Here's the full animation! There's some sort of bad clipping at the end, the bronto's leg on the chair, but I'm okay with that. Fixing that would probably be more trouble than it's worth to be honest.
I've also made a lil logo thing for the animations, whipped it up real quick:

2021-09-29 21:51:18 +0000 UTC View PostI have a lot of different ideas things I'd like to do next, all of which I'm equally happy with, but does anyone want the next one to be feral dragons? (that can talk, like, if I'm doing a dragon animation, it's going to talk. We're having a talking dragon, no question about it)
I'm thinking either feral x feral, so two dragons smashing, or feral x some kobolds or equine-y type characters...
2021-09-29 18:52:34 +0000 UTC View PostI've been thinking about it a lot, and wondering if I should go ahead and add some sound in to the animation... (maybe a teeeeny bit of voice acting? I could probably animate some mouth movement- the mouth setup for the characters should be capable of it).
But how much do you value sound? Is it very important? Kind of? Not really?
I'd rather just hand it off to some...

So far, a whopping 1710 frames of it have been rendered. I'm actually quite happy with how everything looks! The lighting, materials and such look quite nice (but maybe it's because we spend so much time looking at view ports, approximations and so one).

I'll be setting up the scene for rendering, then... if all goes well, as in, hopefully I can just hit render and not have forgotten to enable something/hide something and have all the final frames (all... 4505 of them ._.)

I got around to rendering the last of the frames and such!

This would be the kind of content on such a website.
There's a few things that will change though, such as:

There's a bit of freak out on the tail hole (I haven't added drivers to the shrink wrap constraints so if the plug gets near the tail hole, it'll try to wrap to it causing a weird glitchy hole!)

It's been quite awhile, I was working on both the animation and this brontosaurus character. The animation I kind of messed up because I parented the donk's body to her leg and when I animated it, it messed the nip suck up a bit.
