alright, tomorrow it´s over to the normal maps to Willa Brown´s Plates, Straps, belt and belt metals.

and i have thankfully Started on the Storyboarding for act 1 of my 100th video,

and while i won´t use 3D Models for this, i might actually do the blockout for the models for this act when i feel far enough into this or even tomorrow, there are going to be 9 pages for this 1st act and i MIGHT do them none linar tho i did Get the ending for it done (with a tree) and the 1st three palanels done

iu_1455786_6434868.webp

also i did add in title cards for the locations, been on and off with this regarding the Script however, i feel like it might not be a bad idea if i do them for the storyboards.

yeah

missing Plates, Leather Straps keeping them up, belt, belt metals, socks and boots

was planning to get color maps for the Belt and metals on that belt done but, with the Storyboards for my 100th video, i felt like Splitting it up was a good idea.

iu_1455144_6434868.webp

also kinda nice to work on other things from time to time, espcially when im trying to learn a good textureing workflow for everything, Skin, Scales, Cloth you name it.

speaking of Storyboards

i have actually Started takeing more Work into them, with the 1st act comming up as the next Storyboards, these skilsl will only improve and im 100% going to use Ref models for that scene, as well as for a few other scenes too, feel like it might help useing Blender for these

iu_1455145_6434868.webp

regardless how i do them, once all Boards or Boards or something like that i´ll maybe do a Best palanels pick as an art post here, feeling very pourd of these.


i might ALSO make a Newgrounds Animatic Teaser for this, if this is my 100th video on YouTube why not also for Newgrounds than eh? in editon might spread some hype around too...

however and more importenly this will be a proof and concept regarding HOW i´ll handel the Teasers, i have already done 2D animatics before with my YT intro however, what i got in mind is a step up.

i do not think it is meant to be fine art, Storyboards never are unless you happen to be ridley scott in my eyes.

that said i think im improveing here, i think you might be able to tell from looking at this,

i have also figured out good workflows and ways to get them done too,

things that´ll come in handy with the Next bit i´ll be storyboarding.

that been act 1 whice will feel like an old Disney movie, Think Bambi and especially fantasia´s Rite of Spring scene.

indeed the Track itself will be used alongside a few other bits of classical music includeing Night on Bald Mountain(whice was also used for fantasia) and Gadfly Suite, Op. 97a Finale (A.K.A Little big Planet 2´s Final boss theme)

yesterday i also got a brontosaurus done and i Really love the idea to start off this Retrosaur world useing neptune the mystic, setting the mood up

iu_1454043_6434868.webp


i also got a good plan for what i´ll work on, while im still haveing Polls, before i jump into the 90´s bits, i´ll likely get the opening act done, in the musuem, speaking of that and considering it´ll be about the movies as muc has how dinosaurs have Evovled over the years, it might also end up becomeing a movie theater too as much as a musuem.

right now with the Script it kinda feels like we´re switching a bit around so, might be good to join the things.

as im doing the Storyboarding, the animatics and Previz will be done in alot of Ways however,

for Toko and Trikira´s Scene i do feel like i might ask someone to give that animatic a shot, tho mostly for Fun´s Sakes.

yeah i know it´s a title known might need help But, i don´t often ask for help on these sorts of things.

iu_1453616_6434868.webp


and while im a still far away from doing the Actual animatics and it will be done in CGI and there is ALOT of work so haveing it split up a bit might be useful.

the real motivation to post this blog post is thorw this idea out there in case anyone wanna animate these two, plus i do imagine howing a rough animated animatic might be fun to use as a reference, after all there are alot of People online who do Animatics and put, let´s just say more than enough work into them in my opinion but that´s just me, maybe when Willa Brown and Hercy are done i might have changed my mind about it, just know i will give a few Requiremeants to whoever dose that animatic.

iu_1453617_6434868.webp

those i think would, tho might be fun to work around with


1 - Do some of the vocie acting yourself as a temp, this is for real vocie actors to have a good blueprint to work from, it dosen´t have to be Prefect, i actually did that for how to keep a Dragon´s Previz


2 - maybe go watch the Film School'd video on Previz here especially when if they are only used to do animatics


3 - this is really of a thing to keep in mind than a major requiremeant but, don´t be surpised if i say you might put in a little too much effort into the animatic, if you have seen my Storyboards, animatics or Previz you know the quality.


than agian i might just it myself, giveing it untill i get Willa Brown and Hercy done and i really can get to work on this whole project.

page 1 is done, i didn´t plan to get it done today BUT! hey got it done, helps alot i also got Willa Brown´s normal maps done so Quickly.


anyways going to Get these two shots done THAN i can call it done for today after haveing Picked the next frames.

Telling you, there is a Certian case of bombastic Drama in this that is from the 1933 king Kong in this scene and i hope People will love it.


also yesterday i did a little Test run regarding the Storyboarding, plan for This scene(and the vintage scene) is to mostly do it with 2D elemeants with some Cut out bits done with Blender and Reslover, that way i can get a good Cinmatic feeling to it while not going over the Top in trems of animation, like with rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles storyboards.

colors for Tanktopss and shorts are now done, missing the Normal maps, roughness, Spec and metalness maps for those places, then to the leather bits, metal bits, socks and boots.


than her hair groom and fluff on the shorts, THAN onto rigging.

also

started storyboarding, after this storyboard is done, i´ll get the vintage bit done.

doing YT Polls on this subject and the current plan right now is to also Blockout the models right after the Storyboards are done for that very scene i did storyboards for.

Posted by Yokomation - 12 days ago


yeah

cut it a bit short today

the faster i got it done the faster i can get back to work on the other sheets im missing befoe i get to work on the storyboarding.


iu_1449771_6434868.webp


still tho it was 100% worth the Effort on these thumbnails here,

makes it look way better, AND i get a little Warmup done before i jump into the actual storyboarding ya know.

speaking i still got 8 sheets for both team trike and Rex to do.

so let´s get those done after these thumbnails are done.

THAN i can start storyboarding and blocking out our main models,

whice i already got Rexy´s eyes ready for.

THIS HAS BEEN A HUGE EFFORT! but it´s only getting started and i can´t wait to begin animateing this for real, much less begin on the Previz/animatic phase.

OK, off to a Good start on Willa Brown´s clothing,

now im going to handel this ONE elemeant at a time,

so this means i´ll get her goggoles done fully first, THAN onto her tank top and shorts

workflow plan is as fellow

  • Goggoles
  • Tanktop and Shorts
  • Plates, metal bits, Leather Straps and belt
  • Socks and boots

than after Willa Brown´s cloth is done, i´ll begin working on her Fluff for her shorts AND the hair on her head

today i was off to watch Cherkced Ninja 3, great movie.

i was also planning to get Akio here done BUT! i think it´ll be best if i save her for later.

iu_1449450_6434868.webp

maybe tomorrow tho? we´ll see, would be nice to Get Akio done soon,

not only because i need her for Jurassica but also my 99th video,

speaking of, bonk´d down to 97 on my channel tho only because one video wasn´t worth keeping around anymore,

no really was just some audio that´s it, now that Yossi video Mario 64 whatever is now gone for good, i can use it for something better.

Animation of Willa Brown and Hercy, a Teaser for Forever enimies or something else, we´ll see.


speaking of Forever eneimies, first side critter is done, thumbnail for the NG Artpost is also gotten rexy onboard and i have written down what should happen in the storyboard. all is shapeing out well.

looking at this blockout of the thumnail, i might be on the Right track for JP´s Rexy here, this time no underlying artwork to draw from, just reference.

quick reminder I DID NOT JUST TRACE OVER THE ACTUAL FRAME but i did use it as a base to work from and riped and chopped, guled together everything untill i got a good pose to work from as seen here.

iu_1448403_6434868.webp

kinda Starting to like that way of doing things, gonna be fun to do it for storyboarding.

this is of course tomorrow if i got the time for it, after Hercy´s got a new set of eyes whice will be after i got a nice hair cut.

YEP

for my 99th video

after getting these Trikes here done, in a sketech, i´ll likely Get out first side Critter done, the Two legged lizard´s

iu_1447237_6434868.webp


NGL, after getting a New Storyboard formart done yesterday all setup and ready, i think i would make sense to Test it out a bit right? SO why not get that lizard done so i can do this Scene here.
