Poll For Tier Names (tie breaker)

Hey everyone :D So the last poll for new tier names came really close!

Since that poll went up, I had the idea of combining two different options: The medal-based names (bronze, silver, gold) and character-based, into a set of "ranked" characters: Bronze Snake -> Silver Hyena -> Golden Fox.

This idea has s...

Caught Up, Diamond Tier Exclusive

Exclusive angle of "Caught Up" for Diamond Tier. I added some camera movement to this one, which was missing from the original. You can also see the mess that he makes! lol. Though I had to fade it out so that it'd fit in with the loop.

Caught Up

Not the cleverest title in existence, but it's all I could think of. Some more tentacle threading action, and also kind of a huge moment, as it's the first time that our hyena has ever climaxed! Can you believe he's been at it this long and hasn't finished once? lol

I would have had this rendered out ...

Fox animation second look, 4K stills

As promised, here's the stills for the animation preview rendered in 4K. :)

Fox animation, second look!

So! It's the beginning of April, and it's been almost two months since I last gave an update on the fox animation. This one has been a real doozy so far, and has definitely been far more difficult than I anticipated.

I can say without a doubt that this is the hardest animation I've ever done, and it's for that reason th...

Slime Pit, 4K Still (2)

Another 4K still of the Slime Pit animation, this time with the depth of field more focused on what we all want to see, lol. :3

Slime Pit (Exclusive)

Exclusive angle for the Slime Pit animation. Ended up not using the stereoscopy feature to render both angles at the same time for this one, since there was some stuff I needed to fix in this angle beforehand.

Source video is attached. ^^ Enjoy!

Slime Pit (Animation)

Definitely the most unnatural-looking setting I've done, but I like the idea of a slimy pit with tentacles in it, lol. Though there's only one tentacle here, it is busy pumping our yeen full of Tentacle Stuff™.

Poll for changing the tier names

Hey all :3 I've been wondering for a while if I should change the names of the existing tiers. When I first made the page, Minecraft item tiers were the first thing that came to mind. However, I realize that naming scheme might not be the most fitting or relevant for my page, so I wanted to ask everyone's opinion on the matte...

Slime Pit, 4K Still

4K Still render of the next short animation loop :3

Cave Encounter, Part Two (Exclusive)

Exclusive angle for Diamond Tier! I was able to get this one out quickly instead of a few days later like I ordinarily would. The reason for that is because I found out about Blender's "stereoscopy" feature, which allowed me to render from multiple cameras at the same time. It's definitely a really useful feature, and somethi...

Cave Encounter, Part Two (Animation)

Short animation of my previous Cave Encounter still! I got a little carried away with this one originally, which is why it took longer than I expected to get it finished. Eventually I had to remind myself that the whole point of these shorter loops was to have them be short and simple, lol. So I dialed it back and ended up wi...

ANNOUNCEMENT: Upcoming Tier Changes

Hello again :D Today I want to announce some upcoming changes for the page as well as the existing tiers.

At the moment, I've decided to rework some of how the rewards will be distributed. Recently I introduced the benefit ...

New Goal and Reward!

Hey everyone :D I just wanted to announce that as of today, the page has a new goal of AU$500/mo!

It's been almost a year since this page first launched, and I'm really happy with the growth it's had in that time -- and I wanted to thank everyone who's supported me in these endeavors so far. ^^

I want to contin...

Hyena on the Rocks (4K Re-render)

4K Still re-render of one of my older animations. :D

Cave Encounter Exclusive

Exclusive angle for Diamond Tier :D Little bit more of a focus on the face this time. Oh! And in the last few posts I've been putting subsurface scattering on the tentacles. I always had that turned off, because it adds to render times and makes the image noisier -- but I think it's kind of worth it.

Cave Encounter Animation

Here's the full thing :D Still kind of noisy, but nowhere near as bad as it was. I'll also be doing an exclusive angle for this one, which I'll put up in a few days. Uncompressed version is attached!

Cave Encounter Preview

Preview of Cave Encounter, admittedly very noisy due to the volumetrics. For that reason I'll be rendering the full version at double the usual sample count. But until that's done, enjoy :D

End of month animation report!

Hello again! :3

Once again it's the end of the month, and I have another animation report. This time I'm actually working on two animations! But the main focus is on the fox animation, so I'll start with that.

This animation has been a pretty challenging one so far, and it's definitely pushing the limits of what I...

Cave Encounter, Part Two (plus announcement)

Today! Some threading...in the opposite direction o.o

This is the second part to the earlier "Cave Encounter" render. This one gave me some trouble; mainly, Blender kept on either crashing or outputting a blank image. But I finally got it working, lol.

Also, the poll results are in! Goal rewards will be early a...

$250 Goal Reached!

Hey everyone :D

The AU$250/mo goal has been reached! There have been times where it's been difficult to imagine that the page would get to this point, but you've made it possible ^^ So I wanted to thank you all for your support! It really does mean a lot to me, and I'm looking forward to bringing you even more content...

Fox Animation first look (plus a small announcement)

Hey all :D I'm back again with a render and an announcement.

A couple nights ago I began animating this fox character's debut video. All the time up until then was spent trying to build the environment, and admittedly there's still some work to be done there -- but I got it to a point where I can finally start the anima...

Cave Encounter

My first one-off render! Because this is a still image, I was able to do things like volumetric scattering, 4K resolution, and full global illumination. All of that stuff bumped the render time up to ten minutes, so I wouldn't be able to get away with something like this for an animation -- but I love the way it looks, lol. 2022-02-07 15:44:36 +0000 UTC View Post

Should goal rewards be exclusive or early access?

Hi all! First, I wanted to say, wow! $200 AUD/mo is a huge milestone, and you all helped me achieve something that, only a few months ago, seemed like it would be out of reach for a long time. So, I wanted to thank you all for your support, and for helping me on the path to growing this page and making more and better content...

Character Reveal: The Fox!

So! Three months after announcing that I'd have a new character to show soon, here we are, lol. It's a fox! Disney's foxes are what got me interested in this kind of stuff way back when, and it would be remiss of me if I never made one.

Production on this model actually began back in late July of last year, and back the...

In The Woods, Diamond Tier Exclusive

Exclusive angle for Diamond Tier! There's still some issues in the animation that crept through, but nothing that I think detracts from it.

I should also have a post up in a few days talking about the new model. But until then, enjoy. :D

And as always, the uncompressed version is attached.

In The Woods, Full Patreon Release

Note: The uncompressed version of the animation is attached to this post.

Hello hello! Finally got this animation fully rendered, lol.

I really gave myself a challenge with this one. What started out as a simple tentacle loop turned into a longer loop, which then became several different animatio...

In the Woods Extended, Iron Tier Preview

Hey all :D Finally got the Iron Tier preview for my next animation ready. There's a lot I want to talk about with this one, but I'm saving the full write-up for the full release of the animation, which should hopefully be in a couple to a few days. There are a couple things I want to cover for this release specifically, howev...

(Almost) End-of-month animation report

Hey all! I'm back this time with a new screenshot, as well as a near-end-of-month animation report, lol.

I've been working on this one pretty frequently, and I'm getting it to a point where it's more or less complete.

This animation's split into a few different sections, and I've been animating the stages separa...

In the Woods Exclusive Angle, Screenshot Preview (plus small announcement)

Hello all! This is just a screenshot of the exclusive angle video for Stone/Iron tier folks.

Also, I wanted to announce that henceforward I'll be uploading the source videos of my animations as attachments, since the compression on Imgur is pretty bad.

At this moment I've attached the original video files to In ...
