Website and Model Update!
Added 2023-08-18 22:09:45 +0000 UTCHELLO!
I've recently taken a little vacation, but at the same time not at all lol. I'm just taking a long time to create things, but I think I'm getting a lot better at it! Practice makes perfect! I've been working a lot on my model, since I got a little stuck on how I'd like it to look. It's still not all the way where I want to be, but I'm closing in on something. The pictures will speak for themselves, hehe, I've only done modelling though! I think once the textures come in it'll really come together, along with the blendshapes ofc!!
It's probably a good thing that I'm not finished with the model yet, since I'm still waiting for my slimevr trackers. They're on their way though, so I'm very excited to try them once they arrive!!! My new model will look SO COOL with full body tracking!!!!!! I can't wait!
Okok, onto the website.. I've been thinking about making one for a while, because I wanted to use it as a portfolio, but also a commission place! I found out you can do embed elements on a carrd.co website.. so I kinda just did that :D It was easier than making in from scratch, but I can still customize it if I want! Been having a lot of fun adding all information about my work and stuff, as well as secrets! Oh, and I also started using aseprite to create pixelart, wow I can really see the hype for this program, it's really easy to use!! I recommend it if you want to create pixelart!
I thought I could show you the site first, before I post it anywhere! It's not even finished, but it is published, and there's still cool things to see! If you have any requests for the website or anything you feel is missing, please let me know and I'll see if I can add it!
The website is icebell.carrd.co for now, but I might try to find a cool domain name for it! If you have any cool suggestions there too, I'd love to hear it!
Last, a little update on my life! I recently finished studying game graphics.. but now I'm starting up again in a new class for 3D graphics....... so I'll continue to be a little busy with school, but I'm still gonna try my best at updating you along the way!! Ideally I'd like to do a little commission work on the side to gain more experience in that field, and also expand on Cloud 9, I still wanna make a cafΓ©! I kind of want to make the cafΓ© my place of commissions... You can kind of tell on the website when you click the commission button lol. Serving ice cream and 3D!
Ok that's all for now, hope you have a very cool day!!!!!! AND HOPE YOU LIKE THE WEBSITE, you can see my game work there too!! :O More coming up too!!!!
COOL HUG from bell of the ice

You've got this Icebell! I'm sure it'll look cool with tracking π€ AHA my mom knows about you actually.. since I have you as my phone wallpaper and I've shown her (my sister too) your covers! they think you're cute <:3c OOH I'll keep my eyes peeled for the games! I'll be checking the ones you made too! desbear that's right.. I couldn't remember his name. That was for Halloween right? my memory is getting foggy as I age π΄ AH also I did try to make a website after responding here but then I realized I have no idea what my aesthetics are or what I want to use my website for haha.. I'll need to think long and hard about this. (I'll share it when I do make it!) Started compiling a list of my favorite things and inspirations. I checked out your playlist and I like it! going to listen more to it while I work or draw! Also before I forget... I thought the top of your website had all the links and for a while was lost trying to find your inspirations and stuff but then remembered the home page had those extra links... not sure if it was just me or if others could get lost like that too < _ > Yeah my dream occupation is being self-employed and if possible working with like minded people. I think you have the potential to make it though! ganbare!! You're a hard worker so I'm sure you'll get this cafe done πͺ belieb I'm just an awkward bird haha but I do like getting hugs from others π³ Your silliness cannot hide from these eyes eue

2023-08-21 05:35:49 +0000 UTCHAHA OH NO, well that is one of the parts I'm still working on, the face is such an important part to nail down, so I've been a little scared to work on it π³ HEHE WITH TRACKING YES.. and YEAH that's one of my goals too!!! AHH THANK YOU (happy b-day to jehemom!) It was really fun to put together the website!! I still wanna make one of those simple retro dress up games! I see you found the click and drag Icebell too!!! I'm thinking I can use this as the mechanic for the dress up games if I want to make it simple π Oh, the different icebears were originally created for a game that I didn't get the time to finish!! They all have different bear related names! YEAH the dark one is the desbear one hehe get it hehe. IF YOU MAKE A WEBSITE PLS TELL ME, I'll link it!!!! Ahh yeah since these carrd sites use embed elements in a different way than normal html sites, so I don't really know how to fix it, but I've been asking chatgpt for some coding help and that's been mostly helpful!! OH oh sry I'm gonna add an amogus friend somewhere, but I can't hide it there now because you'll know.. HELL YEAH MUSIC BOX, if you like that I recommend the playlist I put together in inspirations!!! VERY EXCITED ABOUT COMMISSIONS, and excited to make something for you!! Yeah I'm curious to see where I'll end up but I think my brain would be happier if I did something on my own, rather than work for somebody else! It's scary though π³ Haha the cafΓ© wouldn't be too complicated, I imagine in cloud 9 it would serve (hehe) as a showcase and a place of information about commission work! I also want to make a "create your own ice cream" booth there! So many cool ideas, I really want to make it happen πͺ HAHA NOO DON'T HOVER ARM ME, I can give you a cool pat on the head instead if that is better!!! And what do you mean silly :D haha no :D

2023-08-20 11:27:22 +0000 UTCI have to be honest.. at first I thought Icebell had a moustache for some reason but then I noticed she just has her mouth open HAHA I can't wait for when you finish though!! And with tracking?! Icebell concert? π³ I looked at your website when you posted this, but work and my moms birthday kept me too busy from getting a good look π I was really blown away! I feel I say this all the time but your creativity really is inspiring to me! SO COOL I keep saying and thinking heh (I like the different Icebears π, yes I clicked on the dark version too!) Aseprite is definitely a very cool program that people should use! I haven't used it in 5ever though... hmm hmm my oshi is making pixelart and made a website maybe I should too?! Oh yeah your website lets me scroll down for some reason but there's nothing at the bottom? or is there and I just haven't found it? π€ ALSO when I moved the animated Icebell there was no amogus hiding behind her π I gotta say I really like your music box though! going to take my time looking at everything again. BUT when you have commissions open I'll be one of your first customers!! ooh I'm excited to see how you'll continue growing on your path in 3D art! You've got this Icebell I believe in you! Having a cafe for your place for commissions sounds like a really fun idea too! I'm kind of curious to know how that'd work though haha Your cool hug has cooled me during these hot summer days! AWKARD HOVER ARMS with a small pat on the back hug back!! One more thing I want to say is that I do read the comments on the pictures... very silly sometimes
