Unfortunately the hours are pretty long and it doesn’t leave me with much free time to work on avatars.  Plus when you’ve been working all day on the computer, it’s somewhat difficult to come home and do it more. So I’ll primarily be working on avatars on the weekends.

Right now we are working on a huge overhaul of the HUD and scriptcount on the Wild and Dire V2 avatars.  We wanted to make this change before we started working on the scripts for the Wild and Dire felines.  The build is almost done on the Wild Tiger avatar.  But it needs the HUD so we can continue with the animations themselves, then we can move on to the textures.

Also just before we started work on the quad HUDs, I finished a design build of Kaetif Housecat avatars. The build is completely finished, as is the HUD. I just haven’t made the color/coat varieties that. That will likely be released in the coming weeks.

That’s all for now.

Once we have the new HUD setup, we will go back and do an update for the Wild Wolf and Fox, and the Dire wolf.   They have also added neck attachment points to the avatars and we might make some changes to the avatars regarding that as well!

That’s all for now! Shadowed Soul is still in the works, just put on the backburner because of all the requests we’re getting for dire/wild feline avatars!

Here’s some images of it:

The WereHouse is now going to offer custom retexturing/recoloring for WereHouse Avatar owners. We can also do custom recoloring for avatars that a customer would like to send to a friend. Keep in mind this is for texture work only. It’s not for building or scripting work.

General Information: Recoloring will be done on Fridays on a first come first serve basis. We have the right to refuse a color job for any reason. Coloring may be limited to specific avatars, such as more recent avatars where the original avatar files are still available. We reserve the right to change prices and/or categories as we continue to test offering avatar recoloring.

What we will not do:

1. We will not recolor or add ‘naughty bits’ to avatars.
2. We will not be retexturing third party avatars or parts at this time.
3. We will not edit and tweak the avatar parts per request.
4. We will not give modify or transfer-permissable textures.

Recolor Categories:

-Simple Recoloring: Simple Recoloring is taking the pre-existing textures of a WereHouse avatar and recoloring them to meet a customer’s needs. Simple recoloring means exactly that, it is simple and will not require any editing of an avatar other than changing the color templates of existing textures. Cost: $300L per texture directly applied to the avatar and sent to the recipient. Copy versions of the texture itself available for additional $200L. Example of Simple Recoloring: Customer would like a teal tiger with a yellow underside.

-Minor Detail Work: Minor Detail Work is for WereHouse avatars that need some minor, easy to accomplish adjustments to avatar textures, such as adding a simple ‘marking’ or simple changes to a few textures. This includes taking markings from an existing avatar and adding it to another (Such as adding the V5 Tiger’s stripes to a V4 Wolf Avatar). Cost: $500L per texture directly applied to the avatar and sent to the recipient. Copy versions of the texture itself available for additional $200L. Example of Minor Detail Work: Customer would like to add a star symbol to the head and paws of an avatar.

-Major Detail Work: Major Detail Works means adding details to pre-existing WereHouse avatar images, such as very specific custom markings throughout the majority of the texture sets of an avatar. This also includes significant changes to the texture templates as well. Cost: $1000L per texture directly applied to the avatar and sent to the recipient. Copy versions of the texture itself available for additional $200L. Example of Major Detail Work: Character would like to add a specific zig-zag pattern to an avatar.

-Detailed Custom Textures: This is quite likely a complete redesign of a WereHouse avatar, texture wise. This does not include tweaking the build itself, it is only for retexturing. Please discuss with Jakkal Dingo if you need a detailed custom texture job for your avatar. Cost: Negotiatable.

Kaetif were a created enslaved race on the world of Raekarta.  At some point they secured their freedom and started to develop their own culture and society, though still struggling with humanity to gain equality.

The Kaerwyn Creation Avatars were specifically designed to look closer to the drawn style of the comic’s Kaetif than the “realistic” style of the  WereHouse Avatars.

These avatars come with many of the features people have come to expect from the WereHouse, including HUD controlled facial expressions, Ear and tail options, and eye recoloring options.

Colors Available: Amber, Blue, Brown, Charcoal, Golden Tabby, Green, Incarnadine, Indigo,  Orange, Pink, Purple, Red, Reverse, Silver, Smoke, and White.
