Dress for success

Trouble with scifi is any materials are possible, so it’s difficult to have ‘spacey’, shiny materials and remember to keep it believable. I figure the subtle approach is always best, as there’ll always be people, throughout time, who don’t want to actually wear tinfoil and clingfilm, and prefer to slouch around in jeans and comfortable…

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…

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),…

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…

DOUBLE HITLER?!

Das ist sehr gut!

I’ve just noticed that some wonderful human being, from the great wide web of information-connected human beings, has started translating my comics into German!! Awesome! I was just looking at e-hentai to see if someone had kindly shared Skybloom yet and lo! A great bunch of other stuff on there. Gave me a little warm…

A few render tests

Okay we’re 35 pages complete of Kinfolk #2, and I’m just out of the first scene and last night I made some different setups – like posing the characters in different scene/lighting situations, ready for the next bits of the comic. This is the fun part really – getting my Barbie and Ken dolls into…

Giveaway #5: polyp elves

As mentioned in the comic, the Rumina character was actually given away years back by a generous content creator – so really I’m just passing on my lighting and materials settings (and some custom body morphs) to make this character into my ‘Rumina’ doll. Two characters included, should be everything you need in the runtimes;…

HELLO I HAVE FINISHED ALL OF THE RENDERING

let’s freaking celebrate! I’ve completed the pics for the next comic; and this isn’t just any 50-page weakling, it’s up there with Lithium #7 – it’s like 220+ pages of pure, raw, Sindy. As previously blogged, this upcoming comic is the first time I’ve not tried to explain everything; it’s more dense, more metaphorical, more…

New character extravaganza!!!

OK I’m having great fun making tons of new people. It’s always nice prepping scenes, though I have to admit I’d been a bit slow with some of the scenes because my ideas kinda outstrip my technical skills! Anyway, characters are easy to make, so here’s a few … You can’t repel boobies of this…

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…

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…

Some random update and a plan B

Hello! OK, plan B if my blog dies / Google decide they don’t like me any more (I don’t know why they would decide this, because let’s face it I’m lovely and my comics and blogs are all full of wholesome goodness, but you know, some people are prudes and don’t like boobies and willies…

A new hope

So I’ve had a little break from Lithium, celebrated the completion of 0HB, and have been pondering and writing a little. Thoroughly recommend it tbh! Write your shit down, people – seriously it does wonders. Hahaha, aahhhh, Skylar.

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….

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…

One hundred and FIFTY pages!

Okay I’m ploughing through the final Lithium comic, like a … plough through a … ploughable … yoghurt? Also, as I’ve been producing it and going through the Lithium lore, I was pondering this whole thing about the Narnia series – you know there’s all these references to The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe…

Crashy & mad

So I’ve written Madiy & Crash to the finish – turns out there’s only two more comics to this mini series, and although it takes a pretty serious turn for the worse (don’t worry, that’s not a spoiler, it’s almost certainly not what you think … or if it is, it’ll be ages before we…

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.

Dark hierarchy scenery go go go

I’ve put together some more scenes to start to show the extent of the baddie’s lair up on the moon-moon, and honestly it took no time at all! Mostly the problem with this stuff is lighting – it makes such a massive difference to the feel of a place. It’s all about Chiaroscuro. The ‘tank…

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…

Fifty naughty boys

Anyone who’s done any 3D will have learnt the lesson that as soon as you add objects your scene rendering time jumps up – add five chairs and things slow down, add three people and you triple the processing maths; human characters are particularly complex. So you’ll probably appreciate this test render. Fifty actual people…

Render tests

I’m ploughing along merrily, and testing lighting briefly as I zap another batch of 3D wonderment into my computer’s poor render queue, and the little machine winces noticeably at me.

Skylar: detailed development

It’s always good when you’ve got the basic ‘look’ of someone. Know what I mean?

She is fairly stacked, it…

TWO HUNDRED PAGES

Okay I have a bit of a tradition of choosing vaguely nice page numbers to complete my comics on, like I’d be happy with 56, 128 or 69 obviously, but 53? No. 141? Non. 179? NEIN! So I’m rather pleased to announce that the very final Lithium comic, released by probably the end of this…

OK I’ve done the cover …

Having caught myself slightly off-guard by deciding to release the next Lithium comic at the 120-page mark rather than plough on and include the next few scenes (which will take a month or two), I had to then decide on the cover. Part of me wanted to just have Skylar in the freeze tube thing,…

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.

A very minor spoiler

I’m thinking this next comic is probably going to be called something like Bathtime, except having made most of the comic, it’s really not about that. So this is a very minor spoiler indeed.

Initial character ideas

I wanted to create a comic with just a few characters, and tons of awkward ‘human’ situations. Because they’re the funniest.

Tipping point

The quiet project

Now and then it’s good to clear the ol’ noggin and work on something completely different. I had planned to plough through Lithium 8 and get it out before Christmas (have completed the first few scenes), but looking at timings and stuff I think that’d just be a bit stressful. So I think I’ll do…

It downs the blouse, precious

The big-boobs little-boobs dilemma

Behind the scenes …

I thought it’d be funny to show some of my slapdash 3D behind-the-scenes work, show the other side of whatever scenes, from the camera’s point of view, so you can see how badly I cheat when creating these things … Perfectly reasonable for the comic, and then from the opposite angle … OW MY FACE…

Nab0kov’s final phase

In Vladimir Nab0kov’s most famous controversial book, the main character goes through three distinct phases: the approach, the act, and the fallout.  This is often the storyteller’s thing, but I firmly believe there is a forth phase available to all humans: transcendence. We learn from our own story and we change. We change, we become…

Cover fiasco
