Various stuff update

Kind of a generic title for a post but I don't have like... one thing that's developed enough to talk about on it's own yet. I've been trying to find a VA for Cerenthea in that solo animation and might have found a VA (maybe, I have two VA's I'm currently waiting for voice from) but unfortunately it's going to take longer than I was anticipating to get the VA stuff settled for that... I'm sorry!

In the mean time I've been working on the deep dish stuff. The shot of the pig reacting to about to be AV'd I think it turned out pretty good! (that's what's in the post image above). I posted a more in-depth update about in on Subscribe Star the other day:

In the mean time I've been working on a couple things... I think after the deep dish thing I'm going to go back to the raptors/parasaur animation (as my next pretty-longish animation). HOWEVER if I'm going to work on a long-form project with these characters I want to make sure the designs of everything are nice enough to where I won't hate myself for the decisions I made months previously... so I've been thinking of some redesigns for the raptors. Here's a concept of Tyler and Taylor:

I like the old design because of the angular stylization and I feel like it's pretty unique

but at the same time... I feel like smoothing things out, making them a bit more color standard raptor-green and leaning a bit more into one is more masculine and one is more feminine is a good improvement. It just seems to me more smooth = more lewd appeal...

I also decided I should redo the body in an attempt to improve the anatomy. Taylor is a bit softer than his bro so his body reflects it. Might thin him down a touch but I tried to match the references I was looking at of twink-adjacent bodies (just a bunch of fem boy/twink/slim thick people from my "inspiration" folder)I was also very unhappy with the head of the meat on the original so I gathered up a bunch of references of large dongs and tried to model a head and shaft that has more appeal to it.

 I feel like Jake's head holds up pretty good after all this time so the only thing I'm going to be tweaking on him is the body as some point. But seeing him with near the newer designs of the raptors... they're style matches a lore more nicely now I think.

Ignore the clipping >_>

(I'm just realizing... he's at perfect nip suck/arm pit smell height... hmmm 🤔) 

I also messed around with a quick animation of him pushing a bowling ball out of his butt (you may remember the bowling ball and bowling pins in his room in that animation where Taylor is listening to him use his machine- that's what those are for~)

 I'd rather tweak his body before doing anything more with it though but it was a fun little exercise trying to convey the weight of a bowling ball falling out of a loose hole and landing on a bed.

Anyway since the character animation is done for this short, small thing I've been working on in secret (with Modca's blessing of course!) as a fun tribute to Modca's umbreon I'm going to try getting this finished (also attached below). I just need to do the fluids (which I'm working on rn) and add sounds and such.

My apologies for not having anything finished for awhile now... I was certain it wouldn't take too long to find VA for the Cerenthea animation but I was wrong. I'm hoping to have something finished asap!
