Update. Pause Pledge for December
🕑 Added 2019-11-27 10:05:11 +0000 UTCI will be pausing pledge charge for December. December will be combined with the month of October as I catch up content. It's crazy impossible to do all the content I need within the few days left in November. I feel it not right to charge current patrons for content I still need to catch up on.
The past few days I was able to organize my spreadsheet of comic releases as well as my trello comic progression board. I didn't realize how much this helped me keep track of everything. My system of working is slowly being put together one by one. Next thing I really need to do is create a schedule and stick to it.
I spend so much time browsing for sexy outfits and various other 3D content to use in my stories. It's time consuming, but then on the other hand, I have a large library of stuff to use so that's a good thing.
Also, those past few days I rendered out the 360 turntable animation. I did 2-3 pass and problems arose which made me just render half the size and with 200-400 render iterations. It finished faster, but at a lower quality. I'm not sure I like to do this that much since it takes time to finish and it makes my room super hot. I'm slightly scared of it stressing my PC hardware, which is why y'all haven't seen much of the turntable animation. I'll consider more of this if I do get another PC that way this can run in the background while I work on the real content. I'll probably do some 360 turntable animations here and there, but it's not my main concern. I like doing them because you get to see the character 360. It's a little different when you get to see the character kinda in 3D versus the character being stuck to the 2D image.
One of the things I noticed when I do the 360 turntables is that there is a speed up and a slow down which doesn't evenly space the frames of the animation. I'm kinda picky since I prefer it to be evenly space since the turntable is a looped animation.
I have several other turntable animations I'll like to put up sometime too. Most likely as gif if not video format. I surprise myself sometimes when I come across some content I rendered and forgot about. Mostly test renders though.
I'm learning how to transfer face morphs from male to female to make gender bender sequences better. It's really tricky right now. Far distant future is to learn how to create custom clothing and environments to better serve the comic stories. Buying them from 3D vendors will do for now tho.
I plan to update the tier information for the upcoming 2020. More information about the changes to come.
