Progress Report + Poll Result (Comic)

Alright, sorry I've been a bit slow about any progress reports this month. I've had a series of aggravating failures that have keep me busy. Which, sadly, also means I haven't made as much progress as I'd hoped to have. Anyway...

Poll Result:

Obviously, the short story poll isn't done yet. The comic poll has completed, however, and Stranded on Silas Station won with 100% of the...three votes. Ah well, there aren't a lot of people that can vote in that poll since it's a Royalty Tier poll. Regardless, I'll be starting work on that either tonight or tomorrow. Probably tomorrow, honestly.

Progress:

Left Hand Magic: Okay, I'm very very annoyed with how little I've gotten done so far here. I'd anticipated being completely done with the prologue completely by now. Instead, I've only gotten two of the four prologue scenes done. I lost literally an entire day trying to get a small little workshop set up for the blood mage character. And it wasn't setting it up that caused the issue...it was the bloody lighting. And I'm still not happy with the lighting after like 20 re-renders. Ugh. I have no idea why that bloody fucking door is glowing like a bloody lightbulb with no direct lighting on it. What the actual heck.

Of course, part of the problem is that I'm holding myself to a MUCH higher standard than usual with each render for this game. Little errors I'd have accepted for expediency with Haven's Port are causing complete re-renders with Left Hand Magic. Even so, I should have been farther along, and I'm trying really had not to freak out about how slowly it's going. Hopefully I'll be able to quickly get through the final prologue sections and start on the first series of proper content. I'd hoped to complete the entire first event, with all of the possible scenes between as well. But I'm losing hope that I'll have the time to get it all in :-(. I promise I'm doing what I can with it.

On another note, while I haven't done any post processing work on these images yet...how do you like the MC's 'work clothes?' Do they look properly like a MagicPunk sort of Battle Mage? Note, the lighting on that particular image is a little off, I'm intending to fix that in post process :-).

Wallpapers: I've got the renders done for the main set...and I'm rendering the second of a special Holiday set right now ;-). I think the Holiday ones (which every patron will get) are turning out pretty well...

Short Story & Comic: Obviously, haven't had a chance to start these yet, given that the polls weren't finished...
