"Sam's Facehugger Fetish" WIP Update 04

Hey folks!

This is the final WIP update for the scene.  Since this is going to be a long post.  I'll provide a TLDR at the end.

My voice actress is picked out.  She'll get her VA Cut and the Inner Monologue script this afternoon.  Once she's done, I'll work on a bit of polish, then render it.  My goal is to have the scene released before the end of February.  Below is a WIP clip that I think you guys will enjoy.

As much as I enjoyed making this scene, the model's restrictions in SFM became quite irritating.  A 3 minute facehuggin' facehugger scene with no visible neck oviposition feels "off-brand".  And I apologize in advance for that lack of a feature in this scene.  

To be frank, I'm tired of being limited to what models can and can't do in Source Filmmaker.  The software has been a remarkable introduction to animation, and I'll always be appreciative of that.  But it's time to move on.  Some of you want realistic boob huggers.  Some of you want visible egg shapes trailing inside the female model during oviposition.  Some of you want to see facehuggers with your favorite female characters, who don't have SFM models.

After the Samsung Sam scene is released, my primary focus will be to learn Blender.  This "next level" animation software will provide me with limitless options.  I've already announced to my Prowling and Pouncing Facehuggers that bonus footage will feature practice scenes made in Blender.  Characters and Hugger positions are still chosen by them to maintain the theme of Facehugger Friday.

So what does that mean for what's next release-wise?  I will be opening up private commissions on Friday and I'll be using Source Filmmaker to fulfill them (until I'm comfortable enough in Blender).  Commissions will be "first come, first serve" from the time commissions are announced.  Please don't PM me with a commission request just yet.  Please wait until after the announcement post.  Before you request a specific female character, please ensure that they exist on SFMLab first.  I recommend joining my Discord server if you want to be alerted when the announcement is posted.  Lastly, all commissions (once fulfilled) would be public releases.

Because the commission announcement will be made so late in the month, those who are Pouncing Facehuggers in February will have their 10% discount honored in March if they choose to drop down a tier at the end of the month.

TLDR: Final WIP update.  Release by the end of the weekend.  Next task is to learn Blender.  Commission announcement on Friday.
