Astra - Luna Live2D Reference + Blush Makeup Poll (Patreon)

Hello Patrons,

Hop everyone is having a great Monday so far!! Just here to share some information on what we have been up to in March. ;^)

We've moved on to working on Live2D models and first up is Luna! Our artist Sunimu has created the layered model (this takes a very long time since we have to make all the moving pieces to be used in the Live2D animation process) and is now working on alternative outfits for her. Please check out Luna's default outfit and formal dress designs!:

We are spending extra time per model to make them more detailed and on the backend have more art layers to allow for more intricate rigging. For at least the next month, we'll be focusing on Live2D layered models since we are ramping up a queue of tasks for our Live2D animator to do! I'll share more on this when we have some WIP.

Next on the list is that we are thinking about adding a "blush" makeup to our characters. One of the things that felt a bit off is that we put the blush as a separate layer which only got used in specific instances when in reality blush makeup is quite common. You can take a look at the subtle difference here on the right, check out her cheeks:

This won't be "replacing" when the character blushes in a scene since it would be a layer on top just like most anime. Here is an example of blush makeup with a blush layering on top (intensity 1 shown, we have 3 intensities in game):

I think the blush make up is subtle but definitely packs an impact in making the waifu look even cuter! As always, please feel free to vote for your preference below. ;^)

That is all for now, thank you so much for your support!! <3
