Encounter 2 - Work in Progress (1080p60FPS)

Encounter 2 - Work in Progress (1080p60FPS)

Aaaaand it’s here! A preview at the new animation, at long last! I took a couple of extra days to make some music for it and also do a bit of color grading. My reasoning was that if it’s out, it’s out, and I frankly didn’t want folks to see this in such a rough state.

Soon!

Soon!

Compositing for all scenes is done and I started with the sound design today! There are still some missing voice samples I need to get recorded, but in case they'll take too long, then I'll just release it as it is. There will be a lot of things that are still incomplete anyway. I'm quite anxious about putting this out, as I've never actually re...

Still rendering

Still rendering

Welp! Rendering of the preview version is still ongoing with there being 5 scenes left to go. Luckily 4 of them are fairly short and shouldn't give me any real headaches, so I'm somewhat confident that rendering shouldn't take more than an additional week, fingers crossed. 

I've already done the processing for most of the rendered mat...

Render Update (Not mobile friendly)

Rendering of Encounter 2 is still ongoing, but phew... saying it's been a bumpy road would be quite of an understatement, as the times I had to re-render certain frequences have been numerous. By now I've meant to be quite a bit further with everything, but there's been one particularly long sequence that's given me a number of headaches, which ...

Big Gulpe - Polished playblast

Here's a more polished version of the last playblast with improvements to the overall motion, as well as some additional animation that simulates the rolling of Zoe's belly muscles. I'm quite happy with how it turned out, ohoho~

I sadly didn't have the time to render this out with the preview fur, as currently both my computers are renderi...

Pheeeeeeeew! The recent two weeks have been a tough grind, but I managed to finalize almost three new scenes for a tiny sacrifice to my social life! The most recent scene you're seeing here is still heavily work in progress, but I'm certain that at my current pace I'll have it polished and finalized soon! This is by the way going to be the final...

Hey guys! Here's a mini-update on the progress! First off, rendering is progressing quite well! I've spent the recent days polishing, tweaking, and optimizing the main scene, which is now being rendered. The ray traced background layer already finished a few days prior, means I was able to to put together a fresh preview! Note that it still isn'...

Aaaaaand here's a slightly extended version of the previous playblast! Lighting has been slighly improved but is still a bit so so. I'll have to tweak it that for the final render later down the line!

Phew, I'm making some decent progress, but there's still a decent amount of scenes to go! At least rendering has advanced quite nicely, with...

Encounter 2 - Early Preview (Public)

Encounter 2 - Early Preview (Public)

With my animations continuously increasing in scope, runtime, and production time, it seemed like a good idea to do a public preview at some point, as throughout the last weeks I've received a considerable amount of messages asking me if I still do animations. Here's hoping that this preview will answer some of these burning questions and give a...

Handheld Slurp - Rough Playblast (Not mobile friendly)

Welp, here's a new playblast that continues the rather affectionate mawplay. I must admit I'm not quite happy with this yet, as there's still a ton of clipping, while the lighting lacks a bit of contrast and definition. I'll probably adjust the lighting on a per-shot basis, which is something I've already done in the last animation. In addition ...

Here's an extended version of the previous playblast, including polished animation, fur, and some tweaked lighting!

The sequence you're seeing is almost done, but there's still a bit to animate. In the meantime I...

Apologies for the dull lighting, will make sure to properly adjust it for every scene. Phew, we've finally reached the 3rd person nommy scenes, through which most of the dialogue will continue.

I might actually polish up this lengthy scene first in the upcoming week, before advancing with the mawplay part. This way I could already start rendering t...

Next to the much improved reflections, lighting, and materials, the new renderer actually comes with some new functions, namely animated textures, which is a ...

Big Sloshy Tummy - Alternative Lighting (Scrapped)

Here's a new mini animation loop that shows Zoe with a rather squishy tummy! Since the previous tummy animations were always a little over-animated, I decided to give this a more leisure pace.
