Mai Piledriver animated WIP/Piledriver overlays (Patreon)
Content
So I've been messing around with the piledriver/mating press anim for Mai over the past few days trying to improve upon it from previous versions. It's been kind of tough for me to do, mostly because so much of it is obscured, especially with the sprite brian uses. I wanted to do something a bit less static, but a lot of my efforts flopped because of this. It's hard to convey much when most of the sprite isn't visible.
Take this as an example. There's a very small portion of the sprite you can actually see here. Granted you can see more with transparency on, but there isn't much sense of depth.
Compare that to say, something like this:
Basically, the impression I got was the more you can see, the better. (art courtesy of Krekk0v btw, or so my detective work says)
looking at this and how a lot of other artists draw the position, I tried to take a different approach and use an overlay so parts of the sprite are drawn over brian
Not a massive step up, but I do think it looks better, and doing this gave the added bonus of making the penetration look a bit smoother as the overlain lady bits ensure his member is contained within their walls. It's subtle, but if you look at the gif of Es below, you can see that it looks slightly off center compared to the above.
Anyway, definitely still needs tweaks. I basically had to guess on the dimensions since I was trying to overlay on a sprite that's so much smaller than it outside of the game, which is why there are some oddities you can see, especially near his feet where parts of her butt suddenly vanish.
Next step is finally fixing that bug with victim's hair/head poking through brians torso as seen above, as well as additional tweaks to mai's mating press anim.
The Mai early release will be out sometime next week before the 31st, It includes the basic grope, Doggy, and Piledriver atm but I might be able to add at least some variations before then. There will also be a small update for brian you'll need for her to work and the shiki update as well coming out the same day.
Thanks for your support!
