Home of the Lithium Comic, One Human Being, and other absurdly sexy comics. Plus boobies, bums, willies, stuff like that.
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 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,…
Free stuff! Okay, in keeping with me never ever spending a penny on 3D content, this apartment was based almost entirely on a freebie given away on Renderosity; I just sorted out all the lighting, materials settings etc. And I think originally it was like an outdoor patio thing, so I just moved everything indoors…
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…
Okay we have *checks notes* ten more renders to go before we’re done! Then it’s just adding bubbles and checking through, so it might actually be next week maybe! It’s soooo silly, this comic. In fact I had a read through a few days back and I had to add a note at the beginning…
When I started making comics, I thought I’d upload them to a couple of comics websites, see if anyone would read them, I was hoping maybe like a hundred people might like my work (hey we all need validation at some point). Then after a couple of years it seemed like the work was going…
Get ready to meet new characters, find out a shit-ton of plot, and get excited about what the hell is going to happen next! That’s right, comic #3 is on the way. Don’t hold your breath, but I’m about halfway through and it’s … pretty good I think. But then I thought comic 3 was…
OK I’ve made a decent start on Lithium #6, but it’s a long comic so don’t hold your breath; things are hectic at the beginning of a new year & this may take a while. I did notice on a forum somewhere (I googled my name, as you do), that lots of people think Lithium…
It’s interesting [to me] how, if we fully light a scene, it can look fake and boring. But if we remove lights, leave lots of shadow, it all sort of pops more. I think Caravaggio was probably onto something. And maybe that’s one of the things that makes ‘vintage’ porn so much more interesting to…
OK minor detail but it’s a fun one so I figure it’s the kind of thing Charlie and Jack will have a chat about. Charlie’s lovely pink bra (and it is a lovely 3D model, you have to admit; whoever made it did a great job, which you can see from the close-ups in comic…
Okay I’ve started packaging up some 3D characters – I’ll share them on this blog soon so if you’re into 3D content, check back! There’s also a few already out there – check the downloads now and then. Pictured above is one of the very earliest development Charlottes I created, based on V4. I think…
Been thinking recently about my role in other people’s lives. Like I’ve been clear in my comics about my own trauma and the various paths we take to believing we are worthy of love / towards freedom. But sorting out ourselves is not the end of the story, is it? Because we’re not islands but…
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…
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…
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….
Hahahaha!!! Ahhh. Ahhhhhhh. So I opened up the file ready to render out a scene and it hadn’t loaded my custom morph file correctly for charlie. Luckily I did a test render before leaving it overnight to render out the entire scene hahaha! Presented as a gif so you can appreciate the difference. This is…
Oh, this isn’t a new comic dropping, btw. Don’t get too excited. I’ve been tweaking the final Lithium comic script and stuff, and pretty proud of where this takes us, this one. It’s also been interesting to open old scene files and update the settings – see where the rendering has progressed in the last…
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…
Well. Well then. Huh. It will be out this week. Probably not tomorrow or Thursday, but definitely by Friday! Wahooooo! Another thanks to the people who bought me 3D props a few weeks back – a few of them make it in near the end of this comic. Couple of haircuts, a jumpsuit and a…
My oh my we’re nearly … Yes, yes I hear you. I want it too, believe me. It’s been a tough old summer, hasn’t it? Time for some Autumn goodness to cool the blood and settle the nerves. I want to especially send some of the good loving to my American friends – you…
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…
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…
OK I’ve been busy. No wait, the other thing. I’ve been wasting time. Busy wasting time. I’ve started making random figurines to join in with the mayhem of the next Lithium Comic (haven’t actually started making that comic yet, but suffice to say … it’s going to be a crazy one. I might wait a…
*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…
… 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 hear what you’re saying, and what I hear is boobies boobies boobies. So I opened up the old Skybloom scene files and updated them so they’d work with the latest version of the 3D software I’m using/wrangling. So here are some test renders FOR SCIENCE ^ this was the first…
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…
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 ……
One of my favourite writers, Richard Rohr, made some interesting observations about Homers Odyssey, and you see a little of my discussion of the same themes in OHB comics 7 & 8, as well as Lithium, and … well, all my comics let’s face it. Rohr points out that in the Odyssey, Odysseus leaves Ithaca…
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…
Okay I’ve heard on the [very private] grapevine, that … Tira Yugen can’t get into their Google account. Which sucks for two reasons: (1) they have produced a special edition version of their comic #1 which they can’t now launch (see spicy spoiler image with a typo I pointed out just in time … your…
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…
It’s always nice, passing the sixty-nine page mark. Perhaps because I always giggle. And then have to remind myself I’m a functioning adult, with lots of qualifications and substantial proof that I really really am a functioning adult. I promise. Just a … a special type of functioning adult, who giggles at the number 69….
I just got an email recommending I whatever with ‘incredibly hot playmates’, and I just thought YES, now that would make a good comic title! And then I thought about it a bit and I changed my mind. No, it wouldn’t. Aaaanyway, how’s tricks, internet? Next comic is coming along nicely. I’m now in…
I realised this week that I have made two major, major cock-ups with Kinfolk! The first cock-up is that I based it in 1795, which was a result of me working backwards from an intended next generation of characters (unpublished concept story), and getting the damn maths wrong! Should’ve been more like 1815! Bum! Not…
OK so having done 138 pages now, I only just worked out what the cover should be, and rendered it out … So here’s a little preview because when the final comic lands, nobody’s going to notice these details as they ravenously consume the comiccy goodness within, so let’s have a calm look, shall we?…
This is the two-hundredth blog post! Woweeee!! I started the blog (with this ^ ridiculous image) in Feb last year, and started churning out comics soon after that. And what a whirlwind it’s been, eh? I have been asked about 200 times if people can give me money, and I have been told about…
Okay look, I haven’t asked for anything 3D for a long time, but I’m just starting to put together the scenery for the next two comics, and there are a few 3D things I will definitely need. So … if you enjoy my comics and would like to help out by buying me a 3d…
Look, sorry but I’m having a little break from making comics, it seems. So if you wanna have a little break and check the blog again in a month or two, that would make sense. Looking at my many and various creative endeavors over the last few decades (PS. I am extremely old … I’m…
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…
You may wonder why my comics production has sliiightly reduced in recent years. Well, for one, there’s no longer a Pandemic on, so regular make-the-most-of-outside life has resumed. But the other major reason is … okay bear in mind I am a functioning adult with responsibilities and duties … the other reason is Minecraft. Anyone…
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;…
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…
Okay listen, London’s a big place and there’s lots of people here, but I thought it’d be funny to do a real life treasure hunt, so … basically right now I’m in Westminster, sitting in a pub beside a Christmas Tree (why they have a massive tree up already I don’t know), so you know….
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…
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,…
(OK fine I couldn’t decide what to title this blog post). Anyway the comic: 120 pages done! Woop! I have to be honest; I’ve slowed down a tiny bit, having ploughed through all of the action sequences last month, there’s some actually much more complex scenes I’ve had to do more carefully this last week. …
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…
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…
Well, I was after a corvette – small, fast, mostly engine, space-capable craft that looked domestic rather than industrial or military, and I think we’ve hit the jackpot with this one … the seats spin and everything … Just do some quick character tests … FOR SCIENCE. Hello? Anybody ho… wait a minute … what’s…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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,…
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…
Well, I have to admit I’m having a *lovely* time finishing up this comic! It’s … well, it’s … I was trying to think about a way of blogging about this, but then the list of Photoshop layers kinda summed it up nicely, so here’s a screengrab of some of them >>> Jinkies x Come…
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…
Someone commented on this blog a while back, saying I shouldn’t cover drug usage in my comics, as that’d be “a bit dark, something your other comics couldn’t be accused of” – I mean I know what you mean ~ my comics do seem to have a ‘light’, joyful kinda overall vibe about them, but…
It’s here! The second of three Kinfolk comics ~ 182 pages of sheer … 1795 -ishness. The innocence is palpable, the joy is bubblin’, the language is all over the place, the lore is strong, and the boobies … ohh, the boobies. Read it, distribute it, translate it into twenty different languages if you like,…
Thought I’d log into the ol’ Google-mo-tron and find out [vague information] about my blog visitors. It’s been interesting producing a series of comics which is increasingly equality-focussed in its values – I wondered if that correlated with the type of visitor I got. Turns out it does! I started off with what is probably…
Can’t believe I published eleven comics in 2019. That’s quite a lot. I think as I get deeper into the comic series plotlines, the comics will probably get a little longer, so I’m unlikely to release eleven in 2020. At least I hope I don’t. Considering this is a random hobby I crowbar into my…
I’ve discovered that I can make comics much faster if I just chop all the sex scenes out! Genius! I know right? It’s so simple, why didn’t I think of this before?! All the effort is in posing people, especially when there’s two (or three) in close proximity, so from now on; nobody goes within…
Uuooohuahh … okay. The rendering for comic #12’s all done. Speech bubbles underway, lots done already. So … next Lithium Comic out THIS WEEK!!!! For suresees. Maybe even Thursday? Normally when I say that it’s out the next day but I doubt it’ll be Tues at this rate, still quite a bit of work to…
As we all learnt in blockbuster 1960s film Spartacus, slaves can be freaking awesome. The lowest of the low, oppressed by The Man, can in fact turn out to be absolute badasses. Of course they can: they are people. And people all have profound value. And that’s good news for us all, because we all…
