Trying to see if I've improved at all in the last few months, so I pulled an old project and tried to update it with some stuff. One thing that's been suggested to me is Subsurface Scattering and yeah, I'll really have to learn/play with that.

Worked on a render for @articchillin.bsky.social this evening. This was just a random idea I had, love my husbean, but not sure how he's getting out of this fight...

Never realized how much cake the Abiboi Big Cat has... Also realized that this retexture was the basis of what has become my design.
And I would never have noticed this without @jakewerepanther.bsky.social talking about the great cake on the alphazear (which I have as well)

Two renders I did recently for my husbean @articchillin.bsky.social, I believe he will be using them for his stream, well okay I know the one he has been but not sure if he will for the second one.

Been working on a 3D render of a bar for my husband @articchillin.bsky.social for his stream. Since he revealed it tonight, thought I'd share a picture. I'm very excited to work on this and expand/change it in the future.

You know, I have all the parts to do it, I could "easily" create a VRM of this boy, but at the same time, I can't because I don't have one clothing item for him, a maid outfit >.<
I mean, I could make one but I don't want to...

I created a quick render for a new profile picture. I really like it :)

So I've been trying more and more to figure out what I can do with my renders, I hope I'm doing a good job, but anyways, here are three more renders I did yesterday morning before streaming...

And I finished updating the lights in this demo scene that I got that I also know I'm going to use..

Not sure if much has changed in the way of lighting, but I'm about 80-ish percent finished updating all the lights in this blender scene...

Got a dungeon asset to do renders in, but all lights are too dim, so gotta finish fixing that and going to add candle flames, which might take a long time too. But I think this will have some use...

You know, the last couple of days in VRChat, wearing the Alphazear that I've modified for my fursona has been a little wild. I have had multiple times where people say I wear it well and that admittedly has given me a confidence boost.

I had been anticipating the Alphazear from @boiabi.bsky.social since it was ammounced. I took some time to add my fursona bits into the avatar, make it look more cat like and I have to say, my anticipation was well, well worth it. I love the avatar.
Merci Abiboi pour l'avatar, il est magnifique.

So one of the "bad decisions" I made was buying this avatar when I didn't know that a creditor was going to try to take out twice what they should. But I've been "cooking" tonight and I think I'll have him finished by Sunday evening, since I finished that render much more quickly that expected

Did a render for @scout080.bsky.social, he was very happy with it. I finish this much more quickly that expected, leaves me time to do other things this weekend!

Apparenlty if I have the right things setup, then it takes me very little time to create a render, but I know this normally wouldn't be the case, if I had to do a character from scratch, like mine, we would be looking at about 16 hours to get to a point where I can do these four scenes in an hour.

And here's a starship... Maybe the captain needs some help, someone that is hands on...

Trying out a new scene, a gym, in Blender, created a render from it, learned some things about getting my character correctly setup for Blender renders...

Also for some reason I really like this picture from VRC of my avatar, the one with the ground and one without, for some reason, I can't explain it.

You know. There is one thing missing from my avatar, my fursona and that is wings. That's right, my cat/deer/derg has always had wings but I've had so much trouble finding something that worked.
But I think I finally found something that'll work. Now to purchase it and get it onto my avatar.

Long night in VRC, time to pass out, me thinks, so I can get to stream in 8 to 9ish hours

Feels like tonight would be a good time to relax, chill by a fire and have a drink or two.

You know I had this picture as a reply to @jakewerepanther.bsky.social before getting into VR to take pictures for the first time, which might be tonight. But you know what? I really like it for just being in Unity during my testing.
