Been working on recoloring the King Lion Daisenki book. So far the cover, open cover, and story page are recolored. I'll work more on the book later today.

Yay got the closed cover and story pages done for King Lion. I've also cut the stickers for the story page and cover as well.
I'll have to work on recoloring it next.

Got the henshin open version done. I'll have to do the story page next and then the cover.
2021-01-30 18:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post
The opened vector for the last page is done. Now I'll have to move on to the less opened version.

Got the middle section done on the fully opened king lion. Gotta work on the end now. After that's done I'll have to do the semi-opened end and middle, the story page, and then the closed cover. So many steps.
This guy is the opposite of Dragonic Knight. While this is allllll vector DK was just a frame for the stickers.

Got the vector for the open cover down. I'm working on the fully opened version right now. Have a lil work on the middle done as well.

Saber Flash Belt updated to work better on Ruffle. Now doesn't use the layer effects except for on the Swordriver blade details.
2021-01-25 16:33:00 +0000 UTC View PostGoing through and redoing the books to work without filters. This will allow the books to have colors on Ruffle. I currently have a few covers and the backers done. I'll have to finish up the covers, move on to the open covers and story pages. It'll take some time but I'm grinding it out.

.98: Dragonic Knight vector added. Jaou standby added.
--Features to Come--

Recolored the book so I'll move that over to flash and put it together with the stickers.

Here's a snapshot of the work in progress for Dragonic Knight. Funny thing is I haven't even done the recoloring process but I moved forward to work on the stickers since theyre different this time around. I've been going through removing the grey in the images so when folded up the stickers can properly smush together.
I'm having to play with how this works and I'll be changing the vector to help with this. Mainly I'm going to be changing where the overlap happens between the panels. I...

Lost most of the weekend to feeling sick. Thankfully it seems to just be really high cedar and not the terrible alternative.
However, I got the first two frames done for Dragonic Knight. I'll probably rest some more today, but it's getting there.
2021-01-19 13:03:53 +0000 UTC View Post
Knocked out the vector for the opened version of the Dragonic Knight cover. So the opened and closed covers are done.
The good news is the rest of the book isn't too, too much. The majority of the rest of the book is going to be the expanded knight scene. I'll use photoshop to pull that bit off but the frame around it needs to be vectored out.

.973: Jaou Dragon vector added.

--Features On Hold--
Here's a look at the completed dragon vectors. I'm working on recoloring every version of the book now.
I may also have to go back and redo the coloring for the regular WRB since the layer effects don't work on the emulator right now. Might do it.

Working on the vectors for the dragons inside of the book right now. The frame of the book is done so once the dragons are done I'm off to recolor.
The fully opened references are strangely disproportionate from the closed and story page references. The spine height and the book length are different on the fully opened version even though there are clear points of reference to pull off of. For example there's purple around the edges that remains consistent from closed to story to henshi...

edit: story page now complete. Will work on the henshined version next.

Finished up the opened version of the cover and added the details to the spine. Again, not a fan of the plastic grid but man did that area need details.
2021-01-12 12:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post
Finished up the vector for the cover for Jaou Dragon. Probably gonna add more to the spine. Didn't like the structural plastic pieces on the toy but this is too bland.
2021-01-11 12:01:02 +0000 UTC View Post
Vector for the Dragonic Knight cover is bout done. I'll definitely have to work on the colors though. Kinda bouncing between DK and Jaou right now. Started with DK since it's closer to the standard book.
Jaou's spine is definitely... rougher than the normal books. Most of the spine area has the nasty structural grid front and center. I'm probably gonna simplify that or just smooth it out altogether since it's likely a limitation from producing the toy at the cost they're goin' for.

.972: Dragonic Knight beta added. Vector, background and mark for the menu icon to be added later. No video for this one since it's a beta.
2021-01-09 01:11:22 +0000 UTC View PostWorking on the beta for Dragonic Knight and man I can't tell you how much the lack of sound rips has slowed down the process of making it. I spend so much time just trying to find better sounds.
The sound rips were in such an order that I knew what went with the toys and it sounded good. Mannnnnnnnnn.

.85: ZI-O Trinity vector added. Also added Geiz and Woz's weapons to Trinity's weapon menu.
--Features to Come--
- Weapons
- Zikan Jaclaw
- Saikyo Girade
- Ride Heisaber
Didn't sleep last night so I finally finished up the vector for poor ol' Trinity. I have the file done and the video exporting, but I'll still have to do the thumbnail and upload it to Youtube before release attached the flash file for y'all to party with for now.
Think I might go try to pass out for at least a lil.
2021-01-03 12:06:56 +0000 UTC View PostLooks like this will be ZI-O month. ZI-O and the Heisaber were voted at the top so I'll be working on those along with Saber.
Means I've gotta knock out the Trinity vector, eh?
Saber will get the big books in beta first and I'll move on from there. Saiko's out so I'll have to work on him as well.

2020-12-28 14:36:20 +0000 UTC View PostHey y'all,
Man Jaou's been weird to figure out. Had to find a workaround to get it going how it is rn on the swordriver. I also have been working on the vector for it while getting the code figured out.
I decided to put the Boosters on hold since they're the only accessories right now that I feel like could be left out without people's heads exploding. Obviously I can't miss on a Driver and since Saber's made what would normally be just weapons into Drivers I've been having to go ...

.971: Jaou Dragon beta added. No video for this one since it's a beta. I know the Seiken Swordriver henshin isn't exactly right, but it was interesting to get this far.
I'm officially putting the boosters on hold for now. I have so many drivers and stuff to do for this season. Normally the non-swordriver rider's drivers, cept Calibur, would've be...
