Jolxea Gets Toyed With (Extended Edit)
Added 2023-02-25 19:09:46 +0000 UTCHeyo! This month's "short edit" is actually longer than the finished animation (that's how it be sometimes). In the link below you'll find a 3:25 runtime animation of my OC Jolxea getting toyed with by a cave troll or something. Presented in 4k 60fps from about 7 camera angles, as well as some raw frame images (i.e. as it came off the render engine). It may look a little stiff but that's because there's only actually 2-3 seconds of movement to work with here. There is a story behind that...
So, back in the fall of 2022 Chopped Onions asked if I had a longer version of an animation I did a few years back (Jolxea + Green Troll), which originally started as a 2 second gif. As it turned out I had rendered out 7 or so camera angles but never made a long/final edit out of it all. The catch, is that I had only keyframed about 108 frames (i.e. about 2-3 seconds of actual movement). So, a very short animation from many different angles. The challenge then was how much could I squeeze out of 108 frames from 7 cameras? As it turns out, I can turn that into 3 minutes and 25 seconds.
I spliced and diced in the editor, added voice assets from the voice actress who plays Jolxea that I had on the shelf, and most importantly, Chopped Onions was kind enough to sponsor a few new fun lines from her. I am very grateful for that and this was a fun little exercise to go through.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy it, and I should note that there were two more sets that patrons sponsored extra Jolxea lines for, which I expect to do the editing for in the near future (Jolxea Ground and Pound + Jolxea Mushroom BJ).

Thank you very much for the kind words I very much appreciate it! I love working with Jolxea and it was fun to finally flesh out this set, even though it took much longer than I had planned. Thank you as well for helping to sponsor the extra lines that added more flavour to this one. They helped to bring her from "How did it come to this?" to "Oh, this is fun!" to "I am hungry. Bring me to food!" lol it's a great emotional arc for her.
