Kobold egg laying fluids (Patreon)

I've been baking fluids today (and yesterday a bit as well) and it's been a slow process as fluids usually are... I could vent about it for forever.

The jiggle is pretty much finalized though, which is good! I also spent awhile getting the couch mesh to deform to her body. I didn't re-use the stuff from the kobold topping animation, where the camera imp is on the couch because the couch deformation is a bit more extreme. But it's the same idea- take a chunk of the couch, make a deformation cage, shrink wrap it to a proxy version of the character and give the couch an armature with some shrink wrapping bones.

 I apologize it's taking a bit, this is the worst part of the process sadly. It's a cycle of tweaking, bake, do something else for 10 or more minutes (if possible), make a tiny change, bake it, wait again, change something, wait, bake, etc... 

In the preview you can see a couple of the fluids, but right now I'm at about the second egg insertion.

There's no voice acting yet just yet. I haven't gotten anything back from Princess Lil. She told me she was struggling with motivation- a feeling I've known all too well... I told her to take her time! She does such a great job, it's absolutely worth the wait.

Worst case, if I have the fluids and sound done before I can do the voice acting, I'll just render and release that and add the voice/animate the lip-sync later. The nice thing about this particular animation is that her head is off screen most of the time, so there isn't a ton of lip-sync to do. And, I would only have to re-render the frames where her mouth would be animated.

Also, I want to say thanks to everyone for being so supportive. Sometimes I don't respond to a comment or it takes me a bit to respond to message, but I get overwhelmed by all of it some times and I procrastinate on responding. It's not even like it's an unmanageable deluge of things to respond to, but I've just become a lot less talkative. 2021 was a rough year, like I was overloading classes for most if it and working retail and it was just a nightmare. I'm still trying to get over that burn out.

I've been feeling better, slowly, but compared to November (around the time I graduated and shortly after I quit Walmart) I'm in a much better place. I'm extremely grateful to everyone for your unbelievable support! To me, this isn't just 3d lewd, it's healing (as cheesy as it might sound). I can't thank you all enough.

I'm going to get to bed- tomorrow will be full of fluid sims.
