Zelda Miltank TF Update (Not a good update)
Added 2021-05-12 21:28:23 +0000 UTCHey there, guys. I just spent the last 15 days working on the Zelda Miltank TF that I posted the rough for earlier this month, and I just had my program chew up the file and corrupt it.
I had a feeling I should have made a backup, but did not, as I was literally an hour away from finishing the animation. Though I made a mistake in assuming nothing would happen, and something did.
The only thing left of it is this file from a week and some change ago:
It's pretty disheartening to have the work lost after putting around 25 hours into it and not have anything to show for it.
I don't want to look at this for the time being. I'd like to come back to at another time. It was some of my favourite work up to this point, so it's very difficult.
My apologies for the inconvenience. I reckon I'll move onto the giantess loop. I'll keep you guys posted.
I need to go for a run.
Moral of the story: Trust your instincts, folks. Back up those files.

I am sure it will be great!

2021-05-12 23:37:23 +0000 UTCI don't think anyone needs a reminder of how much it sucks to lose the physical portion of an investment. But it definitely wasn't any wasted time, for sure. This just means that whenever you're ready to get back to it, it'll be better than you thought possible. Keep up the great work :)
