Indiana Jones …

OK it’s doing my head in that I don’t have any Indiana Jones references in my comics yet, and my stupid damn alias is Sindy Anna Jones. This is obviously unacceptable and I need closure. So … HELP ME! What’s your favourite Indiana Jones quote / moment / reference that I should crowbar into the…

Skylar: detailed development

It’s always good when you’ve got the basic ‘look’ of someone. Know what I mean? Like, I guess it’s the same for writers, you get a feel for what someone’s character should be and then everything pours from that. So this is our local (to the planet Ethealdor) contact, Skylar. She is fairly stacked, it…

Fapping heck!

A sneak peak at the imminent comic. There’s a running theme of Charlie gettingherself off every time anything happens. Well. You know. Art imitating life … Well what an extraordinary response to the previous post; I’ve had 140 comments in the previous day or two. Obviously anonymous forms are the way to go! Feeling very…

Growing up

OK, this is an animated gif (in case you didn’t watch it for long enough …). I’m not doing one of those ridiculous “Oh my god my tits just tripled in size!” things like you get in some comics, HOWEVER … changing shape as you get older  is part of life whatever your age/gender: we…

Droids

  OK fine, I’m working on the next comic. FINE! I admit it. I say ‘working’, it’s not really working really is it? It’s procrastination from my actual workload.  Which is substantial. Ah well, let’s hope my boss doesn’t find this blog. Only kidding I don’t have a boss; as we all know I’m a…

Wonder

  OK sitrep: it turns out that having a break to let your brain untangle is absolutely flipping amazing! 10/10 would recommend, it is ok not to be ok, we all need to look after ourselves now and then. Rest is part of resilience after all! Yay! 🙂 So … the comic!! I’m just getting…

A lovely break

Here’s a selection of some of the boobier images uploaded to this blog over the years, because I figure there will be a lot of people out there who would prefer a break from some of the absolute political jackassery going on all round the world rn, and didn’t come to this particular blog for…

Comic previews …

OK we’re nearing the final few scenes of Lithium 9: speech bubbles are even done up to page like 130 or something, so we’re getting through it! Yay! To celebrate, here are two comic page previews which don’t give anything away. I’ll do them as links so if you really don’t want any spoilers whatsoever,…

Skybloom comic 1: Unprofessional

It’s here. I’ve been taking my time with different concepts, different storylines – I mean if you sit down and try to write the human experience into chunks, it begs the question, where to begin? Well, the OHB series kinda started with self worth, Lithium takes the casual approach to freedom from guilt and control,…

Redheads

After including an exclusively red-headed family in Kinfolk, based on someone I knew at primary school, I was reminded just how much I really do love ginger hair! What a beautiful thing our species is gifted with, eh? Quite right. And our wonderful redheads are hardly well represented by the slightly grotesque Thomson family ……

Help me tweak the next script!

OK I’ve done 100 pages on the next comic, with speech bubbles and everything, largely because I’d already done 200 renders over the summer and they were sitting there in a folder. So that’s good! Also good: I’d forgotten about them, and they’re flipping hot. Lithium comic #5 is going to be a trouser-breaker. A…

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…

Big irrelevant pink dick

I thought this’d be funny, make a big-donged alien creature, maybe have it knock on the airlock door of the colony in Skybloom … and then I thought … nah. Anyone read that comic where a teen girl humps her pet? It’s … [googles] … called Dark Rift by Epoch – anyway I quite enjoyed…

Rendering!!!!! Hooooly smokes

I so want to share tons of renders here but it’d all be spoilers, so it’s … hard. And wet. Oh heck, this next comic is going to be pretty good.   You never know, you know? You have this idea in your head, and this script in your hands (and by hands I mean laptop),…

Operation ‘Airhead’ completed

After a little tweaking and clothing effort, the lovely Skylar character is good to go 🙂 I’m not really going for ‘airhead’, which is too pejorative, I’m sort of aiming for someone who can legit represent innocence. You know? Like, they’re always in any group of people, sometimes they’re wolves in sheeps clothing, but the…

The Lithium Comic. 05: In Tents

Comic five is here! Wahoooo! In our last comic, we learnt the dark family secret that mean aunt Karen had been hiding. Tsss, that woman. Our young heroes managed to survive the news, but now need to figure out the next tentative steps in this already controversial relationship. Fingers crossed it goes well, eh? Download…

Minor bookish spoilers …

I know what you’re thinking: what could be a sexier detail than a tiny pink bow added to a pair of knickers? Well, I’ll tell you: a book. A freaking trashy book. Pictured on the right is the default ‘book’ in Poser; a featureless block of nonsense. So there aren’t any good default book props….

Hair.

I dropped the soap on the bathroom floor this morning, and WOWEE I did not think such a quick splat could collect quite so many pubes. But here we are, I thought, as I tried to redeem the situation and return the soap to its original form, desperately scrabbling against a torrent, nay a WIG…

Much redeye, very grief

Hello you lovely humans! Lots of people say they like the humanity in my comics, which means they get the whole human -turmoily thing, the whole awkward, touching, weirdy comicsy thing. Which is kinda why I write them. So I know people’ll get when I say that this summer has been a bit of a…

Why are my comics free?

I (very) often get asked this. Why are they free, what’s your patreon, how can I send you money etc etc. The reason I give them away for free is because life is about substantially more than accruing as much money as possible. I live comfortably enough and I am content with who I am…

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…

A lovely June day …

It’s sunny, wonderful things are happening all around the world, and … whisper it … there is another free Lithium comic on its way! Yay! Here in sunny Europe, we haven’t even heard anything about the American President for months, which if I’m totally honest, is a massive, massive relief! Phew. Let’s hope those amazing…

Comic update …

  Happy Friday everyone! Here are two bits of good news (I mean aside from the existence of this whole new website thingy! Welcome!); [1] I’m nearing the last couple of scenes for Lithium #12, so if you feel like you’ve waited a looong time for it then well done you! I’m super busy with…

The slow brain.

  Maybe it’s the Skylar part of me (I hope it is), but I do have this tendency to slow my thoughts and actions to a snail’s pace when it comes to certain levels of change. Einstein reckoned ability to change was a sign of intelligence, which doesn’t bode well for me recently because change…

Votes are in …

Goodness, what an active lot you are!! We had nearly 150 votes in 24 hours, which is quite extraordinary for a Tuesday/Wednesday morning. There are major companies who dream of that kind of interaction. Mwah-ha-haaa … boobies. Anyway thank you, everybody. Funnily enough, there was rather a clear winner for our cover vote, and being…

Shame and wonder and space things

I just read a fascinating [/batshit-crazy] book [/terrifying sex horror pulp fiction], which was excellent [/scared me to my very horny soul], by a scifi writer called Philip Jose Farmer. I’d read one of his books before, it was about *checks notes* ah yes, Tarzan escaping helicopter megalomaniacs and humping everything from gorillas to rambunctious…

Great news, everyone!

Okay fine, Lithium #12 won’t be the last comic in that series. FINE! I’ve been thinking about it, and reading my notes for wrapping it all up, and I think if I kept it within a single comic it’d be near 300 pages to do it justice, which is just silly and would take like…

Ooooohhhh … not long … hrnnngg …

Someone said they wondered what our voyeur neighbours made of all this, and I wasn’t going to bother adding them in (it’s already total mayhem plot), but heck I just couldn’t resist.

Karen

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,…

STFW … catalogued!

Language, Timothy!

Someone rightly pointed out that I put a grammatical error in Skybloom #2, and it got me thinking about language and our journeys so I’m turning it into a blog post! (This blog isn’t really about grammar, don’t worry.) On page 39, the phrase “There was a naturalness to Sophie and I ….” should be…

Time for a good wash.

I made a little bathroom, previewed in an earlier blog. Well, thing is I got carried away and did about 12 renders of these guys sharing a bath and getting more than a little rambunctious. Not that that’s in the comic, I just had the scene and was testing with the characters and … one…

No, no,…

The Truth

I’ve been writing about the truth recently, looking at its role in a world of chaos. So I thought I’d share some of my own truth in the upcoming comic. Not lots, I just mean be a bit more vulnerable I guess. As I’ve alluded to in other posts (eg the Perfection Trap), we (I)…

Almost nothing whatsoever

Just thought I’d pop in to say almost nothing whatsoever! Hooray! Here are a bunch of renders picked completely at random from this ridiculous blog! Hooray!   Okay, maybe not picked completely at random. I’m wondering if we made the toxic masculinity points clearly enough with that guy above, whether we need to revisit him?…

Surprised by turmoil

Lithium is a metal.

Okay fine, I’m working on Lithium #13; we’re 15 pages in, and everybody’s naked. Pretty standard plot really; girl meets boy, boy meets alien, alien meets girl and boy and then girl and boy and alien have sex and stuff, get involved in some shenanigans and learn something. Same as all my other comics tbh….

Sitting up.

Okay look, it’s January, people keep going on about joining a gym and losing weight and blah blah, but I figure the older I get the less fit I’ll be and the less effort I’m planning on putting in, so something’s got to give. So that’s right, Charlie’s going to do my exercise for me….

Invited, uninvited.

Silliness

I rendered an image but this woman’s eyes weren’t pointing quite at Skylar’s boobies, so I had to re-render the eyes. Anyway I thought it’d be funny to turn it into an animated gif. No reason. By the way, what does everyone think about giving her a name? Trouble is I can’t refer to her…

Whining and ego leading the charge of the…

Alrighty then, here’s a minor spoiler or two, but they don’t give anything real away, they’re just for funsees, and to be honest there are a million million little tiny gags like this in Lithium #10, it’s *completely* ridiculous.
