Ok so Prepare yourself The time it's set in is like the 1950s, but the technology is much more advanced than the tech we have today. Kind of like retro sci fi, in an alternate earth. Earth is completely war torn and stuff, because the countries keep fighting amongst themselves for resources. Two countries, which I haven't decided proper names for yet, but I'm gonna call them, NaΕ‘e svoboda and Tarkis, are technically neighbours but they fight a lot. Space travel is a thing btw, and both of these countries independently discover a new planet rich in a type of fuel that would make each country super rich. So naturally they send out an expedition each with miners but also about two to seven divisions of the army. The trip takes a little while so the soldiers are put into cryostasis for the trip. When they find the other army on the planet they begin fighting. At the end peace happens tho. Also the planet has toxic air and sunlight so gas masks are worn along with clothing that covers all of your skin. There are 3 main characters and the stories really long, so I'm not gonna detail all of it. One of them is a NaΕ‘e svoboda battle medic, his names Merry, who is grumpy and loud, but has a heart of gold and wants to keep the people close to him safe. The other guy is a Tarkis sniper called Hawk, who is basically the comic relief except he actually has character depth. The last one is a girl called Russet who is also part of Tarkis, except she was actually born on the ship that brought them to the planet and never actually saw earth. Her father is a high ranking general, so despite her being like 17 she is a commander. She can be kinda strict and stiff, but she gets that character growth throughout the story. Now give me ur lore π«

He wouldn't look exactly like me, I'd just change things like the clothes and hair, and maybe add glasses but that's it. I don't know if I'm good enough at drawing to really show what a person would look like irl π

(I had some spare time today, so here is an update) Grass mingle (I think) Qirunar swished his tail nervously. Usually Ainijaya did things like this, considering she was Kani from birth, while he only became Kanir through marrying her. He wasnβt instructed on all this court etiquette. βVery well. You two have my blessing.β Qirunar tried to smile at the couple in front of him. They were well suited for each other, but definately unexpected. But then again, Enki and Kat knew each other since they were young, so it made sense. βThank you Kanir.β Kat grinned, and the two gave a small bow and walked away. Qirunar found it a bit silly that nichelings needed their leaders permission to marry and have children, but maybe that was to control population size. His tail kept swishing back and forth. It was hard to be happy for them, considering he and Ainijaya were being hunted relentlessly, and that meant their children were in danger as well. βHow are you feeling, Jay?β Qirunar walked up to Ainijaya, a small smile on his face in an attempt to make her feel better. When the Kani was in a foul mood, little could change that. And when she was sick, she was always in a foul mood. βHow do you think?β She rasped. There was the usual irritation in her voice, but also something else. βI was only checking.β mumbled Qirunar, turning to leave. βWait. Donβt go.β She didnβt say it in the way a sick person said it, someone who didnβt want to be left alone. She said it almost fearfully. Then Qirunar understood. βI-Iβll go get Nikaj or Ramsi to keep you company.β He threw behind him, quickening his pace. She didnβt say anything to that. Qirunar had never been a good actor. He could only hope that he was convincing enough now, or his mate could lose her life. Once he knew he was out of view, he ran to get Enki. Enki raced back to help the Kani, but by then Qirunar was out of breath, not used to all this running. He staggered back, and was met with the body of a yellow nicheling. His stomach turned. A warrior, like Enki. Ainijaya was backed away, panting, while Enki stood regaining his breath. He was swaying quite a bit though. βThat nicheling wanted to bring as much of the royal family here as she could before she killed us all. She told me as much when caught me earlier. Clever, but not clever enough.β Ainijaya muttered, breath finally stabilizing. Enki however, fell over, and it was only then that Qirunar noticed he was bleeding. ~ Kiji babbled at the sky, waving her tiny paws in front of her. It was all so big! A rabbil on the path ahead darted into the bushes, and Kiji wondered if she would be big enough to catch a rabbil one day. She hoped so. βKeep still, you spiky little thing.β Kijiβs mothers voice was muffled by the fact that Kiji was being carried by her. βI can carry her.β Her fathers calm, albeit a bit gruff voice floated over. Kiji squeaked, just to tell them she was part of the conversation as well. βNo you canβt. You need to rest and recover, grumpy.β mam said to dad. βYouβre the healer.β dad smiled slightly, but Kiji could see he was a bit hurt. He winced everytime he put weight on one paw. Kiji mewed unhappily. She still didnβt understand why he was hurt. She once hurt herself, when a burr found its way into her nest. It was very spiky, and she tried to bat it away, but ended up cutting her small, soft paw. Maybe her dad got spiked by a burr as well? βAlmost there Kiji. The beach is beautiful, I know youβll love it!β mam smiled. Kiji didnβt know what a βthe beachβ was, but it sounded exciting. She babbled happily to herself as the small family made their way to the shore. ~ Mita walked through the soft grasses, Hu right behind her, her tail gently clamped between his jaws. The wind was strong this close to the sea, and it was best for Hu to not fall into the water and drown. βHow close are we?β Hu mumbled. βClose.β Mita replied quietly. As always. She heard Hu sigh. He was naturally talkative, so spending time with someone who barely said a word must be painful. Mita realised with a small pang of guilt that he still went out of his way to talk to her anyway. βNikaj and Ramsi are already at the port. They went ahead.β Mita added in an attempt to make Huβs ordeal less painful. βThose two mean a lot to you, donβt they?β Hu asked. He was nosy too. Talkative and nosy. βThey do. I canβt have my own children, so caring for them is important to me.β βI still think Itβs an awful punishment. Being demoted to that rank I mean.β Hu said a lot of things, and Mita knew he meant well, but it made her feel like someone to be pitied whenever someone spoke like that to her. She didnβt like it. βItβs how things are. My family committed treason. It would be worse if we were all executed.β Mita said, doing her best to end the conversation. βIf its not too invasive, could I ask what did your family doβ¦?β βYou can ask.β Mita immediately went back to being quiet. Technically Hu was higher rank, so she shouldnβt talk to him like this, but she knew he pitied her too much to ever report her for this. Her grandmother didnβt do anything too serious, just openly disagreed with any type of monarchy or caste system. The nobility didnβt like that kind of talk, and demoted her grandmother and her entire family to the lowest rank to keep them quiet. Mita had only been a child back then. Everyday she wondered what life could be like if things were different. βThis way.β Mita said. They had reached the flower port. Pink flowers blossomed across the entire port, filling the air with the heady scent of pollen. Petals flew through the air and landed in the bright blue sea. It was a picture from paradise. Mita hated to say it, but she would miss this island. Too bad they had to leave.

Ouch, I hate brain freeze π

Guys should I redesign the lad in my profile pic to look a bit more like me? He's kind of a selfsona at this point, exept he looks nothing like me
-
That sucks, sorry to hear that. I can relate to everyone talking constantly though, I know how you feel. I'm sure it'll get better eventually for you (or at least you'll get a bit more used to it).
-
I'd say yes

The one time I used krita for animation I couldn't download ffmeg properly, resulting in me having to do an animatic instead because I couldn't export the animation, and my files being clogged with failed ffmeg files that didn't download properly πππππππ/lh
-
I don't know how it works, but for some reason 12 frames is a little too short for me π I think it's just because all together the key frames and transition frames were 15 frames, any less and It would be weirdly chunky
-
I did a little test, and it's like ice cat said, if you're using 12fps then you need about fifteen frames to make a relatively chunky but normal speed 1 second animation. Test.mp4

BUT NOT LIKE AN APPLE I MEANT THE RAW ONION IS CUT UP AND I EAT THAT Just clarifying

Lilytuft, you could use the 1985 windows paint program and your art would still end up looking like the Mona Lisa of all art
-
Yeah this is like super on hold at the moment, but pretty important exams are happening irl right now, so I may not be able to continue this for another week. After that I'll probably be able to continue. Maybe.
