Since I've been posting in more places, I thought I'd update everyone here on my other accounts:

It has been a long while since I last brought up the Collection. Long story short, I had ideas for it but they didn't quite pan out so far. Maybe I'll get things to work in the future but for the time being, I decided to let someone else have the keys to the gallery, so to speak.


Since I have been "tutoring" MinariNakara art-wise for a good while now, and given how the whole... 2020 situation has led to somewhat of a drought in commissions for her, I provided her with the necessary tools to make her own additions to the Collection. Things will be slightly different from my own previous additions as her style is cel shaded, but if that is of any interest to you, I invite you to visit her journal over there :

She will be handling things for the most part, and I will be helping her in the background.

An opening note to make sure everyone gets to see it. I require that you have the information mentioned down below in the Slots section when you take one. Also, be advised that things cannot be easily "erased" in 3D so think of all the specific details you may want when you give the information as it might be too late later to tweak those details.




After a long needed hiatus on this, I decided to finally reopen the Collection for new entries. This is a completely new wave with pretty much everything upgraded from the last time ; new character model, new hair styles, new background, new modeling workflow, and I am even getting help for character posing as well. Overall this means a higher quality for the new entries, which among other things results to a higher pricing compared to the previous wave. I hope the people interested will understand.

With this said, the premise is the same as the last wave, meaning immobilized ladies, stripped naked and put on display in a common gallery (meaning, same background for every entry). This includes but is by no means limited to :
  • Transformation into inanimate materials : stone, metals, plastic, chocolate, some translucent materials (see below)...
  • Transformation into mannequins, dolls, figurines, paintings, wall carvings, cardboard cutouts...
  • Cryo-freezing
  • Time-stopping and other body locking methods
  • Encasement in ice, glass, resin, carbonite...
  • Possibly others that I haven't thought of, so feel free to ask

This time around though, I will not allow the use of purely transparent materials such as glass or gemstones. They cause too many issues in terms of seeing the back or inside of the body through the front of it, and overall too much work to get something that looks remotely decent. Translucent materials are still fine though, such as frosted glass or jade.




Slots

Current slots for entries to the Collection :

  1. blahshi
  2. MercyMc
  3. EmpressLazy


Please note me if you want to reserve a slot. Things I need when you give me the detailed info are :

  • Character references (of reasonable size) and/or description (be advised that designing a character without references might be more expensive)
  • If applicable, references for the accessories
  • Method of preservation
  • What you want in terms of posing and expression
  • Optionally, the title if you want one in particular.

    • Extra render with a different pose and material : 12-26€ depending on the complexity of the pose and material


Notes on complexity

Here are some pointers as of what is commonly considered low or high complexity :

  • For materials :
    • Zero complexity : Plastic-like materials, simple metals (gold, silver, chrome, bronze), obsidian, wax, texture-less stones, chocolate
    • Low complexity : Marble, granite, encasement in ice or amber blocks, cryo-freezing without special effects
    • Medium complexity : Cryo-freezing with frost, mannequins, flattening/cardboard/wall carvings
    • High complexity : Cryo-freezing with icicles, mannequins with disassembled parts

  • For character models, things that increase complexity are :
    • Long and/or otherwise complex hair styles
    • Animal ears, tails, horns...
    • Extra accessories like weapons, detailed jewelry or headwear

Some of those who have been following me for a while either already know that I have been working on an indie game as a solo developer for quite a while now. Others might have noticed a drop in the frequency of my art these past few months, in which case... hey, I've been working on an indie game ! =p

For those interested, it's a local and online multiplayer (with single player against bots) arcade party/sports game called Power Trail, which is inspired by Windjammers, an old Neo Geo title. The idea was to take the spirit of that game, modernize it, give it a bit more variety, and of course add my own artistic touch to it.

I would like for the game to make it to Steam, but in order to get there I need to pass through the process of Steam Greenlight. For those who are unfamiliar with it, it is a system where developers create a page for their game and have to accumulate enough votes to make it to the top 50-100, after which Valve may consider putting the game on their store.

For more detail on the game as well as the trailer, you can check the Steam Greenlight page over here : steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles…

There is also a demo available over here : steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles…

And if you are interested in features that are currently in development for the game, you can check here : steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles…

I've done pretty much everything on this game, be it programming (gameplay, netcode, menus) or most art assets (2D illustrations, 3D modeling, animation, stages). So overall, it's been a pretty enriching experience that I would really like to see coming to its conclusion. It is also my first step into the indie gaming world as well, the success of which may influence my ability to work on other games after this one.

So if you are interested in the game or would like to show some support, then I would really appreciate if you could drop a vote on the page.

So, me and alexdemitri have decided to give a hand at 2.5D collab commissions in the lines of the recent collabs we've made together. On my side this allows me to keep taking a break from the Collection while still providing commission work, and having the help from Alex makes it less of a huge time investment for me as well.

The workflow will be the same as our recent collabs : I will handle the base models and backgrounds, Alex will work on the linearts and flat colors for the hair and clothing, and I will do the shading and final touches. Also, even though our recent collabs have been Inanimate TF pieces, we are open for any sort of commission as long as they are within the spectrum of things we can do.

For the time being we will be opening 5 slots for these commissions.



Slots

  • TheIceFiend
  • Sekikumo
  • blahshi
  • Anonymous
  • xenovia

You can contact me by note if you're interested. As per usual, reasonably sized character references are welcome when submitting your idea, if available. Also, unlike the Collection, we are not limiting the number of characters per commission here.



Pricing


Payments will be received through Paypal only.

Prices per character :

  • $10 for nude characters
  • +$2~12 for clothing, accessories and other extra details, depending on complexity
