Genshin Commission Animation Previews

Alright, final update before this is finished. I've mostly figured out flip fluids now, much easier to use than the default blender method now that I'm more used to it. Just ironing out some final kinks in the fluid sim and we'll be good to render. Should be able to upload the final thing in a day or two.

Heya, just wanted to let you all know I'm still working on the animation. Had to switch to FlipFluids for the fluid simulation because the default blender method would randomly explode too often. Fighting to the death with flipfluids currently, simulating relevant tests takes forever, but I'm winning the fight at least. Good thing is once I've got it all figured out and done, rendering will only take a few hours and I should finish that day, and fluids should be much easier in the future. Hope to be done soon!

Alright, added most of the physics. Still need to do hair and lisa's hat but that's about it. Just fluids after that. This is probably the last preview before we're finished, hopefully the fluids cooperate this time (pretty good chance since I know a lot of things to avoid now)

-

Preview again! Sorry this is taking so long. Sadly I think I'm setting a record here...

Movement is mostly fleshed out now, not much is changed until the climax about halfway in. Will need to check back with commissioner again but if all seems well I can start on physics and fluids!

New preview again!

Took much longer than expected to move everything and fix the timings. All set up now though! Basically all bugs should be fixed, save for some clipping that will be fixed after physics. Managed an okayish transition to climax I think, but the arms are definitely in need of some more work. Will need to set up lisa's head movement too. Just physics and fluids after that. I think I finally see the end of the road... this animation was way too ambitious for me, but at least I'm learning!

Alright, new preview!

Getting a bit long so I decided to just use redgifs for this one.
Gonna be honest, the latter half of this animation was kind of exploding my brain a bit, but I think I've finally got a handle on it. Pre-climax/transition looks a bit fast and short to me, will be adjusting and extending a bit. Basic climax motion exists now too, will be refining after adjusting the overall pacing of stuff. After adjusting preclimax things should go very smoothly.

-

Hey all, no new preview just yet, just wanted to let you all know that I'm still actively working on the animation. We're doing a bit of a transition section between loop and climax this time instead of just going directly to it, and it's giving me some slight trouble. The climax itself should be simple on the other hand, since it's basically like the ank*a animation. Should have a new preview soon, thank you for your patience!

-

Alright, added variation to mona, tweaked lisa's movement, fixed a bunch of errors that popped up when I switched outfits, outfit moves with throat bulge now (though it doesn't appear to clear on the gif).
Time to start on the climax movements, and after that it's just fluids and other physics

-

Alright, new preview! Fixed up base loop and extended it with variation.  Only added the variation to lisa so far though, more to do and tweak.  Once that's looking good it's time to work on the climax!

-

Alright, first moving preview! Will still be tweaking this base loop, but we'll be moving pretty swiftly along to reaching loop length and variation similar to the ank*a animation, and working on the climax after that. And yes, there's no way I will finish this before the end of the month. I lost so much time last month that it's impacting this one pretty significantly, and this month hasn't been much better than the last one in terms of crazy shit happening (car trouble, fleas, food card issues and more!) Gonna do my best to speed things along, but honestly speaking my brain is a bit overloaded. That said, most of the problems are dealt with so here's hoping nothing else bad happens.
(And thank you all for your support despite my lackluster schedule. I really appreciate it)

This animation will have two outfit variations for Mona, so this preview has the 2nd outfit. Fixed up lots of stuff and changed up the camera angle. Had to fix and redraw a lot of the fishnet leggings. Fixed a weird thing with Mona's left leg. Don't remember what all I fixed because I'm a fuck. Next preview will animated!

-

Scene is mostly set up now, can start animating soon. Just need to verify some stuff with the commissioner. Woulda had this preview out sooner but I was having trouble with the lighting, and more disasters to deal with IRL. Moving preview soon!
