Hokay, so here’s the info on what this whole MAWrestling this is about:

• It’s going to be a comic

• It will feature cinematic-style panels at 1080p resolution per panel, meaning a full page is going to be around 3,300 pixels in height

• Because of this ambition, each render takes significantly more time, both for rendering and post-process editing/fixing, which is why it’s been so much more time consuming than the smaller renders I’ve been posting lately

• Story/Dialogue pages will be in three-panel cinematic widescreen / Wrestling pages will feature more traditional comic page splits, with certain scenes being cinematic widescreen or full page (meaning potential poster sized 1920x6600renders)

• I’ve been optimizing fur (which takes the longest time to render) in order to make each render faster, but the time-to-quality ratio is something I’ve been struggling with

• This is very likely going to be the project that I open a Patreon for (full resolution there, half resolution here, smallest minimum donation is all that will be required for full resolution comic pages and the separate, wallpaper-sized, dialogue-free panels)

With all that typed, I hope I haven’t disappointed anyone too much; I want to see some musclebound anthropomorphs wrestling just as much as anyone! But I also have a personal ambition to deliver the absolute best quality product I’m capable of, as I made the transition from “renders as a hobby” to “renders as a business”. At this point, I’ve been doing them long enough to feel confident that I can pull it off, but with everything going on in my busy personal, professional and military life, and with there only being 24 hours in a day, there’s only so much I can do. HOWEVER, here’s what I CAN do:

SERIES: Jungle Jam

• Ganzorig, the space-traveling freelancer, finds himself captured on a jungle planet, where slave trade and arena fights are held for advertisement and entertainment. He encounters an ape-like prisoner, and the two conspire to escape, eventually being aided by an blue-skinned, undercover galactic investigator

• This series be done in the same format as the MAWrestling project, but at half-resolution; a trial run of the new comic format, essentially

• Will be posted in full to FurAffinity and DeviantArt

Hopefully that’ll be enough to tide folks (including me!) over. Remember that each render I do is experimentation just as much as it is entertainment, so as I improve my technique with this Ganzorig series, hopefully I’ll be prepared to build a cohesive and consistent MAWrestling series!
