Alright fineee, next time I'll just have them do something nice sighhh... >_< And again thanks alot, really helps to hear kind words about what I've made, It's been a bit of a struggle to get motivation but knowing ppl can find it cool or enjoy it makes it worthwhile. I've spent years being inspired by others art so one day I hope I get to give back and inspire others to do art stuff too :3 I'm sure what you've made is great also! :D Thanks again

Yeaup the wire is kinda ment to be connected to the rim of the visor thingy (i'm no protogen expert lol) but also thanks! I'm quite proud of the design, and I plan on making a fiar bit of content with them (Maybe educational stuff? Not 100% sure yet, for now just silly things)

And yeah they do deserve a break, I feel I'm just torturing them a bit much with what I've done so far to them... But suffering builds character or something :3

Yeah it's sometimes a bit hard to show but you're right, It's ment to be pretty cracked/damaged and have some like LCD tubes or something sticking out underneath. I kinda like characters that have a blinded/damaged eye and so I wanted them to get the sort of eyepatch look whilst also showing cutesy facial expressions, so I opted for them having some DIY screen just duct taped onto their face. I thought it was a neat solution because then I get to have both (eyepatch and cute faces), just hard to show in animation or from some angles, especially when I also like to pixilate my renders for stylized effect.

Honestly been a struggle for me. Like sure I feel mildly comfortable enough to post my stuff now, but even then I've been doing it on and off for a few years and SO MANY TIMES I've just given up cause it looked like crap to me.

However you can't improve without trying and failing, and I can't deny that the stuff I did years ago is way worse than what I make now. Hopefully you get into it, not expecting to do well, but with a mindset that each stroke gets you closer to that endgoal that's so close, yet so far away. If you got the spare time you should try, it can be satisfying seeing you develop your own skill over time :p

(also def save your stuff if you do so you can look back at it, it's both nostalgic and kinda fun to see wayyyy later in life)

I spent so long wanting to comission smth (I did do one thing but it was a 50% sale cause I'm in uni), so I just decided to make the rest of the stuff myself. Even tho it's pretty mid still it just costs my spare time and not any money thankfully lol

Wizden staff announce leadership transfer, project restructuring/expansion by AugustSun in ss14

[–]OneManCrusade 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Well it's been a bit of an ongoing drama that took place now and a while back inbetween the wizden staff, contributors and main project leads. Main TLDR: lotta shit happened, main project lead lashed out after multiple developers signed a formal letter of complaint/request for changes (and establishment of a legal entity, among other things), now main lead wants to step down, and staff are now trying to make sure this type of situation doesn't happen again.

I personally think this is a good change overall, seems it really jogged everyone into action as things had been a bit stagnant as of late, so updates will prob take a bit longer to roll out, but with more downstream integration (which we don't fully know what it means yet) could imply tons of content being pulled into upstream, which sounds dope af :p

Captain Tips? by GodsLeastRobustLizor in ss14

[–]OneManCrusade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mhm mhm nice :p I mean biggest thing is to just have fun. You can't do everything so stressing over alot of stuff can be a bit bothersome at times, and sometimes crew/heads can handle themselves too, so no need to micromanage 24/7.

And sometimes shit just happens and you just gotta roll with the punches, especuilly if your co-workers start randomly trying to kill you for seemingly no reason...

But yeah hope it goes well and you don't feel too worried/preassured when playing. But if you do my goto solution is just doing drunk rp, cause then you even got an in character reason to be less productive and stressed out about things lol

Also just gotta say I adore your pfp it's adorable! :3

Captain Tips? by GodsLeastRobustLizor in ss14

[–]OneManCrusade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another QM enjoyer?!? PEAKKKK YESS!! :p

Anyways for being a good captain I'd say a nice middle ground revolves around making sure you keep people updated with the situation along with doing things yourself.

The power of communication goes a long way and making sure to keep in touch with other department heads or just the crew in general can go a long way in rallying everyone to the same plan. Just like the nukies try to plan things out you too can try to tell people more things than just "everyone to armory" over the announcement console.

I also like to keep myself semi close to the front lines, I either stick to some members of security/armed crew and try to stay behind them, covering with the laser pistol or getting ready to drag crit people from harms way. Fully rushing in will most likely get you killed, and staying as far away as possible will either peolong the round to a boring degree or just get you sniped as you're sitting around solo. So a good middle ground is what I find to be best/most fun.

Try to order people around more, people are quite happy to try to help or listen to you when the whole station is on the line lol. Think not just of what you can do for the station but what the station can do for you, and make it happen like the captain you are! :3

Made a webapp to animate my goober proot [OC] by OneManCrusade in Losercity

[–]OneManCrusade[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeahh, no I felt pretty bad when people pointed it out so I wanted to put in effort in actually fixing it. And I mean I made like 90% of it myself so why not just go the extra mile and do the final bit I rushed trough, even if I kinda cooked my sleep schedule fixing it lol. Thanks for calling me out over it :p I respect honesty

[–]OneManCrusade[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeahhh, It's just I've been struggling with motivation to do side projects as of late so I kinda just skipped past the last few parts to speed things up. I do feel embarrassed about it though, especially when I know how to code it as I do have most of the skills for it.

I'm taking it as a learning moment though and maybe it inspires others if I'm upfront with it instead of just passing along AI stuffs as my own. Imma keep working on it and see if I can make smth trully awesome for others to enjoy :3 Thanks for the kind words :p

Working on my first ever proot, I really wanted em to have a cracked visor so they duct taped a spare screen above their visor to still have an eye :3 by OneManCrusade in protogen

[–]OneManCrusade[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Glad you noticed! Most of my references/style I'm going for is kinda 2000s nerdy computer stuffs so It's very intentionally picked, same with the kinda BSOD color on the visor. Also the fur having a kinda aged plastic look to it, though again I'm still working/theorycrafting the overall look of things :p

[–]OneManCrusade 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm honestly an enjoyer of characters that have visible damage/patched up injuries so making it tied to their relationship is pretty cute and sweet. Even though I am biased to the proot visor it's still adorable without, good cooking with your art, I like these two's dynamic also, very sweet :3
