WIP 03 - Emma frost animation is ready
Added 2025-04-21 10:15:41 +0000 UTCThe animation is ready!!! Now the only thing left is the facial animation, and as always I'll wait for the audio work to be finished so I can sync the animation!
WIP (<- Just click here)
In this project I learned a few new things and improved my workflow a bit. I practiced with different timings and variations, not just in the animation but in the overall rhythm too, the animation has a beginning, middle, and end! I also learned and improved my work with Flip Fluids, which I used to simulate cum. The only problem, and what delayed this project a lot, was the baking time. This addon takes a really long time to bake, to the point where I spent an entire day just tweaking and waiting for bakes. You make a change and then have to wait 1 to 3 hours just to see the result, and in the long term that's not good.
I tried using Houdini in this animation to simulate the fluid but realized I need to learn more about it. I know how to do large scale fluid simulations, but not small scale ones, and in my tests I couldn't make the small simulation work. I'll study Houdini more so that eventually I can replace Flip Fluids with it, since Houdini is way better for simulations.
I also improved my understanding of lighting, before I was struggling a bit with it because I would just do the basics and didn’t know where to go from there. In this animation I took some time to study lighting concepts again and what makes good lighting! I'll keep practicing and getting better with time. Thanks for waiting, and thank you so much for supporting me!!
This is the flat render without any post-processing.
