Blender isn't everything

 

I have seen quite a few amazing animations over the years, some created in SFM, some with TK17, of course there's also VAM, a lot of Japanese animators use Honey Select for their animations since it's much easier to use and perhaps there are other animation engines out there to aid animators in getting their work completed. But the one rendering and animation program that people like to bring up and suggest everyone migrate to is, BLENDER. Now we can be honest with ourselves and admit the truth that Blender does some of the best looking animations and provide higher level of detail graphics compared to all the other programs I mentioned and then some.

 I mean there are superior programs than Blender, it's not the Master of all animation and rendering software. It's only the standard among a few erotic/pornographic artist that want to animate these days, and several non-pornographic studios use and rely on blender for projects as well because it's free and accessible for them unlike the expensive competitors that cost thousands to own and use.

Back when I was a masturbating mad man, I can honestly say that I've gotten off to animations that weren't even created with Blender. I use to spend a lot of time relieving stress to Sircus's 3D animations back in the early 2000s. He was one of the first to do futanari in 3D too, most people don't even know that. But he definitely was the first 3D futanari animator. Its just that for some reason he never did enough of it. He would always disappear for long periods of time, at one point people thought he had passed away.
I see him active on Pixiv sometimes but even he's not aware that he was the first during a time when futanari animations were very scarce and non-existent. Japanese animators were dominating the market with 2D hentai stuff, and the majority of it was male on female, some regular girl on girl every now or then or tentacle rape material which use to be popular before it got replaced by stupid cuckoldry bullshit aimed at males with inferiority issues.

    I'm not sure if Sircus animated this with Blender or something else. I use to run into his animations a lot in 2006, in 2006 futanari wasn't that popular outside of still imagery works of fiction. Animation wise, the first few futanari animations were done by Japanese hentai artist those hentai's were the popular Bible Black, Angel Blade, etc. It took awhile before futanari went into 3D animation territory. Sircus was possibly the very first animator to do this with futanari content.

Another thing people should keep in mind is that some animators that haven't switched over to Blender are happy creating animations with programs they are familiar with the most. From what I can tell using a program that can't produce the same level of detail as Blender doesn't mean people will have little interest in your content. Understanding what people are interested in seeing you animate is the key importance because even if you use Blender there is no guarantee that it will benefit every idea you might have.

The Terrible Fairy does a damn good job making perfectly good use of TK17 and as a result of that he earns just as much patreon support as those that use Blender. Therefore you don't need Blender's high quality graphics to do exceptional content unless that's what you really want from it. There is too much proof of this with animators using software that's beneath Blenders power and they are still capable of coming up with interesting content anyway that appeals to a specific audience. I know that what you hear is people bragging and talking about all the nice jiggly ass and tits physiques that Blender can do, yeah I know and I've seen it with my own two eyes how great Blender can make things look if you understand how to use it. 

Yes, it does a great job with all those things but that doesn't mean you can't do interesting material with limited software either. DesireSFM did plenty of fantastic animations in SFM, and still proved he's capable of doing spectacular animations with it. There are going to be people that feel you should join the Blender crowd only because it's trendy to follow what others are doing.  But I believe that you really don't have to learn and figure out complicated Blender in order to get attention from viewers or to create good quality animations. 

All you need are ideas, and the ability to make animations that will hook your target audience, do that and people will support your content regardless of the program you decide to use. Don't let Blender naysayers con you into believing that the only way you'll gain a large following and attention is if you go in that direction. Use Blender if you feel comfortable with the program, not because people are telling you lies that you can't appeal to people with programs that are inferior or outdated in comparison to it in certain ways. I mean most Blender artist are freakin lazy, all they ever do is loops and 15-20 second animations...The damn art community is saturated in this low effort shit. You get all those gorgeous effects, jiggle physiques but at what cost? Animators that don't want to spend months or years actually investing in something worthy of financially backing it up.

The one downside is that if a program is badly limited then animation quality might suffer some. Edge Systems is another one I was curious about a few times. I don't know if they use Blender or something else to animate with. I think the animation software a lot of these artist use isn't really all that bad as long as they are good at using it. And The Terrible Fairy so far is one of the best TK17 animators. The one he did titled "The Prescription" that was some of the best intense sex I've ever seen anyone do with dated software. 

It's animators like him that proved that Blender is nothing more than over hyped as far as producing quality sex goes which can be accomplished in any program that isn't too heavily restricted.  I'm like this I'm actually content with The Terrible Fairy's work, he doesn't need Blender. The quality he's been doing with TK17 is without a shadow of a doubt, excellent content! The way his futa's slam into vulnerable unprotected pussy is unmatched by anyone else using the same software. I use to hear people comparing him to RedApple all the time, but I definitely prefer his content over RedApple's especially when the futa's threaten to get the girls pregnant. And then you hear that beating heart sound right before the futa unleashes her seed inside. Good sex is good sex regardless of the program and Fairy creates some very good sex with TK17.

The one other major benefit about Blender though is character model types. You can practically use any mainstream character you want with it from any video game, comic, movie, etc. For those who want to make use of those popular characters would possibly be better off with Blender or SFM. I doubt TK17 would have these models, and people also might not like the characters that much. The same applies to programs like Honey Select but a lot of Japanese animators don't seem bothered with it, VAM have gained a lot of attention too. I know a few beginners that are starting out with it.
