4th gen trihex emotes commission!

So the biggest lesson I learned from what we did last time was -too much detail- and -too complex of an image- results in tough to make out at emote size. I have to be much more cautious about focus, focal points, and business from here on. So I tried my best to emphasize that with more specific descriptions! :D

▤▤▤ Miia 4-part emote (tri1, tri2, tri3, tri4)
The headliner and most complicated, and it's so vital it works well, so here we go.

Miia from Monster Musume, but as an epic 4-part emote at 112 x 28, or 2000 x 500 for PSD minimum. Miia is a snake monster girl, and I want to showcase her unique characteristics (lengthy body) via a lengthy emote.

This emote will be the ultimate "Hi" emote for everyone to use. Similar to HeyGuys (https://twitchemotes.com/emote/_HeyGuys_) but for my crowd.

It's really important that Miia is laying down sort of like my demo here, except on her side, not her belly like the 3D model - https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CT1bRGqU8AAoxIZ.png - Notice how the intention is so the middle body can be spammed and looped so to "extend" Miia's body.

In "Miia Breakdown" You can see top diagram shows how I want the 2nd emote, the snake body, to be able to loop forever. I have a square-ratio crop to show a good idea of how it could look, except ideally, have the left end bleed off to where tri1 would go - http://puu.sh/ltoN0/9665d71187.jpg

The bottom example with labels show a more detailed idea of what I want. Notice Reference B with Miia;s breast and bare torso, in the source pic - http://41.media.tumblr.com/04bf1e134d18ddf2d47d1770adb3f71b/tumblr_nr869lMcfr1uazl8ho1_1280.jpg - she's laying on her belly, which makes the transition to snake body tougher because I need that to bleed completely within tri3. So laying on side or back with belly button facing front directly if possible. I tried to show this by reversing the flipping the image in the labeled WIP.

Tri4 needs to show Miia's face, neck, doing the 2 finger peace gesture like in reference A, but totally within square ratio - http://pre06.deviantart.net/22aa/th/pre/i/2015/183/8/0/miia_by_shinoharaa-d8zp8vv.png - If done correctly, tri3 will be a headless and allow emote combos by posting PogChamp or TriHard instead of tri4. Her expression can be that of the reference, winking with mouth open exposing her snake fang.

To show an idea of how tri4 should look, I included Reference C - https://jnkworld.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/monster-musume-no-iru-nichijou-character-song-vol-1-miia-cv-sora-amamiya-2015-09-02.jpg?w=350&h=200&crop=1 - and then flipped it to where she's laying appropriately.

To review:

• tri1 = Tail end of Snake Body. Expose the underside like the WIP and curve the tail to maximize the square ratio.
• tri2 = Rest of Snake Body. Use http://puu.sh/ltoN0/9665d71187.jpg as refernce for where to expose the underside, gloss the top scaley part. It's EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that both ends of tri2 are loopable -into each other-, so that people can spam "tri2 tri2 tri2" over and over to make Miia's snake body longer!
• tri3 = torso, belly button, tits, Miia's left arm across under the tits (like this:http://images.wisegeek.com/woman-in-gray-shirt-lying-down-holding-her-stomach.jpg). I know in references and throughout the manga she wears a skirt, but we're gonna ditch the skirt to make sure tri2 is loopable. Here's pants-less Miia to show for reference -- http://puu.sh/ltpSo/1b68162962.jpg
• tri4 = face, neck, and left hand doing the 2 finger peace symbol/wave. Can be winking w/ face open exposing snake fang looking very happy. Note the face scales and ears. Arrange hair to be self-contained within tri1 only for exploit usage. Also take note to lower her finger peace wave to be at same level as her head to maximize square ratio. :)

If you find it too difficult to make this work in 4 emotes, I give you permission to spit tri3 into TWO emotes to get the torso/tits/arm, but I want to work really hard to see if we can get 4 emotes as max.

Layers requested:

• tri1 = tail (1)
• tri2 = snake body, as long as loopable (1)
• tri3 = left arm across/under tits up to shoulder (1), torso/belly button portion below button-up shirt (2), tits + button-up shirt (3),
• tri4 = eyes (1), mouth (2), eyebrows (3), snake ears (4), bangs (5), fallen hair in bg (6), right arm up to palm (7), right hand making 2 finger peace wave (8)

▤▤▤ Puke v2

Puke v1 didn't work because it's too complicated and busy to make out all the detail at 28x28. Instead let's go for a side-profile and give the barf a bigger screen  presence.

Source image - https://i.warosu.org/data/tg/img/0344/22/1409098922489.jpg - shows the side-profile I want Yugi barfing at. Reference A shows the crop square we can try to go for. Reference B shows a better focus of what I would display, but also the problem - she looks like she's eating radiation ramen, instead of puking. So here's what I propose~

Layers requested:

1) vomit A (vomit going into a bag held out like reference)
2) vomit B (vomit drawn to spread everywhere and is as loud as possible, to ensure it works at emote size; no bag or bag being held  to allow as much space for projectile vomit as possible)
3) Yugi's closed eyes
4) Discolor in Yugi's face (like you did on vomit v1)
5) Yugi's yellow bangs
6) Yugi's huge spikey hair
7) neck/left shoulder
8) hands/arm holding barf bag
9) barf bag

▤▤▤ Sugoi v2

The original Sugoi doesn't obey square ratio very well. Bangs extend horizontally, colors aren't vibrant different enough. When I asked original artist to make an emote based off source - http://puu.sh/ltrE0/3595b83167.jpg - she didn't quite give me what I wanted.

Reference A shows how I'd love the emote to look, Momoka gleefully happy, sparking eyes that are still visible at 28x28 plus additional "yellow glow marks" to show she is -lit up- with joy.

The 28x28 next to A shows the emote size, where the colors are all too similar and don't contrast enough.

I included Gasm because I'd like the vibrant color palette you used there to match here. (Right now Waifu and Sugoi can tell were done by a diff artist - https://twitchemotes.com/channel/trihex)

Do draw Momoka at the same 3/4's angel as the source did!

Layers requested:

1) eyes with sparkle (vibrant colors for the sparkle, eye color to contrast against skin color as much as possible)
2) mouth open
3) cheek marks w/ blush
4) bangs
5) Fakku "F" pin
6) left pigtail
7) right pigtail
8) eyebrows
9) "yellow sparkle marks" near eyes to show amazement

▤▤▤ Waifu v2

Same issues as Sugoi, please work your magic.

Redraw Waifu as I originally wanted from my first artist. Have Fujino's eyes looking seductively, mouth open, small, hair waving implying she's turned around.

reference A shows what I'm okay with cropping for square ratio. I'm okay with this one having non-full head visible. Draw it anyway, and I'll crop to make it the best emote afterward.

Ignore the color palette the source image uses and match your Gasm as much as possible. Your purple is more vibrant and I think that works way better for the emote. Whatever contrasts against the skin color as much as possible. :D

Layers requested:

1) mouth
2) eyes
3) eyebrows
4) bangs
5) rolled back hair near bow
6) hair falling below bow
7) ears
8) right sideburn/strand behind right check
9) top of shoulder/school uniform (only to show left shoulder, a little bit)

▤▤▤ GropeL and GropeR v2

The tentacles faield because I put -way- too much detail into them, but that's my fault. You followed the directions perfectly. But I do want to redraw them for a better emote learning from what didn't work.

I like the color palette used here actually. Underside red/cream contrasts well against the dark top scaley slimey portion of tentacle. You can still try to add a high contrasting light source from beneath each tentacle if you think it looks good!

I like the slime being that brown/tan color shown in GropeL. It seems much more lewd and visible than what we did in v1.

I'd like it if we can add texture and make the suction cups more vibrant and realistic. I didn't draw them well enough last time, so here's a reference of what I'd prefer you shoot for - http://pre10.deviantart.net/3126/th/pre/f/2015/293/3/d/geersart_shirt_campaign_by_darrengeers-d9drh2t.jpg

Notice the size of the suction cups grow smaller as they reach the tail. However, I prefer the "dick head" tip of the source image with the DuckTales duck. Just make the suctions teeny tiny at the head! :D Also making effort to make the tentacles thinner here too like the source image. They appear like gas pumps in the current version because they're so thick and I had to crop a ton to get them to work.

GropeL can have similar composition to the WIP of GropeL, just curve the tentacle to use up as much of the square ratio as possible. It will show most of the overside, so make it really slimey and shiney to show that tentacle texture! It looms from bottom center of the canvas.

GorpeR I'd prefer to come from bottom left of canvas, towering showcasing most of the underside like the WIP. Ideally, each tentacle will contrast each other (GropeL shows mostly overside, GropeR shows underside, both non-symmetrical). GropeR lacks slime, so feel free to add plenty~

Both need hearts too~ <3

Layers requested:

▤ GropeL
1) slime
2) underside
3) overside
4) gloss on tentacle overside
5) hearts

▤ GropeR
1) slime
2) underside
3) overside
4) gloss on tentacle overside
5) hearts

▤▤▤ Non-emote: "TEAM 2D" wordprint

I've been getting my chat hype for becoming part of Team 2D, love for cute fictional girls throughout western art and anime. I need something to accompany Lewd to say Team 2D within the length of triGasm, but can be multiple lines, like this:

1 -- [Fujino gasm emote]
2 -- TEAM
3 -- 2D!

And perhaps with a Doki Doki kanji heart in the background? Play off the colors present in triGasm to contrast. I actually like the palette used here - http://i.imgur.com/LMGqWhCl.jpg

And like the typeface used here - http://orig10.deviantart.net/e61b/f/2015/080/7/8/dokidoki_logo___better_version_by_princessneko93-d8ml9um.png

And would love to see Doki Doki Heart used as either behind the "TEAM 2D" text or in conjunctinon with it! :D - http://cdn.supadupa.me/shop/2250/images/327505/il_fullxfull.291445332_grande.jpg - https://img0.etsystatic.com/000/0/5723179/il_340x270.291448614.jpg

Total bullshit WIP to give an idea - http://puu.sh/ltvM6/a0745eb2e5.jpg ;

This should be an easy job, so if I offered $30 for this, would that be fair? (Compared to the emote price?) <3

▤▤ Reminder:
Always maximize square ratio, 500x500 minimum per emote for PSD, and avoid the extra outline layers, they universally aren't needed. I'm out to maximize each pixel I can because 28x28 is so brutal.

Much love as awlays, sorry this took long to write (and read) ;;
