Hey guys, I know it's been a minute since my last post here and I just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I noticed we hit 20K recently and that's such a huge milestone, and now we're sitting at 20.2K Subscribers and it truly means the world to me that you all find my content enjoyable enough to warrant a sub! In light of this I wanted to give you all an update on the channel and future projects:
First and foremost, Godzilla vs Scylla. This project has been completely finished in terms of animation, but I've decided that with both this project and all my future ones that I won't be using Unreal Engine 5 anymore. The truth of the matter is that it looks so much more better in Blender. Everything from the motion blur, the path tracing and shadows, the materials and shaders (especially normal maps) all look 10x better in Blender. I'm sure there's a way of getting it to look as good in Unreal Engine 5, but I don't think I would be able to accomplish that within a reasonable time frame. So I decided to use Blender as well as a render farm to get all the frames rendered out internally within Blender (my school has a pretty good render farm I can test out and if not I would use other options through online services). With that aside, I've also been in the midst of handling some school projects so I've had to put this project on hold. I didn't want to post an update without at least giving you guys a cool Goji v Scylla render, but I don't have any that are in Blender. So this text update might just have to do for now. So Goji Vs Scylla is fully animated, but I would need to go through and really make a good looking scene since it was originally built to be exported to Unreal while now I have to go in and add the higher poly models and new textures/shaders. It won't be a big deal and shouldn't take too long to do, but that leads me to my next point.
There is another project I picked up so that I can work on something while I'm still in school (and it sounded way too fantastic to say no to). This is one I'm keeping a lid on for now, but it really should look great and it's the reason I decided to use Blender for rendering purposes. Because I want my work to look as excellent and up-to-date as it can with all the latest animation techniques I've been learning. So this project should take another 2 and a half to (LATEST) 4 and a half months to complete since I've already been working on it for nearly 2 months now. It's shaping up to look great and I really am hoping it pays off because there's a lot of effort going into this project!
After those projects are finished I wanted to then update you guys on my Godzilla Vs Kong: Hollow Earth Battle video. I know there's been a lot of silence on this front, but I went through and updated the script especially for the first video and I'm so excited to make it. I know all the people who are helping with it are eager to begin the creation process, but being a student is proving to be a bit difficult when it comes to actually starting the thing. So this project is also on hold until everything else is finished first. But I'm DEFINITELY aiming to have Part 1 of this (hopefully) 3-part animated project finished before the end of the year!
The last thing I'd like to discuss is, well... discussion videos! I've been gaining more and more motivation to begin actually making these again. It's just going to be a bit difficult due to my schedule, but I think it would be best to start doing these again very soon and regularly because of how quiet it's been on this channel recently. Being exhausted from school and whatnot means I spent a bit more time playing games (not too much time but just enough) to start recording some clips, so I wanted to just compile those every now and then and throw them into the gaming playlist unlisted (to prevent channel clutter) and eventually start posting bi-weekly discussion videos to get rid of this dryspell. So look forward to that VERY soon!
Once again I just wanted to thank you all for keeping the engagement going and subscribing, it really means a lot to me and I have a lot of projects in the works to hopefully make that effort pay off! Thank you guys so much!!!
