I was talking to a friend recently who said Truth means facts. And I said … no it doesn’t. And they said yes it does, it’s the same word … truth is the same as facts. It’s the same word. And I said … no … it’s not the same word, you can tell because…

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…

Wow, I’ve been busy haven’t I eh? Yes siree. Forgot about the blog for a minute … OK I didn’t but I’ve taken a few more days than normal to get round to writing anything. First-time visitors to the blog would be forgiven for thinking I’m talking total bollocks right now and have no idea…

OK, fine, I admit it. After months of putting it off, I have well and truly got cracking with Lithium comic #10, and I can already say … holy shitballs it is going to be *quite* the comic! Hahaha, aahhhhh. I’ve already done 50 pages, and after so long procrastinating it’s been a great few…

[UPDATE: This is now done, some very kind people sent me the links, so ignore this blog post ENTIRELY]  [Especially that stupid gif] [I’ll leave the article here for posterity, and in case people need to know that I make mistakes all the time, and that’s ok cos our mistakes don’t define us 🙂 ]…

OK I’m writing a proper grown-up blog post that I’ll publish on Saturday, but in the meantime, here’s an old scene file I opened this morning and … added a tie to … Wow, that’s … jazzy, Charlie. What are we thinking there, eh? Who knows, who knows. The marvelous human mind, eh? Never ceases…

So I have this lovely friend, without whom I wouldn’t have been able to do these comics. They … basically … and don’t judge us on this … they pinched a render machine from their work for me. I know, it sounds bad, but the thing is it was an old mainframe piece of kit,…

I was recently threatened by a ‘fan’, saying I shouldn’t something something something … I don’t know, I wasn’t paying attention. I believe I’m capable of making (occasionally ok) decisions, I mean what is this, 1984?! Haha, good times, good times. Enjoy your attempt at intimidation, you are less scary than you think (btw that’s…

… 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…

OK sure I get my sound effects from little boats and such, but the thing is the rendering for Lithium #9 is all done! YEOOOWWW! TOOOOOOT! PAAAAARPPPPP!!! I’m putting little speech bubbles on and fitting the last bunch of pages together, but the scenes and renders are all done. Ish. Almost. OK fine I just…

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,…

Ok fine, I’m struggling to share renders without giving hints about the next comic. There are entire acts I haven’t shared a single render of because it totally gives major spoilers, but stuff like this is fair game, so … In this lovely bottomy image, the lighting meant Charlie’s bottom totally disappeared, so this is…

Stretchy tops, I mean … they’re basically witchcraft. No matter what way your bread is buttered, male or female or trans or nonbinary, the thing is that little stretchy tops are here to stay. And they’re hot, so there’s that. So here’s a Rainbow Brite (basically choosing things from my own childhood) -themed little top…

Never gonna give up being silly.

Do you like sexy comics that make you warm in the crotch but somehow deeply calm?  Do you like group sex? Do you like tentacle sex? And incest? And MASSIVE great explosions?! Do you like comics so beautiful that you will uncontrollably weep with the freaking wonder of everything?!! Do you like boobies? And bottoms?…

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…

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…

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…

OK that title was a Transformers reference for the nerds. I mean, I’m one of them, sure, sure. It seems many people in a certain beloved country are learning the word ‘Autocrat’ for the first time, and seeing what’s been going on behind a certain administration in a new light perhaps. And that’s fine. Sure,…

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…

You know how I like to do Easter Eggs, ok? Both chocolate and nerd-reference variety. Well … this is the Scarab of Destiny. Bear with me … Basically, rather than add a single Henchman/Trooper to a 3D scene at a time, I created this Poser file whereby a whole Fireteam is slaved to a single…

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. Don’t worry lil’ fella, it’ll all be over soon. Couple a’ weeks. Have to admit, I enjoy this phase of the comic creation process; you’ve…

Pictured: hung over. Well, the new comic’s had just under a million hits, and it sounds like people like it, which is great. Extremely great (Nicolas Cage in The Rock reference … oh God I’ve got to stop putting Nicolas Cage references in everything I HAVE A DISEASE HALP). I’ve added the comments to the…

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!…

I’m often helped by writing and/or other creative pursuits. It’s funny how it seems pointless at the time (WHY AM I PAINTING PEBBLES) but looking back we begin to see the point (I’m so glad I painted those pebbles, it turned out it was about working through X trauma, and now I’ve thrown them into…

It’s weird being a European and seeing this stuff, really. Four years ago a Spanish friend of mine was like “They’ve just voted for their Franco, this is going to be interesting”, and maybe every country needs to do this at some point. We (England) seem to be doing it at the moment as well,…

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…

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…

Haha ok ok stop stop! In under a day I’ve had well over a hundred (EDIT: in 2 days I’ve had 300 responses … stop! Stop!) well thought-out submissions to my questionnaire on whether to split the next comic or not, and here’s the conclusion: ultimately it’s summed up by one fan: “Sometimes you want…

Well there’s been some amazing feedback from absolutely tons of people on Lithium #4 – thanks everyone for taking the time to fill out my form, and for your very kind words 🙂 Interestingly, there wasn’t any legit criticism of this comic. Like, none. However, there was quite a lot of whining about the comic…

OK this is a silly post, but … I just went into the Co-op round the corner (it’s a supermarket in England), and my total came to £6.69. And … seeing as I am a FUNCTIONING adult, I literally said that total, out loud, then looked the Co-op checkout guy in the eye and said…

I wanted to create a comic with just a few characters, and tons of awkward ‘human’ situations. Because they’re the funniest. OK, maybe not funniest but they do happen and are all part of the great wonderful fiasco of real life. And they’re great (like scifi) for getting to the core of what makes us,…

^ Ignore the wig I watched the 80s film Trading Places recently, and whilst wading through the horrific (mostly intentional, but still…) racism, sexism, bad one-liners, and … I wait is that … oh myyyy … Jamie Lee Curtis. I hear what you’re saying, and what I hear is … Jamie Lee Curtis. My first…

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…

^ 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…

You know when you log into your email and you have a hundred emails from people asking for permission to access a *public* document, that the system isn’t working. Google Drive is a nightmare for some people, they accidentally delete shared folder contents (apparently), and can’t find the download link for PDFs (apparently). And if…

 Ah, the human body eh? Here one day, gone the next. VERY here some days, and if you’re anything like me, pretty much a stack of crap the next. It can do amazing things, and … anyway, I digress. Orgasms though … hold on, I’m still digressing. Ahem. Hoohhh. I’ve been putting together the apartment,…

Anyone who’s written anything knows at some point you have to make up new stuff. This is one of those times, and to be honest it’s quite good fun! We’re fitting a legacy/origins storyline into the Star Trek universe, which coincides with the STFW universe too, but at this stage (this stage being 2020, as…

Good news everyone, my render machine is alive! Kinda. Anyway I seem to be able to get it to do stuff. Mostly. And I’ve taken this opportunity to limit the CPU usage to like 95% because it does seem to die when it’s trying really hard. Chill out, I say. Have a break now and…

I know what you’re gonna say … I’m spending too much time playing with the Charlie character. Well, maybe. But sorting her clothing is much harder than with Jack, because there are loads of ‘guy’ freebies out there that are normal. Jeans: done. Tshirt: done. Easy. But the female clothing freebies are stupid bloody peephole…

Just uploading the next comic. ikr? That’s what happens when you fire a shit-ton of top-secret work at the internet; bulk updates baby!!! Hey I don’t seem to able to reply to the kind comments you guys have put on the blog (thank you though; hi Ixes et al!) – but keep it up, I’ll…

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…
