UPDATE! + Whats to come

Hey everyone!

How have you all been? Good? That’s nice.

Me? Oh, horrible. I had this awful pain in the left side of my head and eye since Friday, but I’m all good now. I wanted to give you all an update because if I waited until my next project was finished, y’all would probably start wondering if I was dead—jk, jk.

So, I’m back in college, which means things are going to be a bit harder for me to get stuff done. But I’ll do my best! And if I ever feel like I’m not getting anything done, I’ll just pause billing until I make some real progress.

Updates:

This past week, while battling my eye pain, I worked on the Xenoqueen model and updated my Sadako model (which, by the way, was really bad since I made it three years ago).

For Xenoqueen, I decided to learn Rigify so I can set up armatures faster and improve my workflow. Before this, I had been using my old DIY armatures, which, honestly, weren’t the best. Now that I’ve improved, I might start updating some of my old rigs.

For her design, I decided not to give her breasts because the thing on her chest looks more like a ribcage. Plus, those tiny hands gave me some fun ideas, lol. Instead, I focused on adding a Pucci and making her ass thicker.

As for Sadako, I had to completely redo her textures because, like I said, the original model was three years old, and she was a mess. Her hands are pink, her face is white, and her legs are dark gray. Trying to get a consistent skin tone that matched her whole body gave me a the awchies, but I finally figured it out, and I’m happy with the results.

First, I’ll start working on the Xenoqueen loop animation though I just realized her massive tail is going to be a huge pain. Luckily, I already have some references lined up.

Then, I’ll move on to Sadako. I already have some ideas, but I’ll post a poll after posing her so y’all can choose the final pose, While you decide, I’ll keep working on Xenoqueen.

I might also do some simple renders of the new Rift skins, like I did with Taurie, just for fun, but no promises.

That’s about it for now. Enjoy the event! 💖

TL;DR:

Had a headache, so I focused on making the Xenoqueen rig and improving my old Sadako model. I’ll start animating Xenoqueen first, but I’ll post a poll soon for Sadako so y’all can decide the pose.
