This shot was already challenging and working through difficult days and a long internet shutdown made it even harder for me. With @keyojimbo.bsky.social feedback and guidance, I was able to push through and practice in the process. 🍭 #animation #3danimation

Some days the world feels scary. When the war started, my hand was shaking on the mouse but I kept animating. Even now, with an unclear future I still animate. It's one of the few things I can control. I put my heart into characters, hoping to create games that show a more beautiful world.❤️

I built state machine for idle/ run/ stop. Still rough but fun to share! 🎮 Do you know good resources to learn UE specially AnimBP? ✍️ P.s: I changed UE editor splash 😎 #UnrealEngine #Animation #GameDev #ドラクエ #ブループリント #3DCG #gamedev #3danimation #dragonquest

Made a fan teaser for our D&D campaign: using game map, and some carefully chosen YouTube footage to capture the world's cold, eerie vibe. ❄️ I'm ready to take freelance editing projects too! Trailers, teasers,SM content for games 🎮 #VideoEditing #GameTrailer #FreelanceEditor #IndieGame #GameDev

🎮 Dream Quest devlog: Prologue 🐉 After months of learning and growing, I looked at my Dream Quest project and knew I could do so much better. So here I go: rebuilding everything from scratch, with more skill and heart. #gamedev #unrealengine #indiedev #UE5 #screenshotsaturday

Ever gone back to an old wip and instantly wanted to redo everything? 🥲 After 2 months, I opened this file, looked at the first pose and thought: "Naw... I don't want my anim to start with this pose." So I created a new layer and tried a new pose!

As a cat mom when it comes to testing a cat rig, the first thing I think of as a reference is using pictures of Hikari! 😼❤️

#ThrowbackThursday to 4 years ago! ✍️ At first I thought walk cycles needed expressive faces and camera movement to show personality. But over time, I realized that motion itself is the key to a character's identity. #3DCG #GameDev #IndieGameDev #Animation #3d #GameDesign

I wanted to try a walk cycle while adding a bit of acting to it. It was a fun challenge that pushed me out of my comfort zone! Huge thanks to @keyojimbo.bsky.social for his amazing guidance and notes, and to my animator colleagues for their feedback! #animation #gamedev #anime #maya #3danimation

Trying to figure out the issue with the camera that makes my hero mad and not look at me. 🥲 It could be used as a feature in games though! Imagine doing something bad and the main character gets mad at you! 😁 #its_not_bug_its_feature

I've always wanted to create gameplay anim showcase in UE but I didn't have the courage and time. However I've decided to show what I'm working on these days! For now enjoy this early stage of the locomotion setup for my #DragonQuest fan project! #3danimation #gamedev #3d #cg #unrealengine
