ZI-O Flash Belt Update 5/19

Mk the Zikan Despear update is out. Thankfully it was a lot nicer to work on than ZI-O Trinity.  A challenge I'll come across later though, when making the Despear I tried to make a keyframe on the Zikan Girade so I could use it as a base for the weapon. However because of all of the ridewat...

ZI-O Flash Belt Update 5/18 Part 2

Main vector and coloring are done. I have to do the words up top and then I'll code it. Hopefully I can get it done tomorrow, but it's time to sleep.

At work we have our regular 5 shows this week and I have to edit together 6 extra shows for the next week and the following Monday. That'd be...

ZI-O Flash Belt Update 5/18

The next ZI-O update will be the Zikan Despear. The Despear is vectored out from the bottom to the "apps." The Despear is vectored out from the bottom to the "apps." Once the rest is finished off, including all 3 modes, I'll recolor and code it.

The update was going to be additional details...

Zero-One Update 5/14

The sounds for the cyclone riser and final main legend rider keys have been ripped. I knocked out an update for Zero-One's flash.

Wasn't hard to do since I used my time at the end of April to set everything up for these guys to be released. That way I didn't have to spend time doing the vec...

Zero-One Update 5/9

The sounds have been ripped for the humagear headset and remaining weapons for zero-one. I've added "take off toward a dream" to the patreon page of the flash as a little easter egg. I still don't plan to add the weapons to 01.

The only one I'm even slightly considering is the Thousand Jack...

Update 5/4

Made and finished the Ohma ZI-O watch today. Decided to pop out the ZI-O update without recoloring Geiz Majesty since I'll be doing the recolor work on it once the opened vector is finished. New update also had Bibill and the Woz ridewatches in there.

A problem I came across was the Ziku Dr...

5/3 Update

I have a version of the ZI-O flash with Bibill, Geiz Majesty, and the regular Woz ridewatch running. Majesty has the look of Grand ZI-O but the code is all goin. I want to replace that vector with the closed Majesty one, get the official Woz armor bg in place, and get Ohma Form's ridewatch in bef...

5/2 Update

Ran into a big problem with ZI-O today. Seems that once the file size hits 100 mb dA doesn't want to show it anymore. I had to half the size of the ridewatch images thus shrinking their file sizes. However, that meant going through each instance an image is used in Flash and doubling the size so ...

Work for 4/30 & The Month Ahead

I was able to knock out the vectors for 6 progrise keys today. I was able to do Dynamaiting Lion, Scouting Panda, Exeedcharging Faiz, Clockupping Kabuto, Orevisiting Den-o, and Wakeupping Kiva.

It's kinda weird. I don't think I've had 10 placeholders in a flash before, but I wanted to try a...

Take the day off or....

After pushing through Rampage Gatling and the 4 new Legend Rider Keys, I thought about taking the day off... but I just knocked out the Raidriser vector instead.

I'm thinking about doing a version of the raidriser without the finisher like I had for the zetsumeriser.

May Flash Focus

As I said earlier in the month this flash focus will be slightly different. You'll be able to vote as many times as you want. I highly recommend only voting for the top two, or max three, that you want. The higher percentage of votes that a selection has will mean more time will be spent...

Rampage Gatling WIP 4/22

Rampage Gatling is coming along. The cover and back-end are done. I need to modify the back to connect the two pieces. Then I'll be able to recolor it and code.

Coding will be "fun" since there's so many features on it. My thoughts right now will be to just hardcode the "abilities" into eac...

Rampage Gatling Work 4/20

Been continuing work on Rampage Gatling. The gatling part is finished and I worked on the cover yesterday and today. The sounds were ripped today so they have been cut.

I've been trying to record every step of the way as a little extra for Legend Rider tier patrons. So once it's all finishe...

4/18 update

I've finished all of the progrise keys that have ripped sounds right now. Tomorrow I'll try and start work on Rampage Gatling. Man... I hate see-through plastic.

Flash Focus Poll Changes

I’m likely going to change how the flash focus poll works. Since Patreon already allows for multiple votes per poll I’m thinking about doing like a tiered system. This way you vote on all of the flashes you’d like to be a priority and I focus on the flashes in the order they are voted on. 2020-04-15 12:04:57 +0000 UTC View Post

MCH Update 4/10

The vector for metal cluser is finished.

I'm working on adding it to the flash now. I've encountered a challenge I didn't catch until about a day ago. Because the key has to go under the driver and the end piece has to go over I need to create a system where that's possible.

I want to...

Metal Cluster Work

Here's a look at how much of MCH is done. You can see on the closed section I have the orange outline. I'm using the footprint of the opened version to help guide the look of the closed one. I thought originally that I would be able to copy paste the 6 hoppers on the closed version but they're al...

Zero One 4/5 Update

Been trying to power through the Metal Cluster Hopper vector. The backplate is done. I was able to finish up the left and bottom parts of it today. Had to get some new sources to make the vector line up better. Thankfully the top and right sides are just using the regular backplate design.

...

April Flash Focus Winner and 4/3 Update

Zero-One gets to be the sole flash focus this month.

I'm one of the two people who have to go into work for our show still so my workdays are still there, but I was able to work on recoloring the force riser. I slid the cyclone riser vector into the flash so it's ready to go whenever the so...

April Flash Focus

The quarantine may continue, but so will the flash work. I knocked out Perfect Kingdom this month and have been working on Metal Cluster Hopper.

I've also been working on the vectors for Burning Falcon and Fighting Jackal so I can use those for the menu selection buttons for the Slash Riser...

3/21 update

The open version of the back half of metal cluster hopper is vectored out. I’ll have to do the front half and the closed version then I can work on it in the flash.

3/15 update

Been pushing through. Been a little hard with all of the craziness going on in the world right now with the pandemic, but I've got the vector finished and am working on importing it into Flash right now.

March 12 Update

Work in Perfect Kingdom continues. With the castle section done I’ve been working on the “wings.” The stag is finished and work on the owl continues. Once all three are done I’ll color and then move on to coding.

3/10 update

Been working on the perfect kingdom vector. Finished the castle part today. Have coloring to do in it but I’m waiting til the owl and stag are done to color.

Have to find better references for those though. The pbandai images with the wings out are generally angled so it’s harder to use...

3/6 Update

Been trying to knock out the progrise keys from the latest video. Dodo and Mammoth are both done. I'll have to update the older Zetsumerise Keys to have the DX sounds.

After that update is out I can start working on Perfect Kingdom.

March Flash Focus Run-off

We had two options tied for the top so here's the run-off. 

If you want me to only focus on Zero-One to try and knock out the onslaught of new power-ups and drivers vote for that. If you want me to work on Perfect Kingdom while tackling Zero-One vote for Build :).

Poll will end W...

March Flash Focus Poll

Work continues on the Assault Wolf Progrise Key. Sadly, two days ago when I had time to work on it the fire alarm went off at our apartment building and I couldn't work for a few hours. Most of it is complete. I really just need to get the mid-caps of the far left-side done and then color it.

Zero One update 2/12

Just used my lunch break to cut all of the legend rider key sounds.

Been working on the vector for assault wolf. The sad thing is even though they’re the same shape, shining hopper and assault wolf do not share details. Like the speaker at the bottom is handled differently, when the key i...

Zero One update 2/10

I’m working to add the progrise keys to the thousandriver.

So behind the scenes there are 4 versions of each key. One for each main driver/riser. With 3 devices to go, thousandriver, cycloneriser, and raidriser, I don’t want that number of versions to climb.

What I’m trying to d...

Zero One update 2/7

Working hard on adding amazing Caucasus. It’s added some challenges depending on the driver.

For example the dual ways to insert the key into the shot riser are both not usable since the key opens on press. I’ve worked through these challenges to finish out the key.

Currently it r...
