Life in the backyard …
Just wanted to say thank you! Thanks everyone for your comments in the recent vote thingy, some wonderful thoughtful responses in there from a wonderful readership! Well done all. So believe it or not, I am actually going to go with the flow and focus on the comic that pretty much everyone went for in…
New comic on the way! Ish! Before Christmas probably! (edit: no)
… and no, it’s not Lithium 10. Basically, I’ve been busy. With work, with stuff going on, with life in general, and I find those times are actually times when you need a bit of headspace, know what I mean? Yes you do. So I like to make silly comics and that sort of calms…
Boobs … except … the side … if only there was a word …
So basically … ok don’t hold your breath STOP HOLDING YOUR BREATH!! Breathe man, breathe! So basically, I’ve added in a cheeky scene or two, just set the ol’ render horse neighing while I photoshopped the final pages together. Buuuut don’t hold you breath because I still need to add ALL the speech bubbles and…
Awkward moments, silly stories
Okay, I’m enjoying putting this latest thing together. It’s a little silly, and forms a kind of chronological root to the whole STFW / Lithium universe thing. And you can probably see a little resemblance to Lithium’s Jack in the image above. So quick update: I’ve done 106 pages, think there’s maybe 50 to go,…
The most important thing you will ever vote on.
Listen listen listen, I’m making Lithium #11. It’s happening. But I really need your help!* I cannot decide this without you all!!!!* This will be the most important thing you have ever*, will ever*, or COULD ever* vote on!!! I’m being deadly serious*. What are the best pyjamas for Charlie? And don’t say “Secret option…
Hope and peace
I’m really glad I asked people what their main hope was for changes in the world post-pandemic, there is some lovely wisdom and messages in there. Thought I’d share the first 150 or so with you: What’s your main hope for the way the world will be changed, post-Pandemic? Ain’t got none 🙁 I hope…
It’s beginning to look a lot like … boobies.
Thought I’d check in, have a quick look at Tira Yugen’s rendo profile and OH yes, yep. More comics in the pipeline, it seems. Goody! I mean I would act more surprised, but … you know. Then I thought I’d check in on my Deviantart, and woweee … 949 notifications. Huh, personal best. Ah well…
Storage
Can anyone recommend a free cloud storage thingy? I’ve been using Google Drive but I’m a bit worried they’ll see boobies and think I’m a deviant and ban me and I’ll get the Feds knocking at my door (despite me not being anywhere near America, but you know … I’ve seen movies where they do…
Tipping point
You know when you do a piece of work, a difficult project or whatever, and you don’t know if it’s going to be a box-ticking exercise or a profound piece of wonderment straight out of the soul of the universe? And then there’s this tipping-point, where suddenly you know … this is going to…
The Lithium Comic. 03: Jack/Off
OK, don’t have a heart attack or anything, but here’s Lithium comic #3!!! Wahoo!! I think I’m getting a bit better at arty CG stuff, so that’s nice. Anyway, this comic includes a certain amount of dick-squeezing, an extraordinary range of nudity, a goodly deal of different bodily fluids, and some extremely awkward moments! Hooray!…
Splendid Tiramisu
Thanks to Shades for signposting, and to Fred Brown for spotting this: – Tira, of Rather Magnificent fame, has moved to Renderosity for updates – and it looks like the much-anticipated 6th comic is … actually … on the way! **SQUEEEE!** Wait, is it squee or sqwee? Squie … skwee … hmm. This is what…
Gifs! Gifs! Gifs! Love me some gifs
Here’s the first few silly gifs! Hoooray! Charlotte and her bestest pal Jack, enjoying a sunny morning in the bathroom. I regret nothing. Share them wherever you like, I’ll prob delete them sometime, knowing me. Note: the only rule with these gifs, is that if you pronounce it a soft J sound, ‘jifs’, then you…
Religion
Someone recently commented (fairly) on the latest Lithium comic; “It might have gotten a little too on-the-nose about the religious subtext. I understand that religion has been used to harm others and that’s horrible but faith can just as easily lead to peaceful, loving persons. I respect you trying to say something but it just…
A little love story
You may know that I read all the feedback on my comics, and I take it seriously. Sure, some of it’s nonsense purely as a symptom of the sheer number of people leaving feedback – if you ask a thousand people for advice, at least thirty of them will talk total BS (I’m normally one…
Lithium comic #5 out tomorrow!
It’s done. Something for England to be proud of in this otherwise dark time. I’m doing final checks for story flow and need to do a bunch of tiny render tweaks, but apart from that it’s done 🙂 I’ll upload tomorrow evening (UK time). Have fun sleeping. PS. Get some fluids … … … ……
Tiiiiiiiime travel: VOTE!
Okay, help me with a conundrum. Basically, I was wondering about weaving in a mini plot including HG Wells and young Mary Poppins, time-travelling into the Lithium series. They could visit a bunch of scenes from STFW and Grace etc as well, a sort of post-Lithium homage to all things STFW-universe. BUT then I thought…
Big thanks to the generous fans who bought me stuff
You may have noticed that my Renderosity wishlist, which was at 30-something items, is now aaaalmost empty (EDIT: It’s empty! Thank you!). Which means you lot have done an amazing, generous job of buying me the 3D stuff I need! Thank you so much to everyone who chipped in. And the people who nearly chipped…
Free comics and details and whole new kinks!
Okay I’m at the ‘adding details’ part of creating the first few Lithium scenes ready for the next comic’s rendering to start in earnest … I say ‘start in earnest’, I’m not sure I can guarantee it’ll be in earnest, considering what lovely weather we’ve been having recently, but still, you get the point. Lithium…
Twinspiration
Okay … inspired by a little plot-wrangling in a recent comic … ahem … I’ve gone off on a bit of a SIDE MISSION to start making this comic that everyone said they wanted, back when I did a concept comic poll last year. You remember the one. It was a comic about a young…
One two … one two … this is just a test
My word, Twitter’s annoying, isn’t it? I’ve just hooked up IFTTT from this blog to current [rubbish] username @SindyAnnaJones3 (now bust) – but Twitter keeps locking me out and has managed to set me up three times with the wrong details so now I can’t edit the handle Tsssk, ah well perhaps it’s not meant…
Very … tired … must … … … fap
Oh lordy I’ve done that stupid thing of becoming extremely stressed at work and then not realising it and then everything falls apart and I’m left in the middle going THIS IS FINE without quite spotting that my skin temperature has reached a million degrees and my nose has melted onto my lap. No, no,…
Beautiful rejects
Thought I’d drop the renders that didn’t make it into the latest comic, just for fun. I’ll caption them with what the issue was … >>>In my head this was a reference to the squeezy willy scene back when Charlie’s wearing that green swimming costume, but I realised nobody’d get that reference, and all it…
Railed
Just thought I’d pop in and say hello HELLO. In the picture above, Jack is helping Skylar with something. And yes, the door is breaking, click-click CRACK goes the poor door frame but don’t worry, for it uses futuristic safety glass and nothing can break that stuff, no not even young Jack’s thrusty efforts. New…
Quick question
Okay, do me a favour – take a look at the draft cover for the next Skybloom comic (this might not be the final image I choose, but it’s a strong contender): … … … okay? Now the question is – out of context and without knowing what positions they’re in –…
Free comic: GRACE. Available here, now
IT’S HERE!! Friday, free comics day woop woop! The all-new standalone comic, Grace, follows the story of a few young enemies as they try to navigate revenge, justice and … maybe … even … reconciliation?! I’m super proud of this project; telling a story without using words is a mad thing to try and do,…
Jen! Jen! Jen! Jen!
Ahhh, this next comic’s going swimmingly, I thought I’d take a little break from ignoring my work duties, and also a break from procrastinating with animations and nonsense in Poser, to bring the spotlight onto our lovely Jen. I know the comic’s about her sister, but Jen is really cool too. I could just easily…
GNNNNGK?!!
Okay two things … firstly, did anyone download the zipped PNG version of Lithium 13 and … could they please re-up it somewhere so I can share it again? Update: this is now done! Thank you wonderful people! No, no, haha, I did not just randomly delete my original copy of the pages! Hahaha, haha…
Giveaway #1: Jilly and Ernest
Get them while they’re hot! Being the kind soul I am, I thought I’d give them away for free – Jilly and Ernest characters for V4, you’ll need the software (ie. Poser 3D) but apart from that they’re complete characters. I’ve just bundled it up in one big zipped folder, including dependencies – I mean…
Change of plan! Next comic out before Christmas!!!!
OMG ok … I’ve just put together the first 120 pages of Lithium #5 and, let’s be honest, 120 pages is enough for your average comic – thing is, if I stick to the script plan, the final comic #5 will be definitely over 280 pages – and that’s just nuts so I’m doing some…
It’s happening.
^ Barely even counts as a spoiler, but yeah there’s some new people. OK … I have completed all of the rendering for Lithium #10*. The comic will not be quite out this week I don’t think, because I still need to do all the bubbles and put like 20 pages together. But I think…
How to 3D [part 2, from Domdate]. Hard work does pay off. Eventually.
Disqus (the awful comment system) deleted a huge, massive comment from a fan a few months back, and I only just noticed. So that all of Domdate’s hard work typing this comment out doesn’t go unnoticed, I am going to reproduce it here in this blog post. Note this comment came before my post about…
The great scifi book discussion!
Scifi books are amazing! JakeDude asked me what my top 10 scifi books were, and though I’ve discussed a few books on this blog over the years, it got me thinking and I thought HECK I’ll just open the discussion up. So vote, get involved, gimme your all-time top books too. I’ve read zillions of…
Suffer! Lolololol
I was talking to someone yesterday, who said their meditation method focused on reducing their own suffering. Now … bear with me … on the face of it, this makes sense, I mean who wants to suffer? Except … still bear with me … I completely disagree with that philosophy. If we prioritise the removal…
Well … this next comic …
… is just … I mean I logged on especially, purely to gush about it. And I almost never do that. This is going to be the best comic yet. By miles. I’ve been working on it, and … well … I seem to spend most of the time biting my bottom lip and squinting…
Decent onesies
Ok, so slightly awkward confession here, I went down a bit of an internet rabbit hole this week and discovered the joys of … onesies? There’s Rule 34, sure, but I was slightly surprised to find some excellent potential for onesies out there. However, as you may know, porn is rubbish! There’s no love, no…
The Eggiest of all the Eggy Eggs
Okay, you know how I like to put film/TV and niche pop culture references in my comics, well there’s also self-referential consistency MADNESS in every comic, too. Here are the top 10 silly ones from Lithium #10 … how many did you spot?! ^ circled in red is Skylar’s goddamn TOAST which she dropped…
Lithium comic 9 … under development!
Whaaaat? I’ve already done the first 25 pages of the next comic?!?! Goodness me, what a busy little bugger I am! This next comic is not only going to have the utterly greatest title of all time, it’s also going to include … well let’s be honest there may be some nudity. But do you…
STFW … catalogued!
Holy smokes, I was just searching for an image from OHB as I couldn’t be bothered to find my comics hard drive, and I’ve stumbled upon someone putting together a pretty comprehensive-looking guide to the STFW comics universe! Great work to whoever is doing this (‘R0’? ‘Oblomov’? Who knows who the author is, comment below…
Skybloom imminent! Ish!
Okay [minors spoilers although these images could be anything – she might have stepped on lego] it won’t be this weekend because I need to do most of the speech bubbles, BUT! IT! WON’T! BE! LONG! Let’s say Tuesday although knowing me, it’ll be … sooner. AAAAaaaanyway, yeah if you even just semi-enjoyed Skybloom comic…
Working on #7
I’ve finished the first scene for comic 7, giggled most of the way through it, and didn’t need to re-render a single thing, which is always a good sign. Or maybe it means my eyesight and/or sense of quality control is fading … heck, either way, I’m happy. Anyway, here’s some dev renders for getting…
A plethora of body shapes
Well after 8 months of putting my little comics on the interwebs, I can safely say the comics have had in the region of tens of millions of views. That’s quite a lot! Well done, everybody, have a biccie. And with popularity comes interesting information from people all round the world ~ I had an…
Cover preview thingy tiramisu have a break little delay but nice thingy yum yum
OK! I have a plan. Life has done that thing of avalanching in, but fear not, the comic is almost there. Wish I could release the comic today as anticipated, but I need to (1) finish the last 10 pages of speech bubbles (won’t take long), and then (2) I need a couple of hours…
Free from fear.
Last summer, one or two guys messaged me with warnings galore about how I shouldn’t dare make any kind of political comment in my upcoming comic because all my fans would desert me and nobody would read my comics anymore, and I’d lose literally half of my readership. I mean clearly I ignored the warnings…
Lithium Comic 12: The Living Doll
Lithium 12 is finally complete! It’s a great big, huge, monstrous 167 page adventure, and there’s a ton of stuff that happens … too much to list here, but suffice to say I’m pretty proud of this one, for all sorts of reasons, hehe. It’s funny, silly and … whisper it … there is some…
Be excellent to each other …
SPOILERS ok so my life has calmed down a bit and I’ve had a chance to do one of my favourite things! Masturbating … I mean creating comics, wahooo!!! Here are a couple of spoilers from the upcoming comic, I’d say I’ve done about 10% of the rendering so we’re nowhere near the getting…
The Great Big Update!
What makes this the great big update?!?!!?! Okay nothing, I just noticed I’ve been so snowed with work I haven’t had time to indulge my slightly wankier self for a bit, and have left this poor blog, and the associated imaginings to gather dust ~ sorry about that. However! I’m back. I have ten thousand…
Epiphanies R us – for superfans
Hello, it’s me again. Yay! In the penultimate Human Being comic, someone said they wished there was more detail about the specific transition of Mike, from his desolation to his security, his peace. It’s a good question, and prob one we all want the answer to, at one time or another (or constantly, sure). Hopefully…
Haters! Lovers! HHHHUUUMANNNSSSSSS
This is mostly a bunch of renders with our young couple to test new lighting and skin. And a massive rambling discussion on the topic of hate and love as well, sure, sure. I had a really interesting few chats with some very difficult humans recently, and the wonderful thing I discovered, is that love…
It downs the blouse, precious
Frustrated by my recent experience of Poser, I thought I’d just make a new thingy with one of the 3D scenes someone bought me (thanks for the treehouse, ASF0_render!), so here are a bunch of random renders. Basically I threw Jilly into the scene in her default pose, put Marcus’s sports top and Charlie’s shoes…
Young Mary Poppins-sah!
Quick request before we get into the boobies – does anyone have the iconic HG Wells time machine (pictured) in some basic 3d format like 3DS or OBJ that they can share a download link for please? Don’t email me cos I can’t access my emails – comment below! I’ve googled everywhere and it doesn’t…
Slow progress, fast progress
I tend to have these bursts of creativity, know what I mean? Sure you do. And then I spend some of them on my work and get burnout (but working means I can afford food, so … you know … I kinda have to keep doing it), and then I switch off for a bit,…
Lips, boobs, and wonder
A few weeks back, BobC commented about Jilly’s top lip from Kinfolk; and although that may seem like a strange and random thing to notice, I thought I’d write about it because heck it’s actually an important little detail I’ve worked on for some time! Bear with me, there are lovely boobies in this blog…
Eggies and baldies, oh and VOTE HARRIS please, my god wtf ‘merica
*There’s an egg in my head* *Sshhhh, me too* As the 3D software I use continues to get patched in stages, and I’m driven to hide people’s haircuts just to make the software usable, I have come up with a temporary solution: baldness. I simply take every [problematic] hair-growth object in the 3D scene and…
Wrong order, does not compute.
As you may know, if you know me in person, I tend not to … do things in order. Sorry about that. I have basically been working on Lithium #4, and have decided to chop Lithium #3 in half, because it was getting to 110+ pages and becoming ungainly. This is kinda good news for…
Religious abuse, lololol so so so so sexy
Thought I’d take a quick break from real life to update everyone on the comic: I managed to squeeze in a comiccy session yesterday and so we’re up to 120 ish pages and only half a sex scene to create/render. So we’re on schedule for next week – ish. Perhaps. Late next week. Maybe. Also,…
So … I’m working on a comic …
… it’s called *checks notes* … The Hydrogen Comic, or something like that. Molybdenum? Manganese? It’s some element … got a few electrons orbiting with each other, and then a third electron in another orbit. Huh. It’s almost as if … anway. I’m working on Calcium Comic 8, and wouldn’t ya know, I’ve just spaffed…
Patriarchy and Barbie
So … I saw the Barbie movie. It’s great. Or if you’re troubled by it; it’s a bit challenging, and that’s good. Even better, in fact. Either way, definitely worth a watch. Is it perfect? No. I think it is a bit problematic in places, but that doesn’t detract from the overall message; that no…
Maybe … probably … next week!
By the pale cones of mercy … new comic out next week! Probably! Don’t quote me on it, stuff happens, but all being well it’ll be out soon 🙂 It’s a heady mix of post-renaissance whimsy and pre-industrialisation … errr … nudity. I’ve done about 150 pages so far and there’s just a little tidying…
Kinder Haiku
Okay, we’re 110 pages in to Kinfolk #2, and phewff! Turns out it’s going to be a lovely little voyage, this one. I’ve tried to make quiet moments, sort of enjoy the scenery kind of breaks amongst the silly chats or the nudity [or both] … as I think that was a strength of the…
The wisdom of a captured soldier. Удивительная мудрость пленного русского солдата
Hello! Pheweee, boobies eh?!?! Aaaanyway, this incredible video of a Russian soldier has been released. Here is the source. As this blog is still currently available in Russia, and as my blog has a substantial following from within Russia (esp Moscow), here is a simple message of solidarity with the people of Russia, of peace….
Fresh worlds and new dreams
Thanks everyone for kind comments about the recent Lithium comic, I’m glad people liked it! Someone said that final page (William Bartock’s Yee haa) was like a horror story, haha! It’s a fair point, not sure what the future holds for that cheeky little bugger, lol. Although … Skylar did introduce that doll as “A…
A very, very big waste of time.
You know how sometimes you work on something and … at the time you think it’s IMPORTANT and SUBSTANTIAL and is therefore okay to ignore all other responsibilities because it is just so IMPORTANT, and that’s mostly down to you really really getting into it? I’ve basically just wasted *checks notes* … yes … yep,…
New comic will be here tomorrow!
Woop woop! Ok it’s all done, I’m just going to do a final read-through tomorrow morning when I get a chance, then upload. Eeee! It’s a good one hehehehhh 🙂 Nearly … hhrrhrhrhhhhnnnn …. [Warning: may contain multiple examples of bottom things]
Random comic update!
Aieeeee! OK: Comic pages complete: 118Renders complete to: page 140 ish3D scenes still to create: like … four ish? Not muuuuuch!!! All the sex scenes are done, it’s just chatting and front cover page now yeayyyyy!! Here’s a non-spoiler image, of some … boobs … and someone about to … pick up a gun?…
Nibble nibble
I do still exist, I promise. Sorry about the radio silence. OK, quick sitrep: I’ve got roughly 99.9% of comic #10 to produce in any way. I mean, sure I’ve done a few trooper poses, but really we’re looking at roughly … not much. Apart from making lots of silly gif animations, as you can…
Complexes
Here’s a little video showing the complexity of the new spaceship I’ve been working on. Yes, it’s madness. This is a quick zoom through the wireframe, from the spherical dock / airlock chamber at the bottom of the ship, through living quarters (figures lying in stasis rn), up the ladder to the completely indecipherable cockpit,…
Oooooh it’s sunnnyyyyy!!!
It’s SUNNY? Madness, madness, it can’t be, don’t tell me the world keeps revolving and the seasons and the dawns and the new growth never gives up?!?! Splendid. Quick update on Lithium 8: it’s humming along nicely. In fact there’s only one and a half scenes left! In a comic of a zillion scenes that…
And the winner is … camisole!
OK. Lots of votes for all of the outfits for Charlie; lots of people like the cheerleader outfit and the cami and the ski suit and the jumper but let’s face it … the cheerleader thing is stupid (but it’s not like this is a sensible comic so…), and the cami is the most believable….
