Well the animation is now done, save for the audio, which I'm working on now. I've got a few recordings and laid down several foley tracks and will be working on this for the rest of the month. My aim is to have an upload with the audio, and also do edits and have audio for all the individual loops so there is a single post to get the lot. I want to get this done and uploaded by the end of the month.
I think I've honed in on Robin's look now, have included some stills where I'm trying to 1:1 poses. Still has fur interpenetrating the clothing and I'll be looking to set something up where I can swap between fur styles for when he's not wearing things so he can be a bit more fluff in places when au natural.
Personal medical stuff. (skip if you don't want a downer) Been having a bit of a bad time with energy levels, I've been on iron supplements for the last few months that seemed to help. However recently I've had low energy again, my iron was checked and that's fine. So back to no clue what to do about it. For reference, when it gets bad I don't even have the energy to play video games, all I'm able to do is sit and passively watch content. In rough order of concentration needed from most to least it's Animation - Audio editing - Audio recording - rigging/tooling code/simulation - Sculpting. My best days go towards Animation, and this is also why sometimes I look like I'm spending time on other things. I try to load balance and do what I can when I can.
Know this, doing this artistic/tech endeavor is the most fulfilled I've ever felt. I've found something that people really like and that I can do. I enjoy doing it, the combination of challenges really makes my brain fizz. I just wish that my health didn't get in the way so much so I could do it more consistently.
I'm really appreciative of all of you that put up with me being the way I am so I can continue to make art :)

My lack of energy and 'spacing out' all started when I got covid, been on this fun little ride ever since. Those two adding to my already existing bouts of depression, and any of them can trigger at any time, and I have no idea how long they will last. I try not to dwell on it. When I'm deep in a bad spell I hold on to the idea that I won't be at that level forever and I just need to wait it out. Its nice to hear the lengths I go to to make the characters is appreciated. Thank you for your kind words.

I know the feeling of low energy levels. Could be seasonal depression, but I'm not a doctor. Really proud of ya, and always happy to see your work! Your models are always full of detail many others don't do! Lots of love <3
