Done a lot of work on his neck, and a little on his mouth and hands.

Added a throat and teeth, as well as sculpting all the scales running down the back of this guys neck, that took a long time, but it looks nice.

The speed is picking up, now that I am getting used to making all the scales, I just have to do the scales running down his spine, and the smaller ones all over his legs.

Then I will need to...

Finally on to the real details! Next few days are going to be busy, but fun!

So, this last week, life has been busy, I did not even realise how much time has gone by, and things are not going as fast with the new character as I would like.

But I am going to change that!

On the bright side, I am now adding the tiny details, so the dragon is going to start looking real nice, real soon!

I have not been han...

Been spending the afternoon watching a pro tutorial!

And the stuff he makes looks a bit nicer then mine, so my time is not wasted!

A link to the tutorial for anybody who is wondering.

Finally getting myself a gnomon workshop sub tommorow!

This dragon is in the zbrush stage now, and I am working in all the little muscle details, also doing a heap of work on his feet. (And his wings!)

Does not look like much, but I have attached all the separate peaces, and merged them into one mesh.

Head, neck, body, tail, legs, fingers and toes. A bit of work, but its worth it. Also p...

Almost done with the basic concept! (Also life has been getting in the way.)

Been kept a little busy, bet I have managed to keep working, Anyway!

I'm really liking the direction my character is going in, I just need to get the wings right, then I can start the real work.

Making this guy look amazing.

I have a pro tutorial on scales and dragons in zbrush. Also, a good one for proper rigging.

The ne...

Finally got some time to work on this guy some more!

I know he does not look like much yet, but trust the process, the beginning forms are really important. If I make a mistake here, it can be really hard to fix down the line.

So I have to take a lot of care, and be really sure I am happy with the general shape, before I go mad in zbrush, turning this guy into a proper dragon.

Sounds Are done! (Will post the finish sounds tomorrow.)

Just need to go about making the filesize smaller. 

I would like some feed back on the sounds, as there is still time to make changes if something is really no good.

If you like, you can see the animation with the sounds I have added so far, and tell me what you think, Its not too late to make changes, there is still a bit to do, and more sounds to add.

Just a quick post about sounds and polls!

Ok, so first things first. I will post a wip of the sound version of "cade blows a dragon" So you guys can have a listen, and tell me what you think. Good or bad.

Eyeballing some expensive tutorials! (Bits o news)

Just a post to wrap up the month!

The sounds for the cade blows a dragon animation are coming along nicely. I'll post a preview tomorrow when I have the chance.

So far it looks like the voting polls will be here to stay. (Yay!)

And it also looks like I will get to rework my dragon character, so in order to get the most out of t...

Should I upgrade my dragon model, before I make another animation with him in it.

Ok, so the issue I have is, I think my dragon character looks too outdated next to all the new models and characters.

A turd in a sea of gold if you will. :3

But I'm not sure others feel the same.

So what I am asking is, should I remodel the dragon, before I make the second part of the commission animation? 

(The ani...

Not yet sure what I will be doing next month! (But I will have a poll out before the month ends!)

Depends, I still have to do the second half of the commission animation, but we might take a break to update one of my older characters.

(Some of them really need updates.)

But I was toying with the idea of doing a full rework of my dragon character, for the second half of the animation. (a dragon fucks cede 'anal')

Let me know...

Dragon on gryphon animation (With sounds added!) Is up!

Cade Blows a Dragon Animation is up! (But the sounds for it are still coming.)

I finally managed to upload the animation onto some of the furry websites.

Sounds are almost ready! And so Is the rendered animation!

So, the sounds for the gryphon x dragon animation, so close to done.

I need to make a nice sound for the dragon spilling his seed into the gryphon, and I may also rework the know sounds, to see if I can make it sound better.

(I also need to update the patreon end card on the animation ending.)

I have posted an updated version o...

Sound animation preview! (Also an apology!)

First the apology! I posted two poll's here not to long ago, but I did not realise I had set them to work for all patrons, did not mean to rip of the folks in the voting teir.

I'm sorry about that! 

I will think of more fun polls to put up, to help make up for the mistake.

Dragons rides gryphon is the first animation to get full sound. And It will be a challenge.

I have to make the sounds for two large creatures, as well as the usual sex sounds and some background stuff.

This will be interesting, but hopefully I can pull it off.

Odd, idea, do you think I should try and make the gryphon speak?

Might not work out, but it could be interesting, to hear his complaints along with his pain. An...

Its decided, I will start making sounds! Woooo!

I really enjoy adding sounds to stuff it turns out!

So here are some animations I think I can do nice sounds for!

Please pick your fave, and I'll try making sounds for it!

When these fluid sims are ready, I will have a lot of free time!

At least a few days of thumb twiddling.

So what should I do with it?

I can start working on sound for an animation that I have already made. (Maybe do the full gryphon vs kenku animation?)

OR

I can start on a new character, and see if people like it. (Maybe make a new dragon base mesh?)

At the currant rate, the render will take 22 days. That's no good! (If it does not crash, it will probably be longer)

I feel this is just to long, and I should have fixed this sooner.

The fix is simple, I will render at 60% of the full size. This will make the render much faster.

Then it should take about 5 days. (If it does not crash during, it will probably be a week.)

So I have gone ahead and made the change. But I want to know what you thi...

Frame 1321 of 8360!

Had some slow down over the weekend. But I am still rendering! Thanks to the new computer and blender optix integration.

Downside is, even though the render is quick, it tends to crash. So I really have to babysit it.

(CUDA Render is stable, but takes 25 mins a frame compared to optix 4 mins. So running CUDA render over the weekend w...

Frame 811 of 8360!

The rendering will take a while, but it is moving along at least! 

I have had a few issues with crashing during renders, but I have time to babysit the program, and see it though.

Due to the new gpu, I am rendering this animation in full rez! (1080p I think!)

I have always had to run renders at 50% or 60% of the full rez, ...

Renders are under way!

I have also posted an older preview of the animation to my google drive. 

(Its called NewAnimationPreview.)

I think I am happy with the animation! Almost time to render!

Just want to add the fluid sims on the end of the animation, and set up a nicer background!

As you can see in the post image, I have already started work on the nicer background, just need to add some grass, and maybe rocks.

Once that is done, we are good to go! Should not take very long.

I have also been playing around with mo...

Finally working on the ending of the oral part of the animation! (I am also in a position to get the updated version of substance painter!)

Been working away at this, whenever I have the time.

Now I am finally on the home stretch! With luck, I will be rendering before the month ends.

And with the new graphics card cade got me, I will be able to render it out much faster then before, it should take a few days at most!

Also Important! I am planning on buyi...

Work is slowing over easter, but I am trying to work in secret!

I imagine if you see this on a monitor from a distance, you would not know what is happening, maybe.

Anyway, I am still working on the animation, I have not stopped. Hopefully after the weekend, I can really finish this thing off, then start some renders.

The currant plan is to render and post part of the oral as a preview when it is...
