Happy Friday everyone!

We have some more work in progress shots of the Tsi-Hu humanoid. This time we are focusing on the head and face and upper body. We wanted to create that "alien beast yet intelligent" look we've all been discussing with the community.





The "hair" on the Tsi-Hu humanoid are meant to mimic the hair on the beast form that they shapeshift into. Right now we are modeling the hair, but if we get time, we want to explore using a shader to create moving, morphing shapes of spikes like ferrofluid.

Also this weekend, JoeSolo will be streaming the BEAST mode modeling. @HeineSnow kindly provided the base model that we are scultpting into its final form.

Joe has a new microphone that he swears sounds "really good" so our past audio issues should be history. The stream is on Sunday, 6PM-8PM! This time he will be dual streaming it to his personal channel as well as the new, official Em-8ER Twitch Channel.

To catch Joe this Sunday, 6-8pm, find us on Twitch here: https://go.twitch.tv/em8ermpw

You can also watch Joe via his personal Youtube if that's better for you: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSieVxJhO1EbiRVn3XfYerA

See you on Sunday!

TL;DR: And the final value of ingame credit given away is ...
$239,860 !!!

After being asked for hard numbers about founder credit program and late comers being confused whether it's still running or not, I've had work cut out for me. Goal was to transform Firefall founder credit page to anything better than 404 error. Priority was to inform users it's no longer available and to explain what it was about, what was offered and why it was discontinued. And as cherry on top display all the relevant statistics.

It was great experience to create the program, which I believe ran without any major incidents and resisted any abuse attempts (I know you've tried, I'd too :D).
