Hi everyone, here is the 5th WIP for the Cynthia animation!
I wanted to squeeze out one more post before the end of the year. I've finished the cleanup for the linework on the loops for each version, and also done all the inbetweening as well. I've also done a number of animation corrections, just adjusting or adding a few things here and there as well as fixing some mistimings in the movement from the keys. It feels like I can never get it quite right straight off the bat but I feel like I'm getting better at it. I've layered it on top of the rough animation so you can get a clear comparison on what's changed since last time.
I was hoping to have the lighting cleaned up as well but I only managed to get the cleanup done for the fx. I'll have it ready for the next post along with the climax scenes.
Honestly, it feels like this animation has gotten hit with a lot of delays with the tech issues and the holidays shortly after, but things seem to be winding down now and I feel like I'm on track to finish this by the end of January at the latest, so thank you all for your patience! I've definitely been slow with the releases this year but it's felt much better to be able to put as much care into the animations as I've been able to, and I feel like they've improved a lot. It's also felt great to finally start working on the oc in earnest and share that with you so please look forward to more of that in the new year as well.
I'd like to wish you all happy holidays and hope you've had a good 2024, here's to an even better 2025! I'll see you next year :3
