Progress Report

I just realized I haven't made a progress report in the past few weeks. Been too busy working on shit.Follow my Twitter to see what all I've done. Been working at breakneck speed on models for Overbreed trailer.Proper progress report next Monday, promise.

MINI-VID: HOLE IN THE WALL - 2160p Early Access

Runtime: 4:27Credits: SultryLamp - Harley, other voices TonedeafSfx - Sound design DancesWithwolves - Subtitles LordAardvark - Everything elseClick here to watchPublic release date: April 9, 2022=======This is a recycle of the canned on-stream Harley video,Holes in the Wall. I liked the idea and the dialogue, but the on-stream video just had terrible pacing, and I'm not one for the sunk-cost fallacy, so I pulled the plug on it. I have a big vat of ideas from which I pull ideas, and when it c...

Progress Report - Monday, March 28, 2022

Hello, everybody!As the end of the month approaches, I have shifted gears into finishing up April's one-off video, the Harley video. It's been fully lit, and all of the dialogue has been lip-synced. I am now in the process of lip-syncing the non-dialogue, and then adding the detail animations to it.As I was working on the April one-off, I also got back the dub audio for the June one-off, the Leliana video. So I spent time processing that and getting it ready for work. For shits and giggl...

Progress Report - March 22, 2022

Hello, everybody!My goal for this week was to get the climb-up animation of Overbreed done. I managed to pull it off, but barely in time - I got it done earlier today. I originally planned to get it done earlier in the week, but circumstances conspired such that it didn't happen.The other week, I postulated that I lose a lot of time and don't even know where it goes. This week, I paid more attention to my time, and I think I figured out where at least a good chunk of it goes: "Quick&...

Progress Report - March 14 - 2022

Hello, everyone!It's been a bumpy-but-productive week for Overbreed, as you can probably infer from this post's image, and the fact that I have attached a 2.5-minute-long WIP render of new footage to the bottom of this Patreon post.It has been bumpy in the sense that, if you've read the screenplay posted way back when, then you know that the sequence immediately following the facefucking--the missionary sequence before the arm-pinning and choking--is the weakest sequence of the entir...

Progress Report - March 7, 2022

Hello, everyone!Have you ever had a week where, when you sit back and reflect on it, you genuinely can't think of a single thing you did that past week?That's what this past week has been for me. I genuinely don't know where the time went. It feels like I haven't done a single damn thing. I must've done things, but whatever it was, I don't have anything to show for it.It miffs me, as I'm sure those of you who have been around for a while know, but I am choosing to let...

Progress Report - March 1 - 2022

Hello, everyone.You may have noticed there was no Progress Report last week. I noted on the February 14 update that it was going to be delayed and minimal, because I was going to a wedding Monday/Tuesday. That went well, was a great ceremony, nothing to complain about - other than the fact I got sick the day of the wedding.I was too sick to work on much of anything until Friday. Saturday I started to recover, though I was still too sick to really get much done. The Wednesday stream was canceled,...

STREAM-VID: LADIES' NIGHT OUT - 2160P EARLY ACCESS!

Hello, everyone!If you follow my Saturday streams, then you know that this project - informally referred to as Pharmmetra - has been in development for several months!This past Saturday, we finally finished it! You can watch all 7 minutes here!The video was put together, start to finish, entirely on live on-stream, with input and feedback from the stream chat the entire way. If you'd like to participate in how these on-stream videos are made, then you should totally check out our future Satu...

Progress Report - February 14, 2021

Hello, everyone!I had aspirations for this past week to be productive, and - against all odds - my aspirations were actually met!MinividsHere is the current state of the next three mini-vids:Harley - Fully voiced, currently being sound designedLeliana - Voice cast, recording will hopefully begin this week; with any luck, it will be ready for sound design by the end up of next week.Frozen - Animated, but no dialogue written or voice casting yet.I'd like to get the Frozen minivid further along...

Progress Report - February 8, 2022

Hello, everyone!Apologies for the minor delay on the post. I had a late night, trying to get stuff done before bed. Didn't have the time to write this post. But I do now! Hence where we are!My original plans to have all of the work on the upcoming minivids done by Monday got a bit sidetracked pretty much right out the gate. Some of the sidetracking was positive, some of it... less so.Starting with the bad, Thursday night I developed cold sores on the corner of my mouth. I've never had th...

MINI-VID: TRIPLE ANALYSIS - 2160p Early Access

Runtime - 2:34Rebecca - @SilkyMilkVoicesSound design - @DeafSfxClick here to watch itSubtitles will go up tomorrow. Video goes 720p public on February 9, after the Wednesday stream.These minivids are a quick content-drip as I work on major projects. By design, they are simple loops with dialogue and a finisher. For more information on the state of my major projects, check out my blog, lordaardvark.com , and follow my Twitter.Hope you all enjoy! Rest of this week I am spending on getting the next...

Progress Report - February 1, 2022

Hello, everyone.I was hoping to get the Rebecca mini-vid rendering last night, so I could make this Progress Report with a screenshot of the render window. Alas, I didn't quite get it there.However, it is incredibly close. It is fully lip-synced, lit, and asset-complete (animating those labcoats was almost as much fun as rigging them... I may or may not regret the base model I used for them, because it has gaping holes in the outfit underneath the coat, meaning I had to be extremely particul...

Progress Report - January 25, 2022

Hello, everyone!I totally spaced making this post yesterday. The long trip back to my apartment on Sunday threw me out of whack, especially since I was tired as all fuck due to poor sleep and getting up early.Everything's shifted back into place, though, and the train keeps a-rolling!I am now back at my apartment, and getting back into the swing of production. My first priority is going to be preparing next week's mini-vid. Then I am going to get the next 3 mini-vids moving along the pip...

Progress Report - January 17, 2022

Hello, everyone!I'm still with family at the moment, and as I anticipated, not a whole lot of work has been done.Of note, Dances and I have been working on how to add an exposition extension to Overbreed Episode 1; I originally wrote the episode under illusions it'd be a relatively short and simple project, and a pilot for a series that may not continue. All three of those concepts have fallen away since then, and so I decided to go all-in and work on properly fleshing out the narrative ...

Progress Report - Monday, January 10, 2022

Hello, everyone!As I alluded to in my last Progress Report, I am now officially spending a few weeks with my family. Expect the next few Progress Reports to be leaner than usual.That being said, a few things worth discussing:Elizabeth video! It's now up and available to the public. Doesn't really mean anything to anyone reading this (except for you filthy pirates who read leaked Patreon posts, of course), but yeah. It's up now. Just so happened to coincide with this week's Progre...

MINI-VID: HARD TRAINING

How exactly we got here is unclear. One thing is clear, however: Elizabeth Agent Seven's most recent task has somehow resulted in a group of bulky bodybuilders running a train on her ass. The things we do for the mission.InsideIncognita -ElizabethTonedeaf Lewdness -Sound designDancesWithWolves -SubtitlesNOTE:Subtitles are not currently uploaded. This note will be removed once subtitles are uploaded. This should be within 24 hours of early-access release, and well before the public release. I...

Progress Report - January 3, 2022

Hello, everyone!I am officially moving Progress Report Friday to Progress Report Monday. All the reports are written on Mondays these days anyways.Not too much to report. The Liz one-off is finally done and rendering. I am hoping to have it out on early access before the end of the week. Expect another Patreon post in a few days with it.The Witcher ladies have finally all been built and faceposed. I put together some profiles for them you can read here. Still nothing definitive on the Witcher pr...

Progress Report - December 24, 2021

Hello, everyone.Yes, this is the progress report for the 24th. Yes, it is being posted on the 27th. Yes, I am aware of how late it is.I'll keep this brief.Zarya / DVa has made no progress. Pretty much my entire week went into working on my Frozen Christmas Special Stream. You can click here to watch the narrative video my week into. The stream itself was a fizzle, as I had to cancel it early due to feeling sick. I'm fine now.I've been quietly working on a Marie project proof-of-conce...

Progress Report - December 19, 2021

Hello, everyone!Another week, another delayed progress report.You may recognize the first few frames of this week's progress report preview as being taken from this WIP animation I previewed back in October. Indeed, it is the one and the same project.I've had the idea more or less fully drafted out since before that initial posting, but I just haven't had the time to animate it all. And as you can see, it has a rather lengthy (and visually uninteresting) narrative build-up to it. Whi...

Progress Report - December 12, 2021

Hey all. Sorry for the late post.Not a whole lot to report. Spent the past few weeks focusing on the DVa Does December thing. Ultimately decided to pull the plug on it yesterday. Just too much work to keep with the new-animation-every-day pace I was aiming for. If I had kept the loops simple and low-effort I could've done it, but you all know me too well - anything worth doing is worth overdoing.Well, I overdid it and burned myself hard.Hoping to get some more Overbreed done this week.You ca...

December 5, 2021 - Progress Report

Hello, everyone!I meant to get this post out on Friday, but every time I sat down to do so, I had things come up that ended up taking up the entire evening. Finally managed to find the time!On the November 27 public stream, I ended up working on Overbreed, because I haven't had the time to work on it recently. This is the work we got done! I'm rather chuffed with it! You can download the whole 84-second WIP as an attachment on this post!Unfortunately, I haven't had much time to work ...

Progress Report - November 26, 2021

Mein Gott! A Progress Report that's actually on time!Alpha 4 of the visual novel is online. Click here to check it out. Here's the changelog from it: Added the date of the current version to the landing page. Added second sex sequence to intro. Reworded and reordered the anal-play options in character builder. Fixed anal-play buttons having weird positioning. Finished anal-play section of character builder. Made dialogue choices appear when dialogue ends, rather than when it begins, for ...

Progress Report - November 23, 2021

Hello, everyone!This progress report is insanely late, and that is almost entirely because of the top of this post's preview image. To make up for it, I have a LOT of content to share with you all - and most of it is exclusive, meaning you won't find it outside of Patreon!It also all abandoned or unfinished but, not finishing a project doesn't mean I didn't spend time on it...Blacklight Model - EG Why This Post Is So Late And Where The Majority Of The Past Two Weeks Of My Life Ha...

MINI-VID: RENEGADE DIPLOMACY [Also Progress Report for November 5]

Hello, everyone!I apologize for the super late progress report! As you can see, though, it's not for nothing!My sound designer surprised me on the 4th with the completed audio solution for the Femshep short. I wasn't expecting it for at least another week. And so, I decided to buckle down and try my hardest to get the animation done for a November 7 release.Well, I managed to get the video done on November 7...And then it took 36 hours to render.So yeah. It was done on November 7, but no...

Progress Report - November 1, 2021

Hello, everyone!I apologize for yet belated progress report.Overbreed is going well! Got another whopping 86 seconds put together since the last WIP, available for download as an attachment to this post. And more importantly, I am almost back onto the rails and returning to the screenplay!This was a fun excursion though, and while the pacing and intensity is a lot bumpier than the silky smooth progression of the screenplay, I think people will enjoy the spikes and drops of this altered take on t...

Progress Report - October 22, 2021

Hello, everyone!Blacklight Model ProgressSo last week, I noted how I was going to spend this week that just passed working on a Blacklight model. More specifically, I was working on outfits for it.In total, there are 6 outfits to put together for it. It takes me about 2 days to put together an outfit with full variants and Bodymorph, which is the standard I am going for with these outfits, as consistently evidenced by my Wednesday modeling streams.Discounting Wednesday and Saturday streams, and ...

Progress Report - October 17, 2021

Howdy everyone.So I am making this particular Progress Report public, since it doesn't have anything explicitly lewd in it, and I want to use it as a sort of public announcement.First things first, no progress on Overbreed. The first half of this past week I wasn't feeling particularly great, and I ended up using my working time pursuing side-projects. Which is what the bulk of this post will be about.Zarya x DVaOff the top, if you've read the Overbreed Episode 1 screenplay, then you...

Progress Report - October 10, 2021

Hello, everyone!I apologize for not making this progress report as regularly scheduled, on Friday. A combination of time getting away from me and trying to slowly pull back how late I've been going to bed meant I didn't have the time.It has been a productive week, though! Lots of stuff moving along in the pipeline.I've gotten the three Witcher ladies built onto their new bodies. As I think I've mentioned before (certainly mentioned this on Twitter), I have elected to more or less...

Progress Report - Friday, October 1, 2021

Hello, everyone!Not too much to report here. As I noted in last week's Progress Report, I took this week to focus on putting together a collection of short videos to release as I work on Overbreed, one video every few weeks.And that's exactly what I've done. I think the post image is pretty self-explanatory.The only thing that's not covered by the image (though inferred by its absence) is that the DVa OLC was pushed off. It ended up getting too ambitious and violated the "one...

Progress Report - September 24, 2021

Hello, everyone!You may have noticed that today's preview image isn't an Overbreed WIP. And that's because I don't have any Overbreed content to share this week. I do, however, have a story to share. And believe it or not, these two are related!For those of you who actually read the screenplay, you probably recognized that last week's WIP, ending on "how about I put something else in your mouth instead?" was just about the end of the against-wall sex sequence, transit...
