April 10th, project progress report.
🕑 Added 2024-04-11 14:41:56 +0000 UTCDid you all see that GIF?
Yeah, it makes me very proud.
I mean, this project was hard, very hard, I wasn't sure if I could finish it, and creators in the VAM community have all challenged this project, and I think they all failed.
I've tried this challenge a few times and released two versions, but I think all the old versions failed.
Until yesterday, when I released the YangMeV3.4 version, I succeeded!
I don't want to spread hate speech, I think Asian models are the most difficult to create, so I have to use Asian models all the time to practice my sculpting skills.
==================================================
Now back here, I want to tell you the reason why I don't post the Chinese model here:
1. These projects are too difficult and take too much time.
2. Most people here don't know Chinese celebrities.
3. All Chinese people cannot pay on Patreon.
4. Also, I will not publish European models, American models, Japanese models, and Korean models on afdian.
5. Most of you cannot pay on afdian. (So weird!)
Okay, back to Patreon, I recently decided to raise the price of all V3 models from $5 to $8.
I'm not a greedy person. I've been running my Patreon channel for 5 years and I've never raised the price. It's always been $5, right? A year ago I released the V3 models and claimed that these models were one of the top standards in the VAM community. I guess I wasn't lying or exaggerating.
V2 is the method that almost all VAM creators use now, it is faster and easier, I like the V2 model, it makes my job easier.
V3 technology is still a complex workflow. From collecting photos, modeling, sculpting, and then creating model textures, it takes a lot of time, and I have to face more pressure.
Although the V2 model is faster and simpler, the V3 model is better and more accurate. If you compare them side by side, the V3 model will crush the V2 from any angle.
However, I see other creators offering subscriptions for $10-$15 and $25, which makes me feel a little lost.
Lately, my subscriptions are still dropping because I am not fast enough, I do not reply to private messages on time, and I do not chat with everyone on discord.
I spend all my time on the V3 model.
So I adjusted the price of the V3 model, sorry.
Okay, this is what I want to tell you right now.
Next I have to work fast. I want to create a Dytto model for Mr. F. He joined here a few years ago. This is the request he initiated. Thank you very much.
I wasted too much time in 2023, and now I don't want to keep him waiting too long.
Thank you all, I love you!

Sir, this is just a project progress report. I thought I had accomplished an impossible challenge and I just wanted to show it off. I'm not encouraging everyone to go to afdian for consumption. You won't find any advertising links in the post.

Yo J. This $100 model was custom made by 10 of my fans who raised money. You can request a refund.

Sounds like a tricky situation. I wasn't aware of any of that. Can't fault his work at all - incredible skills and effort. Just one of my pet hates is when you sub on Patreon then once you are through the door you're asked to sub to another Patreon or suchlike. No offence to Bamair, he has got to do what he has got to do but... it's unfortunate.

Bam had an incident a while back where people took his work and posted it on an Asian-based marketplace. This can help understand why this move. Rather than his work be stolen and reposted (again) on an especially high-profile actress, he made the move to provide it himself there. That meant to isolate its content there — as putting it here would have led to the same exact problem all over again. Understandably, his trust here has waned. That said, I too wish I had access to the model. Consider patience and maybe in time, it may be available.

Ah, OK. Now I understand that and have an idea what kind of platform afdian is.

I do. I've bought all the afdian models, although one of them was over one hundred USD for a single model. I bought it mindlessly as I was clicking through them and felt instant regret. I also bought another one that looked like a model but doesn't actually seem to have any asset since I couldn't read Chinese and didn't know what the description said. The models on afdian are really good, but some of them are really pricey.

OK, think you have good reasons to be proud of your work. But many of the guys cant't check her out because they are no chinese people. Who has an acount on afdian?

It's a pity that you can't get the model you're so proud of because it's not Chinese. Okay, get to work.

What's a V3 model? What's a V2 model? What's afdian? I feel like there's a lot in this post that you assume we all understand and maybe some of us don't.
