Render count now stands at 85 stills and 1 animation. Chances are I'll go back later and add in 2-3 animations either instead of, or in addition to, selected stills. Just to spice things up.
I created a scene list for the first two VN chapters (now equivalent to the first 6 chapters of the novelized text-only story). They're listed at the end here. I still need to come up with estimates for the number of render images needed for each scene. There will be 17 scenes in this first release, and so far the first 3 are complete, and I'm well into the fourth. As I started rendering with Nina with her first scene I was dissatisfied with her appearance and went in and tweaked her a bit. Changes to lip texture and lipstick color, and made her not quite so pale in skintone. She was always intended to be "fair-skinned" but her first renders were too pasty, so I gave her a little color.
