Sunday Update ~ Last Releases & What’s Next (Patreon)

Hi everyone~
Welcome back to our Sunday update!
✨Posted this week: Check It Out ✨
• (N)SFW - Kiss and Push - Sofa & Bed variations will open for "Oh 😳" on July 26th
A conversation... a look... and then one of them finally gives in.
This animation is meant to capture that exact moment when words aren't enough anymore. One kiss naturally leads to another until they end up on the sofa or the bed without ever breaking the flow of the scene.
It includes both sofa and bed versions, making it a perfect transition between dialogue scenes and more intimate moments, or simply as a romantic scene on its own.
• Storytelling ~ Sitting Idle / Talk Collection will open for "Oh 😳" on August 2nd / for free on october 2nd
One pack... countless conversations!
This new collection brings together all of my current sitting Idle / Talk animations into one large package.
With 8 different sitting poses, 40 animation variations, multiple emotional versions, phone interactions, floor, sofa and bed conversations... you'll have plenty of options to make your dialogue scenes feel more natural and less repetitive.
I hope it'll become one of those packs you keep coming back to whenever your Sims simply need to... sit and talk.
✨ Here’s what’s still waiting to move down tiers: ✨
• July 14th: NSFW - Spooning — Safe in Your Arms - 2 will open for "Oh 😳"• July 22nd: Storytelling ~ Entangled Pillow Talk will open for FREE• August 16th: SFW - Safe in Your Arms: Hug and Talk will open for FREE
This week was almost entirely dedicated to the kissing animation and touch up for the sitting idle/talk pack.
I wanted to get it to a point where I was happy enough to finally share it with you.
That said... I also wanted to be honest.
It's one of those animations where I can clearly see what I'd like to improve. Some head movements still feel a little stiff to me, and there's unwanted shaking toward the end of the full-body transition for the top sim.
Usually, when I notice issues like these, I know exactly how to fix them... but this time, I just couldn't quite get there. I know what's causing it, and I know what I would need to change, but that would mean redoing almost everything and hoping it turns out clean this time. It would also mean reducing the full-body movement, which would make the Sims feel stiff and unnatural. And honestly, I don't really feel like redoing everything. When I spend too long on an animation, I start feeling like I'm going a little crazy! So in the end, I'm happy enough with it, even if it's not quite as perfect as I would have hoped.
I guess kissing scenes are something I still have a lot to improve my skills!
It's a little frustrating, but it's also part of the process. Every animation teaches me something new, and I'll definitely keep practicing until I can create exactly what I have in mind.
I still hope you'll enjoy it despite those imperfections, that it's good enough for you too, and that you're not disappointed. 🖤
Now it's time to move on to the next project!
I'll be starting a new NSFW standing animation this week.
And once that's finished, I'd really like to create a continuation of the kissing scene, so it can naturally lead into the next moment... Real NSFW this time! just like I've been enjoying doing with my recent animation sequences.
As always, thank you so much for your support
See you soon 🖤
