because they're typically written in 2nd person
it puts (You) as the main character
>>
>>41125277
Because self-insertion lets you get over the hump of needing to actually feel the story and forcefully immerses (You) in the action. It's cheap writing that usually comes at the cost of the story's quality, but irl books have also been doing that more and more in the last few decades to reach wider audiences.

been messing around with some older mixes trying to make them less shit. my old headphones had almost no bass and way too much treble so i guess a lot of my mixes ended up really muddy, so i just started over. i doubt i'll end up actually finishing so i didn't bother rerecording the vocals in a newer ai engine (this was 15.ai) but it's been good for practice

Those are excuses. You either want to work on stuff or don't.

It just seems so alien to me how most people do a small set of generic activities every day of their life

Wild fucking question anyone here smelt metal? Because I have questions!
Is the following possible:
>Carve a pony out of foam
>Burry it in some packed sand
>Small access hole to surface
>Pour say ?molten aluminum? down hole
>Aluminum melts foam
>Takes foams place
>Aluminum replica of your foam carving of pony?
I just was thinking of those like aluminum ant nest videos and thought is it possible to make it a pony.
>>
>>41130394
That's just casting from a mold, dude.
>make a mold of your sculpt
>fill with something
>success
Though it'll be way heavier and more expensive if you make it solid metal rather than hollow, but that's more than I want to go into
>>
>>41130394
>foam
Try out Lost Wax Casting. Here's the general idea:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2H_lV8IOyY
Stuff like the debubbler isn't needed you just might need to do some more filing with the metal model. And the crucible can be swapped out for a propane burner and some kiln firebrick in a box depending on the metal you pick.
>>
>>41130337
Not bad. I would make the eyes smaller the muzzle bigger. She has filly energy because of the big eyes.
>>
>>41129188
I've only made a doughnut in Blender for now. I plan on doing more, but it's on the loooooong list of things I want to do.
>>
>>41130394
I've been dabbling with it and must caution that it's much harder than those youtube videos make it seem. You need proper type of sand for the mould so it retains the shape properly. Also you need to take care choosing your casting medium. Aluminum is easy to melt even with improper setup, but has very high surface tension and needs good vacuum or deep mould to have enough pressure if you want fine details to show up. Also if you plan using aluminum you should get the stuff with proper additives made for casting. Pure stuff like soda cans or extruded beams will melt yes but the flow and ability to show details is bad. Also those un-coated wool insulated forges will fill your lungs with fibers without proper respirator.

I tried going with the cannon design but that make the general form of the head kinda triangular and looked horrible on perspective and the eyes protrud from the face, so I ended up with a design similar to DjThed models
>>
>>41131992
anyways, I'll probably change some details after if I don't like how looks in the end but in the meanwhile I'll keep it like that while I continue working on the hair/rig/textures/etc.

>>41130394
You can use lost PLA casting from a 3d printer for something much higher quality with less effort.
>>
>>41119770
this is good work, anon. have you read any books on comic storytelling/theory? i think if you would crack some of those open you could take it to the next level
>>
>9
>>
>>41130394
Yep thats the basic gist of it. Theres a bit more to look into and it won't come out super detailed, but then again ponies arent super detailed so it should be just fine with some post processing

>>41130592
>>41132082
Lost PLA casting typically requires an extremely expensive if you want to make anything good out of it. You can't just "melt" out the wax/resin/plastic at a hot temp and have that be it. You need specialized programmable kilns that will hold the mold at specific temperatures for hours while increasing/decreasing it at a specific rate.
You not only need to melt out all of the model in a specific way, but also fire/cure the casting shell which is why these specific temperatures are needed.

>>41130878
You're thinking of sand casting which uses special sand that retains shape after removing the model. Foam casting is different since you dont remove the foam. The metal just vaporizes it as you pour it in meaning you don't need special sand that retains its shape.

Either way anon, foam casting in relatively cheap and a good starting point if you want to try and make metal ponies. You can also try and buy scrap aluminum which is relatively cheap and typically is an alloy that casts decently. I get mine for around $1/lb.
I've started invest a lot more money into equipment and improving and would like to hopefully start making a lot more pony stuff to show here.

Sorry for the massive info dump. Feel free to ask some questions if you need. I'd love to help someone else get into the hobby, especially for ponies!

??? It's one of the easiest casting methods at home
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKeImuJpxow
>>
>>41133425
Ah sorry. That method of lost PLA is the shell method which is nearly the same as foam casting, just with a bit more set up and more post processing. Same method, same results.
When I called lost PLA expensive, I was more referring to refractory investment/slurry casting.

MLP has been around for over a decade, i'm sure some autist has gone through and made blender poners at some point.
best i could find is: https://www.deviantart.com/mythicspeed/art/DL-CreatorOfPony-s-Mane-6-Blender-Models-1021478045
personally, they look like shit
the SFM versions aren't much better but put through the wonderful lens of blender, they at least look somewhat decent-
https://ponysfm.com/revamped-sfw-ponies-updated-release
I import these models into blender using SourceIO the eyes will need some finagling but you can sort it with a texture node and importing the pupil vtf texture

this is what i think its happening with your animation
also, the front legs movement feels like a griffon or like a bird because, just above the hoof the leg does not bend.
Please render this animation in side view. lets see how it fares in that perspective

>the front legs movement feels like a griffon or like a bird because, just above the hoof the leg does not bend
I think that may be due to how the model is rigged, there is a bone there but it doesn't bend that much with IK, is there a way to sort of 'encourage' a bend in an IK path?

In the View menu there is options to render the viewport.

Also want to see that armature because the leg looks like there is a missing articulation or at least a controller which is probably the reason the movement looks so stiff
>is there a way to sort of 'encourage' a bend in an IK path
Usually the bones would bend against the direction the joint is pointing so if the bones are set straight you will have issues trying to bend them if they bend at all

i like the harmonic motion and overall progression of the piece; suggest working on dynamic contrast and especially phrasing (e.g., expression) to complement. the extent may depend on the libraries you have, but i feel each instrument, in particular the piano and strings, could "sing" much more.
>>
>>41156620
I like it, but I kind of agree with >>41157330
(NTA)
>0:00-1:00
To my ear having what is essentially the same motif being repeated and traded between different instruments combined with the rapidity of the trading is a bit awkward. I would add some more variation of the actual motif, and/or extend each accompanying texture to have them last long enough to sink in, or reduce the number of different textures?
>1:00-1:10
To the point of dynamic contrast, I think everything else is overpowering the piano melody a bit. This is as much a mixing thing as much as it is an arranging thing. This is true for most of the rest of the song--it feels like a half-commitment to focusing on the melody.
>1:30
This transition is neat but again the way the motif is passed around is a bit repetitive for my tastes
The buildup to the end is cool.

blender fucking sucks
followed a beginners guide, placed a cube, try to sculpt the cube and it just turns into a triangular mess and doesn’t even fucking sculpt.
this shit is not clay at all, plus clunky UI and requirement of a drawing pad just to sculpt? Only actual thing I’ve accomplished in it was just uploading deviantart models with texture into VRC. Otherwise blender is complete dogshit.

If her special talent was just working at a MareDonald's she would have something like a burger or fries or like a spatula or something
Instead she has THE company logo
That means her special talent has to do with MareDonalds itself as a company, which is huge. She might be destined to be a high level executive who gets hired because she's just so fucking good at MareDonalds management and leadership with good ideas and stuff like that.

every time I see someone say skill issue I wonder what your motives are.
Is it to bully people from learning a hobby? Or is it to just be an aggressive retard who can’t do the hobby himself and has to project.

If it was a “skill issue” then maybe elaborate on where the issue is instead of saying this decrepit zoomer meme over and over

Did you look up even a basic tutorial on how to sculpt in Blender before declaring that it "fucking sucks"?
>>
>>41163500
>followed a beginners guide, placed a cube, try to sculpt the cube and it just turns into a triangular mess and doesn’t even fucking sculpt.

Maybe if you had better reading comprehension nigger, same guide said to use a stylus and drawing pad for sculpting too instead of mouse.
>>
>>41163522
I have a pretty good idea what you did wrong. If you follow the tutorial exactly instead of skipping steps then you should get better results.

Using a mouse instead of a tablet should work fine, but you could also try looking up a different tutorial that uses a mouse specifically. There's no shortage of Blender tutorials out there.
>>
>>41163548
>if you follow the tutorial exactly instead of skipping steps

Nigger I followed the tutorial back and forth, and it still failed me.
>I have a pretty good idea what you did wrong.
Then fucking elaborate instead of just saying that garbage?
>>
>>41163564
>Nigger I followed the tutorial back and forth, and it still failed me.
Then try a different one. There are videos all over youtube of people sculpting in Blender, so the feature obviously works, despite what you claim.

>Then fucking elaborate instead of just saying that garbage?
Nah. You clearly didn't do even the most basic troubleshooting on your own before coming to whine ITT, so I don't particularly feel like helping you.
>>
>>41163361
blender has more features than just sculpting (which is one of the hardest aspect of the program to master), its hard surface modeling is one of the best and it can also do animation, texturing, compositing, etc...
if you wanted to use blender solely for sculpting then maybe an app that is specialized in that might be a better choice but if you really are just interested by the sculpting, then a drawing pad is heavily recommended in all sculpting apps so I don't get where your anger about that comes from
if you're using to make 3D models, then I'd recommend learning the hard surface workflow which works amazingly with keyboard and mouse
>>
>>41163580
>Nah. You clearly didn't do even the most basic troubleshooting on your own before coming to whine.

Yeah as if there’s a guide on “basic troubleshooting” that exists for everyone in your mind. What is the “most basic troubleshooting” one can do nigger? Why don’t you show how wise you are instead of just being a retard who claims to know everything. And then will just attack people who just started using the program by saying “lol hurr skill issue” and when they ask for you to elaborate you go “lol find a guide on your own despite not knowing the software or how things are supposed to work or what’s true/false”
>>
>>41163585
>What is the “most basic troubleshooting” one can do nigger?
You could try a different tutorial, for starters. Or go over the first one very carefully and try to make sure every part of your setup is the same as the one in the tutorial. If whoever made up the tutorial followed those steps and got X result, but you followed the same steps and got Y result, most likely you didn't actually follow the exact same steps (possibly because the tutorial as published didn't lay out the steps specifically enough, in which case another tutorial might be more helpful).

NTA. and I was right the first time, it's clearly a skill issue: you lack basic skills in both reasoning about your problems and in human interactions. If you can somehow stop being an angry retard for five minutes, things might get easier for you.

Also, somebody remind me, what kind of artist is it who blames his tools?
>>
>>41163361
I much prefer Autodesk Maya for 3D modeling and animation. That said, Blender is perfectly usable once you get the hang of things. At the end of the day it’s just another tool to use, another language to learn. Just be patient and follow tutorials from more than one source if you have to.
Or, alternatively, the more fun option is to say fuck the tutorials altogether and teach yourself; there’s really no one right way to sculpt a cube.

I have finally finished the rest of the sketched versions of this comic's pages. I put more effort into page 13 for whatever reason. I was just really into it and liked how it looked. Please excuse the sloppiness of the less worked on pages. The point gets across regardless, and as I said before, these are going to be digitally coloured eventually. It will probably take me a while in that regard, but in the mean time, enjoy!
