**November Update**

Hey Gearheads!

I pushed back this months update to make sure I had something juicy to go along with it, so this one will be short(ish) and sweet so I can get back to it. We are finally in the final stages with the Tatsumaki project. It took fucking FOREVER to figure out the outfit issue, which turned out to be a few issues stacked on top of each other, but our boy is no longer flying through the air in his birthday suit. I believe POV clothing will both help set us apart from all the NSFW nekid dudes running around the gooner space as well as enhance immersion so I've been pushing towards a less naturalist future, especially when it comes to the featured projects. Unfortunately this time it caused a huge delay since it's a very specific outfit and there was only one model to pull it from.

So now I'm re-running the initial renders for Tatsumaki. I'm going lighting and consistency checks with the outfit in place to see what if any changes are needed. Then I'll apply those changes to the VR version while rendering out the finals for the nonVR version and then the final VR version renders. So we still have a bit to chunk through but getting there little by little and actually finally on the home stretch. An sneaky bit of flubbed animation was found in the middle of one of the sequences, so that's in Naysayers queue to tighten up before the full animation is ready. This one is shaping up to be really nice as one of our most expressive releases.

Here is a preview of the final position. It's all I'm comfortable previewing right now, while I tweak things, but more previews will be coming as we get closer to the final renders. This link will only be live for 3 days (max for litterbox) since I don't want to much fo the focus to be on the WIP, but still want to show progress instead of just telling about it.
