Case Log #26 Ch5
Alright! This week I have decided to write the log a little earlier in the day, as to not just state the facts, but also expand on the current state of the project. Sounds like a daunting task? I live for daunting tasks...well, maybe not daunting exactly. More like, fun tasks. I live for those.
So today I will finish scene 13. I smile when I write that, knowing my history of optimism. Let's just say, this time I'm certain (or at least fairly certain) that I will pull it off. We are 1,311 renders into chapter 5. There is probably another 20 left of scene 13. How hard can that be? I'm very happy with the look of this scene. It's not exactly a hard space to light, and I tend to do quite a bit of lighting and sometimes that becomes a liability rather than an asset. Not feeling that this time.
You might wonder what the hell Pecker is wearing, well these are newly borrowed threads in anticipation of the date with Gabrielle. See, he can be grownup-ish. Oh, you were looking at the gun. That, I'm afraid, will remain a mystery until the chapter release.
On to some poll business. Looks like the majority of you actually like the ramblings of a mad developer. I would have bet money on the opposite. As not to post too many nonsensical-no-render posts here, I will limit myself to one a week. These Pocket Diary posts will be public (mostly because the discord posts are just that), and if I'm very active I will distil the content a bit.
Second poll was also a bit of a surprise. I have one idea that I was kicking around, but maybe you fine people would like to have a say in the story that will be the interstitial episode. Once I have a few thoughts on what this short crime can be, I'll poll it here and you can pick which idea you like the most. It will likely be one extended chapter long and maybe serve as a prologue to case number 2. This poll likely won't be up until much closer to chapter 10.
Now I will get back to rendering so I can prove that once in a while I actually gauge these things correctly.
Cheers !
ps. It would seem that Patreon has hidden the nude collection. I have a ticket in but haven't heard anything from the fine people at Patreon. If this continues, I will simply make another collection called "Special Renders". Certainly some automated b.s. that got triggered.
