Pic 193: Pre-Dinner Pictures

I've be working on Date Ariane 2 pre-dinner pictures this month, trying to render all the pictures representing activities you can do before dinner.

My goal is to get them all plus two of the dinners (pizza and steak) then release the updated game at that point or at the end of the month whichever comes first. If it's not too big I may release a "patch" from last months which should be easier to download. (ETA: It is too big.)

Above is the scene where Ariane picks a play list of music to play on the bluetooth speaker. I could not find a 3D model of a speaker, so I used a guitar amp speaker, which doubles as a bluetooth, and yes these exist.

The Ariane model I'm using has ALL the clothes in the model, I just have to show and hide the pieces I want to render. This means when I get a picture positioned and posed, it is trivial to do all the other versions in various states of dress. So I've already made a shirtless, panties, swim, swim topless, black dress, and nude version of these picking playlists.

I also did all the dance animations for all of them too.

Found this cute pose of talking on the phone, and decided to use it to order pizza. Which leads to this picture:

Working on this picture is what I basically did during the Super Bowl which was playing on my ipad next to my computer. The biggest amount of time was setting up the neighborhood front yard, which is also used in all the garage pictures and walking to the park pictures, which I also did.

Rachel Update

I made an attempt to substitute the "Sydney Sweeney" version of Rachel into a test picture, and while it still doesn't say "Rachel" to me, she's damn cute. Have too much on my plate to do more than this, but it could be a fun side project for the 1 year anniversary update or something.
