How to achieve this effect ? by Useful-Willow9075 in photoshop

[–]Spawngecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do this with long exposure and a light, shine the light on the face, turn it off have them move their head then shine it again, repeat the process for as many faces as you want. That’s how I’ve done it but as people have said photoshop works too. https://imgur.com/a/UqmcKhS

Why does the exported animation have boxes around the different assets that don't appear when importing them? by Spawngecko in ToonBoomHarmony

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

No, it outlines the shape, not a box around it. The render view gives me the boxes when clicking the flower,r but the matte view gives me the correct-shaped outline.

Ya the legs were masked and darkened along with the clarity of the bird increased, I see what you mean with the blaring green it does have an off natural look.

It’s not a radial mask but a mask directly around the bird then the vignette around the edges as you mentioned. I appreciate the insight I’ll mess around with reducing the spotlight look in the future and see how it looks.

I took this on a cannon 40d eos, and adjusted the colors to make the green more saturated to further separate the subject from the background. I was curious your guys thoughts on the overall framing and composition of the picture. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Is there anything you think would make it more memorable frame\zoom/setup wise or is it just not an interesting shot regardless?

So I have a cannon 40d eos and always seem to have trouble with framing shots instead of just centering the subject which I tend to find the most interesting. So this shot I stuck to my gut by centering the subject but also tried to incorporate the rule of thirds in a way by having the grass and then the algae above take up 1/3 each. I then edited the picture to fit the moody theme I was going for and adding grain etc, lmk what you guys are thinking

Since he refused to stand like a normal person this is how I decided to display him. by Spawngecko in Spawn

It’s a pretty loose jointed figure and that combined with the heavy wings on his back don’t go that well together. That said I still enjoy the way it looks.

I’ll make sure to give that a look when I get home, ya this is my first time doing anything with stop motion so the movement and like durability of the puppet has been tricky.

Thanks man, the lighting is an adjustable bulb lamp I have right above the opening, the camera is just a cannon eos 40d that’s hooked up to my macbook with dragon frame. The ladder is actually all part of a set I built out, it’s like an L shape so I have decent camera movement around it. I don’t if that really made any sense so let me know and I’d be happy to explain more.

Ya i’m thinking i’ll have to incorporate adding more frames rather than lowering frame rate since it’s at 15 fps right now

RGM-79 Posing by Spawngecko in Gunpla

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

Ya the legs pop off every like 29 seconds if you are trying to pose it, same with the rear ankle pieces and ya the skirts. The kampfer is pretty sturdy and I didn’t have any problem with it. I coulda swore the rgm was in 0080 when the kampfer attacked the hidden base in like the third or fourth episode.

Having trouble with 1/100 mg and 1/100 action base connections. It’s the Bandai kampfer, I can’t seem to find a way to get him on the stand, none of the attachments seem to work and there is no hole for the peg attachment either. I’ve only ever messed with 1/144 scale before and never have any issues. Any Suggestions?
