Sunday Progress Report (Patreon)

EDIT: High Frame Rate upscale version of the Alt angle has been added to the post ^_^

Welcome one and all to the Sunday progress report

The fluid sim is finished, included is an alt angle where you get to see the tiger's expression >:3. The Executive Producers were polled and no one had anything bad to say about it, so this is the base settings that'll get used in future animations.

Something not covered before is the time it takes to tweak the sim clocking in at 40mins from settings change to to reviewing results. I think the sim is within the 'diminishing returns' area and time is better spent elsewhere. There is always room for improvements and further work can be done on the base setup once better hardware happens and revision time decreases.

Looking at the next big animation and the 'mechanics' involved the tiger has been swapped for the yeen, so it's going to be the yeen and the fox for this one, this gives me a lot more leeway in the way they can ...interact :D 

After the comments from Diesel Weasel about the raccoons legs the anatomy texts came out, when comparing them to the characters it became apparent there are some issues that need correcting along with some small things I'd really like to look better, doubly so because of gearing up for the big animation. The remaining time this week post simulation was spent refining and rebuilding the Fox who's almost back up to animation ready. and the Yeen (who is currently having his paw beans refined), this all serves as a nice warm up for working on the raccoon.

I asked for the executive producers to choose my topic of focus for this week, due to it being a 3 way tie instead of flipping a coin, I thought I'd throw it open to all of you as a one off poll it'll run till this time tomorrow and decide what I get up to during the week, EPs are welcome to vote in this poll too ^_^ (poll will be posted shortly after this report)
