Update 11/28 - WE EXIT FULLBODY PURGATORY

AY

Alfabusa here to report that BIG sorry that this update is so late.

I, the only person who has full access to this Patreon, has had a fun party week with full-family influenza. The worst fever I've had in memory, and with small child suffering the same. Great!!!

We're still not over it, we've entered the drowning-in-our-own-slime stage.

But I felt it was just very much due time to get something out, even if its a bit simple...

                                『HUNTER: THE PARENTING』

Okay so we've had standard progression in regards to pretty much everything here of late. Animation is trundling along, music is completed, the Chapter 5 script is being conjured, and art...

Art?

Oh, there is where the biggest step has finally been made.

And I thought I'd take this post to highlight that fact by showing you what Old Gods we have let carved into flesh.

☉ FINALLY, WE EXIT "FULLBODY PURGATORY"

What does "Fullbody" mean in this context?

It's a word we've used internally for a long time, since probably like 2014, to describe the fully designed top-to-toe models of our characters. Their limbs, that is to say arms, head, legs, torso, etc, are all seperate into individual layers for animation purposes. We used these in TTS throughout, and we used them for a lot of scenes in HTP and HLZV.

For the longest time now, a big chunk of our art crew has been focusing on finishing Fullbodies for all 17 characters in this episode, including updated ones for our main characters.

This has been a highly arduous task, more so than we had hoped, and has been the realest bottleneck in this entire process. But now that its done, we do not have to do it again for these characters! It's done forever!!!

I wanted to spend the rest of this post showing them in the worst way I could because i thoughjt thatd be funny here you go

BEHOLD YE OBSERVERS, BBBIG-DDDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

THESE CRAVEN CREATURES LIVE IN YOUR EYEBALLS NOW.
THEY DO NOT COME OUT.

Okay so, suffice to say, the characters won't quite look like this in the actual episode sadly.
But here we have frontal, 3/4th, side and backviews of 17 characters with different gestures and facial expressions. This is the biggest "Fullbody project" we've ever committed to ever and NOW it is finally done.

Okay that's it.

This will have to conclude the Update for now.

Now that these are done, art team can finally focus its all on picking up the pace with the Panels.
Genuinely a big relief.

Alright, I'm gonna go and cough violently now. I feel a noxious gas inside of my lungs that smells and tastes like actual death, like ammonia or something, I hate it.

Until next time, have a good one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
