What I'm Working On #032

Hello and happy holidays! I'm back with another quick update on how I've been spending my modding time. This week, it's more and more animations for the Regency Update. Instead of just showing a couple of pictures, this time I thought it would be fun to share a bit of my process and how the animations get made. Other than that, I've continued working on a lot of the coding and bugfixes, so I hoped this would be more interesting to share.

Have a lovely weekend, and more soon! ~ JS

You've come so far! You're obviously very dedicated to have progressed so quickly :3 If you're curious, the orthodox method is similar, but rather than starting with the feet and moving up, you set the entire body at each frame and tweak as you go; this helps the body feel like it's moving as a singular figure to avoid any wonkiness between body parts (which isn't really a problem you seem to have, so good on you! :D) Two resources I HIGHLY recommend for any aspiring animator, self-taught or otherwise, are the book The Animator's Survival Kit and Adam Turnbull's website, Animator's Resource Kit, where he's been stockpiling loads and loads of stuff for animators to use, lots of them free!

Oh this is really cool to see. I was expecting it to look like rocket science. Obviously it's still complicated but I was worried I wouldn't be able to follow but it was super streamlined. Cool!!

This has been an amazing and interesting watch into your progress. I always wanted to animate but there isn’t a lot of tutorials out there and wouldn’t know where to start. So watching this has been really nice! Thank you for the work you do!
