Creator's note: This video was filmed over several hundred hours in at least 4 different rooms at 3 locations over the course of the last 8 or so months as I've been moving around with Uni and life etc. Apologies for the wait. Hopefully you enjoy it.Squeeb - THACXIII EntryForlornCreature2016-01-16 | Made in 24 hours for THACXIII on BricksinMotion.com The promp was "A Peculiar Event".

P.S. Sorry for the long wait! Between digging my teeth into University, helping out in the 501st Legion, managing computer breakdowns, and life in general, it's been difficult to regularly work on Creepers. This episode is so much work. Thank you to those kind ones for the support though, you know who you are! I swear to Yoda there will be more videos soon.Creepers Pt3 VFX Breakdown ft.

Creator's note (at time of upload): The continuing saga of Niko the creeper! This episode took some serious work. It's my longest video to date, made in only 26 days (to give you an idea of how crazy that is, the first 5-minute episode took 3 months to do). That's over 6000 photos for a 7 minute long video, around 200+ hours of work. Fun fact: I haven't slept much this week, I've had at least 3 all-nighters. I'm flying out to travel in Europe for three weeks right as this video is being uploaded, so BTS will be delayed. Part 4 will also take a bit longer than other episodes.Dragonframe Walkthrough/TutorialForlornCreature2015-03-28 | twitter.com/forlorncreature Made originally for Chris from MinilifeTV, thought I might share it with the rest of you.

This video of my experience last year has been unlisted for a long time, but I thought it would be appropriate to make it public now. Besides, I'm much less self conscious now ;)

Fun fact: This was the longest I've ever spent animating in a single go, which is 7 hours. Plus that was during an all-nighter. But it was finished well ahead of schedule, with plenty of time to spare :) Most of the sound was created on the day as well. It's also my first THAC, and I should probably feel proud of myself or something, but really I just feel tired as hell.
The theme was 'a grand unveiling', and the mod elements that had to be included in every shot was a white brick connected to a grey brick. Or the letter M, but I reckon that's cheating.Sex Rocket Teaser 2ForlornCreature2012-10-14 | Watch the full video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWxdBjC-W88

By watching this video the revenue I'm recieving from the ads goes towards a new and very powerful desktop computer. My current laptop can barely cope with this sort of stuff, which is why it's not the best quality animation I can produce. Thanks for your support!
