I have an ok model of Rosalina from Super Mario Brothers and messed around with it. It's not some complex animation; very simple even, but I figured I'd toss it out anyways just cause. It's a crude animation, mostly made for fun and something to do one night when I was simi drunk. Might have taken me 20 minutes to make in total. Have fun all the same.

    Some poster renders from the Touhou Project thing (Blue hair and Green hair girl). Not really sure what the original concept for it was. I found this while clearing out files and figured I could make it into something. I have it all mapped out, I think, for angles/changes. Just need to fix the animations for each and sort some sound. Pretty much the lighting you see in the pics is the way it'll be lit. I gave it better lights then SFM Stage Map default, but honestly a lot of what makes them interesting looking (that almost drawn cartoon style) gets lost in it, so I'm keeping it how it is.

    I've started up, very early and roughly sorted, an animation with Sherry Birkin from Resident Evil. Like all of @SourceModelMaker's models, she's great. I can even use Grace Ashcroft clothing pieces on her. (Underwear items, not like her known outfits.)
    So far, I'm really liking how it's going. I don't wanna show too much though incase things go awry. Trying not to hype things too much before they for certain will be a thing. The pic of her below is the preview pic by SourceModelMaker, not my own.

    Lastly, not sure if I'd mention it already other than the Discord, Halloween 2026 - Sadako and Christmas 2026 - Marie Rose are render ready. Might even do that soon to get it out of the way. Still free for those, if anyone was thinking otherwise. Holiday stuff will always be free. That pretty much clears up what would normally occupy the rest of the year. I do kinda wanna try to poke some more Halloween things maybe, if only some pics; maybe a looped thing like that Connie Taylor in the closet.

    So I took some time off this week, kinda. I still made a new banner for things. It was time for it. Lae'zel from Baldur's Gate 3, Chloe Price from Life is Strange and Barbara Gordon from DC Batman. I like the 3 girl combos and chose 3 that again already had projects released with them. Took longer to make this new one, since the Black Cat stalled. Now that it's released, voila. So below are the various renders. Not sure if Lae'zel is pissed or intrigued. Maybe both.

    The Touhou Project continued animation is gonna take a little bit to sort how to continue it. It was a practice piece and pretty old now, so I'm having to basically reverse engineer it to see how I have the bones locked, rigged, etc. before I can continue it onward. I'll get it though.

    I wanna do these like, verses animations. Crossing the Line with Samara and Morinth from Mass Effect were meant to do this tug-o-war style, but they just didn't animate well, but the concept is still fun. Some Discord posts recently had some verses style pictures, so the interest is once again high. I have a few combos in mind to use; obvious ones really. Miranda Lawson vs Jack from Mass Effect, as an example. Any combo of Dead or Alive would work too. Anyone have combos they'd find fun? Feel free to comment them.

    Hope you all like the new banner.

    So, the poll results on the latest upped graphic settings are finished and it looks like I'll be saving the superous colossalistic massively big render settings just for the really good shit, cause yeah, that took way to long to render Black Cat Cafe. What projects fall under that category? Ones I think deserve that kind of extra bump and have the time to render for it.

    So I spent this week recouping from the "Render Blues" and sorting out things. Tossed several saves that were never going to go anywhere or never started to begin with. (I had several named saves that had nothing more than the girl to be used standing in the spawn pose. That's it.) Renamed a lot of saves for better organization. Stuff like that.

    Came across a Touhou Project practice animation that's nice. I like it a lot. They animate really well and I've wanted to use them again, so I'm going to continue on with it and make it a full thing. (Full as in a release, not necessarily a 10+ minute animation.) Same two girls as a previous one, who's names are uh....Yamashiro Takane and Kawashiro Nitori. I've no idea which is which; I know nothing about that game. Henceforth to be referred to by hair color. Or eye color since I just noticed it's the same as the hair.

    Anyways.

    In other news, Halloween 2026 might not get the second song added to it. It's a full length animation as is. Discord stream reactions would suggest it's a really good animation. It'll depend on how things progress from now til time to get rendering.

    Sancus 3 is already on pause. It started out so shitty I lost all drive to go go with it. I've been sorting a different introduction to the OC Zjai, since I really wanted her out and about sooner.

    Lastly, Christmas 2026 is moving a long nicely. Marie Rose is having fun. I think. Probably not.

    - Another small animation I did this week during the 'off time' working on things like Sancus 2. I admit I know next to nothing about the Touhou things. So maybe this is how they refill their magic? Maybe it's some kinda 'limbo' they end up in when defeated? (I think I read once most of them are the bosses you fight, but as I said, I know nothing.) Maybe that's an Oni, maybe not? (I know red/blue is traditional, but both clashed with either her hair or shirt.)

    - At any rate, I liked the bright coloring and like most small animations it was good practice for the bigger/better things.

    Enjoy
