I'ts been a while since I did my last update post so I wanted to let you take track of my works.
First of all I'm happy that you enjoyed the Milky video even tho it was short, it had a great feedback!
Don't worry I'm already working on another animation, I don't know yet how long will it be or when I'll be able to publish it, but just so you know, the protagonist will have some sort of superpower.. eheh
So, let's start talking this seriously now.
First, MOCAP.
If you don't know, it's a tecnique that makes you animate by using your own body in front of a camera or by using sensors, and the model will do the same things as you do.
To let you understand better what I can do, here's a very easy example:
Remember, this is all done by me moving my body, but it will improve the animation aswell as time to produce it.
For now I bought myself a Kinect (it's not too much but it's a nice place to start) with planned investments for an iPhoneX for facial tracking and later on a Rokoko Suit, if you don't know it go check it out, it's great but it's also very expensive.
For this reason I will probably soon start a goal for Patreon to sustain the investment.
I'd like to thank you all already because you're already helping me a lot experimenting with this!
Second thing: Figures.
So, I'm starting to learn sculpting (that will obviously improve quality on the models) but I just started so it will require time.
In the meantime, I was able to make a pair of figures for Reiko and Folly as I always wanted to make something like this.
Before you take a look at them, I want to know if you want them to become real.
This means me taking in charge the production and shipment if you are interested in having them.
I think they look nice but I will let you be the judge of that!
Don't be shy and let me know your thoughts in the comments.
I want you to know that making them real (around 15 cm) is not a cheap or fast thing, so their price would be based on that.
For my estimation now it can't be lower than 70 € / 85 USD each (to produce a batch of 30 total, 15 per type)
I'm currently searching for the best offer, so I'll keep you updated.
Lastly, with the statue comes a new banner image for twitter that you can see in advance.
Well, now with all of this being said, I'll be waiting on your thoughts in the comment!
See you all soon ;)

Oh really huh? I was thinking of miss incredible at the time from the Disney movies the incredibles where she could stretch like a rubber band and change shape too.

You went very close with that rubber thing eheh

1. i’d like to say kudos on sculpting the models. 2. the mocap is a great investment it will save time and energy on doing the animations. 3. I think your idea for a stretching kind of super power is a great one. 4. my idea for a superpower would be to inject them and turn them into rubber that way I could inflate/stretch them like a toy. Keep up the great work. 🥰

The idea of a little mocap studio was always in my mind, but didn't have a purpose for it... Now I have! c: For the super powers I would go for a more... stretchy kind of. eheh

Thank you for the support and the praise here! :) The mocap thing will take awile to set in the video production pipeline, but it'll improve thigs in a lot of ways when I finally have it up and running!

You did it! WOW! 🤯 This is amazing, the motion capture sure will improve a lot your videos, and will simplify the making too! I can't wait to see your new project with this enhancements! 🤩 And do we want to talk about the figures? They are beautiful, you did an amazing job with the sculpting! Congrats for all my friend: your future will be bright! 🙌

Oooh so much to look forward to ^3^ Firstly I find it interesting about that animating with your own body, it's sound something that would be fun. Secondly, Fantastic to see you creating these figures it really does show how much you've done over the past few years ^w^. If I had spare money I would definitely have a gander and buy a Reiko figure sometime in the future. Finally I wonder what this super power will be perhaps she'll be gigantic after their transformation X3. Again it's incredible to see how much you've done. 😉👍❤️
