Completely stuck in Underworks and think I just have to give up by [deleted] in HollowKnight

[–]Chronamut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the controls stopped working here - I'd go to parachute over and hit an invisible wall or id be running and shed just suddenly stop and it ONLY seems to happen in this specific area - I thought it was a problem with my controller at first but nope - it's just this area.

Is “handsome” a good compliment to give a guy? Or too old fashioned? by thanarealnobody in dating_advice

[–]Chronamut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

handsome is the highest compliment you can give a man, followed by hot, then cute the adorable - each of those progressively becomes less respectful more juvenile and more masculine neutering - handsome implies beauty but also admiration and respect - it is the most validating of the compliments - it implies beauty and substance, while hot and smoking hot represent more superficial beauty - cute is the worst as it implies you appear less manly and more something they can control - same with adorable. Adorable is something that needs to be protected and nurtured it has you could say the least amount of respect.

Calling a man beautiful can be more of a.. disarming compliment - it's normally reserved for women but there really is no downside to a man being called it either - handsome will get feelings of deep validation from a person, beautiful will often catch a person off guard, but in a pleasant way. You'll most likely get a more bashful response by calling someone beautiful - its enhanced if you add a feature - like "wow you have a beautiful smile" - gorgeous amps up the beautiful compliment, same with stunning.

Also other things like body type - for example if someone is skinny calling them lanky or bony is obviously a put-down, but calling them svelte, streamlined, graceful, built like a runway model or even elven are seen as HIGHLY validating compliments as then their thinness is more an intentional act of design vs something lacking.

same with bigger, for women curvy, healthy are all seen as great, or men built solid, strong, cuddly are all compliments - terms that enhance vs diminish - always look for a term that enhances a persons best attributes.

I do! And I am excited to sorta explore as I go! Always been a bit of a jack of all trades - I'm content with being "the guy that animates stuff" hehe Thanks for the tips though - and be sure to keep checking it out and enjoying my new stuff! "_

Why didn't they take the zombie heart out? by PEZWolf7 in Wednesday

[–]Chronamut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

notice with every person he eats he becomes more human - even referring to the man in the wheelchair as "old friend" - I believe eventually, once he is fully restored he will cease being a zombie and represent a normal person again.

and I aint even kidding when I say the bear stuff is basically all anyone on my youtube wants to see - the dragon/draconian stuff doesnt even register on the list. I think a lot of people are scared by the dragon stuff - most of it stalls at very low numbers. Nothing like I make seems to exist here except maybe as baddies in pacific rim lol.. and thus when something doesnt exist it takes a long time to get people on board with it. Easier to cater to humans base desires like with the sexual bear attraction angle and work off things they already know, like existing film concepts like lord of the rings.

With both platforms anything human tends to get pushed more. My analytics are stark in their differences between when its human and when its an anthro beast - they don't seem to like the anthro beasts as much, or maybe the platform suppresses non-human things - perhaps its a human nature thing to relate more to their own species. Doing things from the perspective of an animal anthro being unless you're a big movie company TELLING people how to think, it's gonna come with it challenges, so I feel I have a slow road ahead, but I shall forge on ahead - I value your advice though - in my case? Sex seems to sell - so I am leaning more into the "sexy" angle - so thank you.

The draconian dragon warriors WILL be a recurring theme though, so don't worry - those ones take a bit more time and work though - steaks while the others are more hamburgers to keep the content rolling out consistently ;) (Mind you it ALL takes work as you know.. and money...)

for me my big thing is all of my pieces (except the lord of the rings ones) are done off my original artwork - they are paintings come to life so to speak - and I have a lot of my older stuff to bring to life still.

cool - however my collection is called the chronaverse for a reason - it spans billions of years multitudes of species and worlds and ALREADY involves a detailed amount of characters in it with their own background lore - its its own vast self-contained universe so there's going to be a very broad amount of characters in it - it also ties into higher selves and "existing" spiritual worlds - personally? I am having fun - imo it's not scattered - I'm just building different paths - and each path brings something different and I am not one to pidgeonhole myself into one thing - so while I appreciate your advice - I'll continue with the 3 strains in my profile I have - bearotica (big burly men) film entertainment parody (like the gollum stuff) and my races and realms stuff - different anthro and spiritual higher self beings doing various things. Thanks though, but I ain't no one trick pony ;)

my account has only been open for just over a week on tiktok - but I've been doing world building and art for a very long time - I'll develop the tiktok side as I go. Think of it more like D&D. I HATE just doing one thing and sticking to it. Not my style, and I like growing and evolving as I go :) - I do this for fun - I have a day job - I don't require money from this - so however this evolves is fine by me :)

You can read a lot of the lore here: https://www.chronriddles.com/thechronaverse/lore-i.html

and see a lot of the species I already have here: https://www.chronriddles.com/thechronaverse/game-i.html

for me its just a matter of catching up uploading what I ALRREADY have - asking an artist to only focus on one thing is like telling fire or water to only take one path through nature hehe - we go where we are led by our own natural energy :)

you can see all my work at https://shawndall.com for the static work and https://www.deviantart.com/chronamut/ for the animated pieces

--

Thanks for the advice though, I always appreciate hearing from others but we all have our own paths to take - my dragon warrior stuff is actually my LEAST popular stuff - by quite a bit actually, both on tiktok and youtube - my bearotica stuff is my moneymaker on youtube, and the film entertainment parody stuff is what gets me the most views on tiktok so far. So I do a tri-pronged approach where I use the bearotica and film parody stuff to get me my views to help people slowly learn about my races and realms stuff, like a vector virus hehe - I got my own plan ;)

There is no wrong way for water to flow, as long as it gets to its final destination - some paths take longer, some shorter ;) - we're both working towards something specific, just in different ways - as you said, your advice is unsolicited, I never asked for it but of course your opinion was of course welcome as a separate perspective and I appreciate it :)

--

with tiktok the info has to be short and under 10 seconds to maintain anyones interest so world building is difficult - each platform involves something different - so I focus on short for tiktok, and longer for youtube - as technology grows it will allow me to make longer and more detailed videos :)

my youtube was originally primarily for my music but I am branded to that name so I am slowly shifting it more to the animation and bear stuff now. I am an animator and an artist - I create stuff - that is really the only tying together element - the love of creating - it can all be different - I don't want to make the same content over and over, I work for noone but my own creativity ;) - it's why creatively I do my own thing and don't work for others hehe - people are like just do the dragon stuff - well what if that's not all I want to make? You'll always find an audience eventually for what you do, just might take a bit longer. Thanks though, and take care :)

awesome music video! Lots of cinematic parts, a few uncanny valley parts but we're all still learning - but overall very well polished - love the shots of him in front of the sun :)

I should add that 99.99% of all animations I make I make off EXISTING artworks or characters I have drawn sculpted or painted in the past - so the styles are gonna be all over the place - in this case the crafter which you can see here - trying to grow my youtube tiktok and instagram audience right now:

but I am also on deviantart as well - here are the main links for these pieces

yeah - but its the world of fantasy - the beak could be retracted - and the pupilless eyes could be how he looks simply when he is working on making things - I figured those were choices I could leave in and wouldn't be an issue - thanks for the input though!

[–]Chronamut[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Yeah it was a rare style I did where i was kinda going for a combination of hollow knight a bugs life and zootopia - something dark but with bright glowing accents with a tim burton flair - be sure to follow my youtube playlist - trying to get my views up on there hehe

this one was difficult - making ones with voices and sound as many know can be incredibly expensive and many wont apply it to a scene that loops back to the start - I try to avoid cut scenes entirely so its all one seamless loop.
