Inktobertale day 11 + 12: Clock and Penguin

Don’t mind the abrupt style change, I wasn’t feeling the old one lol

Also- the outfits in the clock one were designed by me; ill probably use the outfits more after inktobertale, but for now I’m just gonna stick with the canon ones

Here’s a breakdown of my animation.

Once I created the cave set in 3D, I retextured all of the blocks to be a wireframe so I could more easily keep the proportions correct as the camera moved through the scene. I began with a simple box person body. Not only did this help me make sure the proportions were correct but the different angles and sides of the character helped me eventually keep the characters features in the right places later. It’s very rough, but it was a good indication that I was on the right track.

Then began the tedious process of refining the animation. I did a new pass over the original animation with all the features of the character. It’s more detailed, but it’s just as rough in a lot of ways. I wasn’t trying to ensure elements were consistent frame to frame, so you can see a lot of the linework is very wobbly and inconsistent.

Once that was done I went back and did a cleanup phase. This helped smooth out all those inconsistencies and I worked on making sure the animation was smooth and flowed nicely. This became the basis for the final inks and color.

When I’d gotten far enough into working on the scene I went back to the 3D model and rendered it out in multiple passes. I did a flat lighting pass which you see here, and then a shadow pass. I combined the two in Premiere, added some color adjustments and then rendered it out to be used as the background for the final product.

I imported the finished rendered background into Procreate Dreams and began the final coloring. I’d already previously decided on the desaturated colors that would make them fit in this cave environment, so coloring was actually a breeze.

The final two elements that really brought it all together was a shadow layer and a glow layer for the torch. The shadow layer was tricky, but it definitely helps make it seem like the character is interacting with the environment.

As previously mentioned I thought I was going to import this into Procreate and animate it there since I like the Animation Assist tool in Procreate more than I do with how Dreams works. But ultimately because so much of this animation was tied to the movement of the camera I ended up animating ALL of this in Procreate Dream.

I’m really proud of my work here. If there’s anything you wanna learn more about how I worked or anything please feel free to ask, I’d be more than happy to talk about the process more!

Inktobertale day 10: Tides

Honestly pretty happy with how i did the shading on this one lol

Small color animation!! This is actually the first time ive drawn color ever, i think

I kinda didn’t want to do todays prompt for inktobertale, so i did this instead

Color by superyoumna

Inktobertale day 8: bento

Just flat colors bc its late and I’m tired

Inktobertale day 7: Call an ambulance …but not for me

Explanation + full image below cut

Full image:

Francium is an alkali metal, which is a group of metals that are extremely reactive to water. It’s the most reactive to water out of all of the elements in that group, and the 4th image is theoretically an image of what happens when you drop francium in water

Also if you’re wondering where the francium came from… uh.. they drew it between the frames! Yeah!

Also also dont look at ink in the third frame too closely lol,, i was being kinda lazy with this one. I might clean it up another time tho

A couple of people from Gaza have reached out to me about their fundraisers:

❤️Eyad Salem(@randasalem75) is trying to provide safety for his family of seven. His fundraiser is very new, only at 31/50,000!! He hasn’t been vetted, but his fundraiser seems trustworthy.

💚Mahmoud Ayyad(@mahmoudayyads) is trying to get his own and extended family out of Gaza to rebuild their lives. His fundraiser is at 6,770/55,000, and he has been vetted.

🤍Heba Yasmeen(@yasmeenmahmoudgaza) is a mother of three, trying to get out of Gaza to complete her studies. Her fundraiser is only at 2,071/40,000, and she has been vetted.

Please donate if you can, spread the word if you can’t!!

Sameh was vetted by @/gazavetters, number 109. He and his family have only raised 1,307 out of 50,000 to get out of Palestine and to Egypt.

Please help by donating if you are able, and if you aren’t please share this post or his posts!!🇵🇸❤️🖤🤍💚

Inktobertale days 3 and 4: Coffee and Frame

I was kinda lazy on the background for coffee, so i might go back and add more to it sometime after inktobertale

For frame, mine is a bit far fetched bc i did less “frame” and more “framing”(like in composition)

btw probably not gonna post day 5 until like a few more days because i accidentally started coloring it in a way that takes ages..
