-credits scene from the first Fairytale to match the apostle colors of part 2. THIS might actually be our thumbnail. Romantic! 

I've lost an old feline friend ...

*Maniacal laughter*

Still very satisfied with the 3D/2D forest fire setting I made last year for this one. Just a little update so that you know I am doing.

"You Wouldn't Remember"

We will say that this color scheme is to transition into a very 1997-colors flashback and not something cool looking I settled on even tho it might end up breaking the color consistency.

Than...

"Disappear!"

Wanted to share something in color for a change! Thank you again for financing this operation.

Puck is sitting on this cyan-ish behelith (egg of kings) on the back of my copy of volume 16. Bu...

Pre-2023-Trailer-Last-Scene-Scene

This animation has a lot of facial expressions exploration. 

Mid-month and I am almost done with sketching the remaining scenes but will I be able to color it all, add sfx, ask Atlas to ...

Dawn

Only yesterday I noticed that in the manga Guts emerges from the water and not burnt grass pile! Which should've been obvious considering there is a panel of something heavy dropping in the lake wh...

"I dreamt of a wave

washing over me."

Going through the selected frame heavy scenes and fixing the color schemes meanwhile sketching what are supposed to be simpler shots. Experimenting with production logistics...

WizardsOnly

Thank you for financing this operation!

There is a scene in the distant THLMR finale that WIzardsOnly came up with himself. And while I am busy finishing LC2 and preparing to Doon next, the m...

Update sketch pack!

Sketching and figuring out remaining shots starting with those I deem most difficult. Still aiming for before the end of July! Civil War won't get in the way of berking.

Soundtrack preview

Aaron James on guitar, Emma Caterinicchio on cello, Nora as Guts, Misty as Rosine.

This is the final air clash piece (I might remix and reuse certain parts for different scenes later).

A flash of memory

Shichiro Kobayashi style 3D/2D environment for a short scene I came up with last year and now finally adding it to the Lost Children 2. The first tent didn't have to be a 3D object really, but I wa...
