Is it going according to plan? It's one of my animations, so probably not...

Posted the wrong video. Oops! Reload and try again!

New Friday, new WIP. This one is more of a story preview than new tum content, so if you want to go in blind, then don't watch. But if you're impatient, here's a tease of what's to come. This is only 1080p, I'll save the 4K export for the final video.

A lot of time was spent revisiting older parts of the animation, re-rendering them into video files and adding sound in post. Turns out Rive can transform text and wrap it around objects, so that made a summoning circle easy to make. For some reason, the text rings take the longest to export. I think Rive is bordering on crashing with some of the stuff I'm doing.

The first 3/4ths of the animation are basically done, and I think one more tum scene for the end will be enough for the public animation. I have an idea for the final scene, and hopefully I can do it justice. Let's see if I can finish this animation for or before next Friday.

What do you think of it so far? Excited for Rive animations? Or wish for the old animations? Thanks for your patience and TTFN!

Marcille WIP 2

The unedited version can be viewed on Itaku, with higher quality versions on Patreon and my other sites. A Patreon Deluxe for this project can also be found on Itchio, Patreon and my other sites. Consider pledging to me on Patreon for more Patreon Deluxe content and to support the production of more animations!

I knew those clothes looked familiar. Delicious in Dungeon is one of my fave anime

I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THE FULL VERSION SOON.

Dave Davidson

Super keen, this will be so great !

Brandon Weatherstone

This looks fantastic, the angles used and camera movement really feels next level in quality. Strangely enough, this does feel a bit like a throwback to some of your earlier work, particularly the animations of Lust from Full Metal Alchemist, so that's fun too. Not to spoil the anime, but I do remember Falin transforming into a giant monster-hybrid toward the end of the first season, so I kinda hope she does here too so Marcille gets a truly gigantic belly. Really looking forward to this one.

Ooh this is looking promising. Will be interesting to see how this compares to the usual old animations we're used to. Excited for this!

While the Deluxe will go larger than the public animation and I feel obligated to test Rive's limits with tum size, I don't think Marcille will grow THAT big. But now that you mention it, I can see the Lust similarities. Must be all of the red...

Dim Pixel Animations

The fact it runs at a full fat 60fps is the most striking change. Not sure if that looks better than 30fps, maybe it takes it too much into uncanny valley territory. I'll have to keep experimenting!

I WILL ASSURE YOU DIM THAT I WILL ENJOY IT LIKE I DO EVERY ONE OF YOUR CREATIONSTHEY MAKE IT TRULY MASSIVE, BE PREGNANT FOR ME DIM IF YOU COULD DO RAP FOR ME, THAT WOULD BE GREAT, THANKS, MATE.

If its possible to have interactive rive then 100% for it. But I do miss the more regular interactive content

Dim Pixel Animations

Technically it's possible, but it would require me either making a Unity game for each project or building a website per animation (and I don't know if my animations would run properly when put into a browser). So I could do it, but it would add so much time to each project that I don't think it's worth it. But Rive is being updated all the time, and it wouldn't surprise me if they add a "Export to Html" option eventually. If they do, you bet I'll be learning how to use that ASAP!
