I’ve gotten a fair few new followers since I last showed just -me- and been silly on the timeline instead of just releases n stuff—so um hi 👉👈 I’m naeruru and I like arctic foxes and the color purple
I just released face tracking for Chocolat! it includes all sorts of ear, tail, and wing movements for various expressions. I went for a v cat-like look for this one ฅ^>⩊<^ฅ

10 sec exposure with a vintage nikkor 135mm
I was able to see the tail end of the perseid meteor shower peak with low light pollution and no one around last week! it was too windy to stabilize the camera though :<
pictures taken by @reddpanda.com while I was trying to get the lil guy to come over. LOOK AT HIS LIL WALK AAAaaa
wait I love the beach now wtf the foxes are so precious…
thankyou!! I must. see precious lil beach fox
decided to take a vacation for myself. I picked the beach. I’m deathly afraid of deep water 🥺 but I must persevere,, for the local foxes
for new booth releases I sometimes make a silly lil placeholder image so people I pre-gift to have something to look at

happy birthday 🎂
Milltina face tracking release soon—
Sinrith x AvAtelier
mayoartworks
AstrixZ and naeruru (me)
I helped bring to life a few Vket booths, each with their own unique flair ^>⩊<^)
1) cozy workshop w/ @sinrith.bsky.social x AvAtelier. shh she’s working hard~
2) why do I get the feelin somethin is watchin me..? w/ @mayoartworks.bsky.social
3&4) door to a new world w/ @astrixz.bsky.social n me!
the idea is fully from pastell_vtuber from twtter!! the implications are huge to me cuz creative mouth shapes that “fit” not just the expression but also the user/model are v important when blending ARKit params, and these changes make it suuuper easy to navigate this problem ^>⩊<^)
reworking the mouth part of my face tracking animation controller on Milltina and I’m rly excited how it’s turning out yaay✨
it includes a new Live2D-like mouth graph for unique expressive mouth shapes on 3D models, but it still feels familiar and natural to use UE/ARKit wise
I have a couple vket projects I helped create this time around and am excited to show them when vket happens next month ᐠ( ᐢ ᵕ ᐢ )ᐟ each one is v unique from the other ✨
I spent a fair amount of time making this face tracking feel uniquely manuka. and it even works well for the boldest of shape key alterations. it’s out now!!

I have an unruly urge to buy any celestial design I come across
new face tracking prefab I’m workin on by popular request 🐿️ still gotta add corrective expressions n ear / tail movements
I adopted a new cat meow
he is nothing short of chaotic
maybe even chaos itself
the butterflies are released 🦋
the particle package will be released by @reddpanda.bsky.social soon(tm)!! they created the idea in shader graph and I rewrote it and simplified it in code. was a fun learning experience about how custom data streams work to introduce randomness and how to instance it
I helped make a shader for a gpu instanced butterfly particle 🦋
been working on some butterfly particles
I did world stuff for once!! a vrchat world I helped @reddpanda.bsky.social with. it has several environments to explore with a few secrets hidden in between

I made another face tracking prefab but this time it’s for marycia. managed to improve my ear movement system a lil
my search history while working on face tracking is just an immense amount of searches of what cat n fox ears look like with different emotions 🦊
