Hard drive crash (+animation / 0:58 Minutes) (Patreon)
Content
Those of you, who read my latest WIP-posts, already know, I had a minor hard drive crash two weeks ago, which corrupted some files including lost work of about 10-15 hours on The Carnal Eve. Of course I copied all the remaining files to another hard disk partition to be safe, in case the hard drive will finally shut down.
And well, it did two days ago. Since I secured all the data before, I wasn' really shocked...till I noticed the probably dumpest thing I ever did on a PC. The partition I used for my backup was part of the broken hard drive as well!
Long story short: I lost all, absolutely all SFM files and stuff related to it. I even lost my Logo and Intro-Animation.
Before you panic, of course I have an online backup for most of my animation-projects (all recent once, like The Carnal Eve), but I lost most of my old project files, including my progess on The Forgotten Rituals, which the animation above was part of.
A friend of mine luckily found an old render of this animation, so I am at least able to upload this version of the animation here:

Since the project files are lost, I will never be able to finish this pose. Since it was one of my favorites, it really kinda hurts me. :-(
To bring me back on the road, I'll publish some new stuff tomorrow.
God, I'll never forgive me that!
