Hello!
Sorry for my silence these past few days. A few things have happened since I last posted. Summer is almost here. We’ve been hitting nearly 35 °C, with a heat index of 38 °C. It’s been wild. My area is usually warm, but we’ve never reached these levels before.
In other news, I never updated you on the state of my GPU… well, it’s officially dead. About a month ago, a technician finally had time to check it and found a crack in the core. He told me that with that kind of damage, there’s about a 90% chance it’s beyond repair. I’ve honestly been feeling a bit down and unmotivated—it was an essential part of my work setup—but there’s not much to be done at this point.
Some peeps have suggested I ask for donations to help fund a new GPU. To be honest, I’m not really comfortable asking for money, especially for something I don’t see as “urgent,” even if it is important to continue creating. That said, I’m considering getting an RTX 5070 Ti, which currently costs around $1300 in my country. I’ve been saving up, and my dad also helped me out with some funds. Right now, I’m about $300 short of being able to get the new GPU.
As I mentioned, I don’t like the idea of asking for donations—but if anyone wants to help, I would be deeply grateful for your kindness.

Remember, it's completely voluntary. I plan to reward people who donate. It could be some extra months of subscription at no cost, a customized render of one of my models with one of yours or a special mention in a next animation. (it will depend on the amount donated And if the person wants to receive something in return)
On another note, regarding the Diane model: I’ve decided to go with Bradley’s version. It's much easier to work with, has a more complete rig, and is optimized for Blender 4, which is the version I use. And the new version of the model looks great.
And finally, I’ve been working on a model I owe a friend since 2023. I’m focused on getting that done so I can clear it from my to-do list and move forward with my upcoming projects.



I’m also starting to develop my first OCs, which I’ll be introducing in the future once their designs are ready.
Thank you for your continued support.
