Linda Update

Added 2021-02-03 12:04:42 +0000 UTC

Well, my original plan after the previous update was to post the completed gif, but that won't be happening for another day or two, so. I hope you guys will accept the-- mostly-- finished product for now. As well as a few announcements relating to it.

I've been encountering-- and, consequently, searching for solutions to-- a variety of issues while doing this that I've never come across before, and it's eaten up additional time to just doing the animation itself.

And while I was also enamored with the idea of having her face in the corner, it's going to create more work than I think it's worth. Not to mention, if I wanted both her body and the face in the corner to stay in the video, they'd both have to be resized, as Linda grows considerably by the end. And I really, really would rather not shrink Linda's body down just to accommodate her face, which we'll see in the final frames anyway.

I also need to tweak her expressions a little, and have her mouth some of her lines when she does face the camera, so expect to see some changes there. That's my hope, at least.

I've already got a background and even some lighting effects finished, but they aren't visible here.

I'm hoping to have the completed -gif- version posted within the next day or two. The actual video with audio will be a different story.

I have to admit, I got in way over my head with this one and didn't realize just what I was getting into, but we're coming down the home stretch now, and I want to see it through.

Thank you all for your enduring patience and support.
