Home of the Lithium Comic, One Human Being, and other absurdly sexy comics. Plus boobies, bums, willies, stuff like that.
Oh God I’m SO sick of hearing about Coronavirus that I’ve come out of a break from the blog just to blog about it. It’s that bad. People are sharing the crappest links from clickbait articles (ie. Medium; I’m not even going to link it) and even TV news is being sensationalist to try and…
Do you like erotic comics? Do you like pure joy?!?!! Well … as a little mid-summer treat, I have just been sent the pre-release draft of The Rather Magnificent Family Bubble part #4, which will apparently be out in a few days – and honestly, it’s brilliant. Tira has used my free orange dress V4…
Lithium comic #11 is complete, it’s here, and it’s ridiculously sexy! Hooray! A lovely continuation of the absurd Lithium storyline, includes poopoos, meta commentary, Avril Lavigne lyrics … okay it’s a little crazy, fine. Download it, read it, let me know what you think! 💅 Here’s the download link. 👈 🦄 🌈 🔥 Loading… Or…
It’s Friday, FREE COMIC DAY, and the very final OHB comic is here! Hooray! I’ll be honest, writing a whole series of comics about your own [current] beliefs around the human condition, what makes us us, is pretty difficult! Which is why I didn’t try too hard, and just let it sort of happen. This…
I keep seeing possessive new years resolutions stuff around the place. 2020 is going to be MY year. MINE. My precioussss … I mean sure it’s good to go into the future with a positive outlook, but I kinda think we need a culture that understands fresh starts isn’t just an annual event; it’s a…
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…
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,…
It turns out I’m racing through this comic and we’ve done at least half now. Which is kinda awesome, because I’ve been thinking about / delaying this one for about a year or something ridiculous (when did Lithium #9 come out?! When did I write this dang series?!?!? Yonks ago, that’s when), so it’s really…
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…
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. I’m at 90 pages complete, and have been test-reading it along with the music and I…
Hey everybody! In one of my particular spheres of work, this time of year is referred to as ‘the silly season’, and I’m kinda warming to the name because, let’s face it … things go a bit silly. Silly is nice sometimes, sure. But sometimes silly is also a bit tiring and a bit much,…
… continuing from my previous post, did I realise I’d based Charlie on Jamie Lee Curtis? I did not. Is the evidence extremely compelling? Judge for yourself … Literally didn’t mean to copy that scene, I promise. It just occurred to me there might be similarities, and … just … like … take those first…
I’ve done a few comics now, and I’ve found it’s easier / quicker / a better outcome, when I go through the scripts and edit really harshly. I always have to think to myself “Is this sexy, funny or making a serious point?” and if it’s not – it HAS to go, otherwise I’m wasting…
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,…
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…
OK this post has nothing to do with ham, I just didn’t want to write the word ‘harm’. This isn’t a big rant or a dark self harm story, though don’t worry. Basically, right, I went to some festivals recently … I know. If you’re an introvert, you’ll know what a big/horrific deal this is!…
*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…
If you haven’t read the latest comic. Read it. It’s out. Really glad everyone liked it; the average rating was 10/10, which is cool, so thank you. Someone mentioned it was nice to read through the feedback a few comics ago, so I thought I’d just paste the first 150 or so comments below. Pictured…
I was thinking, I could give away any / all of my 3D poser characters (along with a list of dependencies), and maybe some custom scenes and then run a 3D competition. Would be really fun to see what people did with my characters, hehehh. So who should I do? I’ve got this little alien…
Are you an I.T. engineer? Or a tech/computer wizard of some sort? Or, heck, even have a very basic grasp of the existence of computer hardware? Well, settle down; everybody gather round and prepare for a tale that will chill you to your very soul. My render PC has been a bit iffy recently, not…
Alright listen, I love 3D characters, sure. But having used many over the years, I still keep coming back to Victoria4, or ‘V4’, which was designed in about 2006. And I do give new 3D models a chance, you know, I try different ones when they come out. But they suffer basic things, that I…
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…
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….
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…
Hello! OK so there’s good news and bad news, bad news is I think my rendering machine might be properly bust ~ yes of course everything’s backed up, but the motherboard is literally fried, even though the ram and CPUs are happy; joints and stuff are to blame, and I really don’t want to go…
Okay let’s have some good news instead of squinting at our screens at the political situation in America or the environmental / arable crop situation in Spain; the next Lithium comic is a-cooking!! I’ve done 110 pages now, and there’s maybe 10-15 pages to go, yayy! Blimey, it’s been ages this one, with Madiy &…
Okay, as you may know I originally hail from the great and slightly iffy country of England, and so this last weekend was a major one because … you know, kings and crowns and pedestals and service and madness and all that. And I do currently find myself within these blessed shores. I don’t have…
Thanks for the lovely comments etc on the blog about me needing a break, especially to the loads of you who said that comic I was trying to find was Pet Elf – thanks everyone. Especially the actual author!! Amazing! Anyway, on the me-needing-a-break thing, I’ve done what people tend to do when they’re in…
I’ve just looked at the stats for this blog, and judging by the technology (an old Blackberry or a WiiU or an XBox browser …), this tech implies that there are some very cheeky children about the place! If you’re under 18 and are visiting this blog on a Nintendo 3DS or whatever, late at…
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…
Big thanks to a few people who’ve bought lots from my wishlist recently! Very generous, thank you. Someone commented that I should charge therapy rates for my comics, haha that’s a fine idea! Glad they have some impact in what does seem a rather dark world, especially right now. Lots could be said about these…
Interesting that I’ve had a good few bits of feedback from people saying the moment with the henchmen in the latest comic was the most touching / got them in a deep place. I know what you mean, having the lowest-of-the-low henchmen mercenary type people be wonderful to each other is a bit special/unusual. I…
It’s free. It’s here. It’s sexy. It’s … slightly absurd. After a whole year, Lithium Comic #10 is finally here! WWOOOOOPPPP!!! And it is called … drum roll … ULTIMATE FAMILY FIASCO! Hooray! What a silly name, what a silly cover, what a freaking epic. I have to say, I am extremely pleased with this…
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…
Okay listen, OH WAIT Happy new year etc etc! If you made it this far, collect five ‘cool’ points. <insert worst gif ever /> Sorry for not writing anything for ages but you know, life does that thing sometimes, doesn’t it? And if I’m honest, I genuinely think the next Lithium is going to be…
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…
This is what test renders look like – rather than render a whole scene I’m often just rendering the bit that’s hardest to get right, to save time it’s normally just the face (cos expressions are hard), or the ‘bits’ that are touching (to make sure there’s no pokethrough / overlap or whatever), like fingers,…
Hello! I know what you’re thinking; “Wow, this is a futuristic blog, full of wonder and joy, I shall bookmark that MF tout de suite!” And you’d be right; go with your instinct, I’d say. This will be the home to two free comic series which intertwine: the ‘Lithium’ comic series, and ‘One Human, Being’…
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…
I try and be a human, and I do have these amazing sparks of joy and connection … but then it seems everything kinda catches up with me and it all stops and I feel a bit like a paper-thin marionette. Know what I mean? Hey I’ve got it all sussed! I’m amazing wahoo! Oh…
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…
It’s always amusing reading the comments submitted on my comics, it’s been especially entertaining seeing how people change as they get older – 80% of the comments from people in the 18-25 category are half-formed, self-prioritising claptrap straight out of Justin Biebers how-to archipelago of consumer misery. Whining and ego leading the charge of the…
Having got 80% of the way through comic #4, it turns out it’s been a heavy night for Charlie and Jack, so we need a quick vote for outfits. I know … onerous task, but Charlie’s character does change outfits every 5 seconds, and this is an annoying symptom (having to decide what’s next), but…
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 –…
Apparently there’s new rules in the UK for age verification of adult websites, meaning I might have to close this site? Hmmm. Hopefully not. I have no idea how to apply age verification stuff on this website – especially not for free, anyone know of WP plugins etc I could use to block the site…
*panting* … *still panting* OKAY QUICK UPDATE! The [total shit] British Government is falling apart! Hoorayyyy!!!! The comic is at 140 pages complete! Hoorayyyy!! The weather is lovely and the wonder of the World is full and mysterious and BURSTING with the quiet music RN! Yesssss!!! Ah, when Boris Johnson gets 48 hours of the…
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…
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…
OK! I’m feeling a little better about this whole ultra-mega-ridiculous comic thing rn, which is always good! I’ve done a few scene setups and a little edit of the text and it sort of comes together more neatly now. I don’t think this is going to be the final Lithium comic; I say that because…
Although I wrote the Lithium plot a few years back, the very end has been a little flexible and has gone through a few changes. (This isn’t it, don’t worry – we’ve got a few more comics to go yet.) The path Karen’s on needs some careful weaving. I think authors too often write the…
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…
Just occasionally you do a piece of work and you can step back and go “yes”. Tap-tap Know what I mean? Even your harsh inner critic has to shut the f#ck up and nod gently. For that brief moment, your periods of self hatred or lack of confidence or imposter syndrome or inferiority complex or…
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…
Thought I’d pop in to update everyone on my meanderings, and discuss Lithium #12’s rather Nostradamus-esque powers regarding a certain BBC newsreader. As the UK headlines the last few weeks will tell you, Huw was a news anchor for twenty entire squeaky-clean years … until some great big underage sex scandal got out. It may…
OK wonderful people of the internet, I have too many options right now so you have to help me decide stuff. There’s an anonymous form below, please use it to help me and I’ll try my best to finish the comic in the next week!!! VOTE GOGOGO!! I don’t want to spoil anyone’s fun, but…
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…
While reading Oblomov’s updates to their extraordinary STFW wiki (serious props to Oblomov again), I happened across the Music section. For a few years I had wondered about making a sort of STFW playlist on Spotify, but the reason I didn’t, was I’d never remember what music references there had been – but hey presto!…
It’s funny, I always get tons of visits to my blog ramping up towards a new Lithium comic (understandably), then after the mad flurry of the comic release it generally then dies down for a few months. Not many people check my blog after a Lithium has gone out, assuming there won’t be anything else…
HOT OFF THE PRESS! Okay I’ve received one almighty heads-up that our dear friend-in-common and fave author, Tira Yugen has finally had enough and ditched the mighty Gogggle in favour of Tumblr … (also Goggle but hey I won’t mention it if you don’t). So … go there for updates I guess > https://www.tumblr.com/tirayugen *Drums…
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…
Someone mentioned recently that they dig my references to ‘both-and’. Thanks; yeah I think we [society] miss that stuff so much – a quick look at Twitter will reveal that nuance and paradox are not exactly commonly understood. Then a friend messaged me this link on the who’s-bad, who’s-good thing: https://thereforenow.com/2011/09/the-tax-collector-with-the-pharisees-speech-in-his-pocket/ It’s interesting, that. And…
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…
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…
Phew. What a lot of feedback everyone’s given on the recent comic! Well done, everybody. Comments ranged from “Worst part ever in all comics” to “The best one yet!” – so that’s … quite the range, hahaha! (^ Marks out of 10) Looks like the vast majority of people enjoyed it really – and it…
Thought I’d make a comprehensive comicsy blog post, for those budding graphics enthusiasts! Comics don’t need to be sexy/erotic (you heard it here first), they can just be fun one-page stories! Yay! 3D stuff If you want to do it in 3D, here’s how I do it Giveaway: Templates are below ↓ I mean sure,…
Okay just before I release Skybloom #2 (which is taking a while as I need to add speech bubbles to 150 pages!) – quick query for one person who commented on my blog a while back … Desertfox, if I was to turn the more sofabed-based parts of your personal story into a ‘based on…
Oh look! I’ve done a free comic! My goodness! Well, here we are, click the link, download the thing. Done! Download as a single PDF (Or download as a folder of PNGs) This first comic is a gentle introduction of characters and their various foibles. It’s a quiet, awkward dance between the two main peeps…
