Hello everybody! happy 2020!
we want to share some news. In December, we had a long delay (those who came to us recently did not feel it, but those who see pages 150 now see this delay) ... the fact is that we are now actively trying to improve the clothes of the characters. This seemed, in principle, not a very difficult task, but as we plunged into it, we were forced to abandon simple solutions that did not allow us to make normal, beautiful folds of clothes and use more realistic physics. This is an eternal problem and most even large studios always try to “cheat” this problem by making simplified clothes or using folds drawn on the texture. we decided to go ahead and make realistic geometric folds without cheats. It seemed quite simple and we did not think that it would cause delays for more than a few days. However, as we dive into the topic, we discovered a number of problems. The current capabilities of the latest version of the applications that we use do not allow us to work normally with folds in fully automatic mode (so that the computer considers how folds should be deformed in the name, depending on the character’s position. It looked too sloppy and sophisticated, so we developed a technology to create more pleasant and natural folds on clothes. Alas, it took 3 weeks to fuss and this is not completely good. We started this fuss because of the decision to climb a couple more steps in quality. Comparison after the first pages of the comic with the early, first pages ... we see that the quality of the early pages is terrible and we will probably create improved versions of them taking into account all the new knowledge and experience that the entire comic book was of uniform quality, and we will have to create clothes for 42 characters and this is a tremendous amount of work, which is better done now than later to turn over more pages of bad clothes. We decided to use the New Year holidays to complete this improvement. But, as I said, these delays will be noticed mainly by A-club members who see the last pages. for all others, updates will still be regular.
thank you for being with us!
