Hm, it's been a while since I've posted anything. I'm still working on Tenkeiteki Tokyo although the last two months were a bit slow, there was a lot of Snooker on the television :lol: Still doing the animation for the intro. The short 2 second ones where the characters do a little dance while their...

I'm beloved! (that is 60 exalted reputations for the few who don't know World of Warcraft) And I've got a screenie to prove it! http://www.fusebloware.com/Pics/Lemma/FuseblowerTheBeloved.jpg And yes : I've named both this lemmasoft account and my site after my World of Warcraft main Gnome (and she w...

I'd love to play a visual novel from the viewpoint of a WW2 commander. Regular strategy games don't really have a story, it's just moving units around like in a chess game, whereas books with the memoirs of commanders offer great stories (like Erwin Rommel's "The Rommel Papers" or Heinz Gu...

Finishing a game.... Ha! I used to think like that when I was a young whippersnapper.

Now I just settle for finishing the intro

After taking your suggestion Fuse and simplifying this design way down, the end result still took 3 hours and it's still rather jerky at 7 frames. :oops: Yes, that's a design that's much easier to animate (by the way : it's 6 frames :) ) The "jerkiness" comes mostly from not using "e...

Hi, I see twelve characters that are very difficult to animate (lots of complicated details). Something as simple as the clock face will become a chore to animate if you have to draw those numbers a hundred times or more from all kinds of angles. Or take those stars on the pants. Of course, you woul...

I don't think humans will be obsolete any time soon. Humans don't serve a purpose, things serve a purpose to humans :D People are still willing to pay millions for paintings. The photo camera didn't change that. The difference is that something that is made by a human took a human person a certain a...

I guess you mean "Panther" ("Panzer" is just the German word for "tank"). Of course, it wasn't officially known as the "Panther". Officially it was known as "Gerät 46", "SdKfz 171" or "PzKpfw V" but the troops in the field gave th...

Hi, I'm sorry but I have to lay this on you : the wheels on that tank are all over the place. Looking at the cupola I'd say you've drawn a PzKpfw IVD (or one of the previous IV's) or a PzKpfw III outfitted with the 7.5cm gun of a IV (the Germans did this after they've upgunned the IV's and were left...

Well, I've changed the axe to a hammer for comic effect but the principle stands :lol: http://www.fusebloware.com/Pics/Lemma/Hammer.gif The thing about anticipation (or "wind up") I talked about is that every action is preceded by an action in the opposite direction. Say you're going to hi...

Kudos for tackling animation! :D Yes, you will put in *many* hours. If you haven't already I would definitely check out Richard Williams' "The Animation Survival Kit". If there's only one book you'll ever gonna own about animation it should be this one. The walks do kinda look stiff. Be su...

Apologies upfront for a long post (vertical-wise) but I do side with Lodratio on this one. Why not go for Western art style instead of copying the Japanese manga style? The European comics are very rich and varied. Moreover : when doing it manga style then you're fishing in a pond that everybody els...

So if something like this happened, what's your next move? Then I'll make Hentai! It'll have everything : tentacles and giant maggots, quad amputee lolita's, devil-worshipping nuns with torture cellars, raping dog-demons from outer space, etc. It'll be brilliant and it will make the term "Visu...

Well, just a quick update to show that I'm still working on Tenkeiteki. The animation of the intro takes a long time and it will take a much longer time before I'll put it on youtube. http://www.fusebloware.com/Pics/TenkeitekiTokyo/TTTShift.jpg Here's an example of the logo of Tenkeiteki. It's not c...
