And of course, the card!

And now for 2025! Uploading late is in the spirit of the holiday, right? :P
Retextured the bikini with secondary UVs for logos. Added my own custom stitched hoodie sim, with a fantastic knit material from @nodegroup.xyz.
Didn't catch every error, but 3 x 2.5hr rendering was enough for one night. x.X

and the Card :

2024's version. I learned a lot about shaders over that year, more than enough to tie-dye her coat. Added a cloth sim to it as well, so the coat actually hangs nicely. Looking at it now, taking away the foreground smoke was a poor choice, but what's done is done. :P

Feels like I left space up top for something, like a 420 valentine card... maybe like this?

Been low-key working on a 420 render for a couple of years now, meaning I do some work in April, miss the deadline, and go back to it again the next year. Here's where I left it in 2023, my first year with Blender. Clothes were included, I only altered the coat color.

My first render, early 2023
