Aww Cassie's in her simple but sweet white dress - I made the background grey so you could see the veil better. It's so typical of Cassie to be wearing those loud bangles on her wrists, even with such a formal dress on. It's just her style, and she's too cocky to change it for anyone :P

*edit* I felt bad that you guys weren't happy with the bottom poses so I tried to fix them up. Here's the re-uploaded version.

Ha! Here's proof that Cassie doesn't fake & bake :P no tan lines! Although I though about including them, that would be funny (but not so attractive).

Yay! Cassie gets to cosplay as a ganguro school girl, hehe. I don't think Cassie is the type to artificially tan her skin, yet this style of school uniform just fit her so well. The loose socks make her look even shorter than her already is.

Originally I was thinking I would tie up the girls' hair for the bathing suit poses, but Cassie without those long hair tails just wouldn't feel like Cassie. Her bathing suit style is pretty basic, nothing too fancy, but it's cute and works on her. What do you think?

Here are all of Cassie's poses, which is neat to see the whole version of her outfit. I feel like she's very cosplayable. It's almost like a cheerleader outfit? Love dem boots. Very sailor moon inspired, haha.

I think I forgot to post this earlier, so here is the image from the Patreon video where I teased a visual novel. I gotta say, google sketchup is the best. The background is all stuff I mashed from the sketchup warehouse and repainted, but this was meant to be a test. I see lots of things wrong with it like the perspective is too high up and the lines are too dark, which makes them stand out as sketchup furniture. I think Hunie Pop's background artist used a similar technique, but for our visual...

Yay! So I spent a few days and cleaned up what I could, re-added all the color, and threw in some highlights etc to make Elle look better. I think it's a big improvement from the outsource job. This probably won't be the final version of her, since I still want to do a shading pass on the whole thing buuuut that'll take a while. For now, this is where she's at ^_^ Do you think it looks better? Or am I just OCD and fixed up things only I would notice...? Oh and in case you were wondering th...

This is how the outsourced cleanup animator's inks/colors turned out... We were not too pleased, but I suppose that's the risk of hiring someone you haven't worked with before :< Just sucks that we had to pay him for all the work he did, but I guess we're smarter for next time. I'm going to upload the version I've been working on next, which is a total reboot but hopefully looks better. It's part of the process so I thought it would be interesting to share this stage with everyone so you can ...

Same as the yukatas - not sure if these 'night out on the town/dinner date' dress outfits will make it in. It's still nice to have though in case I want to show different outfits in scenarios for a visual novel ^-^

This is what Cassie's yukata design was going to be; I'm not sure if the kimono/yukata outfits will make it in the game since they are a lot of extra work. Not sure if people like the outfits too, so if they're not adding value then my time would be better spent on other art for the girls :)

Oh my! Karma has gone through quite the transformation since the time these roughs were made. You can tell I was pulling inspiration from Indian culture and their beautiful style. It's always good to have references nearby when you're in concept phase! I think Karma's face and body type wound up staying fairly close to these originals... Do you think her final design worked out for better or worse?

This was teased a bit in the video so I'll share it here, even though this character is more than a month out from being complete. Meet Karma! She's really sassy and confident! I love her personality; she's a bit older than the other girls which means she's experienced ;) Her curves were a lot of fun to draw, but that outfit... So many details! What was I thinking! It kind of has a Princess Leia vibe a bit.

This girl never made it past the initial rough sketch you see above, mostly because the style was too bland and steampunk doesn't fit in with the rest of the cast (at this point). If there is a big outcry from you guys then I'll readdress her, but for now I just think she's a shelved character.

Here's a new pencil test from our friend and super talented animator, Chris! We had a lot of back and forth discussions describing Cassie's personality which helped influenced her little animation nuances. I love the result! It's coming togetherrrrr!

Here's another animation storyboard, this time it's for Cassie! I thought it would be neat to have her do a little hip pop, since she's so sassy. Her hair tails would be a lot of fun to animate!

I'm starting to have those dreams where you keep working on something because you've been starting at it for so long O_O elle haunts me... So I am going to take a break from working on this animation for now, and hop onto working more on new girlssss <3 Here's the work in progress of it nyow!

Blast from the past! This was like the second drawing I ever did of Mio, and I can already spot all the errors. All the same, it's a good breakdown of my process. I work mainly in Flash. Horribly, buggy, loves to crash every hour Flash. I hope this speed paint is entertaining enough; for future ones I'll try just recording the inking/coloring stuff so my annoying voice isn't in the way of the art :P

Yay! I'm working on coloring Elle's animation ^_^
Last time you saw her she was just a fancy pencil test, and now it's been back and forth with a cleanup animator we paid who ended up delivering NOT very good stuff... So now I'm just gonna do it all myself to make sure it's done the right waaaaaay and looks goooood. Haha. Oh the pains of outsourcing; usually it ends up that doing it yourself is always the best way. But now I'm broke from that mistake (T^T) sniffle.
Later on when I finish...

She's all done! Only thing left is for me to find a cape and elastics to connect everything up to myself. I'm really excited to try it out in the dark with the lights turned on. Expect photos of me cosplaying it soon <3

Aaaand here's my horrible attempt at Cassie's voice. Be honest with me if I need to stick to just doing art, haha XD

This is so silly, and has terrible audio quality buuuuut Ojipanda/game designer wanted me to do a voice test for Mio and Cassie. So here's Mio's test!
I have the worst mic; so if we can afford a sound budget that's something I'll need to buy - plus hiring actual talented people to do the voice work. What do you think? Do I stand a chance of being Mio's voice?
