Very Quick Update! - May 25, 2024

Just wanted to say that I'm on the final stretch of the Sophitia video, I'm aiming for tonight to release. Just had to straight out some clipping issues and have about 50% of the sound left to go. Also, had to find suitable background music was annoying to find that match the mood that I was aiming for. I'll have another update as soon as I start rendering the final video. Thank you for your patience and more is on the way! -Conflict

Update: May 21, 2024

More progress from the upcoming Sophitia video! I'm doing the finishing touches as the clean up animation phase is nearly done. After looking over the entire outline, I'm very happy with how the video is shaping up! Above is small look at my favorite sequence from the video, I hope you'll like it as well. Thank you as always and more is on the way! - Conflict.

Update: May 20, 2024

Here is another peak at Sophitia video action! As you can see, Kratos' loincloth thing is not able to be animated, which is annoying but I'll have to look past that. Hopefully, can be distracted by the choreography! I want to finish by Friday and I'm really hard focusing that to make that happen because I took too long on this Special Gallery video again. I'll have another update tomorrow with more progress and another GIF. I won't make the GIF reveal too much though as I do want the element ...

Update: May 18, 2024

Sorry about the pause in updates, but I needed to step away from the computer. I had to redo small sections of the video for quality issues and the Kratos model's face flexes are a pain. Sound has been started on the finished animated sections and I'm nearly done with clean up frames on the last section.

In the end, it's little inconveniences that make me want to move onto SFM. Granted I'll need to learn the program, but I'm sure it won't be too much trouble. For the mean time, Gmod is ...

Update: May 14, 2024

Okay, so I feel asleep, but here is the next update! Nearly done with the facial expressions and animations is pretty much done. Given how the Kratos model is put together, it has been very meticulous in making sure his poses are complete junk, but it works.

I'm still trying to smooth out scenes and clean up movements because the animation process was janky for what ever reason, maybe it was the map, entities, or lighting, but I'm not 100% sure.

For the time being, I'll be work...

A Quick Update: May 13, 2024

Just wanted to post a quick update on the Sophitia video. Long story short, without getting into details, Mother's Day weekend was very draining in terms of family matters which kept me from getting any real progress done. It was nothing serious, but still something I had to look into!

That being said, I'll have another update a little later tonight before I go to bed with progress as I want to finish the overall facial keyframes done at the very least. Then hopefully I can begin sound...

Update: May 9, 2024

So, I tried to get it out today, but I was feeling burnout was near, so I paced myself. Despite that, I'm roughly 80-85% percent done with animating and have the completed chunks of animation already being worked on in terms of sfx. I think will expedite the process of launching videos since animating can be strenuous and editing sound it much more lax than accurately articulating precise poses and key frames and such.

Also, I still want to stream an animating session so people can get ...

A Quick Question: Cinematography

As I'm still working on the Sophitia video, A question came to mind that I had wanted to ask. In terms of cinematography, what are some examples of (mixed fighting, headscissors, etc..) scenes that were made "hotter" by there camera angle, sound design, or another aspect of movie making that could possibly make my content better or more enjoyable.

I don't necessarily want to make a Scorsese film and I'm completely aware of my videos cater too, but I want to continue to push what makes a...

Update: April 30, 2024

Here is a little GIF of the upcoming Special Gallery video! I like how this is turning out especially as I'm trying new camera angles and fight scene beats in this one. I've gone and really looked into fantasy 90's shows and their choreography and pacing, specifically Xena: Warrior Princess, Hercules (Kevin Sorbo), and other fantasy shows from that era. Even some Buffy The Vampire Slayer!

The GIF above is a example of what I'm trying to do with the course of action and really make it li...

Update: April 28, 2024

Here is another update on the Sophitia video, this time with more conceptual poses and angles! I know I'm going to have her staple throws and attacks, but I did want to explore other move she could possibly have in her arsenal. The difficult part about this is actually deciding what NOT to use in the choreography as opposed to what to put in. Personally, I think this is a good problem to have!

I'll have another update soon as I want to hard focus this and see how close I can get to fini...

Update: April 26, 2024

Sorry about no update in awhile, I wanted to finish the latest commission and look into the Nintendo debacle would affect me in any sort of way. Some authors just removed some of there models and others remove their entire workshop items! Fortunately, the model that I'm using for current and future videos are safe.

 I also had to rework some of the intro to the Sophitia video. There was a lot of dialogue and was almost the main focus, so I cut it to the minimum for the sake of the ...

A Surprise Special Gallery Clip!: April 19, 2024

So, I wasn't lying when I said I've been on an animating marathon! (Health is doing great! No worries there!) My drive seems to be revitalized when I work on personal projects as opposed to stepping away from animating. I don't understand why, but I can't argue with results. Here, D.va is about to reenter her mech when Reaper ambushes her, but she is just as deadly outside of her machine than within. Enjoy! - Conflict

Bonus Content: Mona Vs Scaramouche with Sound!

Here is the Mona GIF now with sound! The editing software I've been using got a audio update and a better explination of how sound stacked in the editor, so hopefully this sound much more balanced. I've been on a animating tear as of late and will continue to work on many projects. I have a update on the Sophitia video and maybe other information that I won't know about until tomorrow. Thank you again for supporting me and letting me continue to animate and there is more on the way! - Conflic...

Update: April 15, 2024

A little late on this update but I decided rest would take priority! Here are few more concept/model testing poses from the upcoming Kratos vs Sophitia Special Gallery video. Much like 2B, Sophitia perfectly fits into the Headscissor/femdom category and other content like this.

 I'll have a few posts today as I finish the Mona GIF with sound today for the "Fierce" tier and release one of the Sophitia QTE for free to also help envision what this Special Gallery will be like! Soon, I...

Quick Update: April 13, 2024

Sorry about the late update, I just wanted to finish my other projects before hard focusing on the Sophitia video. I finished the dialogue opening and have started the choreography of the fighting portion. I also didn't think a still of the characters talking mid sentence would be a good picture, so I arranged the one above to give a small look at the kind of struggle Kratos will be up against! I'll have another update tomorrow with the current progress and after that, I'll have the Mona GIF ...

Quick Update: April 5, 2024

Just a little update on the Kratos Vs Sophitia video. I've started on the intro scene which has a pretty decent chunk of dialogue and set up for the video. I've also been working with the volumetric lighting of the scene and might even have to animating floating lights, but that's a easy fix!

Fun Fact: The script/outline/dialogue is 7 pages long! Granted, Half is voice line references so I can find the lines faster when it come to the sound and the other half is the Main choreography b...

Update: April 1, 2024

I took a few days to myself and began animating Sophitia Vs Kratos. I don't want another long wait for the Special Gallery again so I figured I get a head start on this. During this, I'll be working on Shiki Pt. 2 and the QTEs for the Morrigan Pt.3 as well, but they won't be priority.

Above are a couple of stills that were my favorite from the conceptual stage of this video. I was actually at looking into older fight scene that are shot longer than today's action scene with less cuts a...

Special Gallery Video: The Castle - Part 3

Here is the 3rd and final part of the Morrigan videos. The full combined videos with be out a little later today followed by the outline photo set for the "Light" tier. I'll admit that this took too much time for me to make and I've always intented for the Special Gallery video to be out every month, month and a half at the most. I will take a day or two to fix my sleep schedule and get a head start on the Special Gallery winner. Thank you as always, let me know what you think, and there is m...

Real Quick Update: March 28, 2024

Sorry about the delay in the release, I underestimated the sound editing and it took me longer to finish than I thought. As of right now though, the 3rd part is rendering right now and after I upload it to MEGA, I'll have the link posted then. I'm doing the Complete Morrigan video after that only due that will be longer. Again, sorry for the wait on this one and definitely be ahead of future projects. Thank you as always for the support and more is on the way. - Conflict

Quick Update: March 27, 2024

Real quick just wanted to post I'll have the full Morrigan Video out by tonight for the appropriate tiers! Again, sorry about the delay, but I'll be on top of animating (At a healthy rate!) for the future. For the "Light" tier, I'll have the photo set of the outline of the video a little after the release of the video. By that time, the poll for the next Special Gallery video will be decided (It's close, you still have time to vote if you haven't already!) Thank you for the continued support ...

Special Gallery Theme Poll: March 21, 2024

So, here is the choices for the next Special Gallery video after the Morrigan video. To reiterate, each Tier will receive their appropriate content based off the the winning theme. I've chosen some options that I believe are not only easy for me to find soundtracks, voice line, and sound effects for, but also be something that you'll all like as well. I've also decided to keep the remaining choices and replace the winning choice with another option for future . This will save time since I hav...

An Update: March 20, 2024

Sorry about the lull in content, I've been recovering from being malnourished. (Again) I had been really trying to avoid doing that again but due to medical problems, I sometimes don't notice the changes/signals my body sends me and I won't eat or drink until I'm nearly incapacitated. I realized now it's due to me basically overworking the past week and I'm still clearly behind. I'll have to push back the release of the completed Morrigan video a few more days for the sake of my health. I hat...

Update: March 18, 2024

A lot of progress has been made towards finishing the Morrigan video. I believe I'll have a 3 - 5 second preview posted on DeviantArt for a little preview of what the 3rd part will entail. Again, this will released as the entire "The Castle" trilogy all together. I will put a MEGA link to the appropriate Tiers with a lowered resolution. That is done to save space on everyone's storage (Mine included!) and it will be easier to stream through MEGA, especially with a lowered bit rate. (That's is...

Morrigan Update: March 17, 2024

Still chugging along with the Morrigan video. It's looking, at the recent rate I'm going at, I'll probably begin sound Sunday night-ish. Would have been sooner but had to rearrange frames lighting prop for frame rate's sake. Here are some stills featuring Morrigan this time around in a headscissor position I've been neglecting from posing for whatever reason. I do have to have to go over the last 2k frames soon Pt.3 looking smooth and not patchy with resolution differences. Thank you for bein...

Update: March 14, 2024

Another update on the upcoming Morrigan video with GIF and a few more poses I liked from my last animating session. Gmod had a recent update and kind of set me back in terms of moving forward. Lighting always seems to change with every update and that definitely matters when it comes to frame rate of animating, and really affects which map to choose because that also has major effect and the end result of a video.  Granted I'm going to at least try and start sound on Sunday, but it may b...

Update: March 11, 2024

Here are a few more poses from the conceptual phase of planning out the video. I know Ivy is more a controlling fighter as opposed to being light on her feet, but I did want to show her weight and strength in moves that are more akin to a fragile speedster. I had also wanted to ask everyone as I thought of this idea animating: Would you be interest if I started to stream my animation sessions? Granted, it would usually be me working on something that would be free for everyone, a commission, ...

Update: March 10, 2024

Another update on the Morrigan video, this time with a GIF. Just wanted to show off a tiny bit of improvement in terms of secondary animation. I eventually want muscle, thighs, "buns", and more precise body movements to really sell the exertion of an attack or stranglehold! Of course, I'm limited by Gmod, but that doesn't necessarily stop me. I'll have another update tomorrow with more progress on the Morrigan video. Don't worry, I won't be spoiling the video or certain special choreography m...

Update: March 9, 2024

So, here are some more conceptual poses that I use to really picture what I want to happen from a "move set" angle. I know Ivy will have a dominant presence and attitude during the fight, so her attacks and maneuvers will mimic that. I also tend to forget how great the Soul Calibur models are for animating and posing. I'll have daily updates and will be open to any questions, comments, or ideas during that time. I have a few ideas for the future of interacting with all of you as I get closer ...

Update: March 8, 2024

Sorry about the delay on progress, I just had my apartment fumigated and couldn't animated due to the chemicals kills the bugs. Despite that, commissions were finished and I want to full focus on the Morrigan video. I'm aiming for next Saturday, but that is if everything is going according to plan. Above is another concept pose that might not make the finished video but it will speed up any quick reference(s) for poses that WILL be in the final version. I'll have another update tomorrow as I'...
