Weekly WIP #90

    Someone sent Bloo a special setup to use on the redhead he knows as well. How nice of that person. Two versions: one with full AO (ambient occlusion) and one with just AO Outline. Ambient Occlusion deals with the use of shadows.

    As I've said before about AO, some models/maps simply do not work with it at all, so it's a very hit/miss when it gets used. Gwen Tennyson doesn't like any while Frankie was fine with all. That mirror floor map doesn't like any either while a rope model I have does alright without the outline style. Outline is sometimes very useful, like in the second picture/version of Frankie here.

    I think AO Outline makes it look more like a cartoon since they're 3D models based on a 2D creation. Sort of more correct to the source, but that's why I did the 2 versions; in case you all like a different way a bit more. Both will be released right after Christmas 2024 and since the 25th is my animation "New Year", Frankie, which is a 60 second loop, is the first animation released for 2025 (Supporter+ Tiers), followed by a small free project. So, 3 releases this month.

    4 releases, really, since the Year 3 video will be the last this month. Year 3 being the recap compilation video of all/most of what I've made this year, spanning from one Christmas to another. Gives me an interesting way of showcasing all I've done thus far, shows small previews of higher tier projects lower tier subscribers might not have seen anything of, and just a fun way of seeing how I might have progressed as time passes.
