Toy Soldier Kelsey

Comic: Rocking Along page 1

First page of a comic and story. Hope you all enjoy!

Rocking horse animation

First stab at an animated rocking horse animation. I think I made it too smooth and need to weight the times on the end.

Rocking horse base

So fun fact. The rocking arms I was using in the previous pics are actually bows from a crossbow enlarged and repurposed. They look good, but even if it’s invisable the hand guard at the front is still there. So when Kelsey tries to let dad animate it rocking smoothly back and forth it works… for the first ten frames, then rises up suddenly into the air like it’s possessed before tilting forward in a impersonation of a roller coaster.

Doing some digging I found an actu...

Rocking horse costume

So I’m working with the rocking horse costume and trying to figure out which works better. Actual cloth or sculpted wooden clothing. I think I’m partial to the wooden clothing myself.

Rocking horse TF

An idea I’ve loved ever since I saw a drawing of it on naga’s den a long while back, but never thought to try it myself. First stab at making it and it turned into an elf.

Housewife Drone 02

It cooks. It cleans! It obeys every command without hesitation!

It’s squishable and squashable, waterproof and washable! And you can have one for as little as $999.99!

Housewife drone 01

Don’t you just Hate it when your sweetie pie gets all huffy when you tell her to clean up? Well we can help out with that. Now introducing the new Lilith-tech housewife drone! It’s as simple as injecting the nanites into your loved one and watch them be converted into the perfect household utility drone! Doesn’t matter if they’re male or female, they’ll be perfect for their new assigned role and obey your every command without hesitation!

Casino Bunny Bot 04

And now we wait for someone to come in looking to free one of them. Putting their humanity and freedom on the line to save their friend or lover from their fate serving our little casino.

But just remember. The house always wins.

Casino Bunny Bot 03

And now you start to see how we are so profitable. You don’t need a steady stream of unlucky gamblers. You only need one with friends. Here we see Jennifer, who came in looking for her girlfriend Rachel, and so on and so forth. They literally just line up for you!

Casino Bunny Bot 02

Oh dear. It seems Rachel’s friend Cindy came looking for her. When she was shown that Rachel was now an obedient bunny drone she was given a choice. Leave, or play for her freedom. Cindy bravely put her own humanity on the line for her friend… and promptly realized she had no idea how to play back jack. Now the two of them are together again, even if they’re now obedient bunny bots obediently serving drinks to the guests.

Casino Bunny Bot 01

Come down to the TF casino. Where you can bet with more than just money…

Loose too much and you belong to the house. Just like Rachel here. She just knew the next have was going to break her unlucky streak and win it big for her. Turns out sge was wrong and now serves the casino as one of the many robotic bunny bots, here to serve your every need.

No internet

Hey all. Sorry for the lack of posts. I got back from nyc and have a few renders started, but the night before last we had some tornadoes go through the area and have not had internet since then. Will keep you posted and hope to be back online soon.

Reflections of self 02

A second set of costumes applied and rendered. Then spliced with the first set to make a more fast paced scene. I might do a third but I feel the speed would be too fast.

I enjoy this because I can look at each costume and change and relate it to myself, or a part of myself. Something I’ve experienced or shared and wanted to share with others. So thank you all for supporting me and my little artistic wondering to try this. :)

Desk toy for Tim

"How are you today, Tim?" Kelsey typed.

"Oh I'm ok, just bored at work." Tim replied, sitting at his desk.

"I wish i could help you." Kelsey replied in turn.

She was quite startled as a disembodied voice announced "Your wish has been granted!" before Kelsey could do anything she found her vision fading to black. When she awoke she was oddly already standing... and moving? with her limited vision she found she was marching straight toward a wall. At the last seco...

Reflections of self 01

Something I tried making inspidered by Into the Spiderverse. Each form a reflection of myself. I still need to finish the set with two more forms.

This is the first series. I’m going to add more and splice them in to make the changes more rapid.

Maidbot march still frame

Frame 4 of 275 frames used in the new Maidbot marching animation.

Maidbot march 001

I'm happy with the march animation, but guess who forgot to hide her lighting blocks! Please ignore the giant white block in the mirror reflection. You see nothing!

Maidbot 003

"I. Am. A. Maid. Bot."

No no I'm not!

"I. Am. A. Maid. Bot."

please let me stop repeating myself!

"I. Am. A. Maid. Bot."

It pops into my head every ten seconds, I can't stop thinki-

"I. Am. A. Maid. Bot."

Bike

With a roar the engine cut through the quiet of the night, I turned to see a sleek black three-wheeled motorcycle pull to a stop by the entrance of the club. From my spot guarding the door I had an excellent view of the rider as she sat up from an almost horizontal position, her clothing nothing but a skintight black latex catsuit and her head obscured under a black helmet. The lithe form rose up from her vehicle and stretched her arms, giving everyone watching a show thanks to the catsuit so...

Maidbot 02

"Yes. Owner. I. Have. Brought. You. Your. Pen. So. You. May. Sign. My. Contract. To. Make. This. Maidbot. Your. Property. Forever."

Maidbot 01

She stared, as always, ever forward. She couldn't blink, couldn't turn her gaze away, couldn't stop herself from staring at herself as she obediently dusted the mirror as commanded by her owner, every hour, on the hour.

She hated seeing herself like this. Silver skin, exaggerated features designed to make her form sexy, even if she now was a glorified rumba. An automaton programmed to clean as commanded. She had never dreamed when she had taken that loan from a shady figure that faili...

A relaxing Breakfast 02

Just a normal breakfast. No stress. No worries. Just good coffee and even better company. Wait. does this seem familiar?

A relaxing breakfast

Just a normal breakfast. No stress. No worries. Just good coffee and even better company.

It was too late

Oh dear. Seems the poor maid’s attempt to try and clear we’re too little too late. Now I seem to have a new role as sexy figurine!

Maid back to work

Eager to not be seen as lazy, or get transformed for her laziness, the maid hops back to work.

Maid caught laying down on the job

When you buy a windup maid doll, you expect it to at least not be lazy, but somehow you got the special one and she has the attention span of a goldfish...

Resting and relaxing

Hey all, sorry I've not been active here on in discord. Ive caught a cold/flu bug and it is kicking my plastic ass. So I've been trying to sleep it off and today I can actually think straight, so hopefully recovery is near!

2d diorama close up

A close up of myself as the segmented toy, you can see how the parts are connected by the metal pins and flattened.

2D toy soldier animation loop

too large to share as a gif, but the full animation rendered at 2k and looped, might try to add sound effects and music later, maybe sounds of a mall with people walking around, but for now, proof of concept completed!

Trapped in a 2d diorama

Kelsey panicked, she tried to move her legs, her arms, anything, but it was no good. Her form felt compressed and alien, her body and limbs just flattened sheets of painted metal connected by faintly squeaking metal pins. She couldn't control her arms or legs, they now were connected by thin rods to the mechanism that pulled her back and forth across the christmas-y diorama endlessly.

Her right leg was planted firmly, connected to the track by a spinning gear, her left leg however swu...
