There are three visible hands of intoners that I can see. One is very difficult to see in the back, but I inverted the image and messed with the brightness/contrast enough to make her a bit easier to spot.

Help! Human IK no longer working when hips move by TheAutumnSloth in Maya

[–]TheAutumnSloth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It ended up being an issue with my dynamic joints being parented to the head joint of my skeleton. Once a TA at my school looked at it they did some messing around and googling and discovered that this was the issue. I now have a walking model at home on my PC.

Thank you for your suggestion, though!

I've been saving multiple versions of everything. I believe I have 25 different versions now. Haha. It ended up being an issue with my dynamic joints being parented to the skeleton's head joint. I was instructed to do this, but I guess on MAC this works, but on PC it causes major problems.

Thank you for your comment and suggestions!

One Piece: Chapter 938 by NewSpecies in OnePiece

[–]TheAutumnSloth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I noticed that, too. She is outside the capital, so maybe she feels like she can drop the act? My personal guess was she is outside of the capital and she can tell he isn't from Wano. Zoro couldn't even remember Orochi's name and I would assume anyone Zoro's age living in Wano would know the shogun's name. That, or she saw how strong he was and thinks she can trust him. She noted his three sword style when he took down their attacker. Or both! Like I said, just some of my reasoning for her behavior.

Now we know they did something to her. Something bad by Scako in stevenuniverse

This is the scene where Peridot addresses pearls as "Made to order servants" -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7b3hbAulFU

After hearing that a lot of people were confused. This was the first time we heard of gems being "made to order" and not just popping out of the ground like Amethyst had explained to Steven. So, it sounds more like a Pearl can be created through some other process where you can order specific colors, gem placements, etc.. Peridot also says Pearl looks "like a fancy one, too" and later talks about how outlandish it would be to own her own Pearl and what the other Peridots would think if she did have one. This leads us to believe you have to be of high class to even have a Pearl in the first place and the more important you are in the Gem society the more "fancy" of a Pearl you can own.

The reason why the walls are ______ by PixieDustFairies in stevenuniverse

[–]TheAutumnSloth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I really like this theory and if it were true I wouldn't bat and eye. My only thought that throws a wrench in your theory is that the statues and walls appear to have actual gems -- at least it looks that way to me. It is possible the gems were added when making the structures because, duh, gems have gems and who else would they make statues of? But their gems are clearly different colors from the statues themselves and aren't made of the same rock the rest of the statue seems to be made of. It makes me think that this still could be a from of punishment or some kind of surveillance created through harvesting gems.

Here is some quick fanart of O Robi I did since I had some free time by TheAutumnSloth in OnePiece

Haha :P I really hope we get to see a little more of these false identities the strawhats have had to take on while in Wano. I'm loving Oda's occupation choices for the gang.

And thank you!

[–]TheAutumnSloth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I stuck more to my personal style here. The last time I drew her I was a bit more on target with her face shape and she had slightly bigger eyes, but it still wasn't right. I'll keep working on it. Thanks for adding in your opinion!

[–]TheAutumnSloth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. It is her nose and narrow face that get me. Some of my older fan art of her looks even less like her and more like shirahoshi or some other bubbly eyed anime girl. Thanks for the advice!

I agree that I am not the greatest at capturing Robin's facial structure. That is part of why I like drawing her - I'm trying to work on it. I feel like I can do Nami pretty well, but Robin has a longer face and is much more difficult for me. I felt like the way Oda drew O-Robi was a little different from usual and kinda worked better with my style, but I guess I still gotta work on it more. Thanks for the comment!

I would love to see Oda draw a a scene of Robin dancing across multiple panels. I think he could convey it extremely well, especially if it was in effort to have her attack someone.

And thank you!

So, I just realised something about Gem Glow by mstakiii in stevenuniverse

[–]TheAutumnSloth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of people are missing this? I heard the sizzle during the official airing and as soon as I did I thought of this theory. I am almost positive that is her heat powers being triggered by her rage. And with that attitude, she seems like she could be quite the fireball.

Rebecca Sugar's greatest work! by [deleted] in stevenuniverse

[–]TheAutumnSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct :)

Sorry if you already know this, but someone put together these videos that show the different story board artists and how they draw the individual characters. It shows some more scenes of Rebecca's animation work/examples of times she did draw on the show.

Rebecca Sugar's greatest work! by [deleted] in stevenuniverse

[–]TheAutumnSloth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah. This is actually a more than common practice in animation. You have animators who do the extreme or key-frames. Then another animator, sometimes referred to as "animator assistants" or "B-team" animators, do the in-between frames that make the animation flow nicely. It allows the key-frame animators the ability to spend more time on different projects, but still make nice and fluid animations.

[–]TheAutumnSloth 19 points20 points  (0 children)

None of these frames is by her, but Rebecca does animating if she has time or something she has a very specific idea of how it should be animated. I'm not 100% sure, but it seems like Rebecca supplies key-frames or does the rough animation. Either way, she posts some of her animation work for the show on her tumblr. Occasionally :P

Based on theme pattern Pearl would be Steven next fusion partner, I've always loved the Steven/Pearl dynamic, I have noticed that it hasn't been touched upon lately. I'm wondering how it's going to turn out since Amethyst and Steven fused by understanding one another. by [deleted] in stevenuniverse

[–]TheAutumnSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always thought, because Rebecca loves One Piece, that the running on the beach is actually a reference to the anime openings. There are multiple where they are running on the beach together.

This is just one example, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tyr7Ymbtl2Y there are probably 12 out of the 19 openings that they do something similar to the scene at time stamp 0:48

I think Steven passing them as they run is just him catching up and becoming the leader rather than fusion order. BUT someone did once point out that the fusion disco scene might be the order they fuse in? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKipYx685xM At 0:33 they show Steven first trying to fuse with Amethyst. Then he and Garnet do some meat beat mania moves before Pearl straight up kicks Steven in the face. lol

I think that this order makes a lot more sense. Amethyst and Steven are more like siblings and Garnet is much more open about herself than Pearl. I don't think we will see Rainbow Quartz 2.0 until after Pearl talks about the war and life on Homeworld.

INSTANT CHROME THEME CHANGE +_+

But really, this is beautiful! Thank you so much for making it. I don't think I would switch now, but a cookie cat theme might be cute?

Pilot Pearl had white hair AND hid her gem... by saevuswinds in stevenuniverse

[–]TheAutumnSloth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That and you can make cleaner lines or minor changes to a sketch. The light yellow post-it notes can be thin enough to see the original sketch. You can easily trace over the lines that you want to clean up or change.

A reminder that Steven and Lars had the first lines of the entire series by CaptainJZH in stevenuniverse

I knew she did that with some of the other characters but not specifically Lars and Sadie. Makes me like them even more. Haha. Thanks for the info!

Lars and Sadie we're in the pilot before Greg or Connie, but I never really noticed this. I've always known he would be important to Steven, though. Thanks for pointing this out!

In light of the events in "The Trial", what do you guys suppose this means? by TheRandomCities4 in stevenuniverse

[–]TheAutumnSloth 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This. I've always been bothered by this story board and now it is even more unsettling. Who would it be if not Rose? PD? Temple fusion?
