[MMD] Tales of the Abyss- The Ever

www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehNF1M…

Well well, I'm back with a new MMD video after a long time! And this one, I really went all out with effects!

Found this gorgeous motion, and had to put it to use! What I'd really wanted was to find a motion for Luke and my new Tear model (once again, thank you so much to the person who helped me get her! You know who you are! ) to dance to together, but I'm so glad I found this! I definitely want to use more beautiful motions like this in the future.

Along with Tear, this is the first time I've used the models for Natalia and Anise! They finally see the light of day.... Of course, everyone wanted to be at the very center with Luke, so I had to take them and individually "apply center point bias", meaning I had to input coordinates and make sure they stayed where they were throughout the entire video (in a similar fashion to my Madoka video, with Mami's model).

When Luke reaches his hand out, I REALLY wanted to have either Tear or Asch's hand reach out from the other side of the screen. Unfortunately, I still haven't been able to download him, so I'll have to be patient I tried using a model of Luke (at the end of the game) along with a ghost effect applied, but it didn't work out, so I ended up scrapping that idea.

I had also wanted a glass shatter effect to happen when short-haired Luke shows up, but since that also didn't work out, I just used a quick earthquake effect to try to emulate the feeling.

Also, Mr. Green Bar on the side of the screen is back, and I can't find a way to get rid of it at the moment. Maybe I'll update later, but for now, do your best to ignore it.

This was very tough to make, but I truly had a blast, and I learned so much! Any MMD artists out there should definitely give this one a try!
