Cruiser

Okay, so no song today, but I have started working on a space cruiser!

Inspiration is just, looking at random cruisers on Google and my mind! I hope this will look cool, I have some plans for some lighting effects hehe

Song will hopefully continue either tomorrow or next week! I hope you guys had a nice Halloween weekend and all! I had some good time at least :D


Thanks for all your support Lemondrops! See you next time :3

Studio Report! ...

... From my friend's bedroom :P

No pictures though! And no 3D today :( But I'm gonna try to get up early tomorrow so I can work on some stuff, I'm trying to figure out how to use particles for smoke effects and whatnot, nothing too fancy, just really really cool :D

Anyways, my friend and I recorded another song, a cover. This time, the instrumentals was all digitalized, just to save time and focus on vocals. Even though the instrumentals went through a bit of a mixing, we saved quite some time to record some vocals, and I do dare to say, that I've improved and that it sounds.. Good!
   We will try to finish it up tomorrow, try to mix the instrumentals a bit more, add some harmonies to the vocals and finish the grand choruses hehe. Hope I get it up for you tomorrow!

Until then, much love Lemondrops! And enjoy this picture :)

A little something

Here's something I worked on today!


The trail was a bit fail, and I had a hard time doing the lighting, but that is what I'm practicing on now! (Btw, how do you like my spaceship here? ^^ A thousand cookies to anyone who knows my inspiration for it :D)

It's nice to model a little again after the little break, doing stuff that's too hard tend to break you down haha

I should start to practice making low-polygon models though! And texturing, the god awful texturing Dx

Thank you my little lemondrops, always for you support! Love you!

Tutorial Studios

So so, sorry for being absent, gonna keep to this blogging again now!

As of now, I consider the Castle to be done, until I get the proper skills to finish it that is! Haha.

Enterprise, was as I thought, way over my head, so I've put it on hold.

What I've decided to do, is to try a couple of few more tutorials, to guide me to become better, any tips about any would be appreciated!

Got some music news as well! This Monday, hopefully, I will get to use my friend's studio he has in his school, a proper studio! That's so exciting haha xD

Expect more from me soon, be it models or songs, don't have any material just now, but here, have some lyrics I've written:

I'm not gonna lie
I'm not happy
I don't know what to do
I don't know what went wrong

I may lay down in defeat
I may not smell the flowers
I didn't see this coming
But I'll tell you this

Of all the feelings I possess
Regret didn't quite make it
A pain-release, a burden lifted
On the horizon I see
The only thing that stays true to me

In the midst of tomorrow
The future still lies unwritten
Laying down a draining sorrow
To write a history of my own

I'm not gonna lie
I'm not happy

I'm not gonna lie
I still believe


I don't have a melody for it yet... Maybe some rap-ish? I don't know, what melody do you get in your head? If you can describe it haha xD

Recordings

Haha, so many have asked about my music x) Some have even asked me to post it here!

Maybe I will, since it's a sort of "creation" of mine :)

Although it's mainly something for me to do at the moment, and also practice mixing and stuff like that, it's not something that sounds over the top. The drums are (at the moment) all computer generated and we record in my friends bedroom haha.

He's pretty good with gizmos and technical stuff, better than me anyway, he's taken apart his guitar-amp and plugged it into the computer, and with the computer we can generate different effects, like distortion, wah-wah, delay, reverb, pretty much anything, you name it! Same with bass-guitar!

Only downside to this method as that the palm-muting sounds sort of retarded, which you can hear in the track right here:


F.You | Upload Music

No vocals on it yet, and there are mainly two reasons:

1) I have no lyrics, at least not the complete song, I've gotten like, half a verse and a half chorus.

2) Vocals are hard to record!

They're hard to record mainly because of one thing. I'm not the best of singers haha x)
No, but seriously, we use a microphone that is intended for live use, and not recording, thus the sound is not the way we want it. I also lost my "pop-filter" which cancels the sound you get if you breath in to the mic.

But as soon as I figure out how to sing in the proper key in the song we're recording now (It's only on one part of the chorus, I just can't seem to get it right! The verse and the first part of the chorus are perfect, it's just this one part... Makes me frustrated!)

Anyways, if you listen to the song, I'm glad to hear some feedback! (Also, it's just a working title, tell me what you feel when you hear the song, if like... It's supposed to have a type of lyric to it, maybe it'll be easier for me to write the lyrics :D)

Anyways, thanks for all your support lemondrops! And sorry for such a long post x)

I'll keep you posted!
