May (Patreon)

Just an occasional text update to hint the plans for May! First off, Star Wars day is in two days, so here's a reminder! <:

Oh boy! Thanks to all patrons for their incredible ongoing support! It's an enourmous help, especially considered that I recently needed to invest into rather expensive hardware that is a bit more convenient for travel. To my own surprise I ended up getting a top tier laptop that's powerful enough to actually wipe the floor with my slightly aged Intel Xeon based workstation. While I'm all for desktops, getting a beefy laptop became a necessity due to the travelling that is related to my first job. This way I can do so without falling behind in my Patreon schedule here.

Speaking of which, the plan for this month is to focus entirely on the new animation and hopefully make enough progress to show a decent bunch of playblasts and WIP materials later on. Due to the new Geforce 10 series GPU in this laptop I'll be able to further bump up the visuals, which already could be seen in the recently posted mini animation that featured highly detailed character lighting. I might bring in rain to this new RAADD animation, which always makes for a visual treat, given the idea doesn't end up as too ambitious in the end!

Until then, stay tuned!
