Hello folks and welcome to a really brief progress report!
Work on Lulu's model continues. The challenge of getting her right is pretty monumental but I am making progress. While touching upon stuff I've never actually had to contend with in Blender is an interesting prospect, it is also very time consuming and requires extensive notes so that I don't have to reorient myself entirely from scratch every Thursday, but given people's feedback on my work evolving in the long run I think it'll be a necessary step in so far as the future goes. Scene builds for the project are largely done, script is also in rather nice order, so pardon me as I dedicate Thursdays going forward, however many I might need, towards this endeavor. I am firmly of the mind that it'll be worth it in the end.
Comic work continues every Tuesday as well, with Jack's script coming along. I've prepped some models for the matter as well, and will have to modify no small amount of scenery to fit the idea I have, but it's coming along.
Wednesday animation work is also coming along. The Tifa+Scarlet+Ifalna piece is coming together nicely and I'm presently in the process of fixing up Tifa, whose double penetration is a longer process than Scarlet's standing doggy, but it's coming, mark my words.
Dates of note:On-going community poll pertaining to character variation: LINKLess Popular Ladies nomination period opening tomorrow Saturday 23rd.Scenario nominations period for June 2026 opening on the 28th.
For those concerned about the character variation poll, I can say that I have no intentions of changing the monthly content schedule all in all. I'm more looking at tweaks around the edges that might impact the LPL qualifications somewhat (or perhaps where even I hand-select characters on occasion) like we used to have it, with every second month having a "maximum 3 prior animations" setup or similar. It also might impact my future, personal selection for Wednesdays to be geared towards more "mid-tier" lady representation or the likes, but we'll see how the outcome and general feedback on the poll looks like when it finishes on the 31st.
And I believe that's it for this week! Thank you everyone as always for your support and kind words, and hope you'll have a real nice weekend! Take care of yourselves out there, as well as each other!/DH
