Survey
🕑 Added 2022-02-11 23:52:56 +0000 UTCThis is a very short Survey. It only has 2 parts and it has super relevant questions, it'll take you 2-3 minutes, so please, DO NOT MISS THE SURVEY. Changes will be based on what you say.
----(Skip the following if you don't want extra info)-----
The workload is getting ridiculous because we keep doing things that do not exist or when the meshes exist they're not of very good quality (like Krystal's meshes from GC) so we still need to do them from scratch. With such a high demand - specially for headmods - I wonder if most people notice the difference anyways. I could just filter selections making sure there is a DeviantArt or ripped mesh out somewhere, port it, credit and be done. (Not that we haven't used 3D references before, but we often do things from scratch because there's nothing to base our work on in those instances). So I honestly want to know, has it made any difference to you? This is important information and it could change the way our Patreon works.
I need to know what are your expectations. It boils down, to how much extra features you want, if any at all. I know you want accuracy but I also want to know if anything matters besides that. Do you mind about headmods being done from scratch, or making them editable? Would you mind if I limit selections based on the availability of 3d references. Is it all the same if I were to port a head with 3 expressions and an open mouth? Do you mind about color options, details, high-quality reworkings of textures, doing mods from scratch?
Keep in mind, all of these details add a ton of extra time (specially for headmods). It always makes me happy to add as much quality as I can, but if you don't care about certain details, it's fine. I'll be able to focus on other stuff. But you have to decide and let me know ;3
In the meantime, and talking about headmods, we're still working on Krystal. We're almost done this time. Just a pair of expressions and we're good. I'm working on Wendy, I already have her clothes (done from scratch btw) and I think I have already exhausted all options to make her headmod except actually removing all the bones. So this one won't be editable. The eyes don't get allong with the bones of this crazy headmod.
I'm using Landidzu as a base because I got a good body reference imo.
So that's it for now, please do particpate in the survey, it's super short, It'll take you 2-3 minutes and it'll help me A LOT.

I personally think the more customization the better no matter in what.That is why koikatsu is so popular in the first place.But if in headmods or any mods if that is just not possible or will take too long(months).Then I think that is a fair trade.Accuracy then customization.So far Mr.Delegado hasn't disappointed in either.

Personally the editable headmods are why I became a patron

The attention to detail in the models that makes them accurate to the source is why I'm here as well. It's unique to see these types of models in Koikatsu. I can live without some extra features here 'n there if it means the models themselves are accurate.

One of the biggest reasons I'm a patron of Mr. D is because of his incredibly accurate models. It's the entire appeal for me. As long as it isn't burning him out, I would definitely prefer he stick to things the way they are.

This is a tough survey. For those wanting to move forward with this, think of the unique headmods that are close to accurate to the source material currently available. Some of these can require months of work to uniquely create assets that reflect that. Krystal being a huge example of this. Think of it like this: You look at a Koikatsu site for cards, look up "Krystal" and see multiple cards. That's just a Krystal based on user preference, an individual interpretation. Boiling down to essentially, it's "A" Krystal. The collab between Frankie and Delgado is a creation of "THE" Krystal. That's not to say a user's own version can't be good, it can even be great but it's not really as 1:1 as represented in the material
