Through the Sandstorm - Playblast (Patreon)

Here's another scene Disregard has animated for the intro sequence of Encounter 3!

Since late July I've also been hard at work animating again and have started working on the lengthy Chloé meeting sequence. The scenes have been split up between me and Alex to optimize progression. I'll have to see when we're ready to show the first previews of the scenes with Chloe, but I'm assuming that next month we should be far enough into it present the first scenes where she interacts with Space Hero. (:

Rendering-wise, about three shots from the intro are currently finalized! The intro is quite a bit longer than in the previous animations, but it does serve a certain pace, as the episode is supposed to slowly build up throughout the meeting and the actual rooftop battle.

I went the extra mile and gave his sleeves the fancy looking cotton/fuzzy shader as well, which makes them look quite fancy from closer angles. It's pretty hard to see from these small videos, but there are a couple more shots with him coming up where the effect is a bit more prominent.

Next playblast should be at the end of the month, then in September we should see the first playblasts involving Chloé as well! (:
