Healthy, unhealthy

I’ve just done this stress training thing. Sounds great! EAT THESE BEES Okay maybe it’s more like how to spot stress and help yourself and other people sort it out, cos it can be related to a bunch of … you know. So the first bit we had to do was note down all the…

Karen. Is. Lasagne.

This blog post is inspired by The Night Window, by Thomas Newman. Play it as you read! Why not eh. (Fun fact, lasagne is plural/general, lasagna is singular/specific, apparently. Aaaanyway …) Karen. Is. Lasagne. We all know this, right? Lasagne are made with onions (which make you cry) amongst the deep layers, then the layers…

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…

Decent onesies

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…

Storage

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…

A forgotten crush

^ 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…

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…

God is left-handed

Think about it right, God gets to show off the magic in minority stuff like orangutans, seahorses, human knee joints, unusual little cosmic events, moon coronas, stuff like that. So of course he’s left handed, because that means creativity and zaniness [sarcasm]. So of course they’ll be left handed in my upcoming comic [not sarcasm]….

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…

Boobies and boo-boos

Comic update: I’ve finished the flipping renders! I know, smashing through it. It comes in at around 130 pages – just some speech bubbles to do and then BAM! It’s gonna be next Lithium out! Woop woop! Excited about this one, had a little read through just now, did a little giggle and a little…

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…

Jen! Jen! Jen! Jen!

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…

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,…

Pointless armour.

 Someone commented on the latest comic: … that soldier on page 22 should demand a refund, his armor let a pistol bullet kill him instead of protecting him as it is supposed to do. He is probably too dead to do that, but he most likely is also too stupid to know he is dead. …

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…

It goes on.

OK comic update: I now have only one [big] scene to create, then it’s bubbles time!!! There are over 200 pages … in fact the last scene is a bit of a spread-out affair, so we could be looking at 240 pages by the time we’re done. Another epic. Woopsy. And its taken an age,…

Furries! Furries everywhere!!!

In my bid to take over the world by touching on every kink known to mankind, I thought I’d have a little Furry action in one of the upcoming OHB comics. I mean, knowing me, I might not. But there’s a 92% chance I’ll stick with the idea, having built this character. To be honest,…

Stresssssss

Tschhhhhh. Flippin nora, you know it’s stressy stressy work stress when you don’t even have time to add crazy mutterings on your freaking sexy comics blog! Too much on, but despite this, the comic work has been continuing nicely. We’re into the final three scenes, with some gentle darkness learning to become light. Here’s a…

Final checks …

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…

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…

One two … one two … this is just a test

My word, Twitter’s annoying, isn’t it? I’ve just hooked up IFTTT from this blog to current [rubbish] username @SindyAnnaJones3 (now bust) – but Twitter keeps locking me out and has managed to set me up three times with the wrong details so now I can’t edit the handle Tsssk, ah well perhaps it’s not meant…

Hhurrrngggggg!!!

I’ve had a chance to use my reasonably mighty cerebellum (we all have one) on the Great Poser Problem™️ and have realised I can just work around the software issue by hiding people’s hair, creating scenes frame-by-frame, and then un-hiding all the hair and ploughing through the rendering timeline that way. So … it’s not…

Comics are awesomeeeee!

Just wanted to say thank you for all the feedback you’ve given on the latest comic, Grace. Comments ranged from “Very disappointed. Your other comics had excellent dialogue – this one had hardly any.“ (lol, btw), to “Brilliant! Telling such a difficult story without text is difficult at best. You are a master of your…

GIVEAWAY! Makin’ comics!

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!

The Great Big Update!

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…

Delays and Inspiration

Ok so this is gonna be a little bittersweet. Two reasons for this post: (1) I’m not doing too well rn. (2) I want to know the source of the pics on this page if anyone knows, please? So on (1); sometimes life hits you in the brain like a train hitting a … I…

Pedestals

So I’m going to be in central London most of next week, doing some silly project.  Meanwhile, I’ll also have my laptop with me, and I’ll also be doing a very very serious project. With boobies. I’m doing that thing where I … actually I’m not sure how to describe it. Maybe part of reality…

Spam spam spam

Okay I can no longer log into any Google account, because Google is mean. I don’t think Google has heard of ‘privacy’, so if someone could let them know what it means, I’d appreciate it. Trouble is, I also can’t check my general Sindy email, and so I can’t email the WONDERFUL web host of…

Goodnight, my little cuntie

Okay while doing some important research (aka fannying around on the internet), I came across QUITE the series of filthy letters from hugely acclaimed author of Ulysses; James Joyce. You may have read them, it went viral back in 2010 or something. Ah well, I thought it was worth sharing here anyway because … my…

Rooms that are not rooms.

I thought I’d enjoy some quiet time over the summer break and actually get round to reading through my own (and other) comics! Yay! It’s been a pleasant surprise to go through old work like this.  Anyway one thing that amused me was that fact that our favourite kids’ apartment isn’t actually one apartment, it’s…

Oh deary me

Oh dear oh dear I’m not finding much time to blog about this next comic, because it’s just proved toooo much fun spending the time making it. Sorry about that. Sorry ish. It’s also hard releasing images without giving some of the plot away (and I know how much everyone’s here for the PLOT), so…

The Punisher

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…

Slight delay …

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,…

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,…

Middle managers can do one

Okay, get ready for a mini (and fairly overdue) rant. As you may have noticed from my comics, I think about things, I have thoughts, one might even notice … I do have a brain. In fact, in the real world I’m a pretty well experienced thinker, paid reasonably well to be a multi-faceted specialist…

The comics plan

Okay I realise it might be difficult to follow what’s going on with the STFW [multi-multi] series comics recently, so I thought I’d just mind-dump on where I’m personally at, and what (my personal) broader plan is for the comics universe. I’ve worked on two major series: One Human Being, and Lithium. Amongst those I’ve…

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…

Minor spoilers …

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…

No, no,…

I mean …

Kinder Haiku

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…

Symbolism, wooOOooOOoooo …

I have this sort-of-policy where I don’t put too much thought into my stories. Know what I mean? Like if you force it, it doesn’t work as well. I think things are best when they’re more seat-of-the-pants because then your subconscious brings more gems from the depths of creation rather than you trying to control…

Wallflowers.

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…

And the winner is … camisole!

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….

I stand corrected. I was…
