Alright. Let's try this again, shall we?
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ATTACHED IN THE FIRST IMAGE HERE. PLEASE READ IT.
Time for a fresh start. New renders and tools. So long as everyone remains civil and understanding, then Ofugh is back. Let's have some fun.
Here's a Chie set I made a while back
The framing is off a bit to make room for some dialogue, but just like last time, I think the dialogue I wrote isn't all that good, so... I'll leave it like this, and let you guys come up with something if you want.
Also, I made that second one at around the same time I discovered @otokakoto and I may or may not have used one of the poses from her work as a reference because it was just too good.
She's a fantastic artist. Check it out when you get the chance.
Slightly conflicted on this one. The renders turned out great, but the dialogue I wrote for it might somehow be more cringeworthy than in previous projects (if that's even possible), so I think I'll just release only the textless versions for now until I potentially rewrite them.
By the way, I have a bunch of renders, both before and after my hiatus, that remain unuploaded. I'll probably start posting them here soon, slowly. There's nothing problematic in there even with the context of what happened; I was just too scared to post for a while.
A while back (just before my conundrum started, actually), I went ahead and started actually considering a full swap over to Blender. I made these renders in XPS in preparation for a side by side comparison, and...
...these are the Blender renders after porting them over. After this, I hadn't really touched XPS again. This was too big an improvement. So this is my main tool now. XPS is easier, but Blender is worth the effort.
