InitialA
Hello. This is InitialA. or some may also know me as ffxivinitiala (twitter/ffxivInitiala) and InitialA from pixiv (user/82713435). I'm a beginner NSFW animator. I mainly animate Final Fantasy girls and some random girls I like from the games I play.You don't need my permission to share or dub/voice any of my animations. feel free to do so.
And here I am again~ are you well? It's Monica & Iris, MonIris time. PIXIV MEGA
I spent lot of time trying to make the Physics cage to work on Iris' breast. end up discarding it and used the old trusty shapekeys just like how I did Nophica and Halone.
And you might have noticed that Monica whispered something to Iris. for those wondering what she said to Iris, I'll leave that to your imagination. it was just a little detail I put on the spur of the moment. I'll be doing June swimsuit set too for XV girls after I'm done with the others. XV girls will have their own separate release. I'll try to animate all the rigged XV girls for June. not all in 1 scene though. I don't think I can do that yet. but at least 1 character per scene.
My first Type 0 girl. So might as well start with my most favorite.
She is my favorite of all the Class 0 girls. Just like Lightning and Aranea, she is cool,reticent and seems cold, but really caring deep down inside.
Sice is my 2nd favorite after Seven. if it's not obvious already how I like my woman. well, eventually I'll rig and animate them all. maybe even Emina and the others...
but the thing about Emina and the other NPC models is,their model is bad. it'll look out of place. I'd have to redo her hair at least. and I don't have the motivation for it atm.
Terra /Tina is next. I'll try to make at least 3 animations of her as I'm also preparing for June swimsuit set. Added new girls I'd like to revisit to the list for June swimsuit set... included 2 more petite characters as well. 1 of them is new. you just have to guess who from the picture above. There is still possibility to add more characters to the list If I'm able. that's...bit too many...So, I'll release the set in 2 parts. part 1 on the first week of June, part 2 on the second week. then XV swimsuit set after. let's just hope I get enough sleep. it's good practice though.
That is all for this week!
Thanks for your kind donation and support as always m(_ _)m
Hello! how are you doing? I hope all's well. just here to deliver my weekly post as per usual. it's big sun lover this time. PIXIV MEGA
Miqo'te is really popular for obvious reason with Au Ra close second. ...and Y'shtola, she is on another level. even my friends who don't play 14 know who she is. She is almost in every cameo involving FF14. In Japanese dub, she called Magnai "boya" instead of "little sun"... which made thousand of her fans had a galactic orgasm. ...yep. she is that good of a mommy material it seems.
I got carried away again while animating this big sun lover. it was more fun than I expected. probably because I don't make her wear her attire. no headache on cloth sim and mesh clipping.
It's Edea and her "Matron" or "Mama-Sensei" version. The Dissidia NT version is basically just Ultimecia with different texture and outfit. at least that's what I thought at first. looking closely, her Edea head have this vein on her face. which has full geometry not just a normal map believe it or not. Nothing the smooth sculpt tool can't fix. her matron version is not final, but I'm happy with her current look for now. The only time we are shown her CGI matron version is during the game's end credits. other than that, we got to see her during a visit to the orphanage in the game. Without Ultimecia possessing her, she is a really kind sorceress...just another motherly figure in Final Fantasy series that I'd love to "do".
April's XV set is up next which is just unreleased Gentiana and Luna reanimated and mandatory Aranea pill. nothing special. There is a plan for Lenneth next month after them. And next week, my awaited game Eiyuden Chronicles is going to get released, so I'll really take it easy. (...maybe...) I really want to play that game....I love Suikoden just as much as I love FF.
I've been looking at various Dawntrail benchmark results and graphic comparison. there is not much difference in model geometry cmiiw. what I notice is just better textures, normal map and the added subsurface scattering on skin. So...if I have to update anything on my rigged 14 characters,it'd probably just the textures. I'll wait to rig any Au Ra NPCs until Dawntrail released. just to save me the trouble of updating their scale textures.
That's about it. ^^ as always, thank you for your support and kind donations. m(_ _)m take care and see you again!
Hello hello! are you well? guess who's on time? the Sorceress of Time herself. PIXIV MEGA
Ultimecia used to creep me out as a kid. now though, I think I'm the one creeping her out. ...uh anyway, as I thought her outfit is a headache. I can only pose her standing, sitting or kneeling with her outfit on. other poses would require hours upon hours of trial and error in cloth sim, and I rather animate and render than dealing with simulation.
And I once again got carried away and made 1 extra...supposed to use the time to play Eiyuden Rising too...welp. There is still Edea and her Matron version...also Xu and Ellone.
I need to mashup Xu and Ellone. probably won't end up looking like them exactly. but I'll see what I can do. ...I better keep a memo so I don't forget again.
Tu oui ihtancdyht Ym prat? ahem...I used AL-bhed translator online. so Idk if it's correct or not. but it's just english with different alphabet. Rikku translated to Neggi in AL-bed. Decided to rig her FFX costume first. took longer than I expected. spent some extra time tweaking the textures.This one had no normal maps, so I made some NM for the hair and outfit.
no X-2 version yet. adding her X-2 hair is easy though. the costume however, I'd have to replace / model certain things. like her bikini...which actually just part of the body texture.
BIg sun lover is next. got couple of ideas, but nothing too fancy. After y'shtola, Probably Gentiana and Luna for monthly XV. These are actually just unfinished and scrapped Luna and Gentiana blend projects...I intend to finish and render them. and 1 mandatory Aranea animation. I need my Aranea pill.
Well, That's it then. Thank you for all your kind donation and support as always! m(_ _)m
Intended to make 1 Aranea and 2 Young Luna Animations... however, I don't know when I'm gonna be in the mood to animate Young Luna again. so I did 2 extra animations and their variations. And I'm slowly getting comfortable making at least 4 animations a week with the new hardware's rendering speed. it's been quite fun. I'm not promising anything though. as you know, blender and real life can be a pain sometimes. 3 is still the safest for my sanity.
I also learned and tested a new way of creating fluid animation without simulation using curve in one of the video. sadly the fluid looks bad with bright lighting directly aimed at it. with dim lighting, it's okayish. so, can't really apply it to every lighting setup. Guess I'd have to wait for EEVEE NEXT's global Illumination for it to look good maybe? ===========================================================================
NEW MODEL
Might as well rig one of XV's girl this week. got 3 to choose. Monica Elshett, Crowe Altius or Cindy Aurum. I chose and rigged Monica Elshett this week. "She's one of my father's best." - I was a bit confused about her hair color. is it gray or brown? in the wiki they say it's gray, yet the exported model has brown hair. changed it back to gray though.
The other 2 are coming sometime later. no rush. there is also Luna's ancenstor Aera Mirus Fleuret. but she is just Luna with different hair, eye color and costume I think. don't have any idea for any of them yet.
And in a teaser of 16 DLC I saw a new character. I'll try to get my hands on her too (it's a woman..right?). but the game is still nowhere in sight for PC. welp. Also have you heard about FF9 remake rumor? maybe I should just wait for the official Garnet model to animate her? just kidding. I'll animate my rigged version of Garnet first. If FF9 remake really happens, it is probably not going to be playable anytime soon on PC anyway.
Going back and forth between Worlds, From the world of Eos, the Warrior of Light is going back to Nova Chrysalia. I want to animate Yeul next week. and maybe Ultimecia after. might be going easy the next 2 months because I wanted to make some time playing Eiyuden Rising and Chronicle.
That is it for this week! Thank you as always for your kind donation and support! m(_ _)m See you again!
Hello once again and welcome Warrior of Light, your serving of chicken and egg coming up! PIXIV P3DX MEGA
Who doesn't love a serving of chicken and egg especially a spicy one. Intended to only make 3 animations, but I got carried away and made another one. A lil bit tricky to fit them in frame together than I initially thought with Ameliance being so big paired with Alisaie that is petite. but that's FF14 for you.
Other than that, just couple of crashes here and there which I still don't know what's the cause. it's Blender. most of the crashes are unsolved mysteries. which I'm sure all frequent Blender users familiar with. Thankfully F14 models are light as feathers, opening the project file over and over again is super quick.
Speaking of light model, this week I rigged Ashelia B'nargin Dalmasca from 12. This is a PS2 model. so might look a bit weird and out of place with some lighting setup.
A young widow with bold attire, simply irresistible. Now that's she is here, Penelo is obviously also on my list. As I said, for Fran, I'll just use her 14 model because it's just better. I also have plan to rig FF14's Alma Lexentale / Alma Beoulve at some point.
we'll see which of the Ivalice women going to get rigged next. I just hope I don't forget about them.
Hmm I think I'll do the usual petite article next week. she is not that short, but she is baby faced. I also need my Aranea pill, so there is gonna be 1 Aranea animation to charge my battery next week along with Young Luna. This is somewhat of a trial for Monthly XV. If I feel comfortable with it, I'll continue the monthly XV plan with random XV girls + Aranea per month.
And that is it for this week.
Thank you for your support and donations as always! thank you very much! m(_ _)m
Hello again! I hope you are okay no matter where you are. Sorry for those who are sick of Aranea, but I don't think I'll stop animating her anytime soon. However,I have an idea of changing the "Monthly Aranea" to "Monthly XV". where I'd still animate 3 animations at the minimum with random XV characters per month. But, It's still going to feature Aranea in at least one of the animations (i need my pills). So it'll be like 1 Aranea and 2 random XV girls animations at the very least every month. How does that sound? seems like a good excuse to finally animate Cindy or Monica too (or even young Luna?).
I miss her wearing lingerie and glasses, so it's just that simple theme this time. let me know what's your thought about Monthly XV. I feel like I'm still gonna do it though.
It's finally here! it's time for the first component upgrade for my PC. and it's all thanks to your support m(_ _)m
Like I said in my first Hardware report, I'm aiming to get at least a dual fan RTX 4070 for rendering purposes. Especially with the upcoming new Blender render engine "EEVEE NEXT" around the corner. Here it is , RTX 4070 SUPER : According to many Blender benchmarks, 4070 is still the best for 3D workflow in "value" compared to it's AMD equivalent apparently.. - Credit Source : @ContradictionDesign at Youtube. -
This is the cheapest 4070 SUPER and it costs around $630 (usd) over here while the other brands go as high as $700 or more. The alternative to this would be a used RTX 3090. A used 3090 is around the same price over here with bigger VRAM. But I couldn't tell if the 3090s have been abused for mining or not. most of them has void warranty too (and it's power hungry).
For my own benchmark and comparison, I rendered the previous Santa Bikini Sophia and Neon at 4K. Because these two together is the heaviest render of all time for my PC. (SoP models are heavier than XV's and FF7R's believe it or not. especially the hair). own benchmark My GTX 1080 rendered the 1st frame in 2 minutes, while the new 4070 SUPER rendered the 1st frame in just 30 seconds. both cards using EEVEE as the render engine.
Might not seem like a lot, but for every video , I have to render around 930 images (that's 30 seconds long video). it's a huge time saver. especially if I noticed things that I have to fix after I'm done with rendering. Which means I have to render all 930 images again. size comparison
As for my old GTX 1080, I'm not going to sell it. it's going back in the box. It has served me well in the past 8 years, and it's still useful as a back up GPU if something bad happens to the 4070. Thank you for everything! (you've done well GTX 1080, Thank you for your hard work.)
Now that my GPU is good for at least 2 or 3 years, it's time to lock my sight on a brand new CPU and RAM. I'm planning to upgrade my DDR4 RAM first from 2x8 (16gb) to 2X32 (64GB) before I migrate to a new CPU and motherboard. For CPU, since I'm still going to use DDR4, My aim is set on i7 12700, i5 13600 or i7 13700 for their single core performance in Blender.
I'm excited to use the new card for rendering and it wouldn't be possible without your kind support and donations. Once again I must say :
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! m(_ _)m
1st upgrade achieved I'll update you when It's time to finally upgrade my next component too!
Since FF7R rebirth is knocking at everyone's door, might as well rig someone from 7. it's Jessie's mom. or Mrs Rasberry. With her rigged, I think the only mom character left from 7Remake is Elmyra Gainsborough. ...There is also character like Madam M, Scarlet and Kyrie Canaan, but it feels like Scarlet is everywhere already, and someone already rigged Madam M. I guess It's Kyrie Canaan next time? She is just a minor character and the only thing I know, is that Mrs Rasberry here like to give people pizza apparently. what kind of pizza is Midgar special anyway? why the boys like it so much? ....beside her, I also fixed my old Ifalna and Claudia rig. I might animate them together in the future but idk when. Mrs Rasberry is coming first before them though, and it's still a long way from now. And sadly I won't be able to play the new rebirth until it's on PC, but FF7 is big, we might see some models leak here and there. I'd animate the side characters like usual however.
It's Saryu. the usual drill for her just like any petite characters. After Saryu, I want to animate FFX Yuna. but maybe just X yuna and not X-2. I'll wait until I rig all three X-2 girls for that.
That is all! As alwaays thanks for your kind support and donation. really, thank you! m(_ _)m See you next week!
