It’s been a year since I did my last 3D artwork.
The war in my country, a lots of sadness, blackouts, a lot of unpleasant things got me depressed
I watched very few movies and series, I fell out of everyday life in 2022 year and didn’t want to get creative.
Almost a year into the war, it’s become routine for me, rocket arrivals, noise of sirens has become commonplace.
As early as 2023, I began to think that I want to go back to make art. I wanted to do something new and, most importantly, cute, so here’s Watermelons!
I really like to animate “wiggle effect”, it creates a sense of liveliness.
I’m often asked how I do this “wiggle” animation. So, I use the SimpleDeform modifier, and deform each object frame by frame.
Here is the “Behind the Scenes” article for this cute artwork!
Do check out this article, written by the artist himself. It describes the process of making the artwork step by step and provides insight to toon-shading in Blender.
