Christmas 2023 Release
- This is usually where I would comment on things I dislike about my release, but instead I'll just say it's not what I'd hoped and leave it at that.
- Monday, the 25th, I'll release the other side of Do Not Open.
- The New Year animation will be released on New Year's Eve.
- Hope you all have a nice weekend and a good Christmas.

Weekly WIP #57
- Christmas 2023 (Release Date Christmas Day)
- Misc.
- Christmas 2023
Fully rendered and compiled into video, now waiting for the 25th for release.
Do I like it? Not really. It never came out as well as I wanted, though it isn't as bad as I was seeing either. Those who have seen it already (people at my house, certain friends, etc.) like it just fine though. It just strikes me as something I would have made a year or so ago; not something now. All the same I hope you all like it well enough when it's released.
- Misc.
The week has mostly been rendering Christmas 2023 with some side things worked on. Still finding other projects to get fixed to a releasable state. Ángel was released. The Dynasty Warriors one is another to get ready soon. Some I might just let die, since they never went very far anyways. Anyone recall that Detroit: Become Human store window thing? Yeah, that would be one of them.
Sancus Program 2, slated for the coming year, is most likely going to be the first project I get going fully. I've wanted to do that one for a while now, and I'm sure it's a wanted thing as well. It's Miranda Lawson after all. For warning though: it will be a Tier 1($3)+ Subscriber only release, as will several projects coming up.
Next Weekly will most likely be short as well, unless I decide to spoil surprises and show previews on projects. I do miss how I was posting things like with Shiala or Ivy. Surprises are nice and fun, but eh. Info is better, right?

Rendering is still going, but it's not coming out as smooth an animation as I'd hoped. As I was saying to the Discord people, it's not horrid but it's not all that great. So much going on in SFM caused the playback to lag pretty hard, making it difficult to see how the changes to keyframes were or were not affecting it. Essentially, I guess I've overloaded SFM. I should have split it into sections, which would have been the smarter way really. Always learning though. If it was a sub only animation I'd be annoyed, but it's a Holiday Freebie. To be honest I've focused too much on it already, but as I said it's not horrid, it's just not, like, Hostile Takeover quality. The pic below is a frame from Ayane's section, hence the focus on her.
- Misc.
Always practicing things. I probably have a dozen little practice animations. Helps to figure out what things won't work. Also had a few really good ideas for projects this week. Too many ideas overall. It's making it hard to stick to one, but I'm gonna start keeping those unspoken until they start to actually become something. Looking back, I see I have several projects that I've advertised, and they've stalled. Sorry about that. I intend to pick them back up. Some will be worked on a lot more, others finished enough to release as is. Still not sure what the next Sub only release will be.

Weekly WIP #51
Halloween Costume Contest- Marie Rose (Dead or Alive)
- I really wanna get something made for Halloween. I had a fun/funny idea and since Hermione was going to take too long, Marie Rose is stepping up for a short animation. She enters a Heat Inc. Halloween Costume Contest, not realizing who/what/how Heat Inc. tends to be. The ad said, 'free candy and a special prize', so she showed up.
- There are two segments to this, even though it's short. The 'Contest' bit, with a preview shown below, and the 'Winner' bit, which will be released on Halloween. I really liked this section. I've animated her movements with more realistic appeal then anything before I think. Some is really subtle though, but overall it creates a more lifelike motion.
- I was getting a huge piece worked out yesterday on a texture when I got distracted and instead of closing a tab in Gimp, I closed Gimp, not realizing; and not saving. Was rather annoying. This was also the character who's rig decided to just not work. Same character, different model though. This one works, but I had to start over after having set her up. Setbacks. I hate them. It's got a little more to go, but I'm sure it'll be ready on time.

Christmas 2023 - Character Reveal WIP
- Christmas 2023, featuring 17 of the girls from Dead or Alive. It's the only 'universe' that I have that many character models from. LoL or Overwatch might have tons, but I don't care for either and not even sure how many models are around for SFM of either. At any rate, these work fine. With so many different ones, I'm sure nearly everyone can find a girl in the lineup they like. I don't play the games and until working on this couldn't name more than maybe 5 of them. I personally have 6 I like, with 2 tied for favorite.
- From top left across, then down each row there are Helena, Hitomi, Kokoro, Lisa, Paichan, Rachel, Christie, Momiji, Marie Rose in the center, then the bottom half is Kasumi, Sayuri, Tamaki, Leifang, Nyotengu, Mila, Ayane and Tina.
- Don't let the amount of girls fool you though. They're not all getting a lot of focus. It's going to be very much divided around and several grouping shots. The only one that's 'special' is Marie Rose. She's on her own style of dais for it, and that was only because she was so small compared to the rest I felt she needed it. Otherwise she might be lost in the crowd.
- The girls are split into 'musical categories'; Reds, Greens, and Whites. (Color of Christmas Present Platforms to be shown soonish). Each category will have their respective machine moving to the specific section the song has for it. Example: White are the 'drums', so any of the parts you might find yourself tapping a foot too instinctively, the White group would be bounced.
- I'm still not sure exactly how to represent them all during the video though. I'm debating on two main ways, though I might think of another along the way. Doesn't affect it til it comes time to compile the video.
- #1 Either changing the camera constantly from one to the next, but that might feel a little too spastic or rapid. You'd get a better view of a girl, but not as long, if that makes any sense.
- #2 Very much the way this reveal picture is. Multi-screen it, though probably not all 17 shown at once. I like that idea more, and it would fit more with the 'music video' style, so it's probably the way. Then you can see the girl you prefer, and just watch her more, or rewatch to see the others. Or get eye strain trying to see them all at once.
- So yeah, Dead or Alive. No Gwen Tennyson. Hopefully you all like the choice of universe. I just grabbed all the girls I had for it. Sayuri, Tamaki and Marie Rose are slightly different than the others for rigging. All are by LordAardvark.
