Hannah's musings and website update log.

  • Totoro WIP Animation

    Made a gif compilation of the steps I saved while I was working on this. Because it was such a big piece, I didn’t want to screw it up without the ability to back out XD I kept changing my mind about the colours and added a final colour adjustment at the end to better fit the atmosphere <_<

    Also, I think I forgot to post an update when I did a bunch of new plushie items at the beginning of this month, so if you haven’t looked at it since then, there should be more in there XD

    Been busy with work again, so updates probably won’t be that frequent D: But I’ll try to get things done in between.

  • Plushie Maker Update

    I’ve added more items to the plushie maker over the last day. Now you can make a lion plushie ^^

    Lion plushie White rabbit plushie Steampunk rabbit plushie Purple rabbit plushie Goggles Neck ribbon Cloak Messenger bag Fluffy bunny ears Lop bunny ears Lion mane

    Finally managed to get a cloak and goggles in there too X3

    Today is also the last day for the current giftbox drop rates. They won’t come as frequently, but they will still appear. Hopefully I can finish integrating my star catching game soon, they should be easy to win ^^

  • Catching Stars WIP

    Started this a little while ago XD There are several things that are subject to change, but it’s at least playable for now. I’m hoping to have prizes when you get x amount of points, but I still have to code that yet.

    Use ‘a’ to move left and ‘d’ to move right.

    Made using the GameQuery JS game engine X3 Sorry, no sound, because it’s kinda laggy – it’s BYO music <w<

    Oh, I thought I should also mention, that I’ve changed the giftbox drop rate a little. They now have the chance of appearing at any time of the year, but they won’t be as common as in December.

  • Winter’s Warmth Process

    Thought I’d post this, seeing as I took some screenshots XD I didn’t have a lot of time to do this, so it’s not very clean in some areas.

  • Plushie Maker Update

    Made a few cosmetic changes to the plushie maker – the palette changer is now made of little stars! XD I’ve also changed the menu to show as icons and shifted some of the items around, so the page won’t stretch as much (ears/tails are now under separate tabs).

    Bear with wings plushie

    As you can see from the plushie above, the alternate wing colours are working now too. I forgot to switch the layer extras on when I added them before <w<;;

    And lastly I modified the randomiser a little, because the extras weren’t randomising properly D: The frequency of them has increased as well.

  • Ethereal Artbook Preview

    Finished up the picture I was working on for the Ethereal Artbook project on Deviantart. You can see the preview below~

    Ethereal Artbook Deviantart

    Spent time on and off for the better part of this week. It’s the first full background I’ve drawn in a while and has two characters in it. I loooove drawing greenery XD

    Yesterday I added a page to the pixel art menu, that shows all of the plushies that have been made ^^ It updates automatically, whenever someone makes a new one.

    I’m going to have to figure out where to put that page permanently (yes, it may move), because I want to finish a mini game I’ve been working on, which you’ll be able to win plushies from.

  • Plushie Maker Watermark

    It saddens me that I have to post this, but there’s always one person that spoils it for everyone.

    Masked plushie

    Over the last few days, my sister found someone claiming them as their own and selling plushies made on her maker. So we added a signature to hers and she has taken it down for now. I’ve added a watermark to mine too. I’ll see what I can do to make it blend in better, but for now, it’s pretty obvious ^^;

    Last night I added a few more items – namely a medical patch, pirate eyepatch, <3 <3 eyes and n_n eyes~

  • Plushie Maker Update

    Updated the pixel gallery with two new pieces. And the plushie maker has had a few items added over the last week ^^

    Luna icon Mimi icon Blue angel cat plushie Dark plushie Green kitty plushie Grey angel plushie Pikachu plushie Pink bear plushie Rainbow plushie Sad kitty plushie White kitty plushie

    I’ve added a tail for the clever person that managed to create one of my favourite game characters with it XD

    If anyone has any item requests, I may be able to do them in between other projects ^^ Hopefully I can actually build a gallery that will showcase some of them, so that everyone else can see too.

  • Fiery Aristocrat WIP

    Took some screenshots – I like taking these even just for my use XD Sometimes I try different things, so it’s nice to have shots of the progress. I originally didn’t like the sketch, or the first couple of steps XD But I decided to force myself to finish it.

    Screenshots of the process for Fiery Aristocrat

    Some people start with a greyscale painting and then colour it, but I usually like working in colour early, because I like colour? >>

  • New OC Poses

    Added about 20 new poses to the Obviously Chibi base. I’ve also separated some faces out, so it should be easier to swap them around.

    OC Poses

    I think there are about 50 poses in total now XD Feel free to mix and match arms/legs/faces to make new poses or bigger/smaller groups.

    Aand above are a few more plushies that have been made XD I might keep posting some every so often, or at least while the random encounter is active (for the month of December).
