I was dreading having to animate magic sparkles the other day, now I feel in the zone and want to do all of the sparkly effects XD oh, the glittery bits might look a bit weird, I’ll be doing those in Flash later :|
Blabbering and junk…it had a point but I must be tired :|
I was wondering the other day what people would prefer me to upload and whatnot. I haven’t had all that much time lately for doing proper drawings of my own stuff, and technically with all my work I really shouldn’t (every time I say this though I end up drawing a bunch anyway cause I can’t manage my time >_>).
But yeah, I can upload occasional things of class work but I don’t know whether I should put up more life drawings or more animation tests . _____ . yeaaahhhhh…I don’t know…they’re probably equally boring since a lot of my drawings are hand studies(unless it’s what I do in class in which case it’s mainly naked ladies, but I can’t scan those) and a lot of my animation so far is fairly banal (characters just raising their head or arm or whatever).
hmmm, I feel kind of crummy now…not sure why, I haven’t done anything. Oh well.
so when Lozo asked me how tall musella was It never really came to mind how tall she really was.. I mean she is technically just like 2 inches smaller then Lawrence.. and Lawrence is..
THIS MUCH SHORTER THEN NEFARIOUS!!!
HOW TALL IS NEFARIOUS??
HOW TALL IS LAWRENCE
HOW SMALL DID I MAKE MUSELLA!!!!
THIS KEEPS ME AWAKE AT NIGHTS!!!!
Their heights change a bunch…so I measured them~yay
Sorry XD I find it interesting for some reason…>_>
there is almost no point using the first series as a height guide because of how different the heights can be between cutscenes, in-game cutscenes and gameplay (I’m sure I saw somewhere that all the heights were exaggerated in certain scenes to make characters easier to see or something). Sometimes Nefarious can be like this
oh…okaaayyyyyyy, a 15ft Nefarious (Ratchet is 5ft). Or
…a 7ft Nefarious? kinda…it’s a bit weird here cause Courtney changes between just over 5ft and 6ft in another scene o_____o (Clank is 2ft)
Oh and Lawrence only comes up to his elbow :| and Clank is some itty bitty thing.
In the Future series Lawrence comes up to his shoulders…which makes more sense. But even in the Future series his height seems to change between 6ft and 9ft.
Around 6ft…
and 9ft?
It’s hard to tell cause of the camera angles. In A4O his official height is just over 6ft, but I think that’s when he’s couching…or squatting…or whatever it is he does. So Lawrence is between 5-7ft if Nefarious is 6ft-9tf. I think he is probably closer to 8ft if you average it out, making Lawrence around 6ft :D so back to the start, Musella isn’t small…unless Nefarious really is 6ft when not squatcouching >:|
this has been Fun Fact Speculation with Chicin~ I hope you had as much fun cramming these useless facts in to your head as I did~:3
it was raining a lot a while ago, for some reason I thought of Pyxis playing in the rain :| …I want to do more doodles in my life drawing book now, that brown paper is so nice to draw on XD
we’ve been doing walk cycles in our 2D class but I never bring my tablet, so when we do examples in class they end up like this :| except that blue one…I had it that day…
Trying out a slightly different style with that background from a few weeks ago. Are the characters any easier to see? harder? . ______ .
