Yoroi Helmet Thingy

Started this for the SpartanFest (Local Con) this weekend. Wasn't very happy with the sticker version so refined it a bit. Gonna turn it into T-Shirts for the teespring store and limited editions on 2022. Thought of it more as a tattoo. 

I'm also taking a break from illustration commissions this week to rest a bit and work some more on music sheanigans so I hope to post something either this or next weekend.

Hope everyone's having a great week so far! 2021-11-10 17:01:33 +0000 UTC View Post

Destiny Commission WIP

Hey everyone! Sorry I've been a so quiet this month, been busy with commissions and life stuff to get the money for the PC but I was able to get the money so I'll get back to post more often again. I've also been preparing for a small con next week here in Mexico city so I haven't been home a lot during my afternoons. 

This is one of the COVID commissions back from august, want to finish it this weekend.

Welcome and thank you new Patrons! Hope everyone's...

MORE MUSHROOM ART + Grinding for a PC Build

Hey everyone! Been grinding a bit with my illustration commissions to get the rest of the money for my PC. I tested one last week but it wasn't what I expected so lost a couple of days setting up everything again, my laptop also died for a couple of days and lost a bunch of progress in some projects but not a big deal (so far). This month's patreon money will go directly into this PC build which sadly because of import costs and the still shitty parts situation will be like 3k but it'll allow...

Bunny suit cortana 2.0

Wasn't very happy with how the first one turned out and deleted it the same day I posted it. As you've been able to see I've been hella busy so I didn't have much time to come back to it and redraw it but a HaloCon is happening here next month and I'll be taking some prints of this with me then. Much happier with the face but now I gotta figure out how to color it again.

Rogue Eclipse Formerly Known as Arklight MT WIP

So for copyright reasons we had to change the name of one of the games I've been working on but a trailer should be dropping soon so I'm reworking the main theme to match the new tracks that I have yet to post here owo

Fallout Missouri OST - Vault 60 (MP3)

More HaloxFallout music for that Fallout project. The references are  quite obvious imo but it's been so long since I did a suspense/horror  track I completely forgot how fun they were to do. This one was tricky  cuz the second part is in 5/4 which is a bit annoying ngl

Hello new Patreons!

Hellow new patreons! And welcome to this small community. We've been growing lately and that's good cuz it means I can spend a bit more time working on personal projects and specially more ATLA stuff, however, this is the spooky month so I'm looking for suggestionsof what to arrange!

Please send your spooky suggestions! Sorry for the lack of posts this week but I've been busy with some NDA stuff :p

Fallout Missouri OST - Sus Strings WIP

more music for the Fallout project I've been working on. Was asked to do something inspired by Suite Autumn and Devils... Monsters... from the Halo CE OST. I haven't started working on the Devils bit but already have a couple of ideas. Also more ATLA music later this month! and I'm looking for spooky suggestions for a special track this month so drop them below!

Deltarune Chapter 2 OST - Faint Courage (MP3)

Experimented a bunch with the dialogue between different timbres and orchestration overall. Should be out next month in every platform! I have a small lofi arrangement planned of another track from the OST but I'll work on my commissions this week so not sure when that'll be done.

well this is turning to be a bit more heroic than expected

Last Agni Kai LoFi BG Commission

Another commission from @daniellblack_ on insta acquired with this month's Patreon income for yer enjoyment.

Lumoria OST - Choir Suite

bunch of choir pieces that are supposed to play at some placews of lumoria ut i forgot where kinda similar to the glue pieces from the halo series 

Lumoria OST - Dreams WIP

vibe for killing grunts and such

Deltarune 2 - Faint Courage WIP

There's so much I love about the Deltarune OST but this melody hit in a lot of spots for me which made me avoid work. This is just a small wip of the firstl half, hopefully I'll be done with it by the end of the week so I can go back to muh commissions.

Dirty pass on a new test of Patreon and Preorder exclusive releases

The idea is to have crazy variations of a bunch of tracks that are only released here and maybe some preorder bonus of upcoming projects. These are not meant to be ingame but I'm still thinking about it.

This is a very rough first pass of a guitar variation Neo and I came up with today since I could finally get up from bed after the worst week I've had in a years. Couldn't get it out of my head so decided to give it a go so we can refine it later.

This would also include the Korra...

Legend Of Korra - Korra & Asami (Lo-Fi) (WAV)

SURPRISE

Another small arrangement that took more than it should. I really enjoy this track and wanted it to be a bit different from my previous lofi arrangements. This is definitely less lofi and more of a Hybrid kinda thing. Already commissioned some artwork for it too I'll be posting soon. This is also part of the 13k subs special! but should be releasing in a month or so.

LUMORIA OST - Harmonice Mundi (MP3)

Can you believe it's been a year since I first posted the sketch for this? Sure took a long ass time to finish. I've decided to post the variants and ingame loops once the final release it's ready but those are also done.

We are already working on some proper artwork for the Lumoria OST too. More soon.

War Torn OST - Winter Of Sorrow (MP3)

Here's the final master of that Nakai piece I posted the other day and as you can see it changed quite a bit.

I also had to come up with some alternate mixes since Nakai asked but it is something I didn't considered when composing it but still managed to pull it off so here's one of the lite mixes, the others will be posted by Nakai in his Patreon and YT eventually :)

Winter Contingency (Evolved) Or The Clickbaity "Anniversary Edition" (MP3)

INSERT GIF OF FRODO SAYING "IT'S DONE" AFTER DESTROYING THE ONE RING

I'm happier with it than what I expected tbh. This and Lone Wolf are some of those tracks that I like so much I don't wanna touch em, but bills need to be paid and it was a nice challenge in all aspects. I feel like I learned a lot about orchestral programming with this one and that there's a clear difference between the before and after, even if it's mainly long sustained notes that also has it's own science to make i...

Avatar: The Lo-Fi Bender - Last Agni Kai (MP3) 13k Special!

So this was supposed to be the 12k Special but looks like I'll get to 13k subs this weekend! Thanks a lot everyone for the support :D The response to the latest version of Last Agni Kai was overwhelming and much bigger than what I expected.

As with the other ATLA LoFi tracks I played with the emotions of the original as well as trying new sonorities and combinations. Has a lot of the violin opening y'all liked so much too.

Name suggestions for this one are welcome too! I already c...

C418 Sweden Test

Surprise! I've been thinking about doing a cover of sweden for a couple of months now after listening to a terrible arrangement and seeing it had like a million views. Still not sure or where I'm going with it but I wnt it to be particularly warm and nostalgic. This is a nice first start though.

Nakai Sorrow Track Sketch

Nakai Covie Canon approached me once again to do more music for his Sangheili comic. This is supposed to be a bit tragic sorrowful track. It's a bit too melodic rn so I may change the second bit to have more orchestral beds instead of a full blown string section. Still quite happy with it since it came up pretty quick compared to other pieces.
