[January 2019] FabPharma Member's Briefing (Patreon)

Hello everyone!

The year's off to a fun, hectic start already, I'm digging it :D

Sorry I've been laying low since we finished Denise's story creation event, to be honest it was pretty draining, although lots of fun nonetheless. I'm hoping you all had fun participating and helping craft the upcoming issue for Plastic Obsession, it's definitely going to be a big one, if not the biggest so far, of the PO issues. Jam packed with all the different scenery Cami and Denise will be traversing, as well as a rather interesting turn of events for our plastic-obsessed protagonist, PO # 005 is gonna be pretty wild!

I've gathered all the assets I want for production, as well as beginning to set stuff up to really get cracking in February (for a small sneak peek, Board Members should make sure to check the behind the scenes files to check out Denise and Cami in the dresses they'll be sporting for their big night out!), so work on PO # 005 will be a big part of what's coming up in February.

Asides from the writing marathon we did earlier this month, January's been all about testing stuff out and preparing loadouts and assets for what's coming up. As you can see in the header image, I'm pretty proud to re-introduce FabPharma's favorite (and explosively endowed) psychotherapist, Fuki Yamato! 

I spent a lot of time reworking Fuki, as  she's going to be playing a rather pivotal role in both Cali and Hitome's development throughout Welcome to Unreality (as well as developing quite a bit herself!), so she definitely was due for an update.

On to the rest of this month's content, it's very much centered around testing stuff through the mini image sets. Lots more clothing simulation, updated material work, and some other techniques that are becoming staples to new pieces. One thing I'm still wrestling with is making eyes pop as much as I want them to (this time around I think Cali's eyes came out best in her set, if you can ignore the expansion long enough to notice that is ^^; ).

Asides this stuff, you'll notice I'm rolling out an updated aesthetic designwise that's based a lot more on FabPharma's techy look and feel, hope you all enjoy the new look I've been playing around :)

In closing, as usual I'd like to shoot you guys some huge thanks for the support and participation, this year's looking to be pretty exciting (not to mention titillating) as the pieces continue falling into place in the ever-evolving FabPharma storyline.

And so, on to February!
