A few more updates
🕑 Added 2020-03-17 20:09:47 +0000 UTCMany thanks on the overwhelming feedback of the last playblast! I was actually a bit shy to post it, since I think there's still a lot of things that need improvement, but I'm glad it already excited you despite the rough spots!
Despite the current lockdown in most European countries I'll be able to continue work as usual. If anything then it might make my progress on this animation a little faster, since I won't be distracted by travels. I recently got back from a short business-related trip to London, and luckily everything went smoothly since airports were still functional a week ago. Looks like for now I'll be locked in and have all the time to focus on animating, so here's hoping I can further ramp up the progress within the next weeks and grind through the rest of this new animation!
Something that has me a little concerned though, is the entire economic freeze that is currently happening. NVidia was supposed to announce new cards in a few days, but called the entire announcement off yesterday, means I'll likely have to render this on current day hardware. I'll have to see if I can rent a Titan RTX once I'm close to rendering, as it's currently the only thing with enough video memory to render this animation in a timely manner at 60FPS and all. Should this not be the case then I'll have to look for alternatives. Having spent this much time animating, I want to ensure this animation is rendered in the most visually appealling way, so I'm a bit reluctant to compromise any of the visual quality. But we'll see how things are looking in a couple of weeks.
Zoe Voice Actress
I've been in touch with a potential new voice actress for Zoe after roaming through the infinite depths of Furaffinity. After hearing someone who goes by the name Gen Corgi voice another character, I immediately tossed her a note and found out she'd certainly be up for voicing Zoe in this new animation. The timbre of her voice is quite close to what I always imagined Zoe to sound like, on top of that she has a professional setup, so the quality of the samples should be quite pristine.
You can listen to her here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31553770/
Note that I'm still planning to have Hestia record samples as an alternative, But I'll have to see how burned out I'll be by the end of this. There's also a voice actor who will provide the voice of the 1st person character, but that's something I'll get into when I'm done animating!
Many thanks for the overwhelming ongoing support! I'm planning to have another playblast posted by the end of the month, so stay tuned! (:

Day 6 of quarantine midget porn is starting to grow on me.

I'm sure everyone knows the playblasts are early renders to show off motion and content, and not final quality, I'm glad you shared! It was worth getting to see, and personally, I love where it's going!

Quarantined animating! Sounds like fun, eh? I really like that Gen gal's voice, so that's something more to look forward to. You spoil us so much. ;)

Seems this has the right feel for Zoe. But maybe you can do both voices as a bonus since hestia has likely recorded but that is up to you.

the potential new VA sounds pretty good!

What happened to the old VA? Did she get sick or is she just doing other things or is the new VA just more in line with what you originally wanted?
