Yuffie Kisaragi

I recently ported Yuffie Kisaragi to Blender. You can get her on smutba.se.

I was going to attach her files here for convenient download, but patreon limits me to 199MB attachments now, I guess. I'm honestly not surprised considering my earnings have dropped dramatically ever since they told me I can't post the majority of my works here, but it is what it is.

Nier Replicant v1.22 Character Resource Pack

So I ripped a bunch of characters from Nier Replicant. Hopefully this will kick-start images and animations of characters from the game.

Updates

I've updated Orphea on Smutba.se and finally added my recreation of Skyrim's The Winking Skeever on Open3DLab. Get them while they're hot!

Huh.

I've obviously not had much to put on here lately, but I'm not *dead*, really. More to the point, I just haven't had any content that fits the niche that this patreon now has to fill. I am working on doing ports again, and I'm working on getting Yrel (from WoW) ported to blender. It's not a big job, since I'm highjacking a lot of the work MustardSFM has done for his Draenei model on Smutba.se, but it's at least something I can share here.

What's Going On

Heya, ZixH... err, Jinira here. Due to my previous name being associated with content I do not want to use this platform to fund, I've changed my Patreon name and tightened up my mission statement to make it clear what this page is intended to support. I apologize for any confusion this causes people, but this project is intended to be almost entirely dedicated to model ports and creations that are released on smutba.se and open3dlab.

Progress

So as I said in my previous post, I'm porting assets from Skyrim to Blender. I just wanted to post an update detailing what I've worked on. People who have played enough of Skyrim may recognize that I'm basically rebuilding Solitude's The Winking Skeever in Blender. In pursuit of this, I've ported more than 250 assets from Skyrim to Blender, and I'll be building onto that as I continue. I'm currently at the furnishing stage.

Now, in a perfect world, I could just grab the location data o...

Plans

So a big issue I always have is finding environments to do the dirty in. Awhile back I released my Skyrim room, which came with a minimal asset pack of Skyrim ports. I've been thinking about that for awhile now and I've decided that I want a bigger pack to pull assets from. Instead of just grabbing at stuff randomly until I have enough, I'm in the process of rebuilding one of the Skyrim Ta...

It's a new day

June has been a rather chill month. I got a couple of really fun image sets done and I got a short animation out. 

I have two short loops planned out and partially started, but one of them is proving to be a technical challenge due to some physics shenanigans. The other is just a matter of sitting down and animating it. July 4th is coming up and I'm AMERICAN so I want to do something silly for that. Nothing more than an image or two, but still.

I'm still sitting on that stupi...

So long, May

Last month, I mostly focused on working on my framing, lighting, and composition. I put out some image sets and focused on improving my craft.

I've got an idea for a short animation I'm working on and have gotten it partially blocked in. I want to try to crank out animations again and I'm feeling pretty confident about this next one. It'll be on the shorter side, since I'm still focusing on framing and now I want to apply what I've learned from stills to an animated work.

I don't ...

Progress Report

Oo boy, I'm late, aren't I?

I finished that animation and have been posting random renders a bit recently. Dissidia Tifa got an update since the FF7 Remake resulted in a renewed interest in her. Now that the actual FF7R Tifa has been released by hantzgruber, I assume many will switch to that model, but I do know some people prefer the Dissidia version. I personally think the remake version has a better/more detailed outfit, so maybe some hybrid version is possible in the future.

On current events...

I'd like to thank the people who are sticking with me through these hard times. I understand with the pandemic that things are pretty tough right now. I'm not going to lie: I haven't released much of anything this month and I apologize. It's not for lack of trying: I currently have an animation 99% complete on the animating side just waiting for a couple of tweaks before I go ahead and start rendering it out. It's about a minute in length as I promised in the progress report at the start of t...

Progress Report

I'm going to try to do monthly progress reports from now on. As I hope you all know, a lot of my content cannot actually be posted on Patreon, so it often looks like I'm not doing anything at all. Unfortunate, but a reality. As always, the best way to keep up to date with what I am doing is to follow my twitter. 

That said, last month has been pretty busy for me. Most of the work I did was to increase the canvas of models I have to work with, and make those available for others to ...

Skyrim Room

I've shared a new environment on Open3DLab. Some might recognize it as the room from my mini-VN, Curiosity. I figured people might enjoy using it to make their own scenes. Check it out! https://open3dlab.com/project/587/

Ava - Borderlands 3

I just submitted my Ava port Smutbase. If it gets through moderation, it'll be available there soon (edit, available now: https://smutba.se/project/485/ ). If not, as usual it will be available for direct download to my patrons. This has been a really fun port, and I even put together a rudimentary toon-style shader for her. I hope everyone enjoys!

Also there's a NSFW Ava animation in case you missed it.

Model Updates

Both Tifa and Tali have been updated. Tali now has a Blender 2.80 version and Tifa got some small improvements and bugfixes. As usual, you can find them on Smutba.se,

Orphea 1.4

I've updated my Orphea port to Blender 2.8. As always, she's available publicly on Smutbase, sfmlab's non-SFM model repository, and I'll also be making her available here as a patron-only post for the convenience of my patrons. Everything should be working, but if anyone runs into any problems, please let me know. :)

Next up should be an update to Tali.

Temporary Suspension

Some may have noticed my patreon has been suspended for the past few days. This was partially due to two things: a fun-hating funny guy from 4chan and me misunderstanding Patreon's community guidelines. As part of my status being restored, my interpretation of the situation is that I am no longer allowed to link from my pixiv to patreon. This is an unfortunate situation but it is not a deal breaker.

That said, these past few days have not been idle time. I should have something to show ...

Status Update

I'm currently working on a small animation loop. For the first time, I'm actually rendering out different angles so that if my first pick doesn't suit your fancy, there will be other option to see the scene. I've already rendered out two of the angles, and the other two should be done and ready for upload by the end of the week. After the scenes are rendered, it's simply encoding them into webms and then doing a censored version for Pixiv. 

I'm now going to talk about Blender:

Orphea update

I've updated my Heroes of the Storm port of Orphea. You can find her on smutba.se! <3

Environments

One of the less inspiring things about jumping into Blender is that I've found environments and setpieces aren't quite as commonly shared as, say, character models. There are some, but not as many as you'd think. Thus one thing I find myself needing practice on is doing environments. For many of my sets, I've borrowed assets from other sources. The fact of the matter is that doing everything from scratch frankly doesn't make a whole lot of sense. All your time, especially when working solo, c...
