Hey! So you know my fanfic Until I Found You over on my @crackshipparadise blog?

How would you guys feel if I lore dropped the AHITxWTDW AU at some point this weekend? I do plan on making this a series once I finish Until I Found You, but I do want to share the lore I have currently!

Snatcher Introduction Animation

[Original storyboard by and heavily based on the work of @doodledrawsthings]

It was very fun to make! The background turned out better than expected. And I learned a thing or two making this!

Unfortunately I wasn't able to clean up shot 3 and really bring it up to standard, as this was taking too long as is, but nevertheless it was a joy

I whittled again! Mostly small things to get back into it. I cut a few 1x1x2 inch blocks following the Linker series. Only to then notice that my knife is big enough to make it a bit of a hassle, but we lived through it (　＾▽＾)

In chronological order:

The Linker bear. Needed something relatively simple to get back into whittling and if anyone asks, he was meant to be an amputee. I was kind of frustrated at the time due to the aforementioned problems, but he's really grown on me.

Tiny Nijntje/Miffy, whom I whittled for a friend I met for the first time this year! The photo is from my friend, as I forgot to take one before gifting it xD

A bit more complex here, the Conductor from A Hat In Time. Technically not fully finished, as I still want to add the gold trim to the hat, but I'd need a fine gold pen and so that'll probably be a next year thing. Whittled for another friend, gotta see when I meet them to gift it ( *・ω・)ノ

Don't recognize this guy? Then you obviously haven't seen @comicaurora 's latest Journey to the West. This is Sun Wukong, disguised as a messenger demon, delighted at his plan working. That drawing and the one of Jupiter's Rival being surprised that Sun Wukong has the same artifact absolutely sent me! I had to stop the video both times because I was laughing so hard xD

This was probably the most technically challenging whittle of all of them. My knife is curved, so v-cuts are weird and because it's also quite wide, the space between the horns needed some creative solutions. Painting was also kinda weird, since it's really hard to give a 3D object outlines that look decent from more than exactly one angle. I'm still quite happy with him though ( ´^ω^)

I still have quite a few small blocks to get through, we'll see what I'll do with those. These were all basswood, which is nice to carve. I also have bigger blocks of cherry and that is still quite a challenge for my noodly wrists xD

After a while of healing my arm I am back with some progress on that animation! Colored in the characters, and I'm very happy with how Snatcher turned out. Took me some finnicky work to get it like that, cause I don't have a pipeline for making lineless art (you can even see some pixelziation. I will fix it in post)

All that's left is applying this coloring to the first shot and getting in the background. Shot 3 will likely be black and white with simple tones. Since I will not be cleaning it up, it wouldn't look right colored the same way without extensive work.

still see no difference
