Back with a progress update, and it’s a big one because it’s the LAST one. Yes, you heard that right. I can hardly believe it, but the end (of the project) is near. The progress of the animation has been (and still is) more chaotic than expected towards the end, but before diving into the details, here are those final cuts:🔺 Adam, slow down, you’ll break the android... 🥵
--🔺 Nevermind, she loves it~ 😇
There are a lot of different paces and mouth/eye variations for this one, which you’ll discover in the full video.
--🔺 This one isn’t completely finished yet, but I wanted to include it in this final batch of cuts. It’s missing some shades, shadows, and details, but the bulk of it is here. This cut has been the most time-consuming of all. So much time spent for just 2 seconds, welcome to the world of animation!
These last few weeks have not been easy. I’ve come dangerously close to burnout and had to slow down a bit. I hoped to finish the project at the beginning of August, but it will be more like mid-August. Thank you for your patience. Really.🙏
As you know, I’ve been working with assistants on this second part of the 2B project to increase quality and production speed. While that has generally been the case, finding reliable assistants (work quality, availability, response time, speed) has been more challenging than I anticipated. I’ve had to delay Patreon posts and push back deadlines multiple times to get the work done. Now, most cuts are finished, except for the fluids. I am aware that both you and I greatly appreciate these in this type of animation.💦 However, I’ve lost contact with the person responsible for this part, so I’ll have to do it myself. Hence the project end date delay.
To summarize:
Almost all the scenes are drawn and colored.
I have received the voices and should be able to do all the lip syncs this coming week.
The liquid effects will be done by me once the scenes and lip syncs are completed.
The voice and SFX integration will follow, along with the final editing.
And all this needs to be done in the next 20 days, as my summer break is scheduled for the 21st. It’s going to be a busy 20 days 😅
Tier 3 members will receive, in addition to the video, a detailed post explaining the animation creation process from start to finish. I’ll try to make a comprehensive post where you can get some source files, preliminary images, and step-by-step explanations. I’ll aim to complete it before I leave, but it might only be finished after my break, in early September (two weeks after my departure).
And even though you’ve had several progress posts each month (many gifs), I would have liked to provide even more spicy content. 🌶️
The next projects (after my return) will be much shorter, and I’ll be more present on Patreon and Twitter. A big project like this requires a lot of time, energy, and allows for a very few posts on social networks, since I wanted most of the content to be exclusive for you, my beloved soldiers, until the video release. ❤️
I’ve gained a lot of experience from this animation (which will be about 5 minutes in total) and now wish to move towards more regular, diversified, and less energy-consuming projects. And you'll chose my target 😈
I know you’ll support me no matter what, and you have no idea how much that means to me. Thank you for your patience and support, and I’m doing my best to ensure the final product meets your expectations!
I hope you enjoy this final batch of cuts, and I’ll see you in 20 days for the FINAL post.
In the meantime, take care, my beloved soldiers! ❤️
