Upcoming Things April +
🕑 Added 2022-04-17 16:20:54 +0000 UTCHappy Easter, everyone! And hopefully happy discount chocolate day tomorrow!
I wanted to share some work I've been doing. I fully admit I haven't been updating the website as much as the Discord and I'm at fault. I have a bunch of things I'm tossing back and forth but there is one I'd like to have done for today.
Let's talk about the upcoming things.
1. Vanilla the rabbit from Sonic - requested + sponsored for a while now. It's a simple bubblegum one (model needed work) + I actually learned some physics! her ears there, they didn't have anything, and I spent a bit to learn how to adust/apply some! So even if you're not into Vanilla, I still learned something from this.
I admit this one was pretty last minute because I realized that "oh yea someone asked me about this" so they wound up sponsoring it and I don't mine having it for today (or tomorrow at latest). But in the Easter Bunny spirit I'd like to have for today. Even though she's not realy an easter bunny :D maybe next year I can get like bunny Bulma or some other bunny suited lady for the Easter Bunny? Balloon Vine did come up (cause she has one) However Imba did use her before a couple times.
To note: I generally am not sure about sonic characters other than her and Rouge, because I don't want to start a fight about age. Even though some of them are adult but not given actual age I've had some issues in the past.
2. The drawing of Lindsey. I'm designing her a new outfit. I'm trying to pick and choose what stays and goes from the old outfit, but the purple bra will be there for when her top pops open. (or if I can get the model to have a second layer there) :D The icon there is just design work I've been doing to give her a logo for her jacket. Also no it's not perfect, I just have an outfit reference I like, but I won't be copying it exactly.
Hair, Glasses, and the Vial at her choker are staying. Boots and gloves I'm thinking about keeping as well or at least changing them up a little. (I've been pondering how to work that vial into something...)
TLDR if you don't know about Lindsey, otherwise you can skip this paragraph:
Yea if you didn't know, I am open to saying this just to make sure people know, but Lindsey was not designed as an OC officially. Personality-wise, she is an OC, but physical design, no. She was a lower/barely used character from Soccer Spirits. The model was a gift from a friend cause he knew I loved her design. However as much as I've developed her and used her in a lot (not just animation), she's become my own character in spirit. By American law, she has a very high chance to be my character since she was not developed much at all or hardly there in the game and I have done more with her... however the game is not American and the law saying it is a bit based on a bunch of factors, thus it might still be a problem in the future. Also in case that google is incorrect on information... cause internet... and I'm not just going blind into this and I'm not a copyright law expert.
So to separate her a bit from her original, I'm designing her a new outfit, and from a friend, giving her a full name. I know it's not perfect, but I'm doing my best.
3. Melony and Klara. These will be a couple different animations, but I've been working with the VIPs on the discord about doing things with them. And I have some plans coming up. So I got them readied up for inflating.
4. Giantess Bremerton + POV - I got an idea to do something with this. I want to attempt it if I can.
I'm starting to enjoy turning the VIP renders into animations. It's kinda like you see a sequence and then are like "huh that would be cool if I made it more animated and added this and this and that..."
However please note that I cannot add this as a possibility to the Patreon VIP tier as I cannot promise to have an render-> video for each month. I'm not picking because of favoritism, I'm picking when I get an idea or see it as something simple I can animate to keep things going. (like the Bowsette and the couple of balloon renders I did). If I put it as a tier thing, then I will be obligated / pushed to pick things to animate rather than "hey that looks fun." and you know me... if it's fun to animate I'll enjoy doing it. Trying to keep this stuff as much fun as possible so it doesn't act like a job. I mean yea it kinda sorta is now... but it's the whole thing my grandfather kept telling me before he passed away many years ago I want to keep in spirit where to keep it fun.
Anyway that's all for now. I'll be back when I have Vanilla's animation ready. (It's close to done)

Yea I had stopped long ago. They did "end the game" technically recently and I was curious to actually contact to ask... however their contact info is very hard to find, and I was worried about any bad things if I poked the hornets nest.

The character redesign phase is a great place to be!
