First off: DON'T pledge until after the 1st, unless you want Patreon to double dip- pay up front is enabled.
Second: I'll post the MEGA link on the 1st and maybe slap down a paid poll right away, just to kick things off.
Anyway, here we go. I made the poll tier again, but this time it comes with a MEGA link ...
2019-05-24 07:39:37 +0000 UTC View PostBasically done: lopunny, elephant, pangolin, pikachu, latias.
To-do: braixen (probably tweaking the fur look a little, but not much else,) and the arcanine (some shenanigans with her hands and feet, mostly. I might tweak her body texture a little, too.)
Redoing their models and upgrading bits breaks their shape ke...
2019-05-17 09:03:30 +0000 UTC View PostFeels really awkward to leave this page untouched for too long. Yes, I know it's technically a tip jar and there's not actually a whole lot to post about, but it still feels kinda dirty. IDK, I guess I could always just slap thoughts down randomly?

2019-05-07 07:57:36 +0000 UTC View PostA project I'm rendering is taking longer than I planned, so I had too much free time on my hands and made four polls. I'd host them here, but I don't want to make four posts for that.
The polls cover several topics and all but the hybrid DNA poll are multiple choice.
Best part of the body to expand...
2019-04-29 23:23:54 +0000 UTC View PostInstalled without a hitch, mostly. While installing one of the RAM sticks, one of the clips that hold them in broke off and I nearly had a heart attack, but it turns out the clip was from one of the unused slots on my board and that almost a decade of sitting there had begun to turn it brittle... I guess.
Anyway, it's pret...
A paired set of RAM sticks, total capacity 16 GB.
Total cost was... 73ish USD, so I knocked $70 off the budget counter. Should be here in two days. After this, there's not really anything else I can do without upgrading the motherboard, so it'll be a lot of stockpiling and saving.
Anyway, the new RAM will al...
2019-04-23 19:40:56 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a while, so here's a quick summary of life right now, on and off the internet.
I figure anyone who runs a Patreon should be a little transparent about their lives, although I might be overdoing it.
Computer/Rendering:
-Still going good overall, no major issues
-Pretty sure one of my two old RAM st...
Haven't really had anything important to say on here lately. Still on-and-off poking around for the best RAM sticks under budget that fit on my motherboard, but haven't decided on one specifically yet.
Running a little poll for the heck of it: Filenames.
With a lot of uploads to my pages, I leave the filenames as wha...
Saved up a bit now, looking to get another upgrade for my dino-PC.
Currently eyeing upgrading the RAM.
I gotta explain one bit, though, it won't directly affect renders, specifically. I keep maxing out my RAM usage whenever I'm editing videos. Actually crashed a couple times when editing videos with a lot of complex ...
2019-04-04 16:02:57 +0000 UTC View Post1. The poll ended in a tie, so I broke it. The pangolin woman's name is Pannetia.
2. Just put out another series of NSFW pics.
2a. Going to look into more methods of saving render time with certain lighting scenarios. Can't be doing these placeholder backgrounds forever.
3. Definitely busy during April Fools, s...

Pangolin nickname poll: www.strawpoll.me/17695399
I've been busy lately with spring cleaning and other good-weather stuff. (My poor motorcycle's finally getting some fresh air!)

2019-03-28 17:04:06 +0000 UTC View PostIt wont affect MY Patreon, but it might affect someone you know, and will definitely affect you if you make your own page in the future.
You've probably seen someone mention/complain about it, but here's the skinny:
-New Patreon pages are basically limited to being for tip jars
-Anyone running a Patreon page can g...
Probably shoulda disabled the multiple choice option, but eh.
2019-03-19 23:46:36 +0000 UTC View PostForgot to actually link the polls here, but the Braixen's name is Bixxti and the elephant's name is Eila.
2019-03-17 10:17:22 +0000 UTC View PostRunning it on Strawpoll now, since people pointed out that even the free polls on Patreon require you to log in.
2019-03-09 18:05:48 +0000 UTC View PostI'll admit I have a teeny backlog. They may take a little bit for me to get to, but I'm hoping I don't forget them in the process.

Trying to learn more about rigging characters so they can bend and move a little more freely. It's working pretty well so far (see that weird pic I made of Isabelle drinking while holding the cup with her feet!)
I've mostly been focusing on pelvis, hip and lower spine rigging so far, I'll play around with a few tutorials o...
I changed the goals and tiers up a bit.
I changed the overpriced tier to something a bit more valuable, since slapping your name on something isn't usually something you'd spend a goofy amount of money on, unless I was globally famous or something.
The goals were changed because:
1. I'm the caretaker for my Gra...
It's goofy, but I like it. I'm going to stick these on the hybrids for a long while. I haven't decided if I should make the names be written in different handwriting to make it look like they wrote their own names or not, though.
I want to dig up some of the older models and upgrade them, then turn them into full-blown (ha) characters alongside the others. (Ninetales is still coming, but she's going to require a little extra work because I'm going to do something a little different with her.)
Anyway, here's a list of names and I want people to v...
2019-02-19 18:40:24 +0000 UTC View PostOof, I like all the exercise from shoveling all this snow and lugging around a big bucket full of salt, but I'm wiped out, heh. Judging by weather reports, I'll probably just have to shovel again tomorrow and that'll be it. I might be away from my computer this weekend for unrelated reasons, though.

2019-02-12 07:02:16 +0000 UTC View PostLooks like people like her old legs as-is. My time right now is a 50/50 split between a commission I'm working on and dealing with my Grandma being, well, old, but when I finish the commission, I'll get the hybrids back into the holographic room and start deciding what Lyyona's flying attachments look like.
2019-02-09 19:05:13 +0000 UTC View PostLooking at changing the design on her leg prosthetics around, preferably with the capability for flight. Pick the ideas you like, suggest ideas in the comments, if you want.

2019-02-03 08:33:48 +0000 UTC View PostThe winners are:
Arcanine: Arkka
Latias: Lyyona
Pikachu: Payya
I'll hold off on using the names until this "broken holo-room" series is done and I'll unironically slap "Hello, my name is _________" stickers on them for, like, a month.
The quirks of this world's names are:
-Women almost always end their names in a vowel.
-Men rarely end their names with a vowel.
-Names commonly come with an "ae" or "ea" in it, or at least an "ea/ae" sound.
-Names commonly have double consonants.
Just for giggles, (and simplicity's sake) I'm going...

It's a bit of a cheesy way to get information out, but the lab's bulletin board has a new note.
