Character Suggestions
Just a couple more animations to go and we're through everything from the two WIP sets.I have a ton of ideas that I want to try next, so I definitely don't need suggestions, but it's always interesting to know what you guys would like to see most.I'm mainly interested in characters, but you can include positions / scenarios as well.You can choose characters I haven't used yet (provided there is a decent model available), or on...
Animation - Rey (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Skins: Dirty // Sweaty // ShavedLike the other Rey animation, this started off as practice before I returned from the break. It had a bunch of issues, to the point that I shelved it for a long time, but I managed to fix it up a lot compared to how it was originally.The animation itself is still rather plain, but I didn't want to redo what I already had. I can make another version of this scenario with more "energy" l...
Animation - Quiet (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Skin & Clothing: No Eye Pattern // Topless // No Eye Pattern & ToplessI decided to try a different angle than usual, based on a reference that I thought was interesting.Sort of messed up the timing of the animation, similar to the last one. Improved it slightly, but it still doesn't flow as well as it should. This should be the last one with such flaws.
Animation - Catwoman (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Angle: Top ViewI tried to fix this one as much as possible, but it still has issues.I wanted a better ripped suit effect, for example. The animation also turned out stiffer than intended. Plus some clipping issues which hopefully aren't too noticeable.Anyway, I finally decided it was time to just release this and get on to the next thing.Update: Fixed a small clipping issue. (Link is updated with the new version.) Added an a...
Animation - Cassie Cage (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Outfit: Tactical GearThere are a lot of outfit options for Cassie, but most of them either didn't really fit the scene, or had clipping issues in this position. I'll see if I can make more use of them whenever I use her again.Also this model has mismatched eye rotation, which apparently originates from the game itself and can't be fixed. (Just in case you noticed and were wondering why they look a bit off.)Thanks to ...
WIP Set #2
Here are some possible upcoming animations for July. (Plus the remaining two from the last set.)I've had a lot of trouble with the Rey one, in particular the lighting. I was just going to post it as it was, even though I really wasn't happy with it, but now I'm in the process of trying to fix it up a bit. It might not be ideal but should at least be better than it was.The Quiet one could also use some polishing, but the angle turned o...
Animation - Rey (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Lighting: MoonlightThis was the first thing I tried animating after the break, so it's probably the weakest of the new works.I know what needs improving, at least, so I'll try to make the next animation like this significantly better.
Animation - Poison Ivy (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Angle: Back ViewI wanted to do an alternate angle for this, but had trouble finding one that worked well. I thought the view from behind looked okay even though it's not focused on the main point of the animation. Also, the back strands of hair don't rotate correctly on this model, that's why they're stuck in place.Alternate angles can be tricky because the scenebuild, posing, and lighting sometimes require signi...
Return
Alright, it's finally time to resume. New animations starting later this week.Here's some stuff I want to make note of first. Billing No Longer PausedBilling will resume July 1st, so you'll have to decide if you want to remain a patron before then. I appreciate those who have stuck around all this time, but I'll also understand if you want to wait and see how things go before continuing your support. Especially because of the next...
Update & Feedback
Hey there. I realized it's been over two months since the last update. Well, it's taken a lot longer than expected to get back up and running, but we're getting closer. Just a few more things I want to sort out first.In the meantime, let me know if you have feedback on anything I can improve or fix.I already know I have a lot of improvements to make on my animations, so I'm talking more about technical stuff. File size, how the ar...
WIP Set
Here's a preview of some of the stuff I've been working on lately. Not much animation done on them yet, as I'm mainly focused on setting up scenes for now.These are fairly similar to what I've done before (pose/camera angles), so they were helpful to get back into practice. But I still want to experiment with more ways of doing things.However right now my opportunities to work on things are limited, once again. I'll keep makin...
An Update, Finally
Hey there. I thought it was about time I posted some sort of update, since it's been a while.Mainly I wanted to let you all know that I'm still planning on coming back! (I'm sure some of you were wondering about that by now.)I took a long break from SFM, but I've finally started getting into practice again recently. I'm just taking my time for now, while I try out different things and work on making modest improvements. So it&...
Some Animations + Status Update
Countess HJ: DownloadJuli POV: DownloadMax & Chloe: DownloadThe Countess animation is not the one I was originally working on, but I wanted to at least make use of the scene, so I did something simple with it.Important Update:Some things have changed lately and I'm not able to consistently work on stuff right now. I'll be pausing billing for November and keeping it paused until I can get back on a regular schedule.I'm not sure exactly...
Update
Hey, just a quick update to let you know that new stuff will be delayed for a while longer.I've had a lot of trouble finishing the Countess animation, to the point that I've decided to put it on hold for now. I don't like leaving it unfinished after the amount of time I've put into it, but I'm too frustrated with it to work on it any more at the moment.Now I'm behind schedule with having new content to post, and it will st...
WIP Update - Countess
Got a bit ahead of myself posting the last WIP, as I ended up reworking a lot of it and scrapping the intro I had planned. It's still going to take a bit longer, since it's requiring some extra finesse compared to usual. I'll try to pick up the pace on the next animations.Also a big thanks once again to everyone for the continued support. All patrons are appreciated, but those who stick around for multiple months are really awesome.
WIP - Countess
I've been thinking of ideas for around Halloween, even though it's still a month away.Countess seemed like an appropriate choice. I've used her before but didn't have as many patrons back then, so hopefully most of you like her.This is basically just a teaser, since I've only just begun. For now you'll have to use your imagination for what's going to happen.Might end up doing other stuff before this is finished. I'...
Animation - Samantha Giddings (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Outfits: Skirt & Leggings // Yoga Outfit
WIP - Samantha
Until Dawn characters were suggested, so I'm giving Sam a try.It's a shame more characters from that game were never ported over to be used. Ashley is the only other one available, but her model doesn't seem very well done.
Animation - Juli Kidman (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Outfit: Glove OnI wasn't happy with the original Juli animation, so I made a second version.Simplified the hand movement and kept it consistent. Also left it at 6 seconds instead of 12, a shorter loop but maybe a less noticeable one. The idea was to make it more watchable on a loop, at least.It could still be a lot better, but this was mainly to try out a slightly different approach to animating this type of thing.Anyway, th...
Animation - Liara T'Soni (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Camera: Closer ViewFelt like doing something simple with Liara. I'll likely do more with her sooner or later, and maybe try some of the other Mass Effect ladies as well.
Animation - Juli Kidman (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Outfit: Glove OnNotes:I tried to add some extra variety to the animation, but that may not have been the best choice.I think for looping hand animations it's probably better to keep a consistent motion and just focus on the overall scene, rather than worry about including varied hand movement/speed. That would probably make for a better viewing experience, and also take less time to complete.I'll try a different approach...
WIP - Juli Kidman
This one has been somewhat slow to progress. I tried some different poses, backgrounds, and lighting but finally settled on this, at least for now.I've been meaning to play The Evil Within games to get a better idea of what to do with Juli (and for fun, of course) but I haven't gotten around to it yet. Still wanted to use her, so I'll start out with something simple.
Animation - Y'shtola (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Outfits: No Boots // UnderwearNotes:As usual there are things I'd like to improve on, which I'll keep in mind for the future.Also, I didn't animate her tail because I thought it might be too distracting.
WIP - Y'shtola
It's a new month, so a big thank you to everyone for the continued support!Trying out a character that was suggested, Y'shtola from FFXIV.I'm still open to more character suggestions by the way, so you can message me or reply to this post with who you'd most like to see. It can be characters I haven't used yet, or ones I have that you'd like more of.No guarantees when or if they'll happen, but it's useful info to k...
Animation - Triple Pack (1080p)
Quiet Missionary (Sound): Download // No Male VoiceJill Valentine, Leon Kennedy: DownloadAda Wong, Leon Kennedy: DownloadNotes:I managed to get all of these done, so I figured I'd post them all together.I went through a bunch of sound effects to add to the Quiet animation, but couldn't find anything that worked well for the body or bed noises. Maybe I'm too picky. Anyway, I'll try to do a better job whenever I add sound from now o...
Poll Result
Thanks for voting in the poll! It's still open for those who haven't voted yet, but the result is fairly clear as it is.I thought to do it because none of the three animations I'm working on at the moment are POV, and I wondered if that would be disappointing for those who prefer it.All three should be done this coming week, although I don't think they're exactly my best work. Well, I'm terrible at judging my own work, so ...
Content Poll
Hey everyone.I'm working on a few different animations right now, hopefully at least a couple of them will be ready sometime next week. I'll try to get as much work done over the weekend as possible, at least.By the way, sometimes I won't post WIP previews beforehand. If there aren't any for a while that doesn't mean something isn't being worked on, or close to being finished.In the meantime, I was wondering what type of a...
Animation - Lara Croft (1080p)
DownloadAlternate Skin: DirtyAlternate Lighting: DaytimeNotes:A fairly simple animation, but I got some scenebuilding stuff sorted out in the process of making this which should be useful in the future.I'll do more with Lara at some point. I think I can do something better with her still.
WIP - Lara Croft
I've been really indecisive with this one. Haven't found the right environment to use yet, so I just threw her in prison for now. Maybe I'll just go with this, but ideally I'd like to use a more Tomb Raider style background. Similar to the audio situation, I really need to work on organizing my map/prop/scenebuild resources.
Animation - Chloe Price, Max Caulfield (1080p) (Sound)
DownloadAlternate Skin: SweatyAlternate Scenario: With RachelNotes:I didn't quite achieve the level of detail and polish I hoped to (the alternate version with Rachel Amber in particular is quite basic), but I felt it was time to consider this finished and move on.At a certain point I find it's better to keep potential improvements in mind for future animations rather than spending a lot of extra time trying to adjust what's already b...
