Progress 17.04.2023

 

Yay... it's Monday. Totally can feel the enthusiasm there.

I'm rendering update 30. Not that surprising, I reckon. It's a bit slow at the moment, lots of people to posed and black color. I like black, blue, certain greens, and a few shades of red, but positioning two black surfaces together is sometimes tricky with Daz's default settings.

As for writing, it's unsurprisingly on update 34. I'll continue writing after today's render quota or during the rendering. It depends on how it goes.

And now... since people have had the chance to play 28... I can give some renders from 29 (and 30).

This is from 29... I wonder what is happening when Nadia and Natalie are ordering the main character to leave...

And this is right at the start of update 30, morning discussions. See what I mean about the black color? Lot's of it in the image. And because of how black interacts with light, it's easy to have the characters floating despite seemingly putting them in contact with the surface.

Man, there is a lot to talk about this chain... why do I have a feeling that I need to make about 50 behind-the-scenes posts to explain a lot of things? Anyway. There is a difference in power between people and what kind of magic they are using. The color of magic circles and other effects indicate what type of magic the person is casting. At the start of the image sequences, the MC was using fire magic, intending to summon a fire elemental, but something went wrong. The demon, in turn, is banished with blood magic. Although, alongside demonic and necromancy, it is one of the forbidden schools of magic in the civilized world.

I was going to save this image for Friday, but... I'll make a portrait of the character I've introduced then. And something more. Anyway. They will watch until the main character wakes up and know he isn't under demonic influence. If he would be... well, he wouldn't live long after that.
