Hello comrades! sorry for my constant disappearance in the last months, i had some severe issues with my hardware,
DELAYS OCCURRED DURING THE LAST MONTHS
to don't make it really long, i brought a whole new PC in the early days of February with a way more powerful hardware, to be more precise, Ryzen 7 3700xm, new PSU 700w, RTX 3070, and extra components like CPU cooler and a new pc Case
during the production of the goats, the computer started an series of issues related of screen display (constant artifacts and screen shut downs) and all aimed to the NEW gpu was causing problems, so in March 9 the RTX was sended back to the place where i brought for further investigations on the issue , and used the 1050 TI what i had to work normally since it seemed to be unaffected, but one week later the artifacts came back,
with an lack of friends with other components nearby i had to track down the root of the issue, even changing the Motherboard with no result, and discarting PSU related issue,
the problems was really frequent and dont allowed me to even use blender or SFM easily, causing the screen to shut down, fourtenly, somebody pointed out the Screen itself and i bought an new one the past week and it efectlybly seems the monitor was causing all the problems, however i received a message from the GPU local support and they found an issue on the RTX gpu, i didn't receive more details since it was the friday at night when i see it and reply, so MAYBE was the GPU who busted the monitor
so until the past week i had DOZENS of problems and headaches related to my display and of course affecting me the work rate, the worst thing was mostly related of complete lack of Roots of the issue, since all aimed something related to the PC internal components like and BAD gpu or issues in the PSU, i had like 3 pc technical friends who tried to help me in the process with no clue of what component was causing issues,
the monitor was catched when i was streaming and my computer was glitching so bad, however the people who watched me in the stream still able to see my computer work or play normally, this issue was previously pointed out in the display ports of the RTX when it was "faulty" but the 1050 was more than combat proven so it wasn't the display ports from the GPU ,
So someone pointed the Screen as an faulty component, (thanks quinix) this was confirmed when i brought an new Screen an made both work at same time, resulting in the old one glitching while the new one work flawless,
Also the Distribuitor confirming what the GPU was faulty was suspicious unless it actually the GPU fried the Monitor, welp the worst case scenario will be an refound since it now cost the twice what it costed in that time D:
anyways, practically that summarises the inconvenients of the last months and why most my current projects are really slow, also too was worsened by some issues related to my sleep (what they were kinda often honestly) but now it wasn't just related to my energy too was related wherever my hardware wanted to work too.
all these upgrades was made intentionally to improve in the blender native products, and i take some of the time of my vacations during the first weeks of febraury to learn in depth the "Rigging,sculpting and Rendering basics" to be implemented, some of these results can be seen in this poster of Holly made during an exaustive week of researching the previous topics

taking advantage of the almighty 3070 to render way faster cycles and of course the preview fast speed of the AI nodes of it made an world of difference, i wisht have it back soon :(
GOATS
Since the past week i was able to do some progress on the goats
but still too much to do yet
bodies are 95% functionals and now 5% lefth are for creating flexes for specific future outfits, i will consider adding asriel cloths for both sexes, and the armor as requested by the founder, i hope some friend help me to craft the cloths for casuals, meawhile the remaining its adding extra hair props(just few) and some casual clothings and Armor
i really hope finish it in the first days of may!
about the pledges to compensate it, will be distributed to all patrons who pledge since february,
