Progress Report
🕑 Added 2025-03-17 02:13:27 +0000 UTCAlright! Getting a progress report out on the proper schedule for once! Let's dive right in, shall we?
Left Hand Magic
Progress has been fairly decent here. Not spectacular, but decent. I've got two of the extra scenes completely rendered. Just one animation and a handful of stills for each, as these aren't super complex scenes. You can get the gist of them from the images, even if not the specifics ;-). I'll hopefully be starting on the next one tonight, as well.
At this point, baring a serious issue cropping up, I'm at least confident in getting the first four of the extras I'm hoping for into the build. I think I'll likely get another two beyond that, probably. Those are the Arianna alternates and thus more complex, so I'm not entirely sure on if I'll get two, or just the one.
Either way I'm hoping for a minimum of 6 new animations for the build. Which, considering the number of re-renders for old animations I also packed in, is acceptable just this once. Not quite as good as I'd hoped for, but acceptable.
Short Story
I've got a start on this. It proved to be considerably more complicated than expected. I was unable to locate the original Deck of Many Lewd/Erotic Things that I thought I remembered existing. So I actually ended up spending a full day and a half building one.
On the plus side, if it turns out that people like the resulting story, I can refine the document just a bit and end up with something usable for more stories in the future. Heck, I might even make a quick a dirty deck randomizer people can play with at some point, if I'm ever feeling up to it. As is, it's possible this first Deck of Many Lewd Things story might become a two-parter or more, simply because doing justice to it might take more than the 5kish words I put into short story rewards each month. We'll see.
Anyway, I actually got a solid thousand words into the story itself as well, before having to set it aside for a more time-critical writing project. As I've worked out the hardest bits of it already now, I don't think I'll have much trouble finishing it when I get the time to double back to finish it.
Mixed Media Short
The renders for Cara Loft (Part 8) and coming along. A little slower than usual, but not unduly so. I have nine done, with at least one more to go tonight. Essentially I'm actually hitting my usual average speed, but got started a day late. So long as nothing goes too off kilter, there shouldn't be too much of an issue getting this done roughly on the usual schedule (around the 24-25th).

Well, that's all for now folks! I'll try to keep the Progress Reports going at a steady pace! Even if I'm often a little bad at it...

*sweat drop* That's a little too true. I hold myself to a standard I know is probably unreasonable. But better that than making excuses for why yet another month slips by with nothing, like some developers that are way too relaxed with their content -_-.

Well I have never seen a bad progress report yet, and if I ever hear you say, "progress is spectacular" 😲 I am sure my mouth will fall open 😂.
