FNaF World: Object characters? Huh?

Sometimes you're put in a situation where you have to model two characters that are, quite frankly, just objects. And sometimes, you choose to bite the bullet and design them both back-to-back! Presenting: Phone Guy and Sanitation Station!

Phone Guy

Designing a character model for the Phone Guy is quite the challenge since he has no visual appearance; but he's an iconic Five Nights at Freddy's character, so I ought to put him in the hypothetical sequel to the game that celebrates the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise. I decided to model a little desk stand based on the one from the first FNaF game, and modeled the phone as a blue vintage landline in reference to his Ultimate Custom Night icon. Here's how it turned out:

(For clarification since it's been a while, top left is the character selection thumbnail, top right is the idle animation, bottom left is the attack animation, bottom right is the "hurt" animation, for when the character is subject to an enemy's attack. This is the process I typically follow for laying out my character animations. Hopefully this format is visible on all versions of this post and won't be inexplicably confusing.)

I'm very proud of it. This sort of "chibi" version of the FNaF 1 desk is kind of cute, in a way. I love the little TVs and the soda cup. There's so much detail on this that can't even be seen, but I don't do this just for practicality; I do it because it's fun, I learn things, and I thoroughly enjoy it! The phone cord has a complex bone setup to allow it to spring properly like a real phone cord does. It's not even visible half the time but it was a ton of fun to set up and it taught me more about armatures and constraints. Anything you make in this software (Blender) is a potential new learning experience. (Especially if you aren't using the ancient 2.79 version like I am.)

Sanitation Station

At first I felt I was grasping at straws for characters, but the more I thought about adding Sanitation Station, the better the idea started to seem. Maybe I've been consumed by madness, but if you take a look at this goober, you might start to see things from my point of view.

Now you may be thinking:

"That one's not even a real character! It's an inanimate object with a face drawn on it! At least Phone Guy has dialog and a personality! Even Trash & The Gang had established actions and personalities in Ultimate Custom Night, but not the Sanitation Station! Why would Sanitation Station be added to the character roster?"

Consider this: the Paper Pals appeared in the original FNaF world, and before that they were only ever depicted as completely static. It wasn't even clear if they were alive or if they were just being moved by the animatronics to mess with you. Sanitation Station actually has an impact on gameplay, which means it has a bigger role than the Paper Pals ever did, and in just one game!

Additionally, I have been adding new defense-based moves to this game concept - something I feel were left unexplored by the original FNaF World - and many of them have to do with safety features. "Threadlockers", "Waterproofing", "Stabilizers", "Repairs", "Bubble Bath" (in reference to the Phone Guy's dialog from FNaF 1), and that's just scratching the surface. The question came to mind: "Who do I give these moves to? Almost every Five Nights at Freddy's character is built around killing you, which one could possibly receive safety-based attacks?" That's where the amazing Sanitation Station comes in! It's a collection of safety items that exists entirely to lower your liability risk in its source material. It's the perfect candidate! And it has a face on it, which makes it a much more reasonable candidate than, say, the automatic security doors. And really, how can you say no to that face?

Additionally, Sanitation Station appears in Ultimate Custom Night, therefore securing it as a recurring character in the franchise, and justifying its position in the FNaF World 2 character roster.

(This is from Ultimate Custom Night, and is not my render.)

As always, thanks for checking out my art, (especially this post in particular, these are not especially popular characters.) I'll catch you on the flipside!

we as a society have GOT to bring back old-school forums. old men aren't going on reddit to tell me how to troubleshoot incredibly specific problems with my vintage industrial sewing machine. it's a hostile ecosystem to them. it's throwing off the natural balance of sustaining obsolete and endangered trades

Last Monday of the Week 2023-04-17

Mined Craft

Listening: I have had a bunch of The Longest Johns stuck in my head including Wild Mountain Thyme and John Paul Jones is a Pirate.

They've got those particular clear vocals that are just a nice sound to listen to even in absence of meaning.

Reading: Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky, the one about the planet of uplifted jumping spiders. Love every minute I get to spend with the current generation of Portia, a book that uses the phrase "girls will be girls" to describe female spiders descending into the slums to hunt males in their teenage years. Perfect book no notes.

Watching: Half-watched and did not quite finish The Grand Budapest Hotel, because the power cut a few minutes from the end. It's a Wes Anderson show alright, that style is so endearing. I watched it last when it came out and I had more or less forgotten the plot, I especially forgot that the bulk of the plot occurs like four framing devices deep.

Playing: Minecraft 1.19. As previously mentioned I used the Oracle Cloud free tier to host a 1.19.4 server and I'm now screwing around in there. Only one other person thus far has taken me up on the offer to use it, so if you're reading this feel free to hit me up so I can add you to the whitelist.

I've been watching the Loading Ready Run Minecraft Through The Ages season these past few months, where they spend an episode or two in each version of Minecraft since 1.0.

Really fun to watch, and it's made me want to build a few farms to feed more endgame equipment than I usually get to. Normally I scrabble together a handful of diamond and barely touch "endgame" gear, so it'll be fun to do and besides, 1.18+ really strongly encourages enchanting and repairing as a core game mechanic.

Also now that I'm no longer quilting I need something to do with my hands while I listen to podcasts.

Making: Embroidering patches for the penrose quilt: start and end dates, a maker's mark, and a song lyric, in the tradition of the other quilts my mother has made in the past. Still in progress, again due to power outages, blanket stitch is finicky enough when you can see what you're doing clearly.

Tools and Equipment: In the event that you have used superglue as threadlocker, you can weaken the superglue with heat if you ever need to separate those parts again.

I had to fix a door bolt where the screw holding the bolt to the handle mechanism had backed right the hell out over the past few months and fallen apart inside the mechanism. I glued the bolt back onto the screw with normal superglue as threadlocker, only to realize the next day that I had not put the spring that holds the bolt in position back correctly, so I had to hit the bolt with my lighter until the glue liquefied so that I could disassemble the thing.

[niconiconwo]

I'm actually shocked how poorly sleeve retainer kept the nut on the test bolt. Most threadlocker is rated under 30ftlb for break away and prevail so I guess next time I have to escalate to JB Weld on the threads.

I hope that yields fun results because the next step is the surest, just tack welding the nut.
