update + early previews & rolling out some content extras

Hey all, extremely sorry things have been a bit slow. I was hoping to get an animation wrapped up behind the scenes and skip another boring text update by just posting it here when it was finished, though I'm still waiting on some audio and the lineup of material I had prepared got thrown off balance. The post will have some older work-in-progress gifs attached to it and links to extra videos where applicable.

For starters: I wanted to knock out a few shorter term videos to cover more variety after how long Ocean Eyes pt. 1 took in the process, basically projects with lower scope and quicker turnout time in a "plan less, animate more" approach. And to be clear Ocean eyes pt. 2 is still upcoming but I was honestly feeling pretty resentful towards my work and post frequency and needed a change of scenery.

I brought on a voice actress for an animation that was supposed to be released early in the month and we agreed on a price and recording date - only I haven't heard back in a little over two weeks. I've given it enough wait and have since then recast the role which should hopefully be arriving within the week (scratch that: actually arrived as I was typing!)

My backup animation (not shown) also had VA availability complications, and while substituting them is possible I just think the performances are so fun and close to the real deal that I'd prefer it being a last resort if I can... so that was temporarily shelved.

Since then I've been trying to spruce up a few more drafts and see what had potential to bring forward quickly. A few scene attempts got scrapped or are being redone, one lost in a sudden computer shutdown too, but this one's pretty nice:

Lastly I was planning to get a sort-of mega post with the outgoing extras and images instead of an early drop, but here's two extras that are available in 1080p/4K right now:

A bird bath for boob day: Folder

And an extra for the previous Bunker [B]low animation instead of an image: Folder

Anyways this post is pretty text heavy enough so I'll leave it at that for now. In hindsight I should've had an update post made earlier to keep everyone better informed so once again I apologize if things didn't look nearly as active as they should. I always prefer to let the animations talk instead of having me make boring text posts like these, so. Things are always cooking and as always I appreciate your continued support, cheers for reading to the end. :)

(Also a quick by the way: my previous Ryza video is now in VR up to 8K 120fps now - but I'll have a separate post for that later too. Check it out right now if you'd like!)
