MEGA - TURN POSE ANM LINK

That's it guys! I felt it was finally time to give the queen of the page an upgrade!

This update brings a complete redesign of Helen, but of course, I made sure to preserve the essence of her original look so she wouldn't feel like a completely different character. It's the same Helen, just better!

I started working on her on October 5th, and I did my best to get everything done as quickly as possible. I really needed this updated model because, as I mentioned before, we'll be having a special Christmas animation.

As for her outfits, I only made the pajamas she'll be wearing in the animation to save time. Okay, so with that said, yes, I did take a little break from Tatsumaki. I felt like releasing the teaser finally gave me a chance to catch my breath a bit.

Why Helen and not Dexter's Mom?
Since Helen is a redesign, I don't have to spend too much time figuring out her look, especially her face, which is the most challenging part of creating 3D models for me. Translating Dexter's Mom's 2D face into 3D will be quite a challenge and will require a bit more time.

But didn't you hold a poll where everyone voted not to pause Tatsumaki's development?
Yes... but going so long without releasing any new content has been killing me, and the Christmas Special ended up being the perfect opportunity to finally put something out there. I hope I don't disappoint you guys with this decision.
(ಥ﹏ಥ)

So, what's really going on with Tatsumaki? Is it coming out or not?
As always, I want to be completely transparent with you guys, so here's the answer: It's very unlikely to be released this year.
At this point, I'm relying much more on my partner, who's handling the narrative side of the project, since all the 3D material is already finished.
My next step would be working on the sound design, but even that might not be enough to move things forward as much as assembling the story itself would.

With the Christmas Special, I have more creative freedom and can make a lot of progress on my own, so it's the perfect project to release in the meantime.

Wow, that turned out a bit long haha.
Thank you so much!

Helen looks FANTASTIC! I already love her new model! Shes beautiful, looks even more thicc and just a total milf. Cant wait to see what the future holds for your new Helen.

Q

Ill be real man, Im not a fan of this decision. I totally get updating the model for Helen since you already had the bones of it + she is your most popular character, but thats about all I am cool with. The fact is that the Tatsumaki animation has been in the works for a long time now, well over a year and a half, and we had a poll where the majority of people asked you to finish it before doing anything else. Working on another animation while Tatsu remains incomplete goes against what the majority of people wanted you to do. You do not need to do what your patrons tell you to do, but its not a good look when you ask what they want only to do the the opposite; it breaks trust, and it comes off like you are wanting to move on from this project because you have gotten impatient and you just want to work on anything else even it means Tatsu doesnt get finished in a timely manner. Further, while I appreciate the transparency, I really struggle to believe that it takes 3 months to get a narrative together + sound design. I am not calling you a liar, but I just dont understand how complicated it can realistically be to write a story for a scene where its an OC banging the shit out of a big booty anime character. How can that take longer than sound design? Wouldnt doing BOTH the story and the sound design at the same time with your partner move it further along faster? It doesnt make any sense to me. Lastly, by the time it drops it will be nearly 2 years since the project got going. Are there any plans to release previews of some of the finalized scenes to higher tiers? The teaser was nice, but we didnt get to see a lot of those scenes for more than a second at most. Id be more okay this decision if it meant we would be seeing some of the finalized animations since, again, its been such a long wait. If I am alone in thinking this way, then thats fine. As a patron of yours that has been a fan of your work for a while, I wanted to give my honest thoughts. I hope this did not come off as me attacking you or trying to put you down, but I am expressing that I am disappointed with the thought process behind this decision, and frankly I think its the wrong move.

Sam Snyder

I agree. I was thinking similar things in the back of my mind too

I dont know, I don't really like the redesigned face. I like the helen you've been using. If you keep helen 1.0's face that would be nice. She looks way too old and strays way too from the characters original design.

Very nice milf

I completely understand. Let's go through this point by point. The 3D work on all my projects is 100% my responsibility. The area where I struggle and need my partner's help is narrative development. I've been through a lot of personal issues over the past two years that delayed the Tatsu project A LOT, and that's exactly why I'm incredibly grateful for everyone's support, which has allowed me to keep this page going. But now that "my part" of the project is finished, I can't rush my partner through his part, especially since he also has his own job and responsibilities outside of this. As for the poll, I'm not going to dodge the issue. I knew this decision would disappoint some people, but from my perspective, it doesn't make sense for me to sit around doing nothing when I could be bringing you guys content in another way in the meantime. Even if I focus on the sound design for Tatsu's animations, the narrative side will still need its own time, and I'd eventually end up with nothing to work on while waiting. That's exactly what makes the Helen animation a realistic option right now. As I mentioned before, I have almost complete creative freedom and can work independently on these smaller animations. To some extent, yes, at the end of the day, it's an erotic project. But what we're trying to do here is deliver something a little more than just that, giving the characters personality and building a story around them. Projects like *My Friend's Mom 1 and 2*, as well as Tatsumaki, get a different level of attention when it comes to this. The development timeline is a complicated thing to explain because what really happened was that delays piled up throughout the process. Ever since I started working on physics, fluids, and rendering, everything has been progressing within the expected timeframe, taking about as long as it normally should. The real problem happened before that, during the 3D modeling and animation stages. Unfortunately, during that period, my life got turned upside down at least three different times, which had a major impact on the project's progress. As for releasing previews of some of the finished scenes, I'll talk to my partner about the possibility, but personally, I'd prefer to save that content for the actual release. Thank you for the criticism. As you can see, you weren't just speaking for yourself. Other people felt the same way and had similar questions. I hope I've at least managed to explain my perspective to you guys. You can be sure that conversations like this help strengthen and improve our community. And if there's anything I missed or something that's still unclear, please don't hesitate to bring it up.

I can definitely see how it might feel a little strange at first, but let's try a few animations and see if that feeling goes away. (◉ω◉)

Q

I appreciate you taking the time to respond to all of my points. There are some people who either would have ignored it, or banned me out right, so that is not lost on me. Thank you. I'm sorry you have had personal issues come up that have impacted this project, and had a profound impact on you. That is never fun, and I hope things are better now. I can see how my language may have come off as criticizing the wait, but I was more so focusing on the fact that we are so close to the end that it, in my mind, makes sense to finish the sound then let your partner do their thing and do the narrative piece. That way it is completely finished on your end and all you have to do is release it once your partner is done; freeing you up to work on anything else while you wait. I get the narrative angle you are going with, and I do agree that there is more narrative comparatively to your shorts, but to me the ones that do have narratives are not super in depth. They have some setup and some in between scenes, but it usually ends with the character Jimmy bangs becoming cock drunk. I do understand that your partner has a real job and other real life things outside of this, so I get that it takes time for this reason. I think it would help alleviate some of the disappointment if you released one or two select scenes that were in the teaser to the diamond tier only. That way people who have/are paying the most have something to hold them over since, like you said, its not coming this year. You could even release one preview a month for the tatsu scene while working on the Helen scene since that is gonna take time as well. Thank you again for hearing what I have to say and being open to a conversation.
