MAP outro wip/color keys

Unplanned outro idea because the melody ended up super long & I realized It'd be cool to have them say farewell too. During discord streaming I also realized this is depicts the last time they ever hang out like this before things starts going baD and I cry a little inside,,

I'll be working through this fully myself which is gonna be a challenge but I am so so excited to get to dive into a more in depth animated sequence with a lot of acting & bg practise!! The second shot is a...

Art bundle

Gifts, requests and commissions from late march up until now C:! The first 2 were sketched n procreate for the first time in forever and I've also got a few more sketches started on the bug adopt AB rewards!

Been trying my best to finish up owed arts so I can squeeze in some commission slots as promised this month!

Miette run cycle + wip process

Starting of April with some animation!! I've been working on revamping Miette's toyhou.se page (still far from done) but I really wanted to include her running across the screen, plus I have been craving to do an animated cycle for so long! This was super duper fun and I look forward to making more in the future + maybe doing a tutorial one of of the different paces!

Process wise these are in the opposite order, I relied heavily on video footage of a german shepherd, studying the poses...

Speedpaint - March

Another month, another speedpaint batch!

Mostly commissions as I sadly kept forgetting to enable the recording on the Crowsong concept arts and adopts :,D Hope you enjoy!

MAP call / storyboard - Pure Imagination

Finally done! It became a far more ambitious one than I expected as per usual but I am so so excited and overjoyed for this one, not only does it give more insight on their friendship but the entire project is a love letter to so many things that inspire me and brings me joy!

The application is already open for early access, everything can be found in the video description!! Thanks so much for the interest that's been shown towards it and for those that apply<3

ClipStudioPaint In Depth - part 2 (animation folders/timeline)

This part covers the timeline and deep dives extra into using folders and the animation layout! This was a big project to work on so I hope it's of help!

Bug cat adopts batch + more art

It's 3 am but I said I'd finish them "today" and so I did >:) The rest are comms, avian requests and a bunch more sketch gifts for Lune! Super happy with all these!

Bug cat designs in order are Firefly, Moth, Snail. Bumblebee, Dragonfly and Roach! I originally only intended to make 4 but there are just so many fun concepts, I'd love to make spider, cricket and scorpion ones eventually as well....

Artbook tour - gift for Lune 1/2

A bit of a different video! If all goes to plan this will go up at the same time as the other post showing the separate art pieces in better quality! Hope you enjoy!

Apologies for the terrible lighting and color balance and quality but I hope it's interesting to watch nonetheless! My hands look sickly with the phone camera lol

Artbook pieces- gift for Lune 1/2

A bit of a different video! If all goes to plan this will go up at the same time as the other post showing the full artbook and talking about the mediums etc! Hope you enjoy!

At the very end you can also find some beaded animals I made for her!

Kvitravn - wip 2

I wanted to get a bit further on this with an updated wip before it gets shelved for a while whilst working on other higher priority projects :) 

I've extended the audio to include more members and I'm happy with how it's coming along! All these rotations and detailed birds will be a pain but also fun to work on

Under a violet moon - Finished project

Making this post visible for all patrons since all tiers joined in on it! Will be public tomorrow :)

Huge huge thanks again to everyone who partook, I hope everyone's happy with it as well and that the credits are correct, feel free to let me know if it should be changed!

MAP concept art + more art

Finished all the background tests finally, they're all found seperately scrolling to the end of the post! I'm a day late with this post but it was well spent setting up the rest of the MAP call, including rules, art direction etc :)

These were a fun challenge, my biggest art-wish is to get better at bgs so it was a good opportunity to push myself out of my comfort zone

Other art includes Crowsong for the visual color guides (not fully done yet)  commissions/wip, a gift + anot...

New OC + pokémon adopts & arts

Kingfisher's art is all done and I'm hoping to code his page sometime later this week! Such a fun palett to work with too c:

When I was sat streaming with friends the other day I just wanted to draw one pokefusion idea which then spiraled into a whole batch! They'll drop on toyhou.se tomorrow (art offers only) I loved drawing the little fun guys,,, 

The rest are comms, trades, gifts and avian requests!

MAP storyboard wip 2 - Pure Imagination

Super duper rough boards of everything is done! Just the tedious cleaning up left :,) suuuper excited for this one these 2 bring me a lot of joy,,, 

I wanted to post it cleaner but it's gonna take a while + I figured someone might wanna see this stage,. With it being this messy it's a massive time saver tip! Just testing out layouts and getting the ideas out whilst they're fresh in ones mind

Turnaround art-base

Been wanting to make a base like this for a while, with the main intention to help those wanting to make easier references for ocs (either animated or placed out as PNGs), but it can of course be used for adopts and such as well!

Feel free to request my toyhou.se base page as an additional character to have examples show up in that 2024-03-06 17:02:21 +0000 UTC View Post

OC animations + art

Besides the avian requests I've treated myself to some time to just doodle and animate my characters for the fun of it, since it's often I only draw a character for project or toyhou.se decor purposess. 

I've been having fun trying new brushes and I've also wanted to try recreate the pokémon anime show style for forever and so I finally did! Super duper happy with them and I definitely want to do more soon, hand drew the bgs and everything, deeply enjoyed the whole process c:

Finished PMV - Arsonist's Lullabye

Spontaneous PMV with a song I've wanted to use for some time ft some slight symbolim and lore hints that'll hopefully make more sense in the future >:) 

Since patreon pledges are still being processed names might be missing in the credits, apologies if so!

Speedpaint - February

(Flash warning)

Many comms, some OC pieces and looooots of sketches! Didn't wait until the last day of the month to put a speedpaint together for once woo

Art + adopt wips

Big bunch of arts including some trades, gifts, comms, raffle prizes, avian requests and 4 bug themed adopts I've wanted to make for some time now (Moth, Snail, Dragonfly and Cockroach)

Second slide some might recognise as it's an adopt i got some time ago and forgot to ever share the finished ref of, sadly didn't end up connecting with them so they'll be put back up on th eventually

MAP storyboard wip 1 - Pure Imagination

New Multi Animator Project in the works featuring Falcinflight and Crowsong... Hoping to drop it in March & it'll be public (/ not just patron exclusive this time)

I'm not using the entire song but I've got about half left to do + refs & concept art/visual direction, super duper excited!

Although not as storydriven as some other ones, it hones in more on their friendship as they hang out along with some fun lil details after the buildup! A little love letter to howl's mov...

Violet Moon wip 2

A bunch more progress! super proud of the rough animation so far and I included the storyoard and first pass wips again for comparison C: 

Been having fun experimenting with the vibrant palett as well! The wide shot is a rough draft on top of the lineart for my collab partner to work on!

Hoping to stream the cleanup on youtube sometime this upcoming week!

2 new OCs + their art

Wanted these posted yesterday but didn't finish the art until today oops

Here are the 2 newest Wingedclan members! Proud and excited over these pieces and their pages<3 I also had a fun time experimenting with the icons, especially the rendering on the dark fur,  pinecones and leaves! They'll be in this month's speedpaint too!

(animated paw base is available in the bases collection for birbs + avians)

OC wips + art

Finished up all the wingedclan kits' icons, have drawn some gifts, more avian requests, some cat studies and then started sketching out new designs I've gotten of more Wingedclan cats! 

My goal is to hopefully feel somewhat complete with the roster of cats in that group so that I can put together another voice claim project! Super excited to work more on them all<33
Lil early wip blurbs for each as well if anyone's interested;
