The Outlander: Update #2 - Hadiya & Estimates

Added 2021-04-11 18:36:38 +0000 UTC

Welcome back everyone, it's time for an update on my latest project! Up top is finally a look at our dear friend Hadiya! The gif is pretty grainy and run at a low framerate like last time, but the final quality will of course match that of Checkup Blues!

Progress has been beyond my expectations since I last talked to you, and from where I stand it is certain that the final lenght of the animation will be between 9 and 10 minutes. So far I've rendered just over 3 minutes at full quality, leaving a maximum of 7 minutes to render. As usual, rendering will be what takes the longest to finish. I think it might speed up a bit due to certain changes along the story (characters coming and going, number of characters on screen at once, etc.), so It'll be interesting to see how long this actually takes to render. Even with this much left to churn through, I am fairly confident now that I can promise you a release by the end of august at the very latest. This whole thing is mostly under control now, so any delays would have to be caused by external real life stuff *knocks on wood*.

I won't really talk much more about the project today, as I'm pretty much still in the zone and trying to take maximum advantage of it, but I do want to give a look into my updated workflow soon, hopefully next time when things settle down a bit.

Have I mentioned how delightfully good you all are at just letting me do my thing? Thank you again for your patience and good faith!
