I've made some progress with renders, but not as much as I'd wished. I had to redo about 40 renders which ate up a lot of time. The issue was that the scene was overloaded with assets, which triggered a fallback on CPU during rendering. Which means render times went up from ~20 minutes to ~5 hours per render. And of course I noticed way too late 😖. Stupid mistake that hopefully won't happen again (which I already said last time it happened, so let's hope I suffered enough to remember now 😬).

For the sake of transparency I'll say that I'm currently about 200 renders behind what I planned initially a couple weeks back.

Not much else to report, except:

❤️ Thank you for your support and Happy Pride 🏳️‍🌈❤️
