WIP: I'm still here!!!
🕑 Added 2025-06-27 14:55:50 +0000 UTC
Hello! I am so sorry for no news for a while. These past few weeks have been busy...but things are going back to normal again! Just want you all to know that I am alive, finally feeling well, and still animating as much as I can~
I got some time again this week to work a little on my own video, and finally things have started going forward. I might be able to finish it next month, for sure...maybe, probably.
As I edit it, I've been testing out adding a little more subtle camera movement, like shakes, and going with the camera up and down, and working on how to get them to blend with the Blender characters and the game recording. It's all subtle, but I feel like it will add a little more to my videos in the future.
I've been also trying to focus on really getting subtle motion right. I think it might not be a super exciting one to watch, so I guess my way to makeup for it is taking my time with the animation. And of course, making G'raha look like the most beautiful and handsome character to exist in this game.
Funny that right after I finished this it felt weirdly familiar...then I remembered Endwalker's trailer!
In paralell with that, I'm working on the second test commission! I had to take a break from it last week so that's why it's a little bit late with it (thank you for your patience!!!), but now I'm starting to refine the animation while video editing it as I go along.
This one has more characters than the last, so it is taking more time. It's an animation loop of them playing based on Baldur's Gate 3!
They were two different styles of projects that helped me measure better how long certain things take and how to deal with them in the future. I can't wait to take on more challenges like these~ I will be sure to share the final result when it's done.
Oh also, as a treat for myself last week, I took so time to subtitle an interview from Fanfest 2021 with Uchida Yuma about G'raha Tia. I shared it on Bluesky split in two parts when I spontaneously decided to subtitled it one day, and the full one is uploaded on youtube as an unlisted video. Feel free to share it with anyone that would be interested! He talks about how he views ARR G'raha's feelings and how he voiced them during the event. It makes me even more hyped to work on that MV idea of Heartache I mentioned a few weeks (months?!) ago. Maybe I will start dedicating more time to it when I finish In Storm's Wake...I started a few WIP shots already.
(I still have to figure out why the crazy flickering in Exarch's outfit...)
Thank you SO much for your patience in waiting for more news, and I will be sure to do my best to get back to the patreon videos as soon as I can!!!
Thank you for your support!

MV will take a long time but I won't give up on it!! I'm happy you're excited for it~ I'm still not very confident about the Storm's Wake, but as long as it makes more people aware of the story, or everyone that already likes it enjoys it, then that's good, I think! It would be so cool if they slowly went back to certain quests and voiced them, specially now that the Crystal Tower is mandatory for the MSQ!! I'm sure Yuma would be thrilled.
