I know it looks kind of unfinished right now, but I thought I'd give you guys an update on some stuff. There are going to be three environments in this animation: the mountains/snow (which is done), the second floor of the palace (this), and the dungeon (which is unfinished).
The ice has a bit of a stylized look to it because I chose to render this in Eevee, so that it doesn't take a year to render. It should also be noted that the scene involving this area will be relatively brief, so I'm not investing too much time into it. The dungeon/prison area is where most of the animation will take place. And I have some ideas to make it look unique while still fitting the 'ice' theme.
On voice actors, I found one that messaged me who would fit the role perfectly. As long as she's still down to voice her, we're all set. I imagine finding a male voice actor for an NSFW animation will be easier. I'd voice him myself, but I have a very distinct voice and I do other stuff on the internet where I might get recognized. If any of you guys are voice actors, though, feel free to hit me up.
For how long everything is gonna take: the only thing I need to add to this environment is some snow/volumetrics and a skybox in the background. The dungeon scene should only take one day to model since I can re-use this ice material for some of it. Then I can start animating the scenes and implementing the animations I've already made. It's hard to say how long that will take, but generally it takes two days for thirty seconds of dialogue, and three days for a sex scene. Unfortunately, even though I'm gonna have a lot of free time, I'm forced to take about every other day off so that I don't aggravate my tendon injuries. But rest assured, the output will be MUCH faster than it has been this past month. And I intend to get this entire thing done before I get called back to my IRL job.
