Art bundle + storyboard wips

Hi! Been finishing up more oc art and almost all frames of the rough draft of the MAP call storyboard (will be shown as a video wip with audio in 2 days!)

I've been drawing my monkey oc a bunch (also catified him because of course I would) and I'm super proud of the icon and that I was able to render it like I usually do! These sort of bouncy icons are quite easy to make so I could def do a small showcase sometime c:

The anthro in a skirt was an avian commission, I finally drew...

Speedpaint (YCH art+ icons)

A mix of recent works with the kitty-cat-cat meme in the latter half!!

Art bundle + MAP/animation wips

Happy to have a bigger heap of art to show you guys!
Me and my friends have all jumped on the bandwagon of making monkey OC's and my boy is all I wanna draw rn so here is his ref, chibi and animated icon wip, he gets special treatment for being so much easier to animate than cats!!

I have also started on the little Crowpaw ref specifically made for the upcoming patreon hosted MAP (with the gifs being super rough parts of the first storyboard draft!)

Other art includes an ic...

Shaped cats - art bases

Since I missed out on making a base last month I hope 4 makes up for it :,D! I wanted to make a bit more varied body shapes and types to bring more opportunity for diverse designs! Also did 2 adopts with them from ideas I've wanted to make for a long time, theyll be up for art offers on toyhou.se in a day or two!

It's tricky making distinct shapes that still feel like blank slates for each designer to work around (hence why most of my bases are very "basic" and standard), but I hope the...

Art/OC art bundle

Hellooo I arrive with another bundle of art! It's tricky balancing continous posting with work I can't show but I do hope to get started on the upcoming MAP call the patron discord server voted for soon! c:

In the meantime here is finally Magpiewing's timeline (quite happy with it since age's + character consistency is such a challenge combined!). I also drew her original design I got from Doornaud before I changed it up to her present design! def want to draw her more; her floppy ear ...

AMV shot breakdown/inbetweening showcase

Hi! I haven't forgotten all the extra content I promised to do about the AMV >:3! Here are a few of the shorter shots broken down in a bit of a different way than what I usually do!

It took a while to edit but I tried my best to show visually how the timing and inbetweening is laid out and what order it's done in :) It might move a bit fast or feel hard do understand but I do encourage to pause and try and distinguish the keys, their timing and how the evenly filled in inbetweens smo...

Art bundle

Finally caught up with more of the toyhou.se raflle prizes + avian commissions &  sketch rewards and finally the rest of the YCH pieces in better res!! Super happy I got to draw a Corgi for one of the prizes C:

Complete YCH meme - Kitty-cat-cat

Focused all my time into finishing this ASAP so not to force myself to balance too many projects at once & letting all the commissioners get to see the vid closely timed with the finished drawings they'ce received!

I'm so thrilled to present this super fun project with so many pretty cat ocs and I'm glad to be able to move on from the unfinished storyboard and complete the meme idea<3! I challenged myself to more After effect editing as well and I'm very happy with it! I doubt I...

Big art bundle

Been finishing up a few of the YCH slots and the majority of Avian sketch rewards :D Many lovely ocs to draw! Also included the higher res art of the Night dancer meme<33 Happy weekend!

Night dancer meme + speedpaint

Youtube upload here!

The end of the speedpaint shows the final thing without watermark + the lineart version! Super happy with how they turned out despite it ofc taking 10 times longer to make than anticipated!

 I used gradient maps to help pick colors as I personally really struggle with vibrant and contrasting pallets;  especially swearing off from using standard reference colors! If any...

(sketch update) - CLOSED YCH meme - kitty cat cat

 Edit : All slots have been sold, thank you so so very much!

Instead of making a new post I just updated the og video with sketches that fit with respective character! Gonna stream and record speedpaints for these this week c:!!

--------------

This 1+ year old storyboard finally turned into a project that'll be completed! My first and most likely only ych at least in some time!

Wips/sketches

Many fun projects!

First is Windchime's chibi, second is a concept for Moonpaw/Dewdrop's mom 8realised I will need a design for her for a project huhu), lots of YCH meme wips of sold /magpiewing slots (avians have claimed abt half and inclaimed slots will be available on the 3rd with more info!)

4th slide are base wips!! Since I missed last month I'm doing 4 of them where Im playing around with more unique shapes in hopes people will find some use for varied typed!

Lastl...

New OC ref + art

Last art bundle of April! The recent animatic + Mystery skulls animated has taken up a bit of my time but I finished drawing this adopted design i got of Windchime (just missing a chibi to decor his page with!)

Then we have a gift for Turrkoise where I wanted to practise making a sliightly more complex tweening animation (compared to the AMV shot) with after effects. Once I get better at it & figure out how to make them into transparent gifs I might consider simplistic tweened comm...

Finished Animatic - Clouds Of Pompeii

Edit: Reuploaded with a fixed frames!

Been sat all day finishing this one as I have been determined to make it an early previews by more than one day >:) It will be public on saturday!

I really like how it turned out and as always I went way overboard with details and rendering when it was supposed to be a quick sketch!

Many projects to come with side-stories like these will be animatics to make things manageable! I hope you enjoy<3

Description/thumbnail wil...

Animatic wips + art & sketches

Got surprisingly many frames done today for the upcoming animatic (of course ended up going way more detailed/rendered than anticipated)!

I also had a blast drawing more add-on art of the recent Sickleclaw adopt design that was auctioned. Then we have a ref sheet wip + doodles of a new oc Windchime (Magpiewing's older cousin!), more art such as gifts, traditonal oc sketches and finally the finished lineart of Magpiewing for the Night Dancer meme c: Spending way too many hours cleaning ...

Speedpaint April

7 recent artpieces >:) The sona chibis were done on procreate and the rest on ClipStudioPaint!

FINISHED AMV! You're Gonna Go Far Kid

WOO IT'S HERE!!! Over 4 months of work blasting through in a minute but goodness it's so rewarding to see it all completed! And I'm thrilled that the hardest and most important shot to create turned out the best in my opinion! VERY VERY HAPPY WITH IT AND I HOPE YOU'LL ENJOY SEEING IT TOO<333 It's become my proudest and biggest project in my life and most of my enjoyment ´making it wouldn't be the same without the chance to share it with you!

Because the premier keeps the yt upload ...

Night dancer mini meme wip

I came across this trend on IG and I thought It'd be a fun way to practise anthro art and have a lil fun time drawing my sonas!! Took photos of myself for refs which also was an experience to say the least

Despite social medias gettin me tired of this song it's also such a summer vibe and I love itttt

3D camera + Parallaxing - After effects/Hitfilm tutorial!

This vid is a bit longer as it's a combo of me working live but also doing a walkthrough/tutorial so the latter bit can easily be skipped as I mostly tweak details (but I do still mention lil tips and explain why I make certain edits & decisions so it can still be worhtwhile to some hence why I didn't time skip!)

I really wanted to get tutorial up first as once I showcase and do tutorial setups with more complex shots it'll hopefully be easier to understand c:

AMV shots + adopts/designs

Sicleclaw, Periwinklenose & Applearoma will be up for offers on toyhou.se the next upcoming days<3 Thistlemist was designed for my irl bestie heavily based of their own cats, eyes and even hair tufts >:)

I only have the 2 big animated fight scenes left to edit and figure out the bgs for now I'm super duper hyped! If they don't end up too compliacted the AMV might be ready to premier this weekend :O!!! I managed to find a comic ook styled font and although it looks a lil bit s...

Animatic wip 1 - Jackdawgale & Talontail - Clouds of Pompeii

I'm still focusing mostly on the AMV but I also wish to show you guys something new and fresh in the meantime storywise so here is the most talon/jackdaw focused lore vid I'll probably ever get around to make! I really want this done before starting on the blood snow arc (where Ashkit's parents, Coalclaw & Shadowfern are lost)

It features their late mother Nightfall who died giving birth to Jackdawkit, and a heartbroken Coalclaw who has to care for their kits on his own. Talontail ...
