Hello everyone. I'm currently trying to do work preemptively so that I have more free time to work on mods. The work I do has months deadlines has to be done so I can pay bills. Most of my free time is spent dealing with real life stuff. Nothing crazy or life threatening. Nothing medical. Just general life stuff.
The current plan is to get ahead of my non-mod work so I can have at least two months to complete the entire backlog. Once the backlog is complete, I'll probably keep the patre...

Things are moving slowly but steadily. I just finished up another follower. I've gotten a bit better with my time management. Sorry to those still waiting for their followers for all this time. I don't have an ETA for all the followers, but You'll be messaged when I'm close to finishing yours.
I'll probably start posting screenshot previews again. Some are in the discord if you want a quick look.
Now that I'm able to do stuff in Blender, things just take a while now, especia...

Hey everyone, there's not much to report in terms of mods.
I've been out of commission most of the month due to being sick. Nothing major. I just couldn't a ton of stuff done, including my other work. Not covid related as far as I know. I'm better now though. Not 100%, but I think i'm getting there, especially in the last few days. I'll likely being releasing Abigail early next month. Now that I'm better I'm going to make an attempt to get these followers done faster because it's taking...

Dec-5th edit: Feeling pretty much back to normal. I'm not sure if it was a cold or a flu. But I'm doing better now. I should be finished making Abigail in a few days. I'll have a lot of testing and tweaking to do.
Nov-30th edit: I'm feeling a lot better, but still not 100%. I should be back to normal by the end of the week
I've been feeling sick for the last couple of days, so I'm gonna take the next few days to rest and wont be getting much done. I'll update this post if anything...

I'm still adjusting the colors. The hair is oversaturated and the clothing is likely too darkand the colors are too muted. The models are also in Outfit Studio, so the lighting is completely off. I'll wait until I can see every thing ingmae before making final adjustments. I'm putting her together in the CK today and will probably do some testing tomorrow. Hopefully the weapons and spells I have planned end up working with no issues.

I'm still working my way through followers. I wanted to update everyone on what exactly it is I've been doing, aside from that. I've finally figure out the critical parts for making melee weapons from 3D model assets. Namely figuring out how to get weapons to have blood decals/textures when attacking.
I've come up with some new ways to make unique spells that i'll be able to apply to some of the followers with different spells. A lot of this stuff is taking extra time, but the mor...

This month is another busy month for me.
However, next month will be less chaotic and I'll have more time to work on the followers and get some stuff released. December should hopefully be less chaotic as well, but it will depend on what my family has planned for the holidays.
January will definitely be chaotic just like this month...A lot of real life things and other obligations are just taking up so much of my time now days. But I'll eventually get back on track.

This month was pretty crappy for progress, but I got a lot of stuff out of the way. So August should be good. I think I only have 3 or 4 days to deal with real life stuff.
I'm learning to animate meshes in the game. Not every follower will benefit from it, but it should be neat for some is I can actually pull it off. I want to try and release one follower to the the nexus, but my biggest priority is finishing the backlog.
I had to go through 3 mice before I found one that (hopeful...

Hello everyone. Just wanted to give some kind of update since there's a lack of anything else right now. I'm currently using some of my spare time to learn some new stuff with the creation kit and modding in general. For those of you who have gotten custom followers, you know one of the hardest things to do with unique followers is coming up with spells that can replicate the character's. Some characters are just really powerful and don't have practical abilities that would work for a Skyrim ...

Just keeping everyone posted on what I'm doing right now and will be doing for the next few months while the patreon is paused. I'm working on my other non-mod related stuff at the beginning of the month and then then work on the followers for the rest of the month.
When I get to the followers, I also want to release them as I make them so that I don't force myself to go back and update them. Which happens a lot with the old followers. I'll look at the ones i made a while back and feel ...

I'm going to pause the patreon for at least a month starting with June. Likely two or three months total. It's the only way I can realistically catch up after thinking about it.
In other news, I've uploaded the Bodyslide Shape Presets to SSE and have updated them with more follower shapes. You can check the list there for some of the upcoming followers. I'll probably be in hermit mode for the rest of the month working on stuff.

Since I have something worth showing, I figured I'd post some screenshots for you.
These weren't made from scratch, but rather some assets I got the license to and have do a ton of tweaking in Blender, Substance Painter, and Outfit Studio. Since I won't be able to give anyone permission to use most of these assets, I plan on releasing this as an outfit as well as releasing a Lady Dimitrescu follower. The Follower will be UUNP, but the outfit will support UUNP, BHUNP, and CBBE. For both ...

Since it's mother's day month, I figured why not do a mother character again, but this time, have her daughter with her as well.
- Elastigirl and Violet (Incredibles): Elastigirl's power is possible to do to an extent. I thought thought it would be impossible to do stretchy powers, but I can at least make it almost look like she's punching with stretchy arms by using similar methods I use to have whip weapons. Violets powers will be a lot easier to mimic.

Hello everyone. I'm still really behind on getting followers made, but I've made a ton of progress behind the scenes, learning a lot more Blender related stuff which will allow me to make more higher quality stuff like armor/clothes and weapons. I might also be able to get some more hairstyles.
I might pause the patreon in June and/or July, but I'll wait to see how things go in May. I plan on releasing the Kill la Kill followers, but wanted to apply some stuff I'd learned to make them a...

Finally figured out how to reposition weapons properly. It took me a few weeks, but at least now I can do it going forward. They aren't perfect in the above post, but they're much better when she's wielding them normally. I almost feel sorry for the bandit I kept resurrecting for her to shoot over and over during testing.
I still need to test Automatic Crossbow weapons. If everything goes well, I'll probably release the mod on the nexus sometime this coming week.

I've been learning to use stuff like Substance painter for a few day. I think it'll maybe come in handy with some stuff but not everything. You can check the discord to see what I've been working on, including secret stuff that I posted screenshots of in the patron only chat. I'm going to be working on getting some followers up on the nexus and then later in the month back to working on the backlog.

The patreon will resume in April.
I'm still backed up by a lot, but I've also got a lot done. So much that I probably can't remember all of it. All the faces and bodies have been made, most of the assets have been gathered, some are pending on permissions.
I've learned some new stuff, like making different types of guns, though I still have more to learn. Some followers are going to take longer to make than others, but others will be shorter. What I also want to do is just start r...

I thought about this for a long time. I'm going to pause the vote for March to give me some more time to catch up on everything. There are more followers that I want to touch up than I realized.
So the plan right now is to release the ones that are ready, or at least prep them for release so that all I have to do is press a button to publish them on the nexus. I don't want to release them all at once and flood the site. And then in March I'm going to focus on finishing the followers who...

Hello, I've been thinking about this for a while and figured I'd ask you guys. Would you prefer followers to be set to essential or Protected?
Essential:
- This means they'll never die, no matter what. Not even you can kill them.
- They will instantly heal after every battle.
Protected:
- The only way they can die is if you deal the killing blow. NPCs wont be able to kill them
- Followers wont instantly heal after battle, they either need re...

Probably one more set of faces to go after this and then I'll start making them into NPCs. I'll also try to start releasing some of the other followers on the Nexus.
