YATRA - 'Rider' Finished & Scene WIPS

Assets and scenes finally flowing through now! Although I'm still struggling to find background/matte painting artists with much spare time, the Marvel MCU machine consumes all talent!

Attached video shows some of the scene workflow with more coming soon. Also someone remind me not to give characters beards in the future! I'm happy with the look but when it comes to animating it can be painful.

Some good news on the music front for those digging the synth vibes. 'Power Glove', the artists behind the tracks I've been using and perhaps best known for the soundtrack for Far Cry - Blood Dragon, are keen on the project and collaborating down the line :)

Completed 'Southlon Rider' model below. Mesh & sculpt by the legit, 'HoOman Raad'. Textures & materials by myself. The Rider just needs something to ride now...

YATRA - 'Rider' Finished & Scene WIPS

Comments

Wow, really cool to see the immense change from scene to scene and how it all comes together. I love looking at the behind the scenes aspect, thanks for putting it all together! I loved seeing the comment text as reminders haha!

Sam Bottoms

Cheers man! Yep! Hopefully some bespoke synth goodness for the project :) Haha! I love some polygonal PS2 cutscenes, ah makes me want to take on some game projects...

Astartes

Thanks man :) To be honest I've never delved into Dune much before this latest movie. But through Dune I did recently discover Jodorowsky and his Metabarons comics, I think that would be awesome untapped IP to adapt :D

Astartes

This is aces stuff, seeing the model go full render with physics is super cool, as is seeing the work flow and the steps you go through. The animation is amazingly crisp as always, and though they look really cool I can imagine a beard to be an absolute pain. Love how the pre-viz deadass looks like a PS2 cutscene, and the placeholder text genuinely made me laugh. And hol’up! Genuinely working with the folks from the Blood Dragon music?!!?! That’s a amazing! Love this synth stuff so that’s great news

Cannot wait for this!!

James Grim-Dark

Impressive

Paul fon Stein

This is going to be so good.

Hoh boy, this is going to be so rad when it comes out!

DutchieD00dle

Amazing work!

Erwin Doppler

Syama, have you ever thought about how you visualize the realm of Dune ? I think, your style suits perfect =)

Smile in the Void

Wow, this continues to look amazing, I'm excited every time you post!

CommissarGurke

This shit is amazing. Taking your time to do these makes the end product fucking amazing everytime.

If only I had a mocap suit for horses like some studios have :D

Astartes

Horses must be difficult to animate. I read interviews from mangaka and animators that explain that how their legs work almost make it impossible to draw.

Now, in the right setting, that could be a perk. Might make face-huggers easier to animate, they just jump right off on their own, without any effort on your part! xD

My Blind Third Eye

Yep, but on one of the more interesting upcoming shots instead of beardman just walking around :)

Astartes

Unfortunately the time is often equally spent on technical problems like the hair detaching from his head instead of just making it look good XD

Astartes

Hell yeah

BDA013

Any chance of a time lapse like the previous Astartes ones? 😁

Davey Perron

Looking great! Love dissecting these WIPs .

Davey Perron

Holy crap, that's some S tier animation. I LOVE how good the hair looks, and can't imagine how long it must have taken. Stunning work!

My Blind Third Eye

amazing work!

Noah Catan

This looks amazing!
