Bedtime(?)
This is pinkie's way of very subtly inviting you to join her. I know, her cues can be very hard to pick up on.Man, there's something about big baggy clothes combined with nudity that just... *shakes fist* yes. As always, downloads in 1080p, and 4K
Piles of pony
Ding! Your scheduled shipment of pony has arrived! get stuck in ;)I love doing these! It's fun just to come up with poses and interesting lighting. And the models are much more expressive than they used to be, which is nice. They'll be going up in 4K, and some in 8K! (both in the UHD archive)
Poll #14: The New Girls Pt.1
howdy! Hope the holidays have been treating y'all well! I think we should take some of these new models for a spin, eh?Six options this time! I'm just full of ideas... As usual pick as many as you like! This one will be open for longer than the last few. I'll pick the three ones to do based on the votes, but also trying to get an even spread across the three girls. Unless both of one pony's poses are clear winners. Confusing? sorry. it makes sense in my head.And just a note, yes I know their horns are all missing! There's st...
hard and soft
Applejack said she needed your help to get something out of the attic, but really, it just seems like she wanted some privacy... Looks like it's going to be a fun day!This one has been a bit of a mess to render! Most of that has to do with the crazy timetable of december and more upgrades to my rendering pipeline, so there have been some bugs to work out. I'm going to do an updated version in the new year with a lot of stuff fixed. For now, I love how it turned out!Available in the download archives in 1080p, and 4K
WIP #14: New faces!
Hey there everybody! Time for another wip update, this week I've ended up with some time to work on my versions of some more ponies! First, Starlight, Sunset and Trixie.Got some really fun shapes going in here, I'm especially happy with glim glam's tail and trixie's whole body shape. I should do more big thighs...And the collection of princesses is finally complete! Or, until I add princess twilight, and maybe chrysalis. Does she count? I think a queen is close enough, and she would be in that 7-10 foot size class. Either way, c...
Poll #13: Grab some apples
This one's a simple one: where are we grabbing the apple horse?
WIP #13 update: Flutterbat x Angel full version
Bunny time! I've been making slow and steady progress on the rest of the scenes for the halloween animation. I'm taking my time with these, and I hope the payoff will be worth it! We're going to have about twice as much content in the middle, and then a big ol' facial at the end, which is shaping up to look very nice indeed.What things are being added, specifically? First off, we're going to see those clothes actually come off her, instead of just cutting from clothed to (semi)nude. I'll detail the process of making that...
Dance!
Dances are just such fun. And so tantalising :P Sorry these ones took a while, I really got my ass kicked in a lot of ways to make these. There are likely to be updated versions soon to fix a few things. Had a blast, though! Hope y'all like them!Available in the download archives in 1080p, and 4K
WIP #12 Writeup: Microrigging
Hey all! Time for another workflow writeup - this time I'm going over an extremely important but often overlooked tool in the belt of an animator: microrigging. This is the process of creating new, smaller rigs on the fly specifically for one shot you're working on to acheive a specific movement more easily. This isn't a technique that has a particular name in most studios, it's just something you're expected to be able to do if needed.Microrigging can be very simple, maybe you need a character's mid-shin to rest on some...
Poll #12: Casual Friday
Hey All! Here's the final poll for No Nudity November! Thought we might enjoy seeing the girls in some more... normal situations. Except pinkie. This is her normal. Plus, luna! Hopefully I'll be able to do more with the princesses soon ;)As always, feel free to vote for as many as you like, I'll do the top two!
And a little something extra ;)
The problem with fondling fluttershy is you have to have big hands or her chest kind of escapes from you... Still, doesn't hurt to try! And what are big mac and twilight up to? Well. It looks like they're having fun! Perhaps twilight was inspired after trying out those massive dildo spells and wanted to try the real thing?Got a couple of little surprises for you with this one! I've re-rendered a new version of the twilight magic dildo animation, fixing some animation errors, adding an actual transformation effect to the magic, and b...
WIP Update #11: Seams and Stitches
Clothes! Really, the main motivation behind no nudity november is I've been playing around with better ways of making them, and I kind of want to play catch-up on the number of useable garments I have.For the uninitiated, clothing is extremely hard to do properly in 3D for a few reasons. First, clothes are just naturally hard to model, you have to add lots of fiddly and time consuming details to sell the effect, but also the kind of details are particularly hard. Long, thin things like seams and hems just don't gel with the tools availa...
Poll #11: Move your body!
Dances! I really don't know why I haven't done anything rhythmic earlier. Too busy with equally fun other stuff. This time, we're choosing between with the whole mane six!I've roughly sketched in the outfits I have planned, let me know if that helps you guys choose! Be sure to vote for as many as you like, this time I'm doing the top 3!
Getting freaky
You know there are size queens, and then there's fluttershy. She might not admit it but she's very proud of just how much she can fit in her tall, slender frame. Some members might make another girl think twice, gasp and say "there's no way you're getting that thing in me!", but fluttershy just bashfully looks up at the towering, throbbing thing, bites her lip and says in the smallest voice "I can make it fit... please, let me show you"Rarity? She's hard to pin down - that is, unless she wants to be pinned do...
Posts from the wild
Sorry it's taken me a bit, but I've compiled a bunch of downloads for y'all from the halloween animation now - those are all available in the download archives now! I separated out a bunch of gifs for the SD archive, and made edits of all the 4K footatage for the UHD archive. Enjoy!Also I did that pinkie idea from the last poll 😔 I had a fun idea of how to make it work and I couldn't resist. The fluttershy animation is coming very soon, don't worry! And the winners of Poll #9 are rendered and will be going up tomorrow.
Poll #10: No Nudity!
Clothes! I love 'em. I haven't done enough, and that's why I want to try something I'm calling no nudity november. I'll be making more short animations than normal, and all of them will feature girls that are at least partially clothed. Let's do some more stuff with disembodied hands! Here are the ideas:Yeah I know, still naked. For the poll I'm afraid you're just going to have to imagine the outfits as making them is going to be a big part of the work. Here are the outfits for each idea:- Rainbowdash: Half-remov...
WIP Update #10: The Angelshy Albatross
Guess what! I've once again done something stupid. Some of you may remember this animation I posted last year, long before I dreamed of having a Patreon or doing this long-term (Thank you again!). I was pretty dissatisfied with it, it was almost impossible to render, had no sound, not my best animation work and questionably edited.It's a fun, kinda goofy idea that I find really compelling, and I wanted to give it a proper go - so I've been remaking it! This time with Flutterbat played by the always wonderful Wubcake, and much better...
Going solo
What do the girls do when they're on their own? Why don't you find out, they don't mind you watching ;)I need to do more solo content. These were really hot to work on, I hope y'all like them! you can grab the full versions in the download archive, and RD's scene is also in UHD!
Poll #9
Here's the next poll! Coming up with ideas for what the girls are into is always one of my favorite things to do. Putting them all in one image also makes me look forward to doing some group scenes at some point ;) As always, feel free to vote for as many as you like! I'll do the top two. The solo scenes for the last poll are rendering, so they'll be coming soon!
Sugarcube corner's secret menu
Well, if she advertises like that it's not very "secret", is it? Oh well. What are you ordering?Sorry this one's a bit late, I had something come up and some weird render issues with it, but we got there! I'm afraid it's only available in 1080p this time.
Shower time!
Rarity sure is committed to keeping AJ nice and clean, huh? Do you think AJ plays up her willingness to get muddy just so she does this more? surely not!As usual this one can be found in the archive and in UHD. Had a bit of a scheduling/rendering hiccup with the pinkie pie animation, that's going to be delayed. Sorry about that! It is coming.
WIP Update #9
This time it's been some really involved shader work. If you're wondering where the "up against it" poll winners are, don't worry, they're nearly done rendering! Turns out having this complex a glass shader in front of everything and so many layers of effects on the girls bodies really kind of explodes the render time, even in E-Cycles. I think it'll be worth it ;)I've been wanting to tackle a shower scene for a while because it's a perfect use for dynamic paint, and fun interacting elements in a material. Dy...
Poll # 8: Getting off
Time for some real solo content! We don't see enough of the girls in their private time, I think ;) Here are the options:It's worth noting also that these will be done with the new models, so please ignore the faces for now. The vulva rig on the old models is absolutely not up to the task for what I have planned :POnce again, vote for as many as you like and I'll do the top two!
WIP Update #8: Soft body animation
Hey all, this is the first in what will likely be a series of tutorial/write up posts about my process for doing techanim and dynamics. Today I'll be covering one approach I use for soft body interactions: layered deformations! I think it's a good place to start, as it covers a lot of the technical knowledge that some folks might be confused about. The other place one could start is with animation principles, which are equally important, so I plan to do another tutorial on those. When you're doing a technical task it's important...
Bonus poll! Fluttershy Milk Stuff
Here's a fun one! I've been working some pieces for an upcoming milk (and other white fluid) themed art pack, and I figured ya'll might enjoy a poll about it! It's all about fluttershy for this one.Bear with me on some of the deformations here, the final animations will be done with the new models but they're not quite ready yet for fluttershy and pinkie.
WIP Update #7: Milk work!
Hey everyone! This one's a bit of a preview, still a WIP update since these are still very much works in progress, but I've been working on some submissions for an upcoming art pack! The theme is milk, so lots of lactation stuff but also other white fluids are included, so the milking table fits too.There's also a fun bit of shader work in here, I made a little system for looping little rivulets of milk along the surface of the skin using a single image and some waves in a custom UV space. It's a similar method to how one group ...
Poll #7: up against it
This one is a bit of a weird one. I really wanna do an animation or two with the girls pressing themselves up against glass, I think it'd be cute, and a fun challenge. It's kind of hard to do previews for a poll where the intended pose and stuff is clear, though. I'll walk you guys through each idea a bit.The first one is the simplest, rarity in the shower, putting on a show. Where her body passes through the glass here it would be squished up against it instead. Same goes for the rest of these.And what if pinkie was teasing you to ...
Dash's advanced exercises
Trust me, this makes reps much more fun, and it engages the pelvic floor as well as the core. Good form means lots of lube, good pace and nipples have to reach above the bar. She's a pro!This one was just a blast all around. It's been a while since I've done animation really focused on weight and raw body mechanics. They don't call em body weight exercises for nothing!
Quick September Update
Hey everyone,The response to study break has been amazing! Thanks again to everyone who's new here, and I hope everyone enjoys the content I've got planned for september. A couple of bits of news:First, from today I'm switching the page to pay up front, I think now the download archive is large enough to justify that now. Won't affect any of you guys, I waited until september 1st so as to avoid any potential issues with double charging, but it's good to keep you informed.Secondly, I'll be taking a bit of a holiday for th...
STUDY BREAK
Here it is! It's been a long time comin', I've spent the last week trying to finish this thing, and hoo boy. Turns out this little flashlight animation is four minutes long. I really hope people like it! Something about cute domestic horny moments with couples really gets me.A few stats! This is about four months of work on 3,195 frames of animation and pretty much constant rendering, I ended up rendering almost 7000 frames in the end! Wubcake did an amazing job with the script, recording about 10 minutes of alternate takes.As you c...
