if someone does it, i'll make a statue of them in blender, 3D print it and send it to his house

[vestal gorge]

[azure valve]

Your honour, the stakes were high

[elder arrow]

now, is it worth getting nuked for a meme?

(vsauce music starts)

[azure valve]

cap do it rn

[tight heart]

when a fan does better than the devs #art-showcase message

[vestal gorge]

i dont think so

[elder arrow]

i'll give you my honest opinion

[vestal gorge]

i think the circumstances under what both i do and what northwood do are vastly different

[elder arrow]

you did a really good job improving surface, but the problem is that surface is flawed by itself from a game balance perspective

so, even if nw had the chance to change surface with your module, if they're keeping game balance in mind, they wouldn't

[vestal gorge]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[elder arrow]

again, aestetically it's a really good concept and i'm very impressed

[vestal gorge]

they do whatever they want, i just wanted to do an art pass, i dont know much about game design

and thank you

[elder arrow]

you're welcome

i told you because i had to face these problems on my server

[vocal roost]

i’m willing to bet northwoods surface rework is 1000x better simply because it’s an entirely different layout

not the stupid weird cb one

[vestal gorge]

hey now

[forest plover]

it is true

gameplay wise current surface sucks

but like

wow

great work dude

looks so good

you should be super proud of it its awesome looking

[vocal roost]

yea the textures and all look amazing

[vestal gorge]

Thanks, its good to hear, though on my personal level i think this is a below average for me, didn't come out 100% how i wanted but eh

[elder arrow]

what other work do you do?

i'm curious now

[vestal gorge]

I'm an environment artist so I usually work on games decorating levels

I've worked on a few games none of which are exactly famous

with the exception of the three textures i did for containment breach lmao

Before switching to the industry direction I was doing custom model for Garry's Mod servers

[glossy acorn]

What studios have you worked for?

[elder arrow]

cool! do you have like a portfolio or something?

[cerulean umbra]

nw, hire this man

[vestal gorge]

Only Third Subdivision Studios at the moment but I'm in talks with Big Ant Studios and Sledgehammer Games

But until then I'm unemployed lol

[vestal gorge]

I agree

[torn spear]

I can already hear the email from nw HQ

(FR though REALLY good stuff. What tools did you use To make this)

[vestal gorge]

X to Doubt I don't think they reach out, I'll have to wait until they post a listing for an artist :p

I used blender for modelling, Substance Painter for texturing and unity for rendering as in engine stuff

[grim bluff]

@vestal gorge sir you do realize that northwood is going to remake surface zone and you essentially remade the surface zone from containment breach and not sl? otherwise this is good as fuck

the surface zone in sl is from containment breach

[vestal gorge]

I do know yes

[grim bluff]

can we hire this guy

[vestal gorge]

It's an art pass because I wanted to just do a challenge of some kind lol

[grim bluff]

bro finished surface zone before nw did

[vestal gorge]

WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THAT RAHHHH

ITS UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES

[torn spear]

Hey! You may never know! Keep up the good work dud! Looks good and stay positive

[grave obsidian]

hivemind

[torn spear]

95% of this server is brainrot

[grave obsidian]

great job by the way, the redesign looks fantastic

[glossy acorn]

i aint gonna lie mr foodeater, you inspired me to remake a room i full heartedly hate in sl rn (servers)

current progress so far (using ue because brush tools :)) )

[torn spear]

Love to see it

[vestal gorge]

Very nice!

[trail estuary]

it doesnt have to be a whole original asset just change the layout please 😭

for the current zone

[vestal gorge]

listen i could TRY but it aint gonna be great

im not a game designer 😭

[torn spear]

Sheesh I just want narrative design lol, only thing I've made in blender is a donut

A very bad..red frosting donut

[midnight lantern]

this is the result for the first room in my game

[torpid dock]

Looking good

But you need to invisible wall that entire room

Otherwise players are gonna break your game

[midnight lantern]

already done, unreal engine has a build-in tool for collision and its like perfect but just in case i added invisible walls everywhere

[torpid dock]

Nice

But someone will probably still find a way to break the Game, they always do

And you'll get to chase perfection forever

[midnight lantern]

i guess thats why players exist, to either play the game or break it

[warped iron]

Hi art people

[tight heart]

i loove fps creator assets!

had to code them myself, they're just imported models and animations

[vestal gorge]

Oh hey that's that Kenny guy who makes em right? If I'm not wrong..

[glossy acorn]

still fairly wip

[vestal gorge]

Looks pretty cool! dunno about the servers that are turned on angles though

[glossy acorn]

i had that idea aswell, thinking to change or remake some assets as they dont fit with the idea i have

[trail estuary]

add some vents and fans, the current server room is a complete firehazard

[glossy acorn]

it is wip

so

[trail estuary]

yeah but

we need those vents

[glossy acorn]

yes

[covert wigeon]

might use this animation style now

[vestal gorge]

why is he so oinky boinky

[torpid dock]

bro's got that kirby style

[azure valve]

[covert wigeon]

i feel it expresses movement more

[midnight lantern]

noone will notice its just a jpn picture right?

[azure valve]

Made this but its scary

[torpid dock]

I just found out that my laptop's default power mode causes it to hit 100 degrees

so I have to keep it permanently undervolted so it doesn't fucking cook itself

and now blender doesn't crash every 10 frames

[elder arrow]

it's not normal for it to be so hot, you should clean it up and reapply thermal paste, or bring it to a technician you trust

[torpid dock]

I've already repasted the chips and cleaned the cooling system

it's literally just a design flaw in legion laptops apparently

[elder arrow]

what the...

[torpid dock]

yep gaming laptops be like that

[elder arrow]

oh that explains a lot

[torpid dock]

yeah...

[elder arrow]

gaming laptops are a ripoff

[torpid dock]

really depends on your use case

[deep crane]

Mines an actual heater during the winter

[torpid dock]

I prefer using my 3D printer as a heater instead of my laptop

[elder arrow]

for that money you can buy a much more powerful desktop

[torpid dock]

yes but I move a lot

[deep crane]

Xd

[elder arrow]

then buy a laptop that is not gaming centered

[torpid dock]

I'm not going to fucking stream games

[trail estuary]

get a pc1!!1

[elder arrow]

there are a lot of powerful laptops that don't double as a heater

[trail estuary]

as a ex laptop user

they are HORRIBLE

for anything performance related

[torpid dock]

yes but those usually don't come with RTX graphics cards

if you're putting any modern GPU into a laptop it's gonna cook

[elder arrow]

• the gpus you get on laptops are underlocked, you're getting an oven and not getting that much power

[torpid dock]

I know, but it's the best option I had

it's either buy a laptop or build 2 rigs and have large gaps where I can't do any animation or gaming

I don't suggest gaming laptops as a primary PC but if you move a lot they're about as good as you can get for performance

[azure valve]

amazing

[tardy glen]

cute

[glossy acorn]

@sharp grotto use decals
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBy62M7TcgY

[sharp grotto]

I added some details and blood

This is the finished product

[glossy acorn]

ah

[sharp grotto]

But thanks for the recommendation, will check the tutorial for any other renders

[glossy acorn]

still wip

i will retexture the servers because i dont like them :(

[proven jolt]

i like your "the sport" art

[proper stump]

Does anyone have a reference for how big the SCP:SL Zones should be in reference to a character?

While we're on that... what are the official heights of all the SCPs?

[proper stump]

Reminds me of 939's room!

[glossy acorn]

i just use the dboy

[glossy acorn]

ye its referenced off of that

the style and designing

[proper stump]

No as in the scale of the buildings in referance to a playable class

[glossy acorn]

yes, you can use the dboy as scale reference

[proper stump]

Any official scalings because I'm fine doing it by just eyeballing but people got pissed when I did that with the line-up

@zenith shale Some assistance would be appreciated if possible

[zenith shale]

Certain characters will have varying heights, however humans are around 1.48 if they were scaled down correctly

[trail estuary]

add some tarps and a shitty fan connected to one of the servers

[trail estuary]

so they are 4.8 feet? 😨

[zenith shale]

Short stacks

They used to be 1.85 meters tall

[torpid dock]

Those servers are really randomly placed, whatever poor bastard has to maintain those is crying themselves to sleep

[midnight lantern]

i still need to decorate but i made a new table and chair

[ripe junco]

cant relate, did you ever reinstall the os or dust it and and put new thermal paste on

[trail estuary]

did dust it, 5 fps on sl after some months

[ripe junco]

what kind of laptop

my laptop is stable at 25 fps on sl

with its uhd 620

[midnight lantern]

my old laptop from 2015 ran scp sl on 30 fps, how did you do that

[trail estuary]

😭

yeah

i still dont want that

[ripe junco]

good enough

[glossy acorn]

servers retexture

i did keep the inner stuff, only changed the shell texture as it kinda wasn't nice imo

[torpid dock]

Add cables?

Power and ethernet

[warped iron]

Nah it’s bluetooth

[glossy acorn]

thats going to be modelled

[torpid dock]

there's a plugin for that

don't model cables individually

[vestal gorge]

Cablerator

modelling cables manually is for chads tho

[torpid dock]

there's no need to do it manually

[vestal gorge]

do it manually

[torpid dock]

each server rack has like 42U

[vestal gorge]

do alpha cards

[torpid dock]

servers are at most 4 units, that's at least 20 cables per rack

[vestal gorge]

pSAH!! keep em low poly

[torpid dock]

there's 29 server racks in the frame

[vestal gorge]

its fine

[torpid dock]

actually that's 400 cables

[vestal gorge]

thats fine

[torpid dock]

if you want the scene to not run a memory leak you're gonna have to manually make them in pairs

[vestal gorge]

its fine

[torpid dock]

[glossy acorn]

just a plane would be fine, like a simple plane with some segments to make it look loose ^^

also im using c4d so i would have to model cables manually 😎

and to further optimize

i could just make use of LOD

ez

[vestal gorge]

yeah!

man when am i getting my artist role

[glossy acorn]

#discord-support

[vestal gorge]

guh

[torpid dock]

Why C4D?

[vestal gorge]

some people learn different software by default

¯_(ツ)_/¯

but yeah @glossy acorn you should totally try looking into blender

[glossy acorn]

i use both

[torpid dock]

Based

[vestal gorge]

oop

based

[glossy acorn]

just feel like c4d's modellling is better

[torpid dock]

Yeah

[vestal gorge]

🤝 blender users

[vestal gorge]

thats fair!

[vestal gorge]

what about texturing?

[glossy acorn]

used to use photoshop, but started to use substance

[vestal gorge]

Ah nice

Last time i used photoshop for texturing was probably 2018 or so, substance ever since then

totally a great program

[glossy acorn]

yee

i textured this door in here

[vestal gorge]

Quite nice!

altering some of the baking settings helps alot, def dont stick with the defaults if u get a chance to play around with em

[rotund locust]

#art-showcase message Are railcannons a humane weapon of war?

IM PINK!

[tardy glen]

clean setup. would play

[dusky crest]

i wonder how can he smoke

should i start trying to make games on roblox

[forest plover]

no

my friends a roblox dev and she'd tell you dont do it

not worth it outside of passion projects

[dusky crest]

then on what engine should i try to make game

[vestal gorge]

Unity if you dont care too much

Godot if you actually want to sell it

Unreal if you have a good PC

[dusky crest]

fuck is godot?

[dusky crest]

i have a good PC

[vestal gorge]

godot is open source and no fees etc etc

so you can make a game in it and never have to owe any royalities to the engine creators

[dusky crest]

wait you actually need to give money to make a game?

[vestal gorge]

no no

only when you start making past a certain amount of money you have to pay fees

[dusky crest]

oh yeah that make sense

but yeah i be only making free test games

[vestal gorge]

so for unreal its 5% when you hit 1 million USD in sales

[dusky crest]

you can forget the 1 million USD in sales

[dusky crest]

what do you suggest out of these 3 engines

[vestal gorge]

If ur going for free stuff then unity is great and not too difficult to learn

so start with that

[dusky crest]

hm ok

[dusky crest]

but like do you know any sites to like upload my games? itch.io?

[vestal gorge]

itch yeah

[midnight lantern]

clean asf

[tardy glen]

the chair just looks a lil uncomfy

[torpid dock]

Unreal Engine is most versatile, if you want the most features then UE is the best option

[glossy acorn]

godot is much begineer friendly and doesn't have the risk of a corporate breathing down your neck

[dusky crest]

i aint making the 1 million USD sales

🔥

[glossy acorn]

stil

[dusky crest]

but i feel like roblox is good to start with

[glossy acorn]

oh no dont dude

[vestal gorge]

What

[dusky crest]

why no

[glossy acorn]

not a good idea

i have dealed with roblox engine before and i will say its not worth it 💀

[dusky crest]

no shit i already dealed with the roblox studio

[glossy acorn]

then you know how awful it is

[dusky crest]

🔥

[glad fossil]

artists when I um kill them after they don't make my huge 60 dollar commission within the 10 minutes i gave them to complete it

[midnight lantern]

Bro thats SCP Foundation, im sure that chair not being comfy isnt the only thing thats bad

[tardy glen]

fair enough

[pastel notch]

First rendition of my new OC: Blaire. Any of y’all have ideas or suggestions for her design, I feel simultaneously content and discontent with it and want to know if y’all have any feedback or changes I should make to her design. Basically give me ideas for a character that fits this description:

Blaire is a 12-year-old social outcast with a peculiar obsession with withcraft, the occult, and everything supernatural. Believing all of these forces and phenomena to be real, she spends a majority of her free time exploring caves, abounded houses, and forests with her cat, Salem, to find hard evidence of their existence.

[tardy glen]

idk about feedback but love the artstyle sm

[pastel notch]

Thank you! I do a lot of art stuff in this style including…
(CW: Body horror)

[tardy glen]

yooo

reminds me of that game which name I can't remember. Miss unfortunate or something like that

[pastel notch]

Never heard of it.

So instead have some acrid

[pine geode]

must cook up 939sona

oogh i could make one based on the halloween skin

purple 939

[forest plover]

arent uh

all scps

fan made

technically

[torn spear]

I have like 4

Dew it

They are a species

[torn spear]

Technically, yeah.

[torn spear]

You could also have an albino 939

This is actually a glitch in SCP-CB in which one of the 939s in the loading bay are missing its textures. People have made some OCs out of it for stories

It's pretty nifty. I myself have nerver dabbled in it though,

[plucky leaf]

Work in progress. I'm actually pretty proud of this so far

[timber nebula]

Actually considering 939 biology it is probably impossible to have albino version as they do not have skin and they have just muscles covered in some sort of mambrane which main chemical compund is similar to hemoglobin (it is red)

🤓

[torn spear]

Bla bla bla albino 939

Plus there is no Canon in SCP

God I love that..

For all we know 939 could be purple, or blue

[halcyon sparrow]

I can put white paint on it

Is that an improvised firearm or something?

[oak copper]

Yes, made by Brazilian Cartel

[heady rock]

Nice work but the right side of his neck (from our perspect) should be out a bit more

it is barely possible to have a neck that thin

[plucky leaf]

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind next time
I'm not the best with proportions and stuff as you can see

[heady rock]

also this is not a con but rather just a comment that the guard youve drawn is quite jacked

hes got very broad shoulders

it takes a lot of delt work to look like that

[plucky leaf]

Lol

I was trying to draw the perspective correct but it looks like I unintentionally made him buff

[fading cave]

Holy shit this is awesome

[vocal roost]

they do have skin

[plucky leaf]

I wouldn't say this is enough change to warrant a repost in #art-showcase but I've actually coloured in the eyebrows (I forgot to) and made the neck a tiny bit thicker. I couldn't do much on the neck seeing as though it would take a lot of effort to polish it up after editing everything.

[proper stump]

Does anyone know the colour lift of the Tutorial?

I haven't seen anyone import the model yet..

[trail estuary]

its just a texture

[proper stump]

Yes...? Which is just an edit of the original guard texture... what I'm wondering is the colour used to "shift" the original guard texture to a new colour

[tribal kernel]

It was inspired by SCP-1875's image.

#art-showcase message
Why, we never asked for this

[warped iron]

Never asked for your opinion

#art-showcase message @vestal gorge what render engine is that?

[vestal gorge]

CUDA

Cycles blender

Yarp yarp

[trail estuary]

@vestal gorge info_player_start?

😨

hammer user?

[vestal gorge]

yessir

use to do lots of gmod dev stuff

[warped iron]

What tone mapper did you use

[vestal gorge]

Aces

Filmic

[cerulean umbra]

?

[tired sparrow]

Use agx

[vestal gorge]

What's the benefit of agx?

[tribal kernel]

PAIN AS F 🥲

[warped iron]

I use aces

[tired sparrow]

its more realistic than filmic iirc

[vestal gorge]

Meh I went for looks over realism here

I mean there's a man made out of polygons standing at the entrance there isn't anything realistic about that lol

[warped iron]

I love aces

I find it more natural than both filmic and agx

[vestal gorge]

Agreed

[torpid dock]

agx makes images pop really hard, especially when using default settings. It really depends on the scene what you use

if you really wanna be ballin' disable color management and do it manually in editing software, gives you more control

[torpid dock]

what the fuck is aces

just render a frame and switch through the filters to see which one fits

pick one with bright and dark objects in the frame at the same time

[wispy moat]

Gmod is awesome

[warped iron]

not in blender

agx is great

but i love aces

though it would be cool if i could reneder every frame as EXR and then apply aces in davinci

but each exr image is like 20mb at best

[torpid dock]

why the fuck would you do that

why waste storage with EXR

[tribal kernel]

I finaly created the scean, I even made my first blood in blender too.

[torpid dock]

scean

[tribal kernel]

remake of "scuicide or give up" meme i made (not the russin guy btw)

[warped iron]

more control in the coloring software

[torpid dock]

still pretty fucking stupid

[warped iron]

right now i can only do color correction after the tonemapper is applied

i graded enogh to realise this

exr is more color information

more freedom

control

tuning

fining

[torpid dock]

bro I've seen your videos that is way too much fucking effort

[warped iron]

but exr files are so big bruh

[warped iron]

you can always do better

[torpid dock]

stop doing EXRs tho the diffrence will be so negligible nobody will notice

[warped iron]

i never did

cuz i dont have enough storage for them

but

if i buy

an extra hard drive

[torpid dock]

a sisyphian attitude

[warped iron]

i could store all the exr files there

huray!

[oak copper]

Gluger and Locc

[torpid dock]

yeah I've had a similar plan

[warped iron]

Cool

[torpid dock]

why tho?

we need to stab whoever made that fucking original meme

the locc is soooo bad

the gluger is cursed but the locc is just... wrong

[tribal kernel]

finished for the day, more towmarrow.

[vocal roost]

you should really try to make your lighting less saturated

[covert wigeon]

Friendly tips to help improve, You could have 079 facing the Dclass, 096 could be more crouched or hunched to give it a more crippled affect, and maybe you could have a leg sticking out of the ground to represent a person stuck between heavy and the pocket dimension fr

[halcyon sparrow]

Also maybe more directional lighting because it looks kinda flat rn

[glad fossil]

Lmfao someone called out 096 and the acoustic mtf went to take a look

[forest plover]

#art-showcase message WHAT

HOW

[fossil viper]

holy real

[tired sparrow]

@atomic mauve how

[pine geode]

@tired sparrow i would make the lightbulbs movement start before the scene starts so it looks like its already in motion

awesome ass lighting btw

and like rendering and shit idk the terms

[tired sparrow]

Yeah I was thinking of doing that

It’s not don’t yet

Just testing the first two scenes of like 200

[pine geode]

well lookin cool so far

also charlies inferno

[warped iron]

Or just apply linear interpolation

[vestal gorge]

#art-showcase message I was waiting for em to eat the magazine or something ive been watching too much hyper

wOod

[deep crane]

Scp shoes go incredibly hard

[proper stump]

Just looked at this "non-optimized " SL Surface port...

https://tenor.com/view/are-you-serious-spiderman-meme-laugh-laughing-gif-7178438

[elder arrow]

and then people wonder why the game is unoptimized

[vestal gorge]

what the fuck

[elder arrow]

it's a miracle that the game even runs

[warped iron]

Wait wtf

[warped iron]

So smart

[vestal gorge]

thank you my head is expanding every second

[proper stump]

I'm simplifying that to a rectangle

[proper stump]

Also yah I joined your Surface n the more recent one

It's in the Omni Drive but I'm working on culling unused stuff rn so it's not optimized

[tired sparrow]

Use seernixes new port btw

[elder arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/oppenheimer-oppenheimer-movie-oppenheimer-meme-oppenheimer-stare-opps-gif-15308305416107220221

[tired sparrow]

Shut up

Kills you

[warped iron]

Why

[tired sparrow]

Idk it’s the morning

[torpid dock]

My animation render was crashing so instead of dumb shit like " optimization " I wrote a script to restart the render when it inevitably runs out of memory

https://tenor.com/view/top-gear-the-grand-tour-gif-24931916

[proper stump]

That is seernixes port unless he updated it since last year

[proper stump]

The bullshit of having half your memory stolen because double the amount of faces needed are being rendered at minimum is why I’m making the Omni pack… for the peace and solidarity of the community not having to do random bs just to animate a shit post

Ladies and gentlemen… if you vote for me I promise to bring back the best of the SL packs we’ve seen… models that’re scaled correctly with no need for 32gbs of ram just to boot up surface zone… I’ll bring peace and justice pack to this lovely community… one model at a time

[tired sparrow]

She updated it just recently

@proper stump

[tired sparrow]

I forget to save sometimes and I just re animate whole scenes

[trail estuary]

what a bombshell

[azure valve]

its still the same sign

[proper stump]

Like how recently?

[tired sparrow]

Just lighting changed not signs

[tired sparrow]

like yesterday

Cause I bullied her to do it

[azure valve]

just lighting, noooo

[proper stump]

https://tenor.com/view/oppenheimer-cillian-murphy-cillian-murphy-peaky-blinders-gif-1787947313354313976

You’ve got to be shitting me

[tired sparrow]

Nope

[proper stump]

Does it have the landscape?

[tired sparrow]

Join her server

[tired sparrow]

She couldn’t find it

[proper stump]

Then that’s a w for me-

I’ll just import everything

[tired sparrow]

You have it?

[proper stump]

And start a new

[proper stump]

Yes it’s in windop’s one

But it’s not propaly scaled

[azure valve]

how shfiting?

[proper stump]

So I had to manually adjust

[proper stump]

Lemme see if I can sort something out with her

[torpid dock]

It's not an SL animation, also:

You can just do this shit, the mode cannot stop you from porting all the models to rigify, fixing the scaling and manually deleting all unnecessary faces

Land of the free baby, I WILL MOG ALL I WANT WITH MY SUPERB TIMEWASTING SKILLS

[torpid dock]

Bro... autosave?

[tired sparrow]

Sometimes auto save doesn’t save my last state I was in

Either ways most of the time my animation ends up better when re animating

Like my current one

I had lost the first scene

And then I remember the old one sucked ass

[torpid dock]

Yeah 2nd time's usually better because you can fix all the things you don't like

I prefer watching my animation for hours at a time to spot all the little mistakes I made

[tired sparrow]

I do that aswell

[torpid dock]

That's why I also sometimes post here, y'all are really good at finding the smallest fucking mistakes

[tired sparrow]

Yknow how many times I’ve listened to fucking eco friendly lightbulbs

I had to mute it at one point

[azure valve]

you know they say to make something, wait a day or two after you've "finished" it, then go back to it

[tired sparrow]

It got so annoying

[torpid dock]

Listened to what

[tired sparrow]

The animation I posted

The song

That plays in the back

[torpid dock]

Ah yeah, I'd go insane too

[tired sparrow]

Doesn’t work in mobile for some reason

[torpid dock]

Discord moment

Restart your app the new version just does it sometimes

[tired sparrow]

I’ve done it a lot

I tried saving the video

[torpid dock]

Shoutout discord for somehow making their app consistently worse

[tired sparrow]

And it just had no audio

[torpid dock]

You'll just have to use your PC then lol

[tired sparrow]

Yeah until I post the video in yt

Nuh uh store all your animations locally so wendigoon has something to uncover while doing an hour long documentary on your life

do yk how to shade smooth objects

no

wait ik i think

right click then shade smooth

yeah

but if it fucks up your shading

you gota do one more thing

go to this little triangle on your side panel

turn on auto smooth

[limber ocean]

thanks

[halcyon sparrow]

np

side note : if you are working with a sub divison modifier dont use auto smooth

[torpid dock]

Why not

Mr worldwide, Mr 305, we gotta fuck up the English language

he looks like a strong young man

god i want to learn sculpting so bad but ik how long it takes

[bronze field]

ye It crossed my mind

[halcyon sparrow]

its not neccasary and can mess up shading by sharpening odd angles

se how here its messing it up

unless you turn your autosmooth really high but at that point you would just have it off lol

[tired sparrow]

well

it depends

it needs to be adjusted to what you're working on

thank you froggy for the five gifted, can we get some W's in the chat for froggy?

What is art

[elder arrow]

since when has death corridor become a meme?

[halcyon sparrow]

It is an objective form of communication that always has limited interpretations and is purely up the the creator to decide its purpose/ meaning

[bronze field]

this is how it goes so far

[halcyon sparrow]

Very nice

are yoy plannng on adding camera shake

[bronze field]

it's just a blockout so far, but you get the idea

[bronze field]

ofc

it's just to get the idea across

[halcyon sparrow]

Yeah I understand

[bronze field]

I need to work on timing still

[halcyon sparrow]

I like th e way it plays out, only thing is

Yeah

[bronze field]

then get into the details

[halcyon sparrow]

I was ago it to say pacing is a bit fast

Although if that’s the style you want it’s all good

[bronze field]

Im figuring the pacing out along the way

usually

get the keyframes set up and then by try and error get the good looking timing

[halcyon sparrow]

I used to do it like that when I dabbled in animation

lol

[bronze field]

ye I guess it's a matter of practice

to do it correctly on the first try

althought as far as I've seen animators do several layers of animations

to get things right

[halcyon sparrow]

Ask windop 🔥

He’s basically D1 in animation

[bronze field]

overall or some particular bits

[halcyon sparrow]

Just the scene where he backs up after shutting the door imo

He goes pretty fast for walking backwards

[bronze field]

got it

[halcyon sparrow]

Are you planning to do sound effects after?

[bronze field]

to make it pop it would be nice to do that

althought im not a sound designer

[halcyon sparrow]

Oh Alr

[bronze field]

I will most likely just steal some already made stuff and bash it together

credit it ofc

[halcyon sparrow]

👍

Good luck with the animation

[bronze field]

ye thanks

I would like to finish it in next few days

just a short scene

[bronze field]

I played around with the timing of the camera

and eased out the sharp movement a little

I will most likely make the camera character a janitor of somekind

so he will have hands and body

[pine geode]

making the scary trollface's fingers like grip the doors one by one could be cool

like each finger quickly grips one after another, starting from pinky ending at index

[bronze field]

ye for sure

althought I would leave that for the detail heavy part of the animating

rn it's bare bones

[pine geode]

yeh just a suggestion for the future

lookin cool so far

[bronze field]

Im thinking about extending it to the point of him getting out of the door and slicing the spectator

just an short clip

[tired sparrow]

Use camera shakily for more realistic movement

[bronze field]

ye for sure

[azure valve]

holy moly

[bronze field]

Im calling it a day for today

hopefully gonna finish the scene during the weekend

[pine geode]

awesome

im trying to make a 106 box that makes sense

the cylinders on the sides and bottom keep the box afloat and stable whilst the top has a lid that must be magnetically removed with a system similar to those magnet that pick up cars in scrap yards
