Discord Extras {December 2023} (Patreon)
Content
Welcome everyone to your final Patreon update of 2023, and a special welcome to all the new Patrons who have joined in the past month! You are all so generous and I am so Thankful for all of you! and speaking of Thanks, I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! ^o^
I'm gonna start with a little recap as to what has been happening in my life this past month. The month started with me getting my Covid and Flu vaccines and them putting me out of service for a week or two (It's all a blur now I don't even remember lol), Then ever since that I have been fighting insomnia after attempting to change my sleep schedule so I could attend the various parties and family gatherings planned for this holiday season! I am still fighting the insomnia but the parties have all been lots of fun thus far. ^_^ Hopefully I get over this insomnia stuff soon though, or I'm gonna have to start taking more drastic measures to make me sleep and stay asleep. x_x
While no major projects where completed in November I did manage to work on a lot of smaller ones and quite a few Artistic Render Projects. So, I hope you all have enjoyed the projects this month! ^o^
Now Onward to the Art and Beyond!
Image 1
I've been wanting to make a setting/environment like this forever!
This is probably one of my favorite pieces featuring my wolf gal to date! You cant really tell on this piece but I made some small updates and fixes to her face and ear morphs as a side project. She doesn't get used in art very often so was nice to feature her in something again. ^o^

As per Tradition, with Christmas comes Caribou!
I wanted to create a piece that shows the bond between my Anthro Bou and their Feral bou livestock, also used some new assets and effects in this piece as well.
Expect more Caribou themed pieces in the coming weeks!^_^
Images 3&4
Here we have another Piece featuring Wolf Gal! This time she is playing the role of the Retired Academic relaxing in her study on a cold winters day today.
This one was a lot of fun to work on and design, I wanted something that was elegant and beautiful, a lot of post work was put into this one too. The keen of eye amongst us should be able to spot the changes I made to the Images from the originals posted to Discord :P
The second of these two images is just an alt with a slightly different pose. Which is your favorite? ^_^
Images 5&6
From the Frozen North to the Deserts of the East, we spot Cobra gal, offering us refuge from a sand storm. These two images are of the same setting and environment but with different camera angles, I wanted to see if I could make two pieces of art telling a different story just with camera placement and post work effects, I think I was pretty successful? :D

This was a little Piece I whipped together before heading out for Thanksgiving Dinner.
I hope no one is watching as I sneak a bite from the Turkey. :P
Images 8&9
This was a bit of a mood piece I wanted to put together after getting over the Side effects of the Covid and Flu vaccines at the same time. Human or Anthro getting Vaccinated sucks! D:
Included is a nude alt. lol
Images 10&11
For the former Vaccinated pieces I created a Veterinary Environment and a collection of props to populate it, here are two of them. The Cone of Shame is actually something I've been wanting to make for a long time, mainly for use in my Morphological Institute Setting, because the more feral minded of patients might have animal problems requiring one. They are also funny and fun to play and meme with. :P That cone of Shame did put up quite the fight though! Ended up being one of the more harder things I've had to rig in my life. x_x
Images 12&13
This was probably my largest project of the month, working on updating my Personal Character Model. Here you have progress renders of the full body. ^_^
Images 14-16
The major updates where to the facial and ear morphs, I was finally able to get a proper looking feral head shape that I am happy with! ^o^
Edits and Improvements where also made to the Strandbased fur, a thing which never seems to reach a point of perfection. lol I think I am much closer to a Smooth Transition with far less shading anomalies now though! :D
Image 17
My most recent render showing the model in its current state and a test of the new facial movement morph I made to give off a proper wolfish grin! This is also a good image to show off the new HD textures for the hand paws, as well as their new pad layout.
Don't ever forget, no matter how hard things get, always remember to smile, even if your face no longer allows you to do it correctly after transforming into a wolf. lol
Thank you all so much! I am eternally grateful for everyone's support and friendship! I hope everyone has a Wonderful Christmas when it comes around and a Nappy and safe New Year! ^o^
Until we meet again. <3 You all! ^_^
