Aerith Wants You to Think About Her (Patreon)

Hey all. It's April Fools' but I don't have any thematic pranks or anything, so I'm just bringing you a new loop instead. This is a 7 second loop with Aerith from FFVII dressed as a waifu(white fishnet stockings and gloves). I love this view from below, and how intensely she looks at the viewer.

This is not really a new model, it's an updated version of an old model I made years ago. I only ever used her for a few pictures and one animation(I think it was just the animation with Aerith and Tifa together from quite some time ago). As for the animation itself, it's the same motion I made for Scarlet's instructional video, but with Aerith instead. They share the same skeleton so I thought why not.

There are three versions. One is ray-traced(like the preview picture above). The other ones were rendered in EEVEE as usual. The ray-traced one looks really nice but it took over an hour just to render barely a second. It'd take about 10 hours to render the whole 7 second loop with Cycles.
