the Summer '08 Collection continues!
Quite the week!!! After a lot of grief and vertex color complications that made me have to vertex color from scratch, I released Summer '08 Packie, which at least ended up including some nice fixes to Packie compared to his state in vanilla, where his mouth and teeth seemed to be illumated at all times... Thanks to my annoying vertex coloring situation, i ended up fixing this issue!
I recorded a funny clip (or two) and uploaded it to Youtube, i feel like posting more casual silly brief videos would be a nice change instead of only the yearly polished one. You can see THAT in my right sidebar with my bright new edits to my homepage! added a "latest video" and "song of the moment" section which took up all the blank space i've had for a while... And even moreso, finally put in the pixel graphic there underneath that i made before i got started on this site in july! maybe I'll rotate it out?
i'm thinking of adding a gallery with my original blender work (of which there is... very little. LOL) so that's something to look forward to... as well as my next release, "Peeled" Kate McReary. I love my "Peeled" Collection. Getting this one out of the way before i finally make IG versions of her Bridal Lingerie and her two swimsuit variations I'm making for Summer '08! Then I'll see about finishing Roman, and getting started on Johnny and Luis... (Or maybe I'll be BAD and finish my shirtless models i started ages ago of Tony and Ray first? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!) Whatever. Stay tuned!

ouuugghhhh
Misty seems to be feeling better for REAL this time. which is a relief. I had to really get my ass in gear with the Summer '08 Collection, and with any great emotional hardship, it almost always results in more of Packie.
So I started out with green swimshorts because, of course I did, that's his typical color, right? but I shook things up and gave him the TBOGT gradient. I'm obsessed, it looks amazing. Even if a bit oversaturated. I gotta think of more. maybe the Hokusai wave? And of course, standard solid colors.
I'm just bummed the same way i was bummed with that saucy Kate model i was (and still am) making because I'll have to destroy the canonical cutscene body proportions and turn them into their IG counterparts to actually be used in-game. I'll get over it if I want to release a new piece of the collection before July's out. But yeah. Stay tuned.

More Updates!
life updates... misty kept throwing up yesterday and it was so sad. she was so visibly slower but then she felt better at night and kept her tiny bits of food we were feeding her throughout the day down. she went CRAZY she was trotting all around the house and jumping up on all of the things for fun. so we thought things were okay. but then she threw up foam *again* this morning before breakfast and then, after making the SADDEST crying sound in the world, running to the bathroom, she threw up a second time AFTER breakfast (but she'd digested since so at least she wasnt going hungry) we think its those furball control treats not fully doing their job or that she just had a normal fever yesterday shes been getting over because she was sneezing (and so were we all, actually) but if anything shes her usual self right now, and i'm glad.
website updates... added a little link to my blog archive at the bottom of my index, and I FINALLY got activated at status cafe only to figure out that any neocities accounts made in 2024 cant use the status cafe widget??? which i do NOT get because the clock widget i have there in the left sidebar seems to work exactly the same way??? i dont get it man. anyways, i added a little link to my blog archive, finished the Johnny, Luis, and Other Characters pages, and i have two whole pages of my Niko mods done! (i didnt put up fast food Niko because i was too lazy to make a gif of it going thru all the outfits... i will eventually. ugh)
i need to finish two commissions and then i need to FULLY dedicate myself to the Summer '08 collection (Swimsuit Packie, One-Piece Swimsuit Kate, a Patron exclusive Two-Piece Swimsuit Kate, Swimsuit Roman, more Summer attire for Niko...) and hope i get them all out before the end of August, which in my mind sounds IMPOSSIBLE when my mind is as frazzled as it is, but I'm extremely psyched because since i made my Mods page with my Patron crawl, i got THREE new patrons... I'm incredibly thankful. I don't even know what to say. I wouldn't be here without you. With this, i'm also opening up my guestbook for people to leave messages. Stay tuned for more website updates.

We're getting there!
You may or may not have noticed, but I've gone on an absolute rampage making buttons, including my own, since my last update. But importantly, I've finally got marquees working with the help of ColdCalzone at deep-freezer.neocities.org, and if anybody else is having as much trouble as I did, the codepen is right here! All I really have left to do is to set up my Mods page, which was really the whole reason i made this site. LOL! and maybe edit my About me. I think I got too soul bearing. Ugh.

I declare this website open!
...Partially.
It is July the 9th, 2024 at 12:29am in the beautiful but currently muggy and oppressively warm New England, and here I am, trying to put together the homepage for the first website ive made since i was maybe 14? the first was probably when i was 7. i sure loved iWeb, and all my rounded boxes. I'm just beginning to get everything up and running, and I havent even finished my funny 404 page yet, that's how new this all is, after over a year (or maybe two!) of just trying to figure out where to begin here on neocities... anyways, enjoy your stay.
