In the beniningui... I've been spending so many time rendering fixes for DV32 that, after some findings and inspirations, I managed to and plan Countryside City/Milf arc for Giantess Dream seasons 2 and 3 connecting those characters to the actual timeline of Domina's Valley/Cheap Tricks, a gap that's been there for a while already. The old draft stories will become chapters soon and a 3rd season deepening the Wintergreen Garden Family lore into the canon with the presentation of a proper protagonist for a "nightmare scenario" will be very fun to explore.
This extra time invested in DV 32 happened for multiple reasons like continuation errors, animation errors, light bugs, fixes in the scene, multiple "out of memory" breaks and etc. This reminded me that I'm on a complicated position right now: my setup has limitations. Those will be fixed with time. Hopefully. I hope.
Speaking of which, I also tested some online and local AI tools. it feels much better now and is very promising: it evolved a lot and could fix my problems with animations... I mean, I can render a massive scene with more quality and less errors by feeding it with keyframes and filling in with prompts, references and trained models, instead of rendering for 24 hours and finding out 3 out of 20 frames are glitching and screwing the animation.
BUT(T) sure, AI is not perfect, most of the time it breaks the scene and adds crap, but I managed to do simple things that gave me hope. It might be possible to turn those into animated comics and, who knows, one day make Cheap Tricks a soap opera with proper voices and actions?
The potential is there. I just need a 48gb card to run the model I want and invest hundreds of hours training the characters nodes... but that's for later. Testing it while waiting for the queue to clear was fun.
I used an old project where Madison is accompanied with Wendy, that is quite big. In the original idea Maddie was REEEEALY upset with her mother's overdevelopment. It was crazy hard to make it look okay before posting, most of the time something came off, without proper trainings I had to rely on seeds variations because I can't invest big time on adjustments.
I think this is a good example of how things could come out one day.
Enjoy the attachment, it has sound!PS: I'm reviewing the final DV 32 right now. After this I might go for DV 33 and clear out this part of the plot and probably CT 46 then. Unfortunately this knot couldn't be fixed before and this might take some months to fix... but hey, got massive animation knowledge and the Gordon State is free for housing the next NCExtra and future chapters of DV, so I'll call it a win.
