Sneak Peak of the New Date Area

So, I'm only half surprised that the votes of the second poll came out Dom/Sub again. As I said, I included it this time precisely because it is kinda Naomi's thing. Anyway! I thought I'd slip all you lovely patrons a sneak peak of the new date location I've been working on. This beach isn't inside Eros Academy. It's a little hidden offshoot of a public beach an hour or so away from the city that the game is set in. Mostly it's only the locals that know it's there, so they use it as an unofficial 'clothing optional' area ;-).

This zoomed out render showing the whole beach actually represents something like 4-5 hours of works -_-. That's somewhat unusually long for new areas these days, but I didn't actually have very many beach assets. Most of the ones you see in use here and new free assets I managed to hunt down, some of them needing a fair bit of manipulation to make them usable. Likewise, creating 6 new people and posing them in a way that looks vaguely natural was a bit time consuming. With Eros locations I often reuse background characters, both for my own sanity and as a bit of reinforcing tool (to help it all feel like a single cohesive location). These NPCs are all new, though, even if my currently limited selection so of skin tone and hair assets might leave them looking a little more familiar than I'd like....

Eh, ultimately I'm happy with the results, at least! I'm still working on the other new area (that I know of), which will be a nearby beach house. Thankfully I found a number of good assets for that while I was searching for the beach assets.
