Mishu's New 'Do

I could go on for hours about all the problems long hair causes in animation. Now, just making long hair that looks nice isn't terribly difficult, but making long hair that's animation ready, that'...

Model Making Tutorial - Pt. 1!

See attached! I've finally gotten around to experimenting with turning those model making streams into a tutorial... thing. Of sorts. Tutorial feels like too strong a word maybe. Walkthrough, maybe...

So, what's Ru been up to lately, anyway?

(TL;DR - just skip to the bottom you'll see it, though it might take a bit to load)

Much like with the painting, I asked for feel good suggestions this month, let's see what they came up with! I also gently prodded them that suggestions involving the new Raccoon were encouraged, i...

Monthly Painting - Vote!

It's voting time! Since I'm in the middle of making a fairly mean comic, I decided to ask the suggestion people for some feel-good ideas to counterbalance the darkness with some good friendly fun. ...

October Painting - Vote!

A surprisingly low amount of spooky ideas for spooky month, perhaps the suggestors just weren't feeling it? Will be interesting to see what the voters do with it!

Updated Doe Model!

I'm in the middle of working on a decent sized project, but had to take a few days off while waiting for replies for stuff to come through, and found myself fiddling with an old model. I always lik...
