Please Do Not Redistribute My Mods Before It Goes Public

I have reports of my mod that's still patron only (in this case, Black Widow) posted in certain forum. I'm not gonna do a witch hunt on which Patron is posting that mod, all I want to say is, can you just wait until it goes public, please? It's only 15 days, two weeks. FIFTEEN DAYS, that's like blink of an eye compared to other paid mods that can stay paywalled from a month to like, forever. I made it like that so I can have something to reward my Patrons while public can get...

Poll Winner & Announcement

Karin from Street Fighter V won the poll

Other than Karin there's still other commission from last month I haven't finished yet. For commission project after that I will contact a commissioner(s) that's still in the waiting list in the middle of the month just like that for confirmation. I'm not sure if I can still have time for another personal project but we'll see.

As always thank you ...

[Honey Select 2] Haruka Sawamura (Yakuza 6) UPDATE

Haruka now have her own colorable make-up set, so overlay is no longer necessary.

Get her updated version in the release page 

This is long overdue and with Haruka make-up compatibility update done, the only remaining one is Jill but I want to heavily overhaul Jill anyway. So expect that some time later.

[Honey Select 2] Black Widow Public Preview & Character Profile

Profile from the wiki 

From the recent Marvel's Avengers game published by Square-Enix. Haven't play the game and probably never. This is good looking character though, not the same as the one you see in the movies but it's not supposed to. I'm not into American comics, not even the movies. But I do like strong female character type like her, so yeah.

Other reason for this project is ...

[Honey Select 2] Black Widow (Marvel's Avengers) Character Mod (UPDATED)

From the recent Marvel's Avengers game. Had to do some roundabout way to make brows working and completely re-rigging the hair because the original hair armature is way overkill. Also longer neck definitely makes her looks much better.

Initial release has problem caused by a mistake in the mod.xml. The problem is fixed now.

Honey Select 2 Poll (February 2021)

Poll time, lasting until the end of the month (I kinda forgot that February is shorter, whoops).

As before the entries are remaining ones, no new character added. And I just realized it should be Shinobu Jacobs, not Jackson. Seems nobody has play No More Heroes to correct me lol.

[Honey Select 2] Julia Chang Public Preview & Character Profile

Julia's profile on Tekken wiki 

First time I saw Julia in Tekken 3, she didn't look that special. I mean, you can see how generic she looked:

Glorious 3D render from the 90s

Then I saw her render for Tekken 4 and hoo boy, they did amazing job of redesigning Julia

[Honey Select 2] Julia Chang (Tekken 7) Character Mod

I like both hair style so I include both of them. Her secondary hair, which is the braided one from older games, has noticeably lower quality so I spent quite a while trying to fix it. It's still not as good as I want to, but it works. I also made the freckles adjustable as tattoo (paint 01). And lastly, her glasses (red and black one in the preview) is included.

HS2 Julia WIP (And About Commission)

Julia is almost finished, just need some polish and fixes especially for the second hair (her older version with braids). Yes, she will have two hair styles because I like both. Also her freckles will be adjustable/removable.

I've contacted two people I've chosen for commission I'll do for this month. If you didn't receive any message from me (where ever you contacted me first) then you're still in waiting list. Thank you for your patience.

[Honey Select 2] Aranea Highwind Public Preview & Character Profile

Aranea's article on Final Fantasy Wiki 

Aranea is not the main heroine of Final Fantasy XV, but I like her the most out of other female characters in that game. You all I know I like strong, badass character. Her armor design is awesome too and hopefully someone can port the outfit to HS2 as well

I like her enough that I decided to try porting her to HS2, and it wasn't as impossible a...

[Honey Select 2] Aranea Highwind (Final Fantasy XV) Character Mod

I spent quite a while to fix her hair and had to sculpt some expressions manually since the face rigging is not perfect. Kinda expected some difficulties but still quite manageable. I can't say the same for other characters from the game though.

Poll Winner, Plan, And Commission

First, winner of the last poll: Julia from Tekken 7

Second place is Karin from Street Fighter V. Will I do second place as well like last month? Depends on the time I have. Especially now that I started accepting commissions. We'll see.

About said commission, I've already made a post about it. I said that there will be waiting list, and I will inform people if their project is selected or not, meaning they have to wait for next selection. But thinking about it, maybe it's better i...

About Honey Select 2 Commission

I will start taking commission for Honey Select 2 from now on, you can PM me here or Discord however please read and understand these points I listed below thoroughly:

-I will only do 1-2 commission project per month. The order will be decided by me, if there are multiple offerings. So you'll be in a waiting list and during that time you can freely cancel your offer, as any money exchange will only happen when I confirm that we're officially starting the project.

[Honey Select 2] Reiko Hinomoto Public Preview & Character Profile

Reiko here hailed from Rumble Roses XX, a wrestling game released in 2006. I'm not into pro-wrestling but the characters caught my eye for the same reason Dead or Alive did. I think Reiko is the most distinctive looking out of all the casts. She's unique enough while the rest are somewhat generic and not aged very well. So in case anyone asking, no I'm not gonna do other characters from the game. And there's also technical issues.

I did Reiko and Anesthesia for HS1 before and now I reme...

[Honey Select 2] Reiko Hinomoto (Rumble Roses XX) Character Mod

For this version I decided to replace the tongue with HS2 default tongue and teeth with  Ada Wong RE2R's teeth since Reiko's original teeth and tongue are very low-poly. There's also some problem with normals notably the area between brows and eyelids. This is a very old model after all.

Honey Select 2 Poll (January 2021)

Poll time, same as before lasting for a week.

No twist this time, the entries are what remains after I did three of them last week. Was thinking to remove Leona since her KoFXV version looks much better but then it will be a while until the game release and the model being available anyway. So Leona stays.

[Honey Select 2] Ada Wong Public Preview (& Technical Talk)

Like Claire, Ada doesn't need an introduction. So here's preview for public. Ada's costume you see here is not included, but you probably already have the set if you use a repack. Credits to chw for porting the costume, and also big thanks to Darkruler4300 for helping me cracking the code of HS2 expressions.

So it took longer than I anticipated. Again, the asymmetrical face proved to be the hardest thing to deal with but other things were troublesome too. Spent few days trying to fix th...

[Honey Select 2] Ada Wong (Resident Evil 2 Remake) Character Mod

I did similar thing as Claire with Ada, adjusting the eye location so they're less asymmetrical. But other than that and smoothing the skin, I tried to be as accurate as possible. More technical rant on other post.

HS2 Ada Wong WIP

Got quite far with Ada, but obviously still a lot to do. As you can see head skin tone haven't quite matching the body yet, and the hair is a dithering mess among other things. One thing I haven't decide is about her eye make-up. For HS1 I removed them completely but it's difficult and in the end the result is kinda weird and messed up the overall texture. I'm not sure if the result is worth it, does anyone even want no make-up look of Ada? Let me know what you think.

Also yes, Ada outf...

I Made A Thing

https://twitter.com/cunihinx/status/1349957176589131776 

It's an animation I made using HS2 Video Export plugin. I just use some preset animation available in the studio and tweaked the lighting. It's something I made for fun (and testing purpose) so don't worry, I'll still focus on mods. I pick Mafuyu as subject because there's almost non existence of her rule34 out there.

[Honey Select 2] Seong Hui Public Preview & Character Profile

From Yakuza: Like A Dragon. Here's wiki page of her that I just link and not copy the text because of potential spoiler. 

Seong Hui is a cool and badass character, my favorite kind of female character. Despite her K-Pop look she's an effective leader of crime gang that won't hesitate pointing her gun at you.

[Honey Select 2] Seong Hui (Yakuza: Like A Dragon) Character Mod (UPDATED v1.5)

Since I've made plenty of Yakuza character mods before, the process isn't particularly difficult. The biggest roadblock for me is getting her skin, hair, and make-up color right. In the end the result will be very varied depending on lighting setup so please adjust the color as necessary to fit your setup. Like some of my other mods, I include cards with normal length neck and longer neck (using ABMX). Longer neck looks better in my opinion, but should that gives problem you can use normal on...

About Release Order This Month

After the poll result confirmed I've started work on both Ada Wong and Seong Hui, as I often working in multiple projects in parallel. Naturally Ada as the winner should be released first, that's her privilege as the winner and was my plan as well.

However just like Claire, Ada is pretty complex model and need more preparation. I want to avoid mistake I made with Claire so I want to take my time with Ada more. Seong Hui is far simpler, so she's far ahead in development. With that I've d...

Mini Poll: Graphics or DHH?

I'm curious about what people use in their Honey Select 2 setup. I personally use Graphics including for testing and making preview pic for the mod. Although sometimes I used DHH as well, and vanilla lighting to see how my mods look at its worst.

This is just for curiosity, feel free to vote below.

[Honey Select 2] Rinoa Heartily Public Preview & Stuff

This started as a test to see how Dissidia NT models behave in HS2. Rinoa here was about 70% complete when I put her on the poll to see how popular it is. Surprisingly, she came dead last with only 3% vote. That's really surprising to me because I thought Final Fantasy characters are guaranteed poll dominator but I guess Tifa and Aerith are on another level. But anyway, as I mentioned in other post she was almost done so will be released anyway.

[Honey Select 2] Rinoa Heartily (Dissidia NT) Character Mod

This started as a test to see how Dissidia NT models behave in HS2. The hair is heavy, almost 40k vertices and I had to edit the bones for HS2 hair physics to work properly. Eyelashes are troublesome too because of their multilayer build but thanks to roy12's custom material the issue is fixed now. I used hair tip color feature for the highlight so it can be adjusted separately.

No More Honey Select 1

Starting from 2021 I will no longer do anything for Honey Select 1. This include commission work, thus I will not accept HS1 commission offer anymore.

I know that some people are still sticking with HS1, and I understand that. However, I have lost my passion for playing and modding HS1 entirely. Even commissions. I don't hate money but surely you don't want to pay someone for something that he's lost interest with and risked having him half-assing the project you paid for. I apologize f...

[Honey Select] Yua & Shoko Public Preview & Character Profile

(These two are commissioned project)

Like Kirara and Kana, these two are platinum hostesses that player can recruit in cabaret management minigame. They're both modeled after adult video stars.

Yua is modeled and voiced by Yua Mikami. In the game's story, she's depicted as an ex-idol. This is also true for her real life model. Shoko is modeled and voiced by Shoko Takahashi. Her story in the game is that she's into drawing manga. However, real life Shoko is more into playing guitar...
