After going back and forth between various tests, I ultimately decided on using Zoe, as the purple color didn't sit too well in the scene. Overall Zoe's white fur ended up looking rather well with the ambitious scene lighting. Took a day and half a headache getting her hair and the other changes implemented, but in the end I'm much more satisfied with this result, as the purple version kept looking some cheaply applied fix that was implemented in the very last minute.
Either way, here are some fully rendered out frames, final quality and all! While progress is quite good, there's still a lot of frames I need to render, apart from that the cutout for her stomach isn't even animated yet, but I'll get to that once the rendering work is done. Still need to do sound as well, so it's safe to say it's still going to take a week at the very least. For that I hope that the final render quality on display here shows how much has been going into crafting these visuals, especially compared to those playblasts from earlier this month. (:
