Thank you to everyone who cast their votes! It appears that the winner for this month is Cassie Cage from Mortal Kombat 11.
Skin Texture
I've been working on a new skin texture for my characters, which I've been testing for a while. I'm planning to use it with Cassie. However, it doesn't include blood or dirt overlays, as I believe many people rarely use them. Each of those overlays had its own Principled BSDF shader, which I think increases render times. So, I'm probably just going to stop using them all together.
Additionally, I've developed a new workflow for the Futa models. I won't be using Nyl's dick anymore, I'll just use futalicious with my own custom sculpt. This is more streamlined because futalicious is designed to seamlessly blend with the skin without any seams. The drawback of this method is I have to basically redo the model twice whereas before I just grafted the dick onto an already finished model.
Removing Crutch's
Also, I aim to reduce my reliance on other people's work as a crutch because using them exclusively won't help me learn the correct techniques. For example, the shader that I've been using for a while was Rigid3D's shader but with addons on top. The one exception I'll likely make is for MustardUi, as it provides all the necessary tools to set everything up efficiently. If you've been following me for a while, you know I've had my own Ui at some point, but it had a crashing issue, and I don't see the point in trying to remake something that already exists in this context.
Conclusion
In conclusion, that's the plan for Cassie Cage. Once again, I want to express my gratitude to everyone who voted and continues to support me. Without your support, I wouldn't have the opportunity to learn and grow in this field that I'm passionate about. I truly love what I do, and I can't imagine pursuing any other path.
