Emily Redraw!
Hey everyone!
I'm (nervously) excited to share with you all a refreshed face for the next update to House Chores! Emily has finally received a re-draw that was critical for continuing on with her story. I'll explain why:
== Why? ==
When the original artist left the project, he never gave Emily her various emotions. Notice how her appearance in the game is incredibly brief and she never changes expressions. I tried to reach out to get these done but never heard back about it.
Because of this, when working with the new artist, we both agreed it'd be easier to start from scratch and re-draw to have proper expressions, a glasses-less variation, and easy support for more costumes in the future potentially!
Originally, we had experimented with a few different poses but ultimately I wanted to stick with the one closest to the original. I think it's perfect for her personality and it looks very natural & comfortable!
== Change ==
The reason why I say I'm nervously excited is because for one, I absolutely LOVE this re-draw. I think the pose is a bit more natural, the proportions still juicy, and her glasses-less version is the cutest thing I've seen in a while.
But I know not everyone is happy with any particular decision I make and when choosing to change a pre-existing thing, I've learned there are always some people who just don't like it. Sorry to those who may not enjoy the change. I hope you can grow to enjoy it if it's not initially to your liking.
== Future Redraws? ==
This is only an idea and it's not a top priority at the moment but the results of this re-draw have made me want to consider getting a re-draw for Julie & Linda as well. For Julie especially, I wouldn't mind her pose being a little more comfortable. For Linda, it would mostly be a consistency thing so her and all future characters can stay similar in proportions/coloring, etc.
Let me know your thoughts. This isn't really a poll per say but maybe a lot of people would like to see that in the future as well.
Now that Emily's gotten a re-draw, the next main focuses are a new location within the house and then back to some good ol' NSFW scenes!

That's everything for this update! Thank you all so much for your support. I will see you all soon with some more updates & teasers about what's coming next for House Chores! =D

looks lit man :o
Just subbed specifically to throw some support at this idea! Also love the project overall, keep it up! (: I'm totally down for redraws of everyone.
I like the new design
Thanks for the update. Awesome redraw she is banging!
Mutch better!
This new art looks great, but I would rather see new content vs. more redraws. Artists only have so much time in the day
The new art amis great not to look down on the old artist but this new one did a much better job cant wait to see how everything turns out with all characters being redone, by the way i like ger better with the glasses
New Design is more polished, looks better and all while maintaining the same character appearance and feel..i wouldn't be nervous about sharing this at all its 100% an improvement
Looks great like the new design
i like the new style
I vote for a total re-draw of all characters, not only for better poses but to substitute the old models for obvious reasons that I believe I don't need to mention it, am I right? Maybe doesn't mean so much but you have my total support on what regards changes on the models of the characters. I loved the idea of this project, since I saw the original little history that he's based and always found that history pretty hot and I always wanted it to be more than a funny story, now I have a chance to see that. I'm cheering for you become more confident with this project to turn it at least a little more than a side project.
The new style looks great!
I honestly prefer the new portrait a lot more. So the other two getting redone in the new style would be a very interesting idea, if only for art unity in the project.
There's a little easter egg in her new design as well! Especially if you know which game Mogucho is also helping me with at the moment ;)
I like it
Looks great!
