WIP-2

Greetings, comrades.

This is a report from the depths of the abyss. And in touch, my productivity.

First about what I'm doing now. While rendering the last job, I started reworking two characters to make them easier to work with, because a shader like a genshin didn't allow the light to have any effect on the skin tone.

As you can see, one of these characters is Xinyan. The second character will remain behind the scenes for now for the sake of intrigue.

And I want to tell you, it's extremely bitter chocolate. She may not have complicated hair animation, but there are plenty of accessories that create a real pain in the ass. It's like I'm not working with her model, but she's working on my mental health and trampling my animation skills into a trash can.

How I wish I could start a project without a lot of mistakes, but why? When you can start making a mistake right away without a project, taking a far from the most popular character as the basis. And unfold events in a cave with a dark-skinned character. At that rate, you could have posted a black picture with the caption "Implied sex."

Well, here's some funny bugs for you.

The shading was a little broken in places, and I don't understand how it happened, but I would even leave it that way, at least something would give light to the cave scene!
The rest, this breaking of the coordinate axes of the bones in some places of the different animations, looks funny.

Now about the old work, I don't see the point in splitting it into two posts.

I failed again with the cloth simulation, instead I got a nice sail, the wings can be safely thrown away.

And my biggest pain was the simulation of fluids. Visualizing spurts of liquid from my mouth without flooding the entire tea house komore, proved to be quite a challenge. Usually I try to solve the situation, but this problem forced me to make a decision  ” That'll do”. Since the trial generation takes almost a day, and the cache was starting to weigh 35 gigabytes.
And that was a serious mistake.

I didn't think at all about the fact that this solution is not acceptable to everyone. All that ocean of condensed milk ended up stretching the final rendering. And because I also wanted to please you with normal 4k, the rendering stretched for 15 FUCKING DAYS. Making the blanks for the next projects in parallel was mind-bogglingly fun with a busy computer.

Even the sound work was done in advance blind.

But I managed to get the right assets and raise my skills a bit, now I have to understand the physics of soft bodies, and hopefully there won't be any problems with content production.

Except for sound, finding the right sounds will always be a problem. Especially when a certain moment in the scene requires you to almost compose a symphony.

The next animation will be ready in at least two weeks if the work due to the busy scene does not slow down and everything goes smoothly.

Thank you for your attention, I hope I didn't bore you with a mountain of text and that the translator didn't twist the meaning of what I said anywhere.
