MAY 2026 NEWSLETTER RETURN OF THE FUC
the turkish chud hacking fuckery has been quelled and i regained access to my discord account but not before deconsecrating the patron server and replacing it with a new oneall (paid) patrons with discord accounts should have automatically been shunted into the new one but if you weren't, i updated the welcome message on patreon with the invite to the new discord server, and if you can't find that just dm mewith this clean slate i hope to manage and engage with patrons a lot better this time around, so at least once a month we will be doing SOMETHING together in the server through events, whether it be watching a film, doing art stuff, DnD stuff, or playing whatever games would be available, MOVING ON TO
animation tutorial
i now have a current draft of the animation tutorial ready for your viewing pleasure, there is still some visual flair and onscreen info i can add before it's finished, i speak very quickly here because the context is that mirabelle opened a portal into my room and put a bomb next to me saying it'll go off if i don't teach you how to animate in blender in 6 or 7 () minutes, but hopefully the pace isn't overwhelming and can be followed moderately easily https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjMzgFr_Eho the tutorial will be bookended by some animated snippets at the start and end of the video which ups the runtime but just know that the actual tutorial itself is only as long as the linked video; something else i want to do for this tutorial is include an FAQ in the pinned comment to cover any questions or confusion not addressed in the video, if you watch this tutorial now and have any lingering questions about it please post your question in the q-and-a-chat in the NEW PATRON SERVER and the question and my answer to it will be added to the FAQ, thank you
character rig to put on sale
holy shit dude the glow up kasumi's gotten since last you saw her, techwear kimonos are crazy, from here i have to consolidate the materials into one or two texture atlases, add shading to hopefully bring it more in line with how i rendered her in the concept art, do all the weight painting and rigging which will be insane, clean up the file and put it on sale
putting jeanne and jalter up for download
honestly this might be the quicker thing to do after the animation tutorial, it's just cleanup and shader updates, it'll be a google drive link or something that's all have fun get owned
