The Petalburg Deepwoods
zhlédnutí 437Před 10 měsíci
Take a jaunt through the deepest parts of Petalburg Woods with the Mushroom Pokemon, Breloom. I did some rough animation of Breloom a couple weeks back, and ended up liking it so much that I wanted to elevate it with a few extra bells and whistles. Enjoy!

  • @SaHaMaHa98
    @SaHaMaHa98 Před 4 měsíci

    The first and second stages were great! I think you captured the vibes really well. I loved that you kept the last water and grass evos animalistic and how the fire starter was evident from the very beginning to be and stay biped. Speaking of Caprastrophe, I get pseudo legendary vibes from the line. While the first two stages fit starters perfectly I think the last evo is bit too menacing. Caprastrophe gives mayor pseudo vibes and would look right at home next to Hydreigon. Mosstodian is a great design but a bit complex. He almost looks legendary in that regard. However, if you keep the upcoming designs more mature and more detailed as well then these critiques will be null as those are stylistic choises. Anyway, looking forward to seeing more!

      I forgot to say in this video, Divinale/The World is also a Legendary! Albeit a lower-power one. I would like to design some more traditional legendaries moving forward though. I don't know which ones I'll choose yet, but I do intend to throw some into the mix! 🤘

    • @ardentROB
      @ardentROB Před 6 měsíci

      I animate my renders in Toonboom Harmony 22! The program is a bit expensive though, so I'd recommend looking into other options. I've heard of one called "AnimeEffects" that can do similar animation, and the artist "cursedeye.mon" has a link to a free course listed on her in page to help people learn it :)

  • @andrade9172
    @andrade9172 Před 7 měsíci

    Somebody might have asked already, but do you know JoJo by any means? Sorry lol, a real question now, the major arcana has a limited number of cards, will you design only that much pokemon? Or will you expand into other tarot decks in case the project grows bigger?

    • @ardentROB
      @ardentROB Před 7 měsíci

      LOL I have definitely been made aware of the Jo of Jos! 😂 For your other question, I think it will depend from card to card: For some of the major arcana I've already covered, I've designed entire 3-stage evolutionary lines, such as with the starters. Others might only be represented by a single 'mon, such as The Fool and The World from this vid. There are a lot of ways to establish pokemon relationships though, so the sky is the limit! If I have the time and inspiration, it may be fun to explore some of the minor arcana as well, but for now, my attention is turned towards getting through the big 22 :)

      Apologies- I had already completed the designs for this batch by the time you made those suggestions. I'm also going to keep the arcana as original concepts as much as I can (my own preference) but I'd like to explore convergent/regional variants as a separate topic sometime down the line! 🤘

    @shizathoth4534 Před 9 měsíci

    My favorite of this video is certainly the Magician line. You hit a good balance between spooky and creepy, which is what makes Ghost tied with Dragon as my favorite type. Of course, the other line isn’t too far behind, and I could see it being sort of like Togepi and Larvesta in how you get it early on, but they are harder to evolve than other early game mons. Although design wise I could even see them being a minor legendary or a mythical. Both are locks for my hypothetical team.

    • @ardentROB
      @ardentROB Před 9 měsíci

      Good to see you again! Managing the balance of Ghosts was tougher than I thought, and the Normal type definitely threw a wrench into that more than I thought it would, so I'm glad it sits right for you! You're also pretty dead-on with the Fool-World line being a minor legendary, as I wanted it to be strong when fully evolved, but not to overshadow a whole team. Keep it harmonious, yknow? Genuinely excited to see how the team fleshes out as this continues 🙏

    Really strong concepts, i like them a lot, a few criticisms i hope can be helpful is that the lil elephant buddies proportions seems a bit off for a starter and the fire buddies mischievous smile is sort of hard to interpret, me and my friends look at fakemon designs often on a few of us (me included) saw it as some sort of tooth or horn, especially since fire buddy is a bit evocative of a goat. I love the snail though you don't really see that as started animal very unique

    Awesome,as a tarot card reader,I could say this was awesome,as for the starters,it was funny the water and fire starters in their first form I got in terms of the major arcana,the grass i thought was going to be based on either the fool or the emperor,the fool cause of it's reckless nature,and the emperor cause i was thinking of it evolving into an elderly elephant who was like I gotta grow up and can't be that reckless,obey the rules,create structure,being an authority,being a protector/leader(all traits of the emperor),it's interesting cause the hierophant could be similar in terms of creating structure(but the other main ideas deal with groups/systems like churches,court systems,and the other key trait I think of is belief systems/cultural heritage)

    How would anyone animate Rashcal`s face (especially the mouth) in 3D? Also, the 1st stage look like a 2nd stage and the 3rd stage are way too complicated, the designs are way too busy. Pokemon does busy designs sometimes, yes, but they know how to make them. I would change your lines with the 1st stage being 2nd, creating new 1st stages and the third stages to be not so complicated.

I love your consepts, the art style very good, even if it is not much "pokemonish" in my opinion but that's just something that makes the whole more peculiar and enjoyable. You should definitely design 3 pseudo-legendaries lines based on other arcanas ( i personally would suggest the emperor, the death and the judgement) and a legendary based on the world

    I feel like Caprastrophe should've had some chains in their design. A chain was added in Culpyrine's design and kinda just dropped. Adding a bunch of chains could represent how Capra was falsely accused so many times that they just embraced what others thought of them and now they wear their evil on their sleeve.
