Animated WIP (Patreon)

Time for some more rivals. I really wanted to use Jean again and figured why not do a quick animation of her. I wanted to use Mantis instead of Sue but the model for Sue was more convenient and this is meant to be quick so I went ahead and used her instead. Now that I think about is, it's strange I've used Sue so much, she looks nice but I like all the other characters just as much.

Will get those extra versions of the last animation rendered up when I can. Working on this had me pushing it back a small bit.

Clothes Choice

I'm really stuck on what to do with Jean. I have 2-3 variations of clothing and not sure what to do. The one shown in the WIP I want to go with because it shows off the legs and curve of the butt which I really want to display but I think it looks inferior to the other half of the uniform I could use instead. I think nude is really good here but I normally have the clothed version as the main. I'll look into it some more.

Facial Expressions

There aren't any expressions in the WIP but just wanted to give a heads up. I'm trying something new with facial expressions I think will work pretty well. Before I would do pose to pose for facial expression (meaning to just pose the face, then another, and then move between them), but I'm going to try layering facial poses. So it's similar but when doing it the first way I would move from one face to the next but here I'm going to have multiple faces on each layer and blend between then, so instead of moving between 2 faces, I can blend an infinite amount of them. Think of it like when you are using sliders in character creation for games and it lets you mix and match. I'll be doing that and animating it.
