Late May 2023 Public Scene Pack Release!

Heya, April here!
It's July, which means it's perfect time to release some May scenes, right?

As always, nothing fancy here, some of the old commissioned scenes, contest entry, and my own weirdness, but i hope that you'll find it to be somewhat useful for yourself!

Monthly Report ~ Summer, Country House, Delays

Greetings, April here!
Not-So-Monthly report, yay!
It's been a while since the last report, so let's talk about what's going on a bit!

Summer and Delays

As some of you may know - i have a country house that i visit almost every weekend by the summer, and it gets really busy and exhausting, especially closer to July. Unfortunately, because of busy IRL (and somewhat lack of privacy) i can't fully work on new content, which cr...

June 2023 Scene Pack ~ Scene 2 ~ Early Access

Heya, April here!
Pretty convenient bathtub placement, don't you think?

Once again, nothing really special here, just weird scene that i've made thanks to one of the references that i have in my even more weird folder...but you know, those model photoshoots in abandoned houses are pretty popular, so maybe you'll find it useful for yourself!

You will find the Scene, Preset and Tips in the zip file in attachments down below!

June 2023 Scene Pack ~ Scene 1 ~ Early Access

Heya, April here!
You remember my plans for scene remastering? Yes, it's still a thing!

Small backstory time - i've made and posted original render on July 8th 2020, i still had barely any ideas of what i'm doing, and i've been using DHH back then, which makes this particular scene unusable for Graphics mod right now. So, since i have proper and better classroom scene now, i've decided to remake this scene, to make it more up-to-date in terms of characters,...

April Scene Pack Scene 1 ~ Early Access

Heya, April here!
Let's test it a bit with new way of releasing scenes. Here is one of the multiple scenes that will be part of the April scene pack!

Nothing really special or interesting here, just simple scene that you can, for example, use as base for your future stickers. Good thing about it is that Text here is basically transparent cube .PNG with white text on it, so you can easily replace it with anything you want!
Just remember to use .PNG ex...

February\March Scene Pack ~ Early Access

Heya, April here!
It's the end of March, so it's time to release at least something!

As some of you may know, i've had certain events happened in February, and i went missing for some time, so i couldn't really focus on character and scene making, so that's why we have less stuff for now and why i'm naming this release as double month. Wish it would also be x2 bigger, but nope, and i'm sorry once again.
I plan to make some changes in scene releases next m...

Heya, April here!
Guess who is super late again?

Not sure who is the original creator of Track & Field map, but as my friend have said - it's been in the folder named "るしふぁ - Rushifa", so i hope it gives at least a little credits to it!
