8/30/24 - "Shorts, Storyboards and Screenshots"

Hello, Noah G Winnerman here of Winnerman Studios©️ and Krugston Incorporated™️ (a subsidiary of Krugston Media©️™️) coming to you hot and steamy from an aggressively different week than normal.

For those that are following the most recent developments of the channel, you may have noticed some new content on your feed from yours truly (that's me).

As Krugston keeps getting bigger, I've needed an easier way to put myself out there while production continues on big projects like Krugston. So starting last week, I've posted 3 new shorts onto the channel that I'm really proud of and can't wait to make more!

This isn't replacing any long form content that I have planned for the channel, but I may take an afternoon or two a week to animate a new short for you to watch while you eat or shit.

I've felt really weird about having my persona represent me AND be it's own cartoon character for a while now, so I pulled the trigger and started from scratch on something that I feel represents me and can be separate from the show : )

Concept art for my new persona!

Now for the stuff you actually care about- EPISODE 2 UPDATE!

It's looking good 👍

Thanks for readi-- sike...

With the exception of how long production is taking, I'm very pleased with how episode 2 is coming along.

Most environments are finished and ready to go (apartment interior and parts of Dasher's room are still very much in progress) and all rigs and character textures have been ported to their new and improved systems which will make it easier to animate and adjust moving forward! (IK changes on the rigs, new and improved layering system for textures)

Take a look!

Episode 2 title drop - pretty clean, right?

WIP shots of the apartment interior - lots to be done but if I lock in could probably get it done in 3 days (I am cocky).

I usually sketch the inside of any building before I start modeling so I understand what it has to accommodate, check it out!

Lots of fun details I want to cram in there, gonna invest a good amount of time into the stairway and laundry room to make it feel as lived in as possible.

Annnd that's about it! There's plenty more to share, but we're gonna hold off for now until next blog post so you don't start yawning.

Thanks for reading, talk soon!
