[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XXII

Greetings,

it's nearly done. Approximate 30 dialogue images left and 1 animation to render. So I'm pretty sure I'll finish rendering for the dialogue this week. After that I need a few location shots, some secrets and the 4K Render reward.&n...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XXI

Greetings,

I've continued to work on the last scene and I'm more than half way through I think. The most time consuming at the moment is posing the animations in order to prevent clipping and jittering. I had more poses for animations planed...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XX

Greetings,

first of I want to wish you all a happy new year. On the project side I underestimated the workload that I need to do for the last scene and therefore I doubt there will be an alpha version even within the next week. But that's wh...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XIX

Greetings,

the update is slowly approaching the finishing line. I'm on the last scene now. I don't think I'll be able to make an alpha release build this week. For this the scene is to long. But I'm pretty sure early in January I'll have a b...

Happy Holidays

Greetings,

I hope you have a good time and can enjoy the holidays as much as you can.

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XVIII

Greetings,

well it's the time at the end of the year where everything is a bit more hectic in work and private life so I couldn't do as much as I want. However, I still did some progress render-wise. I think I'm halfway through with one of t...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XVII

Greetings,

nothing much to say this week. Rendering was quite smooth I think. I finished another scene and now "only" 2 scenes are left.

I haven't really created any spoiler free image this week. But I also worked a bit on the procedur...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XVI

Greetings,

the render progress was a bit slower this week for a few reasons. One is private and work life and the other is that I adapted my shaders to the new octane render release which took some time. More on that below. So there are 3 sc...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XV

Greetings,

had a bit more time this week than usually so I could do pretty good progress on the render front. Could finish a few smaller scenes and started new ones.

I have 4 more bigger scenes to do. 2 of them are pretty big / longer ...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XIV

Greetings,

the increase in the render count this week isn't as high as I would like it to be but I created and finished another location.

Bathroom environment

I wanted to create a specific scene / pay homage to a...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XIII

Greetings,

this will be a rather short update but I hope the next one will be a bit longer again. I finished rendering some more scenes but haven't tackled the hot ones yet. And presumable I won't start with them next week as I still have a ...

[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update XII

Greetings,

this will be a somewhat shorter update I think. The sauna is finished and I'm quite happy with it. As always I would like to add more details, but this will do for now.

I also did more dialogue rendering for other scenes and...

4K Render Reward - Selene in 'Mirrors Edge'

Greetings,

there it is. Had a blast creating it. It might not be perfect but I think it does catch the style of its role model.

Some minor details about the image itself. The environment is created through kit-bashing and some of my ow...
