Hey guys, I'm new! One of my Brony friends told me all about Tulpae and directed me to this thread. Needless to say, I was apprehensive at first, but after reading through the first few pages I felt rather inspired! Since then I've read through much more of the thread, clicked on several links, and done my own research into Tulpae. I've read some negative stuff about it, and a lot of positive stuff contradicting the negative stuff. But seeing as all of you seem to be having a wonderful time, I'm going to guess it's safe (As long as there are no long term problems) Anyways I'm going to talk about my 'game plan', so that if I am doing anything wrong, hopefully one of you will correct me before I make things difficult for myself. I wan't to know if I'm going about this the wrong way o__o *ahem* I'm thinking of basing my Tulpa on S1 Luna (In visualization and name only. She will have unique personality and freedom to be who she wants to be) I have about 24 traits which I have thought of already, including that she is curious, imaginative, thoughtful, caring, affectionate, playful, talkative, and more. I know she may easily develop in a bit of a different direction, but that is the base I am going for. I've read in multiple places that starting out with something abstract like an orb during the beginning phases is often best, but I realize that the entire process may vary from person to person. I get the impression that it's not always best to visualize the Tulpa before the personality is complete, but since I have Aspergus Syndrome I find it difficult to focus on anything abstract. In contrast, I excel with more literal interpretations of thought. Because of this, I plan to imagine Luna 'being there' in my room while I work on her personality. Could that have a negative impact on my progress in this case? I sure hope not o__o I'm pretty sure that once her personality is complete, the next step should be easy for me. I consider myself to have a fairly powerful imagination as it is. Take this tree for example. I only need to take one look at this image, and in my mind I can reconstruct and visualize the entire tree in 3D space, complete with moss, leaves, light/shadows, and in indentations on the bark. I can zoom in on it, rotate to any angle, change it's texture, bring it to life like the Whomping Willow, and just about anything else I care to think of. I can't physically see it like a Tulpa, but in my mind I can visualize it reasonably clearly. Basic visualization aside, I think I have a good shot at 'bringing her to life' too. I've been animating for nearly seven years, and have spent over half that time active on DarkDemon.org. This site has the highest ranking standards out of all the known stick animation forums. To be a top ranking animator there, you must have an impeccable grasp of motion and how things move in relation to one other. It takes a hell of a lot of experience coupled with an intuitive understanding of movement, all of which is ultimately ingrained into the subconscious. I'm ranked in the Top 10 out of more than 20,000 animators there, so I predict my Luna will move in a VERY realistic fashion once she has been imposed. I will visualize Luna as she appears here, only with more life-like textures and lighting/shading. I won't make her too realistic, just in case I end up in a crisis where I don't know if I can distinguish between her and the real world. My one worry is that I might, might become unsure on whether or not I am unknowingly hallucinating 'real' things. I don't want to be worrying whether or not I have gone crazy without realizing it o__o Yeah... I plan on spending a minimum of 30 minutes to an hour each day for as long as it takes to get her personality beaten out, and then do the same for her physical appearance, and the rest of the details. I don't know what I'm going to do after that point yet, I guess I'll know by the time I get there. It could take many months, or a few weeks, we'll have to see I guess. I wont start for another week or so (I have animations due) but I definitely will give this a shot.

Welcome to my animation thread! This is where I will be posting my animations while I am on these forums. All of my current pony animations can be found here, and the thread will be updated with new ones as they are released I hope me running a thread like this will be acceptable! The Nightmare An idea I had since The Crystal Empire, but waited until Sleepless In Ponyville before I made it. My computer was broken at the time, so I was forced to borrow a laptop when I could and animate from my USB device. Somehow I managed to complete the animation in no more than four days o__o Music by Makkon <3 Ponies with Hats [On Hold] My third pony animation. This was meant to be released long ago, but I was unable to since my voice actor was too busy to do the lines. The animation has been on hold around 95% complete since the start of November. However, a new voice actor was found the other day, so things are on the move. Jaunt of The Lunar Mare This was created immediately after my Derpy Hooves test. I decided to create Princess Luna, complete with a flowing mane and walk cycle. Then I got the idea to add backgrounds, and this came out of it. It was a tough learning experience and a lot of work, but I prevailed Woohoo! Derpy Hooves - Animation Test My first attempt at pony animation. I made it over two afternoons at school. Prior to this, my experience with Flash amounted to a couple of scribbles with a stick-figure running across the screen. I guess I'm a fast learner? (: If you like my animations, feel free to subscribe or something. Whatever you feel like

Mere words cannot describe how mind blowing this is. It's simply amazing, I'm serious. I am totally for serial, ya know? I seriously must show this to all of my friends o________o I will watch it while I am awake, and while I am asleep. I will watch it while I eat my cereal, for serious cereal is most serial for serious matters such as this.
