[diamondsheep]

Hiii !! i just wanted to say that i'm sorry that i have been in a little bit of an art hiatus, it is just that right now i'm on finals and i'm really tired

both of the classes that i'm in are literally making me spend all my time animating so i haven't had the time to draw fanart 😭💔

But i promise that soon i will be free and i will post art again 💚✨

[vern-a]

I have never touched photoshop. I even made my qualification animation in firealpaca.

But pissever are making me change. I need a timeline for them. I need the audio track

[hmvw2015]

Luz’s pirate outfit is one of my favs!

[naggingatlas]

thinking about the situation in my uni rn and it's just. putting me in stitches.

im from moldova. tiny country between ukraine and romania. i study at the most prestigious university in it, not very hard to get into we have like three of them all in all.

i study game development. year one. its a very recent (3 years, they don't even have alumni yet) addition to the specialty roster here, as part of the JOBS OF THE FUTURE program sponsored by some western fags, mostly americans and swedes. the other two are media production (anything to do with tv pretty much) and animation which i am not sure exists because ive never met anyone majoring in it.

its kind of awesome to study gamedev at my uni. we have good if a little socially awkward teachers, very amicable homey atmosphere, i actually feel like im working on something i love.

but there is just one thing that cracks me up.

the western fags, пендосы if we're being elegant, sponsor most of the course right. they invested in these beautiful clean high tech classrooms, sensor boards and bean bags. the gamer chairs they put in one of the computer labs are - quite frankly - the most ive ever felt alive in a chair. and the computers are quite nice. some gay ass leds in the see through frame. faggish. and yet.

they don't have illustrator. they don't even have photoshop. they have inkscape and gimp preinstalled on them. not even fucking aceprite. same for every engine we have in the curriculum tho it doesnt matter that much - but theyre still all free to use apps. and ive just been wondering. how.

because they know our teachers are still gonna show us how to do work in illustrator instead of fucking inkscape right. they know that. they paid for the classrooms, they paid for these unnecessarily bright machines. and yet they insist on "oh if you can't afford these adobe licences you shall never pirate".

i have not met a single person from a post-soviet country who had ever paid for one piece of software they use for work. in all of my twenty years of life. from hobbyists to cream of the crop in their profession. not a single one. i was taught how to pirate by my grandma at 6 years old.

fucking inkscape man.

[castaccio]

cas it's been all over my dash, please what is up with incredibox i thought it was just a beat maker how does it have lore????

It was the art post that parodied My Immortal wasn't it. Yeah I'd have questions too

I'm so sorry for the invasion my broski.... but I'm glad you're in it with me now! teehee :3

Alright SO

The main game Incredibox (which you can buy for £4.99 on Google Play, Steam, and the Apple Store) is pretty simple. It has its sounds you assemble, and if you assemble them in the right order you can unlock 3 little cutscenes called Bonuses!

Most of the time they're just really cool mini-music videos that have a cute animation playing to an new spin on the sounds. Coolio visual spectacle. But SOME of them have visuals and lyrics that connect to each other! A little bit of worldbuilding! It built up over time until it culminated in the 8th official version, which has very long bonuses that connect together to form a gorgeous-looking 3 minute short film. Which was, insane! at the time. Especially since the film revealed that one of the guys from an earlier version was not only given extreme Story Importance in these bonuses, but also superpowers.

Yeah it was wild man,,, I wish I could've been in the fandom at the time

The 9th official version is much more lowkey with its storytelling, but it has a bunch of visual cameos and lyrical references that connect it back to the 8th. Its 2 (for now!) bonuses are shorter but jam-packed with gorgeous visuals and just,,, such earworms. (All of the bonuses are on YouTube btw, and all are named as well—that's where we get names for concepts.)

Nonetheless, Incredibox's story focuses on building up visually interesting concepts into a world, and picking one or two characters to drive a story if needed. Being a FNAF fan, I love this kind of implicit storytelling.

Some fan-made Mods of the Official Game take a similar, but more explicit approach. The most iconic one is the Evadare series of mods, which have some of the best fan-made bonuses to date. The last mod in the series, The Void, is also musically better than any official version. Each mod goes for the short-film approach, telling an explicit—if a little wild—story. The music was built first and the story built second, like the official game, but because the story is more explicit, we get some wild turns. We're in space. Then we're in Halloween town. Now we're pirates. Now we're in The Void.

There are many good mods that you can download and add to the official version of the game. But for fans who:

a) don't have the official version,

b) don't know how to program with json,

and/or

c) don't know how to animate with an Adobe Animate sprite sheet,

Scratch is the prime way to mod. Stories are all the rage in the fandom, but it's hard to add bonuses on Scratch. So to tell stories, people instead opt to make lore documents, with each sound having its own (sometimes gruesome) backstory...sometimes at the cost of sounding good. Orin Ayo is the most popular example of this, popular enough to form its own little sub-fandom. People love making OCs in the story, though there are better story-based Scratch mods like the Colorbox or Sepbox series.

As much as Incredibox pervades your dash now, it'll probably be gone in a few months when I move onto the next oingly spoingly...but it's still something I recommend you try out!

[grimfantas]

I LOVE YOUR ART!!! YOUR COLORS AND STYLE SO <3333333 can i ask what you use to make gifs/animations??

Thank you

i have a very strained process of doing gif because of my limited clip studio pro! please find a way to pirate clip studio EX if you want animations on a smooth art program, but i use pretty much any resources i have on this blog... Clip studio, Adobe Animate, Flash Cs6, and even my old stuff like mr. capgras is all animated on sai/photoshop (but i used Vegas/gifmaker as a lengthy preview)

i suggest clip studio for anything gif/smooth coloring though... or gifmaker if you want transparent stuff!

even firealpaca as lame as it is provide somewhat of an animation software... :'3 you can use anything!!

Week 1 - Photoshop Introduction

Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the induction week due to roommate and sleeping problems so I had to begin from week 1. During this week we were given an introduction to Photoshop and we learned basic tools such as navigation, tools and composition ideas. We created photo collages of animal heads on top of human bodies in the style of Yago Partal.

I started my first collage by using the Quick selection tool to cut out the animal head and then cutting and pasting it on top of the human head. I then used the quick selection tool again to remove the human body from the background and onto its own layer. I then used a layer mask and hid the whole animal head, and then made the Brush tool soft and used white to reveal the animal head and black to hide the animal head to look like Yago Partal's examples below.

These are 3 examples of Yago Partal's work.

These are my attempts at Yago Partal's style of collage. I have not used Adobe Photoshop before as I usually use Clip Studio Paint I was not too familiar with layer masks so I found this workshop useful.

I wasn't really a fan of the first one with the Arctic fox head and suit because I feel like I faded the edges around the head too much and some of the suit was faded. I am quite happy with the second example I did with the bear head on the suit instead because it looks more realistically done and it gives the impression that the bear is in the suit without the faded edges. Partal further explores this theme by using head accessories so I tried doing a cat head in a pirate costume with a pirate hat and I am also pleased with this outcome as I believe it replicates the anthropomorphic animal theme quite well.

Anyways sorry for not being online in a fuckin’ WHILE but I’m here to give you all some more art :þ

Weekly Update May 19, 2023

Not doing so hot. Lots of ambitions, not enough progress. I have a certain long term physical illness that decided to flare up really bad this week, but the day before I had gotten a bunch of art done and queued so I think I covered it up well. I haven’t been doing anything productive today or yesterday, I’ve just been playing Dokapon.

I’m getting self conscious about my art presence online again so I want to make a big push by making something. Ran into a couple issues with the would-be new projects.

In TRG Animated news I have all but one shot storyboarded for the first batch of audio, and have begun divvying up the second batch, and I’ll probably look into what other audio I’ll need for this animation. A bit unsure if I should storyboard the second batch or begin character animation on the first once I’m done. May also touch up a couple pieces on the rigs, like Emile’s hair and Jon’s Jacket. Also a good chance there will be holes in the limbs I missed that I’ll have to fix. I’ve already caught one in all 3 boys’ arms, 2 in Jon’s.

Also been poking other Adobe features in general in anticipation of other animations, and want to throw out some lower effort animations, although that still requires prep work that I don’t want to dedicate significant time to while there’s bigger projects on the table. I’ll still put in what I need to for it in passing, but when I have dedicated art time I’ll try to focus it on general drawings and TRG.

On the topic of other animation projects, I don’t want to screw with copyright music stuff, so I tried to look into composition software again. Turns out the version of FL I bought was a crack/scam/illegal copy. I don’t really want to use pirated versions of software that offers one time purchases, so I don’t really know what to do with it. I’ll look into FL alternatives, since I didn’t really like FL’s interface anyway. If I ever had a real source of income maybe I’d buy it but that’s probably never going to happen if my body keeps rotting and spawning like it has been.

Still need to catch up on inktober 52 I’ll probably do it all in one burst once I get a burst of motivation without access to digital stuff. Lower priority.

My body is really badly screwed up, I’ve been back on the painkillers at night, but I’ve been able to stay off during the day. It feels like my kidneys are full of live beetles and my scars are being pulled apart by dogs from inside my skin. The scar thing should clear up eventually on its own but it still sucks. I’m also trying to sell my blood again, but transportation is tricky. I’ll try to register with another company that has a closer location I can take the bus to. Doing everything I can, just never feels like enough.

[ksen-noodles]

Random but- uh... pro and cons of using Photoshop or MSPAINT as an Art Program.

Strictly personal opinion that probably shouldn't be taken as advice:

Photoshop:

Pros: 1. Has layers! Omg yay :D

2. Very nice color wheel

3. Layer modes, and extensive color editing, and has brush modes too. You ALSO can add cool brushes and MAKE cool brushes

4. Gradients...

5. Filters go brr! Also the tools are Decent

6. Technically u can make gifs n animate, good luck figuring it out

Cons: 1. MY PC GOES EEEE immediately. me no likey :/

2. Expensive. That gets fixed by pirating the shit outta adobe. AND ALSO PHOTOPEA (the site)

3. SLOW. AS HELL . defeats it in a cool battle

4. It's hard to grasp :/ you gotta have experience w PC art programs. It's also better suited as a photo editing tool, so perfect for editing a finished work, not making one

5. No stabilizer! Good luck

6. Shit fill tool

Ms Pain:

Pros: 1. FAST. ITS SO FAST N EASY :D And intuitive ofc

2. It's like crunching a lil snacc but art... sometimes you eat a lunch's worth of snacks and then regret it tho lmao

3. FUN.

4. Funny Manga black+white mode

5. Pixel art!!!!!

6. Brush fills for shapes are super fun for bg,,,

Cons: 1. FFFFUCK there's no good brushes. Fuck around find out draw with a pencil or with a funny brush but fill EVERYTHING with it

2. No brush pressure aside from FEW CHOSEN brushes and tablets. They are literally mostly incompatible w ms paint

3. Shit tools

4. No layers!!!!!!!

5. No layer modes, brush modes, filters OR gradients GOOD LUCK SHAWTY

6. Art tends to look crunchy due to canvas size and brush physics :p

7. Serious art requires a lot of effort to look good. I mean it. It's a doodley space!!!

8. Oh the fill tool is shit in here too lmao

9. OH AND NO STABILIZER, NATURALLY

Drawpile:

Pros: 1. YAY STABILIZER

2. YAY DECENT FILL TOOL

3. Brush modes!!!!

4. Layers!!

5. ONION SHEETS. DECENT N QUICK ANIMATION PREVIEW. very basic tho. Not super good for animation. BUT ITS INTUITIVE YAY YAY YAY

6. YOU CAN DRAW WITH FRIENDS.

Cons: 1. NO WHY IS MY TRANSFORMATION TOOL SO SHITTY NOW

2. The layer options are. Poor.

3. No good brushes again :///

4. Tbh most tools and canvas redaction things are shitty but I can cope for the animation and shared canvas prospects

[evolution-shack]

Not too sure what to title this post, but uh. Software. Yeah.

Music

Musescore - it's a freeware program that comes with a big general soundfont. Very nice to use if you understand sheet music and how to count notes. Putting multiple parts together can get messy though. Learning curve is small because of the community wiki.

LMMS - a freeware DAW that I personally use as an alternative to paid stuff like Finale or Fl Studio. Basically if you're familiar with how midi programs synthesize stuff you're gonna have a bawl using this to compose and mix tracks. It mainly relies on plugins and has a medium sized learning curve.

Audacity - decent audio editing software. I mainly use this to record my voice or rip music from things like cassette tapes or vinyl records. It has other uses too if you can get the hang of it.

Art

FireAlpaca - I mainly use this because I cannot wrap my head around paint tool sai or krita. Plus I kinda got tired of using paint.net for my art. (Although paint.net is not a bad software to start with) Very versatile and has just enough features to not overcomplicate things.

Adobe Flash CS4 - Adobe gets a shitty rep for a reason, but it's not my fault they made CS4 easy to pirate and gets fake keys for. Working in flash is an interesting experience to say the least and I dare say that you have to rely on library items if you aren't hand-drawing each frame.

Adobe Animate 2020 - I also pirated this one. (Mainly to do edits on friday night funkin sprites) It's very similar to CS4, but by default the UI is dark and I dare say you have even more tools at your disposal. It has 2 pens, but you have to add the pressure sensitive one from a menu. (Also if you're going to export your project as non-flash video you need to get a hold of Adobe Media Encoder 2020, I learned this the hard way. But it's easy to find.)

Video

Windows Movie Maker - I'm being completely serious when I say this, it's actually a decent video editing software to start out on. It's free and some lovely team on the internet preserved the windows 7 update installer that adds movie maker to your pc.

Song Vegas 16 - Take one shot if you're not surprised this one came from the same place all my Adobe software came from. Anyways. This video editing software has a weird learning curve, but you can get things done with this even just by playing around with it.

Aviutl - The only reason I know about this is because of being part of the MMD Community a while back. Basically a really good freeware .avi editor from Japan if 1.) You know where to find the version with all the basic plugins 2.) Can actually get it to run on your pc. 3.) Find the patch that'll make the UI display in English. 4.) You can find the plugins that let you export your edited video as mp4. It can do a lot of things vegas can do but it has a simpler, easier to navigate UI. (If anyone doesn't wanna go through those 4 steps I have a version of it saved somewhere. Just ask and I'll send it to you.)

FLASHBack: Week 105 - Animator vs. Animation

Today on FLASHBack, we're going to get a little meta. Over the last two years, we've looked at roughly over six-hundred fifty Animations by various Flash Artists, but have only rarely taken the step back to look at the Animation process itself. So that's exactly what we're going to do, but not in the conventional way. Instead, we're going to be looking at a series of Flash Animations that takes its cues from the Looney Tunes classic Duck Amuck, in which a cartoon character ends up getting into a fight with the animator who's bringing them to life. And also touch upon intellectual property theft by a notorious content aggregator website along the way.   On 3 June 2006, Alan "noogai" Becker uploaded Animator vs. Animation to Newgrounds. The next day, it was Frontpaged and took Daily 2nd Place, and by the end of the week it was the Weekly Users' Choice and the Review Crew Pick. The animation was of a stick figure "victim" being drawn in Flash, only to be tormented by the animator until the stick figure's selection box gets broken, letting him escape across Flash's user interface to take hold of the various drawing tools to defend himself.   Five days later on 8 June 2006, the same Flash was uploaded to Albino Blacksheep. It was from there that the website eBaum's World ripped the Flash file to upload to their own site a day later. eBaum's had a bad reputation for stealing independent creators' viral content and hosting it on their own site without permission or compensation, even going so far as to strip credits and source watermarks from the content before uploading it to their own site. This is what they had done with Albino Blacksheep's authorized copy of Animator vs. Animation, but what eBaum's didn't know was that in addition to the visible "hosted at albinoblacksheep.com" that they removed, there was other tracking code embedded in the Flash that meant they'd been caught red-handed.

  On 12 June 2006, the siterunner of Albino Blacksheep made a statement about the content theft. eBaum's World then approached Alan directly with an offer of $250 to buy the permission to continue to host the Flash on their site (as well as naming him the "winner" of a nebulous "Best Flash" contest that had a prize of an additional $1000). However, this money came with a price: Becker had to submit a statement for eBaum's to post, making it look like he was clearing them of blame.   Alan, who was 17 at the time, and from a family that was not well off, had initially taken the money, but then sent it back, demanding that his Flash and the "Statement" he'd made be taken down. In a post made by Albino Blacksheep on 23 June 2006, it was pointed out that the statement had been pre-scripted by eBaum's to carefully sidestep the fact that while they had contacted Alan ahead of time asking to be able to host his animation, he'd told them no, and so they went and stole his file anyways. That post included an apology to the Flash community from Becker for falling into eBaum's trap. The animation and the statement were removed from eBaum's on 26 June 2006.   After receiving funding from Atom Films, Becker would revisit the concept with Animator vs. Animation 2, posted to Newgrounds on 15 Mar 2007. It took the same slate of awards as the first, with the exception of being the Daily Feature instead of Daily 2nd Place. This time around the stick figure isn't labeled "victim" but instead "Chosen One" (possibly a Matrix reference). He immediately breaks out of his selection box on his own, and begins breaking the Flash user interface with fireballs. This time around The Animator has prepared an arsenal of weapons in Flash's library of animatable "Symbol" objects, including a SPNKR rocket launcher from Halo. However, the Chosen one breaks though Flash to get to the Windows XP desktop beneath (complete with the Bliss wallpaper). There he battles with the fox from the Firefox icon and the Stick Figure from the AOL Instant Messenger Icon. Finally, he's contained by an Avast Antivirus Scan (though alas, Avast's language settings were on plain English, and not he infinitely more fun "Pirate" setting). The animation ends with The Chosen One having been tamed and being used as a Pop-Up Blocker. Later, this animation would get a Live Orchestral Score courtesy of Joe-Pietro Abela, who used it for his Masters project at the Berklee College of Music.   On 6 August 2011, Alan would upload the third chapter in the series to Newgrounds, where it again took the quadfecta of top awards. In this installment, The Chosen One breaks free of his enslavement as a Pop-Up Blocker, to again spread havoc throughout The Animator's computer. This time around the battle ranges across such iconic windows software as Microsoft Word, Solitaire, & Minesweeper. Clippy the Office Assistant proves to be a formidable foe, but eventually, The Animator has to open up Flash to draw a new red stick figure to be "The Dark Lord", coding him to go after The Chosen One. In the end however, the two team up and end up causing a Blue Screen of Death on The Animator's computer.   It would be another three years before Becker would put Animator vs. Animation IV on Newgrounds, 2 October 2014, to the usual maximum acclaim. For this chapter, Alan had turned to Kickstarter to get support for production, raising $11,280 in donations. With that funding, he expanded the scope of the series, by not just showing what was happening on the computer screen, but also incorporating real world video of himself as The Animator. The Chosen One has a Second Coming, and when The Animator discovers this, the ensuing battle ranges from Facebook to The Animator's iPhone, and then back onto the computer via Dropbox. In his process of containing The Second Coming, The Animator realizes that The Second Coming is better at animating than he is, and strikes a bargain with him, allowing his continued existence in return for tutoring.   After that, Alan would begin doing spinoffs, such as Animation vs. Minecraft and Animation vs. YouTube, where his stick figures would begin having adventures outside the context of Adobe Flash and interactions with The Animator. These would then be followed up with Animation vs League of Legends, Animation vs Pokemon, and Animation vs Super Mario Bros. However, in between those spinoff episodes, he would continue to produce the occasional short animation for the main Animator vs. Animation series, and on 5 Dec 2020, he compiled those shorts into Animator vs. Animation V, which was uploaded to YouTube on 5 December 2020.   That's all for FLASHBack this week. Next week, THE END.

Does anyone know how to pirate Adobe Animate? I can't afford it, and I have a project I wanna do that while I MIGHT be able to do it within the 1 month free trial, that's IF it's 30 days of beautiful weather, no humidity, no arthritis problems no matter how long I draw, and I work tirelessly and don't have a day where I take a break or have any sort of event pop up, AND it doesn't take me a week to just learn how to use the fucking thing. So, like, it's MAYBE possible to do under the time I'd pay for it, but if I managed to, I'd probably end up destroying myself.

At the same time, though, I don't want to lose progress by just signing up for a new free trial with a different email or whatever. If it was as simple as that, I've got, like, 4 emails for just that purpose plus my main 3, and I'm prepared to make more. But I don't imagine I'd be able to carry over progress to a new free trial?

This isn't a time sensitive question, I won't have a laptop for a few weeks, actually, but if anyone can help me out in advance for when I get one, I'd really appreciate it!

[beangods]

som questions: 1a. animal crossing new horizons. are u on the hype train 1b. if so pm me ur friend code...... 2. tv show reccs? 3. whats the first thing ull when This Whole Situation is over 4. whats one skill u wish u had 5. top 3 places u wanna visit?

if you havent seen avatar the last airbender yet, please do. i'm currently re-watching it in dutch (both bc i'm trying to learn dutch and bc dutch cartoon dubs are Really Good as a general rule) and. please.

bf is trying to get me into the expanse and tbh it looks promising, but also kinda boring in the way live-action plot-heavy shows intended for adults and devoid of fantastical elements (irrespective of genre) generally are

on the topic of live-action shows intended for adults with fantastical elements the librarians is very good but i havent watched it in 5ever and have no idea whats going on currently. it's just a fun time

3. hmmmmm . . . resume my life plans, number one. i still need to fill out some paperwork but i was PLANNING to study abroad in germany in the fall for a full academic year. also a doctor's appointment was canceled, so i need to get back to that doc on monday bc . . . she's my endo lol. hopefully my surgery won't be canceled but it's in june so hopefully not. in the immediate future . . . 1) see my friends 2) hang out with bf 3) go to Local Yarn Store and just knit/crochet with People. also . . . rly wish school was canceled for real so i could just fart around doing whatever instead of farting around doing schoolwork or procrastinating thereof, but i digress.

4. ability and energy to animate in OpenToonz. i know how to animate in Adobe Animate/Flash, but i Do Not Have That Program and have better things to spend my money on than a Subscription so. until i a) figure out OpenToonz or b) pirate flash, im SOL. technically i do already have the skill of animating, and this is true of most of my skills---i HAVE them, but they aren't developed to the point where i'm happy with them. oh and being able to tailor my own clothes would be cool but i can knit so it's nbd

5. easy

antwerp, belgium

erfurt, germany (where my study abroad program will take me, hopefully)
