Commission #100 - Five in One

Imagine if I was like "this still counts as April Fools" and did all the least popular options instead🤣

But no, here are all 5 winning options! I'll go over each one.

Stella

I need to stop using the wedding dress model in interesting scenes. It's a fucking nightmare to reshape that giant skirt thing.
Which means this image...like, I'm gonna be cutting ahead to them fucking naked in the bed, I'm sorry. Maybe I could leave on the garter stockings for one more image or animation, that's about it.
I believe this is also my first shot showing a wedding ring that's actually being worn on a finger. I dropped the ball on this throughout LLRR's development. It's a pretty subtle type of detail but come on, I'm a netori dev, the wedding ring is a valuable visual motif and I should be relying on it. I think it's partially because I often hide the hands so I hardly think about it. Even in the above examples, Julie's left hand is out of frame and Samantha's left ring finger is baaarely out of frame. I'll try to do better in the future.

Anyway, I like this render. Stella looks cute 😊

Amy

I rendered this one at 150% resolution so that I can kinda pan over it in-game. I put some effort into making her thigh/butt look nice and juicy where the stocking thing ends. If it isn't clear, Kelly and Stella can't see them, that's just a wall.
I tried to make Amy bite Flin's lower lip, but every damn time I go for that idea it just comes out bad. Very rarely have I ever made any shots like that that seemed good. But I like the kiss I settled on. Amy's hot.

Julie

I could immediately feel it when I started working on this one. I thought to myself, "this one...is gonna feel special."
Admittedly, the left half feels a little lacking in detail compared to the right half, but man.
If I could go back in time, I'd try a little harder with shaping the bottom half of each character, and try to set up a few more of those types of shots. There'll always be a boob/cleavage focus in my work, because that's just who I am, but still.

I've mentioned the low-quality butt topology and rigging on the models, and I recently purchased and re-shaped a new ass model to use for my next game, but I didn't actually use that here. This is just Julie's old model with a ton of custom work done to make this shot look nice and juicy.

It was...not easy. But next time, next game...I'd like to start off with better shaping so I feel more encouraged to make occasional ass shots.

Kelly

Obviously this is a recycle of the Julie version, but I shortened the build to match Kelly's better.
Then I tried my damndest to improve on it in some other way, by trying to make the boobs jiggle more or getting a little more thrust out of it, but this animation is so delicate. The various things I tried with the boobs weren't working at all (beyond what I'd already done), and would require rebuilding a bit from the ground up. Same with the thrusting animation, the way their arms wrap around each other was so carefully crafted that any big changes mess it up. So I added a little shift upwards with each thrust, very subtle, to give it just a little extra oomph and decided that'd have to do.

Samantha

I used the same shrinkwrap modifier trick I used for the Kelly animation where you're banging her in the car at Stella's wedding, but in this case it was much more challenging to get a decent result. I also gave her skin the slightly more realistic shading so that you can see the rippling action in her boobs better. Getting the jiggling to behave roughly the way I wanted was a massive pain in the ass. Honestly I didn't really get there but I still like this quite a bit.

Conclusion

Phew! And thus marks Commission #100, triple digits!! I remember when I first started setting up this page, wondering if ANYONE was ever going to join the hardcore tier and ask for a commission. Surprisingly, someone joined that tier very early on (thank you Azalies❤️) and I'm pretty sure I've made at least one commission every month ever since. I didn't expect that!

I know I'm a peculiar dev for a lot of reasons, but I want you all to know I'm deeply thankful for your attention and your support!

Here's to passing a major milestone! Enjoy! ~🎵💕
