Team羞恥! ┗(｀ﾟДﾟ´)┛ ( ○ ω ○ ))
I want to apologize for spamming your FList with Twits instead of real posts... this semester was so time-consuming that Twit was so much more convenient. You can find some of the projects on my blogspot. But this I have to plug here... Originally, the project merely brought back some nostalgia of the Ultraman series, but after doing way more research than necessary, we got so into poking fun at the characters out of love, these two have been our muse for the whole semester. Would never have expected to have so much fun with this project.
Brief introduction (just in case):
Ultraman Taro （タロウ）: ┗(｀ﾟДﾟ´)┛ youngest of the original Six Ultra brothers as well as the only true son of Mother and Father of Ultra (does that make him prince of M78? 8D). Depended a lot on his brothers and parents before maturing in his series. Currently the lead instructor of the Space Garrison, Ultraman Mebius' over-protective 教官 (kyoukan).
Ultraman Zoffy（ゾフィー兄さん）: ( ○ ω ○ )) the oldest of the original Six Ultra brothers and also the commander (taichou) of the Space Garrison. He cares for his brothers very much. There's been several scenes where he traveled all the way to Earth just to rescue if one of them is in danger. And because of Taro, he...uh... kinda became hetare nii-san 8D;;;;;

(It was rank 92/1000 on the first day!! The responses are SO hilarious 8DDD )
It's done! It's really done!!! !(●´Д｀●)♥
The Ultraman model I mentioned 3 months ago? Not only is it done, but animated as well!! My classmate 某S and I have started working on this since Thanksgiving along with finals. Since we did not have time to animate our models as a class, Gustlin made "dancing Ultraman" one of the extra credit options for final. Dude, we so couldn't pass up the opportunity. It didn't even matter whether it was extra credit or not, for we just wanted to animate our Ultramans!
We've reached our physical limit because of the project, but after seeing Gustlin's and the class' as well as the audience's great laughters during the A/I screening in the Washington Square Hall as the last surprise item to show (the giant screen!!!), the whole week of full-pilot animating non-stop was SO worth it!! 100% satisfactory (●´Д｀●)!! I mean... from laptop screen >>> class projector screen >>> AUDITORIUM SIZE (+ STEREO)!!!
The whole process was so surreal... I know if it's actually scrutinized for its animation, it isn't very good, but don't care! I mean, a total of 2688 frames animated, done with no instructions and zero experience on 3D animating. Plus, we started from scratch: searching for references, drawing blueprint, modeling, UV mapping, rigging, painting weight, and finally, animating... It was a miracle we finished it.
We just want to keep screaming, as words can't come close to describing our hype. I think this type of passion will be hard to come by a second time. But because of 129A, this semester was truly lots of fun.
First omake drawn by me. (Drooling corgi = me. Blue cat = 某S.)
タロウ: We did it!! ┗( ≧∇≦ )┛
某Asa+某S: Oh Yeahhhhhh-------!!!!
ゾフィー: ......(= _ = ))
(某S請原諒我都用那幾句X3;）
Following two is drawn by 某S!!!! I envy her ability to draw gag. xD;
某S: (lll ＠ロ＠)!!! 痛痛痛痛痛痛痛
ゾフィー: (# =皿 =)) 死某S!! Why did you spend so much time modeling my ass instead of buffing me up? Everyone is saying me, the NII-SAN!!, is tiny now compare to Taro, the OTOTO!!. I do not need to be more hetare! Cat ears are so cute. Taro! Let me play with that thing in your hands too!＼(＾∀＾))／
タロウ: S-sure... Σ┗(｀ﾟДﾟ´)┛!!
某Asa: Σ(○ω○；；)
ゾフィー: (# =皿 =)) And you! Why did you not stop that idiot over there and also model Taro so manly? So pinchable! ＼(＾∀＾))／
某Asa: I didn't even do anything! Just gave Taro awesome chest! Awesome chest and awesome ass is good contrast! ( )´д`( );;;;
タロウ: (phew..).┗(；￣д￣)┛ =3
NOTE: The Zoffy doll is called "mini nii-san" because mini nii-san is still mini! But nii-san will also be oni nii-san as well!

About the height difference!
The official heights: Taro = 53m and Zoffy = 45m. Zoffy's the one with his arm on Taro!
Proof that we did not make Zoffy short accidentally!!
It's not until later on they evened back the heights out 8D;; Zoffy = one on left.
Some in-progress shots of many. Preview:
*INSERTS CHEEZY MUSIC*
Z: Suit yourself.
T: .....Good bye, nii-san.
Z+T: We made up!!
Forgot to render with light, and... this Ipod nii-san happened. *LAUGHS*
"Hey you over there!!" Or... "OBJECTION!!"
And this is an extra animation we made for our instructor Gustlin. Three things he either loves or loves to say. Sorry, lots of inside jokes!
The reactions were... epic. 8DDDD He even said he's gonna show this to every one of his class from now on!!

One final thing, once again courtesy of 某S~~~~~
So sorry for the giant post... but... waah... just reflecting back on the whole process, it really feels amazing. So hard to rant the feeling to people. Honestly, I'm sad that it's really over, but I don't regret one bit of the effort, may it be editing the geometry even in rigging stage, or pulling a full 60-hours non-stop to finish, to put into making this whole project work.
Thank you 某S for putting up with me!! ♥ ；ω；)9 我們200%成功了！！！（涙）
