Saturday Update! (Patreon)

Good morning! Saturday is here and it's time for another update!

I got a fair amount of work done last week- smaller numbers but a lot of the drawings involved character movement/more changes than just expressions.

My wrist seems to have healed up fine since I caught it early and went ham with the braces, though I'm still keeping an eye on it and wearing a brace for playing video games.

So, let's get into it!

Current Image Finalization: 684/745 - 92%

I worked on two chunks of CGs last week, finishing one and getting partway into the next.

[ They're kinda horny. fair warning. ]

This last one has revealed an unfortunate problem.

Which is Strade gleefully snorting my UI chains.

Although this is funny, I feel like I can't ship like this 😂 So my choices are:

move the chains so they're tighter in the corner and interfere with the art less

change the programming of the chains so that they only show up when a side portrait shows up on screen [ not sure if this is possible but I feel like it might be the most elegant solution ] I will look into this to see if it can be done.

just nuke them and remove the chains entirely

The middle choice appeals to me the most but if I can't do it, then I'll have to decide between the other choices.

I may not address this right away though. I have a small to-do list of fixes that I'll get to when I finish the art [ which I have added this issue to ]. The other fixes are just minor art changes [ some side portraits have the wrong color lighting, that kind of thing ].

And I think that's about all I have this week!

Tomorrow is Dec 1st so I will be dropping a credits update as soon as I can in the morning 👍

Uh, also some warning, things might get shaky in the next couple weeks. I'll do my best of course but there's some major issues going on behind the scenes and they're causing me a lot of stress. I got into a fight with my reno company this week and I'll be having a meeting next week to address it [ don't want to get into it, has nothing to do with my work ] and the Canada Post strike situation has also gone really bad. I've been forced to close my store and hand out refunds to angry customers and I genuinely do not know if I'll ever be able to sell merch again.

Nothing much I can do or say though. I'll just keep working like a good donkey LMAO

Stay safe and take it easy this weekend! If the roads are bad stay home! And of course, see you all- uh, tomorrow. And next week.
