Some updates

Hi everyone!
I would like to give you some updates.
- As you might have noticed from some of my Twitter posts (here and here, and some additional stills here), I'm working on a new Lara model. Some things will be improved with respect to Tifa model, for instance the skin textures and shaders, plus better morphs. I added only one original outfit, but depending on how much the model will be used, I will consider to add new outfits.
I can not give you an ETA for the release of Lara, but I hope to have more informations soon. I think this will be the best model I have ever made, and therefore I would like it to be as good as possible from day-one. :)
- But this is not the only thing I'm working on. I am really unsatisfied by my very old attempts at making some DOA models. Maybe someone remembers my very old models of Ayane and Kasumi, which I admit are pretty terrible on every aspect. But it was almost two years ago! Therefore I would like to make another try at making some DOA models.
Firstly, pardon me if I can't make a proper scene. My PC doesn't handle well two models, and with a scene it's an instant crash!
Secondly, I know that some of you won't be very satisfied by the general look, which might seem more realistic than the game models. To be honest, there are tons of DOA models which can be easily imported in Blender, and this is the main reason why I wanted to make something slightly different. I don't pretend that all the models I do will be widely used, so if this experiment will go wrong, I will just turn back to other franchises. Please, let me know what you think, you're feedbacks are always appreciated and considered. :) - I am also considering the possibility of making some streamings in order to help people with the implementation of some features (like MustardUI or physics) in their models. I can also consider to stream while I work on some models, but I don't know if that will be interesting (sometime it can be a very boring work!).
- I would also like to spend a few words on the smutba.se (the public and free website where I release my models) situation. At the moment, the download (and maybe upload) speed is throttled because the servers are used by more people than they are capable to manage. Some people asked me to how to download large models like Tifa (and soon Lara) without waiting hours, so I decided to upload my new models also on Mega. Patreons will be able to find them in a dedicated Mega folder.
Finally, thank you for your support.
If you have any question, please write me on Twitter or Discord. :)

Yes, in fact there are not so many DOA models for Blender. The main reason I can think of is that people really like the cartoon-ish look of DOA models, and that can be achieved with a simple import of XPS models from Deviantart. Here I tried to give DOA models a more realistic shaders and look, so I'm not sure all people will like it. But what do you think? Are they too different from the game ones? Do they look nice? :)
