Here ya go!  Friday as promised!  (Check attachments for PDF Download)

...Sometime in the EST.  

...11:40 something PM.

Couple of experiments with this one.

First off, higher resolution!  (3840 x 2160, up from 1920 x 1080)  Things were looking grainy in the old chapters, especially when downsized to thumbnails for some reason.  Let's see how much of an improvement this is.

Secondly, new scene effect settings.  It's subtle, but the ambient occlusion was made darker and sharper.  I had it set to be pretty soft before because it went well with the peachy pastel colour aesthetic.  This takes away a bit from that but, and this is important, it makes cleavage more noticeable.

Next, I tried to zoom this chapter out in a day.  Right now it takes me 5-6 hours of real work to go from nothing to a chapter, plus time spent making new character models, with most of that time going into posing.  Each panel averages 10 minutes.  Some panels take no time at all.  Others take upwards of 20 minutes as I fidget to get things just right.  I...  Did not work particularly fast with this chapter...  But I did set up a few templates for editing which should cut down on time and tedium.  With experience, I think I'll get better at rushing out simple poses.  I'd still want to work patiently and playfully with the super special renders.

Also, slightly smaller speech bubbles.  Watched an internet video that recommended it.  I think it looks better.

Lastly, I'm debating whether or not I should drop the chapter/song/title/lyrics gimmick, where I try to find a song with two separate meanings between the title and lyrics that relate to the chapter.  I'm just not sure what it adds.  If one of you guys think it should stay, lemme know and I'll keep it.  Otherwise, it's a good time to drop it before people come to expect it.

Thinking I'll do an extra Patreon exclusive Side-Story next.

That's a nicely fitted hole in the stall, huh?
