Hey guys, I hope you are doing nice!
So with the idea that remaining silent in the current days is terrible, I decided to post something that I actually forgot to post when I released Lanaya (btw, she’s should be already released)
Basically, a patron actually guessed right before her release. Rules are rules, and just as the rules I myself created, that patron could have a model out of the queue and get her straight as the next model.
Hey guys!
Originally I wanted to make this post part of the release one, but I decided against, since both of them should be focused on its own thing. So in this post, I'm going to talk more in detail about the changes I did in. This model has many changes, maybe not too much in amount, but more in what it entails to make them.
The model’s textures were pretty low res. The only choice I had was upscaling them using third ...

Hey guys! I hope you are doing ok!
So, when I began the outfitting, I just realized I actually messed something up, the character does indeed something with the letter C, however, it is not a Cape, it is a Cowl, sorry for spreading fake news!
Anyway, the model is more or less ready to be rigged, and right now I’m currently sitting on this Rig Riddle.
After some posing, this is how the Cowl looks like:

Hey guys!
So I was thinking something pretty silly, just to keep things a bit animated around here. It’s a bit silly, but I think it could be something funny to see.
So, did you guys check the previous post? If you don’t, check it.
What about now? Can you guess who’s that character?
This is where the silliness begins: If you can guess the character’s name, you win a Submission-less model.
Hey guys!
I want to give you guys a little update on how the model I’m working on is going. Like I mentioned, she didn’t have face bones, and I had to rig it. I’m glad to say, that step is done, and the flexing? It’s also done, we now can begin to work on the model itself!
However, I would like to, yet again, mention how I do face rigging.
Bone Groups are just what it means, they are groups of bones 2020-04-04 23:20:25 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey guys!

Anyway, so before I wanted to make a couple of comments about the idea I just had, and no, I didn't had a "no balls" situation, I'm going in.
What I wanted to tell you however, is a couple of things I'm going to do because I want to make this model to look good. Now, here we go:

2020-04-01 16:21:56 +0000 UTC View PostI write a lot of things I want to do. Some of them are ideas, some other are just assumptions, but I always share those with the only person I know who is very knowledgeable in both Source Engine and 3D stuff in general: LordAardvark.
In one of my latest stupid ideas, I was trying to find a way to connect help SFM users who got caught into the whole Windows 7 EOL thing (which personally, is surprising since it was announced like, 2 years prior) and were unable to install Windows 10.

In my current working Worfklow, texture build is the last step. This means I've rigged, bodygrouped and compiled the model. I always do a simple Rig Test in Blender to see an approximation of how will the rig behave in SFM (3-weight limit.)
Long, long ass time ago, I got a m...
2020-03-25 18:35:05 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys!
So during this day, I was thinking about making a post in here about the research I’m doing. The research is basically me needing to understand how viable is still to run this Patreon page. There has been a couple of reforms here and there, and one of them kinda endangers the viability of Patreon, because if I need to pay more, then Patreon is going to stop being viable.
Anyway, because of this, I was doing my research and so fa...
2020-03-25 17:52:00 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, so this is going to be rather quick.
I'm preemptively pausing the Page this month. Recently, there has been a lot of movement around, and there are rumours that some internet prices around my area might go up.
I will try to research it as much as I can, since it seems like it's going to be a deal breaker (rumours says the price increase is going to be pretty high and I want to be quad sure.)
Please wish me good luck, because I'm honestly hoping for positive results...
2020-03-09 23:27:35 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! I hope you are doing great!
Before I even begin, I'd like to ask, did the page appeared as paused? I remember I paused it, but I checked right now out of curiosity, it wasn't... so I kinda want to make sure if I did pause it or no...
Anyway, back to topic.
So, in the recent time, I wanted to build more practice models. Symmetra marks the end of all of the proposed Practice Models, and the Mystery Practice Models are models I 2020-02-24 22:53:34 +0000 UTC View Post
Let's start with the request: Because of the Drive issues I've had, I don't have the model anymore, so, does anyone have the Patreon's only version of Tatiana Gutierrez?
If so, please, please re-upload her and post the link on the comments. The model is already pretty outdated and has hair issues and I don't think it should be Patron's only anymore.
Please don't send me a message asking for permission to re-upload and...

Sorry for the delay! The Page has been paused, so this means you guys won’t get charged for this month.
Also, quick note: I think I’m not going to make a DeviantArt page. The site is really awful and it’s a fucking nightmare to browse through. So the search for a place to talk about model stuff still is on.
Holy shit this reminds me I need to send a message regarding model releases…

I know it's obnoxious to get your mailbox getting filled with bs posts like this one, but this is necessary!
So, for anyone who wants to skip everything: Symmetra is officially into Outfitting stage. We are using her Default Outfit.
As for the details. Well, you see, like I mentioned in the previous post, I wanted to repair the outfit since it only has 1 sleeve, the left sleeve was missing in favour of the prosthetic.

2020-01-31 17:17:33 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! I hope you are having a good day!
There’s a little update regarding Symmetra. It’s a two-side update though.
On one side, we have the proper news: I did it. I’ve effectively merged the robotic arm and the Daz figure. It was really surprising, but it was done.
Honestly after all the hassle, I was wondering if it was even necessary. I didn’t notice, but the arm is not only the arm, is also part of her shoulder. This is like ...
2020-01-28 17:19:27 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys!
Now it’s time to begin working on Symmetra. So what is the objective of this model? Basically, make a model while preserving her robotic hand.
The task is particularly complex because I need both the arm and the figure to be merged, not to be joined.
As I’m writing in my book, they are not the same at all, but the differ...
2020-01-21 23:08:31 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! I hope you are enjoying the models so far!
So, after building those models, there's one model left from the "unveiled" list, after that, the unknown list is next.
The reason of this post is, before I begin working on Symmetra (expect a post about it too btw), I would like to start a quick feedback about the models so far, and I need you guys to help me with it, allow me to elaborate:
Feedback on the new flexes/mouth setup.

Hey guys! Before I start, I'm very sorry it took this long, but I have paused this month's bill, this means you won't get charged this month as per our agreement.

2020-01-12 20:21:45 +0000 UTC View PostBecause of the history those particular titles have, I carefully decided to neither title this nor tag it as a "Let's Talk" post. However, there are a few things that I think that are worth mentioning!
Hey guys! I hope you are doing alright!
In the last few days I’ve been pretty busy with real life stuff, so development on Hsien-Ko has been pretty slow. I hope in the next days the speed gets fixed to a more regular rate.

2020-01-02 18:58:18 +0000 UTC View PostThis year was really hard. It was a full rollercoaster with many ups, and many, many downs.
This was the year where models kicked my ass the most. And this was also the year were I had to pause the patreon page the most because of external issues. And this was also the year were I had a life-threatening accident that made me take another break.

So, I was working on Juri, and she's done and everything, however, I just remembered something important: her mouth rig is not properly renamed.
While this is not truly an issue by itself, it kinda is since I want to have some sort of naming convention.
To make things a little worse, it seems like the Rig script I made was coded with my buttcheeks because I can't figure it out lol 2019-12-16 22:30:22 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey guys! First of all, I’m sorry for not being able to post everything on time this month. I haven’t feeling pretty well, so I’m basically trying to do everything as normal as I can do it. This post is going to be filled with a lot of information, so I hope you guys read this post in its entirety.
So, after too much thinking, I’ve came to a conclusion I’d like to share with you: Starting this month, the Patreon page is going to get paused until February is done. 2019-12-09 22:32:37 +0000 UTC View Post

But anyway. I did a few changes to Akali, one of them being artificially increase the poly count.
