EbSynth Lulusa Dancing Test
🕑 Added 2022-03-24 13:05:01 +0000 UTCThis was an experimental project suggested by Crisisbeat to me to create an animation with a visual style (similar to my comic) but using a 3D model (using Blender) as a base.
I'll try to be brief in the explanation of how this wonderful learning process went XD (and sorry if my english is poor and confusing sometimes Y_Y):
The exercise consisted on using a single frame of the basic video and color it in an optimal way in Photoshop, adding detail, in this case I painted this frame.
After this we made two renders of the animation in blender:
In the first render you can see the volume and basic model information, in the second render you can see Lulusa with a 2D texturing material.
We used EbSynth as a blending method (What this program basically does is to use the color information of the manually painted image and then reproduces this same information in the other images of the render).
This way the result of the first attempt is the third render, it's not perfect but the face, the belt, and most of the gloves were a success. Because of the complexity of the animation on her breasts (which is exaggerated on purpose >.>) the result wasn't so good as we expected, but after this we decided to take the animation of the second render (only the breast part) and replace it in the final video (using masks in After Effects), even so it has some minor issues but the result is more than acceptable :p
This is the program we used, btw...
Now, with the suit version our first attempt was not what we expected.
So we had to take the suit from the 3D model and add it in this new animation (only the breast part of course), otherwise it'd have taken us a lot more time, however I share with you the optimized image i used. (the weird forms in the background is not a render error, it's just a bug in the previewer program)
Thus, the best result was this
I hope you enjoyed this fun and interesting learning experience ^^.
As an extra reward for having read the entire post, I included a wallpaper of Lulusa made by Crisisbeat 😂

Animation sounds complicated. I'm happy to leave it up to you folk. She looks great, though!

Fascinating!
