Update and Plans
Posted a year agoX
How have you all been?
A year has passed since I last posted a Journal here on FA.
As already mentioned, a proper apology is on the way, but I'm not here to repeat myself.
That means, yes, more content and animations, but also a good investment of effort and time.
I've been lurking in the scene for a couple months already, brushing the rust off of my skills thanks to a few opportunities I had the pleasure to work on.
It helped me a lot, not only to regain lost passion and interest into working in 3D, but also to make plans about how to move from now on.
There will be a few changes and additions.
First of all I want to make it easier for people to interact with me, and although I'm not used to it, I think it's time for me to set up my own Discord Server.
It will be easier for me to manage progress and address feedbacks and suggestions within one unique environment.
I'm also planning to stream from time to time, provided my connection will be strong enough.
So that's a thing.
Secondly, I would really like to be able to post everything publicly from now on.
I understand that this might hurt my income a lot, but I've grown to care much more for everyone to enjoy my content freely rather than give up a Burger for it.
Those who are willing to show their support, and have the opporunity, can still do it through my Patreon, from which they'll get access to the Discord Server.
On top of that, to prevent me from falling too far behind with my finances, I'll be going heavy on commissions.
So, as of today, commission are officially open again!
This round I decided to provide not only Renders and Animations, but also Edits and Rigs, so if you're interested in grabbing a slot, you can find all the info you need in the footer.
For those of you who didn't have the chance to talk to me, you may need to know that it's not easy for me to find a standard job due to health complications.
For this reason, I can't really afford to take this as a hobby, as much as I'd like to, as I don't have a stable source of income.
This was, and still is, one of the very few things I can, and really want to do.
Hopefully this second part of my journey as an artist will be as amazing as the first one, for which I'm still, and forever be, extremely grateful...
Lastly, I'll be putting a hold on the Patreon Polls.
I'd like to implement something similar within my Discord Server in the future, so don't worry about it not be a thing anymore.
And that's it!
Thank you so much for reading this far, if you've made it.
You are a legend.
Greetings legends,

X1 Slot Available! [CLOSED]
Posted 2 years agoX
As anticipated, I'm finally opening slots for Commissions!
Since it's my first time dealing with it, I'll make only 1 slot available and see how it goes.
I'll try my best to understand the image and the intentions behind the provided description, but I cannot guarantee the result will be exactly as intended. For this reason I'll update my progress before any big step in the process.
If something doesn't feel quite right, that's the time to tell me. Any moment later than that it might become a very big issue or just not worth to fix anymore.
I'll try to answer back to everyone but since it's just one slot I expect this to be closed pretty soon...
In case you don't get any answer from me, consider this slot taken.
Thank you in advance! ~ 💕
Gratefully,
- Raith

Male only Monsters, apologies.
You can choose up to 3 Monsters from MHW / MHWI.
50 EUR per Monster (75 EUR if it has Wings).
You can personalize your Monster "attributes" with a reference from the BD List.

There is clearly no need to say this, but obviously refunds are not an option.
With the purpose of saving time, please PM me your idea from the first message.
I appreciate your interest, really, but that alone isn't enough to reserve the slot.

Update and Plans ~ 📓
Posted 3 years agoX
I'd like to make a quick update for those of you who are interested in my situation.
First of all I need to apologize for not being as present as I would have liked to these past few months.
I'm genuinely sorry...
Most of my time was taken by a bunch of unexpected events...
My plans got inevitably delayed, and eventually, some of them, got lost in time.
It's not like I was completely busy for months, of course I managed to find a few hours, or days, which I gladly spent in creating new art to share.
However, to be able to release something enjoyable, without losing quality, in a reasonable amount of time, I had to sacrifice length and complexity.
In addition to this, all the big projects I had to work on seemed like a very big deal for my volatile mind, I had to put them on hold.
Many of you understood the situation and kept supporting me with a heartwarming kindness, others have rightly expressed their disappoint, which I completely share btw.
So what am I trying to convey?
The main reason is to inform you that it all seems to be settling down, finally!
I have way more time and inspiration I'm craving to work on something!
I've got new plans, new models, new knowledge... a very large amount of lewdness...
Some of the most useful ingredients I could ask for!
In the near future I'll make a big update about a couple of things I really want to realize: Polls and Requests.
But for now, this has to do... ~
I have to give credit to a couple friend I met in this journey who were incredibly supportive, helpful and patient in many different situation:
Thank you
, 
and 
!
Also a special thanks to someone who was always there, no matter the time, no matter the mood, no matter the situation.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart

Update and Plans ~ 📓
Posted 3 years agoX
It's been a while since I posted something here.
So here we are, annoying you again with a wall of text! ~ 💖
Jokes aside there are a couple of things I'd like to put on digital paper.
A few things happened during this month and I'm finally finding the means to get a hold of everything.
It has not been the productive month I would have liked it to be, I do apologize deeply for that.
I had to fight against a bunch of different problems I naively underestimated.
Then they came and oh boy...
However, I'm emerging from this tunnel, slowly but steadily, with much more inspiration than before, mainly thanks to the unbelievable support I received...
I'll never get tired of saying it: you are legends. Every. Single. One. Of .You.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart... ~ 💖
First of all I wanted to share with you my Trello Roadmap!
It's poorly written, it's a bit chaotic, there's still very little content, but it's something.
Thanks to this, who's interested, would be able to follow my progress, aswell as future projects!
Next...
I'm planning to remove most of the images from Patreon, since there is no Tier connected to them.
... So they'll be uploaded here and on other socials!
Next week, expect a bunch of images from my previous works, they may not be as high quality as my most recent stuff, but I think you'll enjoy them nonetheless... 👀
And lastly...
I've got many plans for RL improvements!
I've setup a couple of courses about Composition and Cinematography, topics in which I vastly lack;
If everything goes right I may be laying my hands on an actual office where I'll be able to focus on my work;
I also bought a new little Rig to use for less intesive stuff than Rendering and Baking, so at least I can type with no stuttering when I'm working on an animation...
So yeah... I believe we're on the road for a good workflow, and I can't wait to own it!
And that's pretty much it.
I was quick this time, I'm learning!
Gratefully,
- Raith
PS: Expect some big announcement, like, Request Slots in the near future!

Update and Plans ~ 📓
Posted 3 years agoX
Many, many things happened these weeks, I do apologize for being a little alienated...
However, everything seems to be fine now, at least for the most part, so I should be able to dedicate completely to my work!
Speaking of which...
I'd like to talk about a few things.
First of all...
The August Public Animation Poll has ended with a tie.
What should I do?
- I pick one of the most voted animation;
- I'll release both;
Next...
I'm trying to fix some older animations bugs and possibly re-render them to improve the overall quality and, in some cases, also the lenght.
However, I'm having this annoying issue where some paths where I cached the simulations and the textures has been lost, or got desynced I dunno.
This project does not have priority over producing new content, of course, so I guess I'll just find a way to reload everything I need, it will just take some time.
Then...
Rathalos - Zinogre Animation is... HUGE.
It will be called "The Little Dragon" and as of now it contains 5 different scenes, one of which I'm currently working on.
I'm slowly completing every scene with a couple different angles and possibly some simulations too.
I'll upload them in the WIP folder on Patreon as soon as they are ready!
(Also, if I manage, there will be a little surprise! ~ 💓)
Lastly...
I'm slowly getting better at understanding Realflow.
He's slowly getting worse at understanding me, though.
I guess it's just the way it goes with simulation softwares...
Fluid sims can and will get better and better, especially now that I have a new little rig just for baking.
Sometimes though, since it takes literally DAYS, I just sigh and take it as it is, so keep that in mind...
As always, if you don't like where I'm going with my work you should let me know in the comments below, on Twitter or directly on Patreon.
And that's it!.

Back from Mountains! ~ 🗻
Posted 3 years agoX
My return from the mountains is scheduled by tomorrow!
Not that I'm really happy about it, but I'm surely pumped to go back to you guys and complete a few works I've been sketching this week! ~ 💖
Back to where I live many people were complaining about the absurd temperature this summer, so I took a chance, having my parents a little house in the mountains not too far from us, to flee from it.
We weared long-sleeved clothes. It was rinvigorating.
There are 2 things I'd like to talk about in this journal:
First of all...
I've noticed many of my supporters canceled their membership.
It's not that I wasn't expecting it, I knew that being away for one week had its consequences, but my estimates were largely off.
I don't know if this is the effect of a new month or if it's actually because I took a rest, but as most of you probably know I will release a special Thank-You-Animation upon reaching my first goal on Patreon and I need to tell you I spent a large amount of time working on it since we actually got there for a couple days.
However, checking on it this morning I found I was actually under by a considerable margin... And this hit my harder that I anticipated.
But not to worry!
I'll resume my work and keep up with what I left before leaving!
We got there once, I'm sure we'll get there again! ~ 🔥
And this brings me to...
Plans for the Week! ~
This week I'll finish Rathalos and Zinogre animation. I think I can do it by Wednesday.
I hope you enjoyed the Wips on Patreon... ~ 😉
Next I'll be working on my first Request ever from a special supporter and if I manage to make it a success, I'll officially open some Request Slots!
This is the poll for the August public Animation!
And that's it!

Little Update! ~ 📓
Posted 3 years agoX
First of all, as always...
Thank you so much for the insane support... I can't really get used to this.
I'm really glad so many people like my works!
We're so close to my first goal already... at this rate we'll reach it before the end of the month, which is... insane.
Again... an immense Thank You to all of you! ~ 💗
Now, what is this Update for?
Just a couple things.
Rathalos and Zinogre animation is pretty long, like twice my longest animation.
It's not finished yet but I've got a few actions already rendered out.
I'll upload them on Patron today along with a few public Images, as stated in the previous Journal.
And the next big thing:
Starting from tomorrow I'll spent a week in the mountains!
Artists are very well known for their poor health... I'm no exception to that.
A few days on the fresh air will surely do me some good.
...
Don't worry, I gotcha...
I'll bring my Set in the mountains with me so I can keep working on the stuff we all like! ~ 💗
Of course there will be close to no internet there so I don't know if I can upload MBs of stuff but, nonetheless, the animation flow will continue!
Any work that I can't post while I'm away will be posted as soon as I get home.
And that's it!
We've done already.

3rd Week Update and Plans ~ 📓
Posted 3 years agoX
First of all, we're halfway there to the first goal...
I am speechless. Thank you so much everyone! ~ 💖
I would like to bring your attention to a few thoughts I've been having recently.
First of all, the major thing:
I'm purposely hiding every finished work behind the Patreon support mechanics, which is, you know, expected, since we live in a world where you pay upfront to get something you like.
BUTT.
There is big BUTT.
I'm starting to believe this might backfire.
Many people don't like it, or simply don't have the opportunity to support me, and I wanna do something for them too.
Sure I release some untextured animation, with no fluids aswell to showcase the juice of my work... but that seems to not be enough.
Advertisement is a very important part of my work, which I've been stupidly not paying much attention to.
Now.
I'm not planning to release everything, of course, that would be an awful move against my Patrons.
I need to find the sweet spot between creating interest and tempt people enough to consider supporting me.
How would I do?
Well, I've been considering releasing at least 1 finished image for every one of my work instead of a cropped, darkened coupled collage.
This way everyone can evaluate, along with the untextured animations, what the full product would be like, without giving it away.
Is it too much?
Is it too little?
Alternatively I've been also considering a full release of the most voted animation once per month, which will be a replacement or an addition to the previous thought.
I'll create a poll somewhere for everyone to participate, and the winning animation gets to be released publicly.
Let me know what you think about this.
Then...
Noone has currently joined my Fiery Patron Tier which was also expected.
In the near future I might consider making this Tier public, which also strictly associate with what I was saying before.
Being able to release some finished render of my works will surely step it up for me.
One last thing before talking about my plans for the week...
I'm fully committed.
If I'll be able to earn enough to survive and have a happy life, this will be my work till the end of my days.
I just wanted to be clear in case any of you had any doubt about me.
Aaaand... that's it!
Onto the plans! ~ 📓
There is a lot, and I mean a loooooot I would like to work on so choosing a topic it's always hard.
Since last week there weren't suggestions, I picked it again... ~
This week features Rathalos and Zinogre!
Suggestions are always welcome, so feel free to let them in the comments section.
Gratefully,
- Raith.

Aaaand... that's it!
Onto the plans! ~ 📓
There is a lot, and I mean a loooooot I would like to work on so choosing a topic it's always hard.
Since last week there weren't suggestions, I picked it again... ~
This week features Rathalos and Zinogre!
Suggestions are always welcome, so feel free to let them in the comments section.
Gratefully,
- Raith.

Update and Plans ~ 📓
Posted 3 years agoX
I finally uploaded all the animations I had ready before starting this little adventure,
so my buffer is now officially empty.
From now on I'll work as much as I can to provide enough content at an acceptable rate.
How much will it take for an animation to be ready?
I can't really guess how much will it take under pressure.
If we suppose it's not much different from working at ease, based on the total time of about 30 days spent to create the 5 animations, I suppose one week should be more than enough to provide a complete work.
As of now this is my best estimate. With time I'll get faster.
So there you go.
The next big thing:
I kept track of all the feedbacks I received, noted them down and took my time to think about how I can improve my work.
First of all...
LONGER ANIMATIONS
There's nothing I can do about that, they will be longer!
But what does that mean?
It means 2 things:
- The looping cycle will be a bit longer and diverse.
- There may be more than one action in an animation.
Why did I choose looping animations in the first place?
Looping animation allows it to be repeated seamlessly for a neverending enjoyable experience without the hindrance of using a mouse or a keyboard to travel along the timeline.
For me it's a very big deal!
Are looping animations harder to create?
The truth lies between a yes and a no.
Looping animations requires a different approach with simulations, meaning they can't be simply baked, and simulations are surely one the major pillar of a quality work.
There must be a process to make fluids or hairs or cloths have the same behaviour between their first and last frame of the cycle which is not exactly easy, and surely takes time.
On the other side looping animations requires no linearity in their lore, meaning I can only work on the big moment, rather than doing a prologue and an epilogue.
Second of all...
IMPROVED SIMULATIONS
In short: yes.
In reality: I need to get good at realflow.
Fluid simulations take AGES.
It's not like I'm glossing over, I can see them, I see how much they can improve...
But sometimes, after a couple days of trials and baking you kinda wanna take it as it is, treasuring the experience for the next simulation.
Third...
BETTER ENVIRONMENTS
I do like modeling stuff, but I also sadly do know myself.
Sometimes I can't resist being a perfectionist and waste days of precious time working on a crack in the distant wall.
This is clearly not efficient so I came up with a faster solution: I'll invest.
Hopefully the next few animations will have slightly better environments, with quality materials and textures.
What will I be working on this week?
Next animation will feature Odogaron and Viper Tobi-Kadachi.
The animation will contain facefuck, deepthroat and hopefully bukkake.
Depending on how much time it will take I may be able to work on another animation.
Feel free to suggest characters and kinks in the comments!

Enjoy Your Week-end! ~ 💖
Posted 3 years agoX
It has been an intense week.
Intense and AMAZING!
Now it's time to rest and enjoy our deserved 2 days break.
Spend some time in the wind, with friends or family, touch some grass, tumble in a river, a lake or a pool and please.... PLEASE...
Laugh and have fun!
And of course:
See you in the next week!
gratefully,
- Raith

The Support is Unreal! 🔥
Posted 3 years agoDude.
Dude.
I expected nothing at the start of this little adventure.
I had a couple animation ready that I created a while go for personal use and decided to try and see if it somehow were of any interests to the community.
So I packed and uploaded them with some cool graphics and profiles and other boring stuff...
Literally in 16 hours I received an INSANE amount of support!
Like WTF.
I'm astonished at how legendary you guys are... For real, I'm speechless.
Of course I'm really happy you guys enjoyed them even tho they are pretty simple and short.
BUT WTF. 16 HOURS.
Insane.
As of now I think I'll keep doing short looping animations so I can upload them at a relative frequent pace and you can comfortably lay back on your chair or bed or table and let it loop seamlessly.
Time while, I think one animation may take around a week, depending on the complexity and whether I need to fix or rig or update some models.
This is my first journal, I don't even know what I'm doing let the cringe flow -
But it's nececssary.
It's necessary to show you all how much I appreciate your support...
Thank you, thank you thank you!
In the short future I will do some research about what you like most about my animations or what would you like to see or add, so I can improve them.
Since I'm still in the early experimentation phase, I might warn you: be prepared for many different kind of kinks!
They may happen once or dozens of times depending on your feedback, so you'll be a part of it!
But yeah... that's it.
Thank you again,
- Raith
