Final Render Sequence
Added 2017-03-08 10:18:26 +0000 UTCWe're getting closer to the release! Right now I'm animating the stomach cutout for a later sequence, had to quickly model something new there since the stomach model I usually used wasn't really cutout friendly. Sound still needs to be done as well, so overall it will just be a few more days. Meanwhile here's a sequence that shows the final render quality in motion~
Note that the second camera perspective will be released roughly a week after I post the new animation. Editing the character and re-rendering the entire thing threw me back a little, therefore the bonus content is still taking its time to render.

Small details make all the difference between good animation and outstanding animation :)

2017-03-10 17:27:57 +0000 UTCBy the way, something I found worth pointing out: The blue gem on her pendant, with the way it shines and reflects the environment as it moves: That right there is one of those little details you only see in purely professional CGI! I for one can't yet manage to get that sort of realism and pleasant feel with my materials, even when I'm sure I did everything right.

2017-03-09 13:10:29 +0000 UTCThe total runtime of actual animation is 58 seconds! Likely the shortest one, but for that it's probably the visually most elaborate one yet. There's also more to come since this is supposed to be a mini series! (:

2017-03-09 10:30:58 +0000 UTCThanks mate! Post production usually does a lot, especially when all the dynamic elements come together. (:

2017-03-09 10:30:22 +0000 UTCGlad you noticed! Was also hoping that would visualize the pressure of her jaws! ^_^

2017-03-09 10:29:12 +0000 UTCNext week looks good! Trying to get Laguna to hopefully record for it this weekend since I'm slowly approaching the sound design. (:

2017-03-09 10:28:24 +0000 UTCNote that gifs only use 256 colors. They use dithering to avoid color banding, which makes for a grainier look. Of course none of that will be present in the final animation, I mostly just use gifs here since patreon doesn't offer any of the newer video formats like webm to make small video clips that loop.

2017-03-09 10:27:08 +0000 UTCThis gif image looks grainy to me, is that weird? The image info says it is "853px × 480px (scaled to 890px × 501px)".

2017-03-09 05:05:28 +0000 UTCLooking amazing! :D ETA next week, then? Not trying to be sassy about how long it'll take to come out; genuinely curious as to whether you're aiming to have it out this weekend or by next weekend. o.o

2017-03-08 14:33:41 +0000 UTCIt's looking legitimately remarkable. Another render that's even better than the last, even when the last made you ask "just how could it get any better" :)

2017-03-08 11:09:08 +0000 UTCHappy you noticed! I went the extra mile and animated her pupils whenever she blinks as well. Took a bit of time animating, but I think it was definitely worth it. ^_^
