Syandene Model Update! (Patreon)

I got finished all the Monthly commitments a little early this time around and had a few days before I needed to start on that model commission I'm taking, so I decided to put that time to use by refurbing the Syandene model, similar to how I had done so with a few of the other models before. Syandene is probably my most popular character and comes up in suggestions and commissions very often, so she really needs to have a capable model, and she just didn't. The 'before' version was not only uglier but was also not up to the task mechanically. You can see in this example: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/42278208/ how her elbow joint is... like, what is that even doing? Ew. That's just one example, there were many others. She really needed some work. 

This update was much more extensive than earlier ones though- I even went so far as to make some changes to the base mesh, which required redoing the fur from scratch. Pretty much a complete tear-down and rebuild. Worth it though! Before I rendered out these example I thought I'd be saying that there isn't much of a visual difference and most of it would be mechanical, but now that I see the before/after side by side there's actually a lot of difference and damn if she don't be looking much better now. The previous version was very... chunky, for lack of a better word. The anatomy just feels kinda blobby.  New version is looking a lot more sleek. Also she got her piercings back... at some point they just disappeared. Not sure what happened but they were nowhere to be found in the file. She definitely doesn't look right without them!This feels real good- I was starting to really hate using her model due to how out of date it was, and that just wasn't acceptable for my flagship character, heh. What do you guys think? The image I uploaded is pretty high res so you should be able to take a nice close look!And who's due for an update next? Runolfur comes to mind... despite being a non-character that was barely used his name still pops up on occasion, so folks seem to like him. The doe could also use some touchups though.... there may be others in need too! Thoughts?
