Hi guys, I hope you have all been well.

Things have been going well here, I've got my first animation finished and started rendering. I'm still planning to do a couple more animations for this ending.

I bought a new monitor a while back. 32" 1440p IPS and it's been great. A big upgrade from the 22" 1080p monitor I started with. The extra screen space plus the fact I can still use the old monitor in a dual set up makes work so much easier.

The only problem was that the colors on each display didn't match. It bugged me for a good while. Which monitor is correct? Are they both wrong?

I decided to buy a monitor calibration tool (datacolor spyderx pro if you're interested). It seems to have worked pretty well. Both monitors now look pretty much the same. Not quite perfect but good enough, the older monitor is TN based so has problems with viewing angles and such.

Turns out though that neither monitor was "correct", the 6500k white point is actually warmer than what either monitor was set to. I still believe there is room for improvement too by tweaking the monitors built in settings before the calibration tool does is thing also but that's something to try when I have the time.

So anyway, hopefully now what I see should be color accurate. Problem is, if no one else is using an accurate display to view my work, it's never going to look the same. I can't really help that though. It might have just been a waste but I think it's got the be better for my output to be correct from the start.

Anyway, 4k renders! I did some more simple poses in underwear in portrait again. This time it's Rosa in some leather underwear. Who knows where she goes and what she gets up to in her free time?
