The thing is, 300 static renders in a week is in itself shocking, but to add 19 animated scenes on top of that is out of this world.
Maybe DPC is just built different and he got better at rendering?
How in the fuck does DPC pose all of those scenes and characters so fast? Does he have a lot of pre-set poses or previously saved generic poses that he pulls up and alters slightly or is he just some kind of a virtuoso? He would have been a great stop-motion animator back in the day. It takes me forever to get things like facial expressions and hands/fingers to be positioned properly, but this m'fer can do it instantly. I'm impressed, but also jelly. :cautious:

seem to me to be aspects that have already been touched upon anyway

if we trust the appearance it is really hard to think that Sage was with Chad for anything other than a power issue

and Sage also tells us about her relationship with her current family (whether it is then not very congruent with what we have seen is another matter)
Or if we think about drama, Sage's biological parents can appear because she searched about them when she was younger and it can give more depht for why Sage is Sage.

DAZ 3D is a very simple engine. If you have enough money, you can safely buy the environment and clothes for the characters and just arrange them as you need. If in a blender, in order to create a scene, you have to do a lot manually (modeling, sculpting, texturing, working with nodes, arranging lights and cameras, compositing), then Pink simply uses ready-made packs of poses, costumes, and so on. Since Pink is pretty bad at working on the textures of clothes and environments, I think most of the work on static he is busy adjusting the light and camera and posing. And yes, you're right, he has ready-made assets of poses, this is especially noticeable in the last episode, where Sage, Lily and Envy had the same reverse rider pose.

This will be a short and sweet update.

Since last Friday, I have posed ~300 renders and 19 animations.

130 animations are fully produced, and I have 22 animations in the render queue; the total when the current work is finished is thus 152 animations.

I have just started work on a branching solo lewd scene, and I will spend next week animating it and making any renders needed for it. I expect to finish all animations from that scene and continue working on static renders before next Friday.

Poll news
In this week's 2D art poll, the results of the tiered polls were split.

After tallying the votes, the winning combination was

  • Girl: Lily
  • Position: Her on top
  • Environment: Beach
I'll order a 2D wallpaper and a 2D animation and include them in episode 9.

Have a nice weekend

Tell DPC that I am going to play The Sims 4 and create my own Zoey :love: and several girls from the game for Zoey to fuck them all :devilish: and I will also create an MC to have his relationship with Chad and Troy :love:

:coffee: Updated BigTable™ with the recent informations.
SmoothButter!

  • By DPC numbers, his daily posing ratio are ≈42.8 renders and 2.71 animations.
    • Theoretically, the posing could be done in 47 days for renders and 41 days for animations.
    • with about 2000 more renders and 110 animations to produce by DPC estimate.
  • As now, September release (26-28 weeks) is a possible window. I'm getting a bit more optimist.

Bella's flashback was really awful....
Yep, easily the worst flashback in the game for me, it didn't even gave us a single clue into who James is, just that Bella used to work at some random ass library before B&R and was probably fired from there. With that shitty prologue and the first Bella date I almost flipped my table, thank god for the wholesome haircut and the second date...

My favourite was the Burke family one, it didn't give away too much, but it gave just enough. And Jade's reaction is fun to watch as well :Kappa:

We don't know for sure if Jade's one is a flashback, likely but not sure

Okay, but I must ask you share the assets when done. Do your best to recreate the various houses as well. I want to see virtua-Zoey taking it to Bella in the sauna.
