Giveaway #3: bath time

I know what you’re thinking, “You can’t give away that whole scene with those characters! That’s crazy; does Capitalism and the constant accumulation of goods and services mean nothing to you??!!” … and yet here we are. I can and I shall, mwa-ha-haaaa! Get ’em while they’re … nice and clean I guess? Full bathroom…

Tis the season to be … restful.

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,…

Hope for all humans.

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,…

Haha breast physics hahaha

Okay! So I still haven’t sorted all the comic/downloads links on that page of the website, but I did add all the ‘social’ buttons to the top left of the website – and as youtube was an option I added my random youtube channel and hahahahahaaa I’d totally forgotten I’d done some booby physics ‘tutorial’…

The Lithium Comic. 05: In Tents

Comic five is here! Wahoooo! In our last comic, we learnt the dark family secret that mean aunt Karen had been hiding. Tsss, that woman. Our young heroes managed to survive the news, but now need to figure out the next tentative steps in this already controversial relationship. Fingers crossed it goes well, eh? Download…

It downs the blouse, precious

Frustrated by my recent experience of Poser, I thought I’d just make a new thingy with one of the 3D scenes someone bought me (thanks for the treehouse, ASF0_render!), so here are a bunch of random renders. Basically I threw Jilly into the scene in her default pose, put Marcus’s sports top and Charlie’s shoes…

Cover vote!

Okay here’s a few test covers which I tried for the first Kinfolk comic. And then I want you to help me decide which cover to use for the second comic (out soonish). Comic #1 cover tests: ^ I thought this was a strong contender because I just liked the layout. Then I thought the…

Mother f***er

I need your mummy-son advice – see below. But before we get into that, what incredible weather we’ve had, eh?! Except for right now, as if the weather’s declaring NO MORE SUMMER FOR YOU. Ah well, it has generally been blissful and warm, time for lazing about and reading books and watering the garden ……

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. 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…

THE SCARAB OF DESTINY

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…

Staring into beauty

HELLO the internet. Well, gosh it’s been a few weeks eh and no doubt many things have happened in your life since we last spoke. How do you feel about that? Hmm, I hear ya, I hear ya. Existence eh? Classic stuff. Personally I have been suffering from what the doctor calls a ‘disease’, which…

A spacesuit for every occasion

Playing with character settings and a ton of textures and materials and scenes … Love this freebie spacesuit outfit. For most of these renders I’ve hidden the sleeves, so it’s more of an action suit than an airtight vacuum-of-space sorta deal. Such a cool retro look to it, though! Loving Superfly’s render engine, which can…

Splendid Tiramisu

Thanks to Shades for signposting, and to Fred Brown for spotting this: – Tira, of Rather Magnificent fame, has moved to Renderosity for updates – and it looks like the much-anticipated 6th comic is … actually … on the way! **SQUEEEE!** Wait, is it squee or sqwee? Squie … skwee … hmm. This is what…

Playing with Sophie Shitcrack

Okay, as you may know, before I start another comic in a series, I try and improve the characters with any ‘niggles’ that annoyed me in the previous comic. So development of Sophie is going alright after all; here are some development renders: ^ new Sophie on the left. You can’t tell the difference from…

Twinspiration

Okay … inspired by a little plot-wrangling in a recent comic … ahem … I’ve gone off on a bit of a SIDE MISSION to start making this comic that everyone said they wanted, back when I did a concept comic poll last year. You remember the one. It was a comic about a young…

Musky McMoneybags

Update: tune in this Sunday for some behind-the-scenes nonsense: It’s interesting looking at some of your feedback for ohb8; most applauding the dig I had at billionaire culture, but a few people saying I was wrong about Musk. I mean it’s an interesting one, isn’t it? I think the point is that billionaires simply shouldn’t…

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…

Important walk cycle test…

During the comic-creation process, it’s really important to animate characters in looping movement poses to get a real feel for … for … … ok nothing. It’s not important to animate them, cos comics are static. It’s a totally pointless exercise, I admit. These animations, then, are just for fun. Lots of free walk cycles…

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…

Good times a comin’

  Relief. Relief. So weird, didn’t expect that. I guess when someone you love has lived with an abuser for so long, you learn to live with the tension, the self-control of wanting the best for your friend but always knowing there’s this ongoing rumble of abuse. So when the abuser is gone (even temporarily),…

Invited, uninvited.

Weeell … I was going to start Lithium #13 with Jack having sex with Skylar, like this: … where she’s fallen asleep in a weird position, and he wakes up and is like “OOH … HELLO!”. And I initially wrote it like that because I had that pose of hers in my head and I…

I mean …

… 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…

The Eggiest of all the Eggy Eggs

Okay, you know how I like to put film/TV and niche pop culture references in my comics, well there’s also self-referential consistency MADNESS in every comic, too. Here are the top 10 silly ones from Lithium #10 … how many did you spot?!   ^ circled in red is Skylar’s goddamn TOAST which she dropped…

Cover fiasco

Ahh, pants. Sometimes comic covers are easy, you just do a render and it’s like YES! THAT’S THE ONE! Then sometimes I just can’t for the life of me figure out what they should be. Or I do a crazy collage like for Telepathic Hentai Tentacle – that cover made sense because it had to…

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…

Okay okay okay okay okay wait wait wait

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…

Extreme fitness forum..?

Someone sent me a lovely comment recently saying, among other things, “… been following your comics since the old ‘Extreme Fitness Forum’…”. ~ now, though it does sound like the kind of thing I’d call a blog … I don’t actually remember calling anything an ‘extreme fitness forum’, so it must have been a long…

The big-boobs little-boobs dilemma

I know it’s an annoying topic, nobody likes to discuss boobs, but it’s a detail that needs to be sorted out. Plus this spacesuit is getting better as I sort the materials. So here’s a bunch of renders … Anyway, question is, do we go for buxom or … you know … believable human? To…

Haters! Lovers! HHHHUUUMANNNSSSSSS

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…

Language, Kenneth!

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…

Merry Christmas Ya Filthy Animals!

Have an amazing few days, whether at home alone or abroad in a huge pile of humans. Wherever you find yourself, I wish you kindness, gentleness and peace! And tiramisu. And a delicious stout.

Well … this next comic …

A very, very big waste of time.

You know how sometimes you work on something and … at the time you think it’s IMPORTANT and SUBSTANTIAL and is therefore okay to ignore all other responsibilities because it is just so IMPORTANT, and that’s mostly down to you really really getting into it? I’ve basically just wasted *checks notes* … yes … yep,…

Incredibly Hot Playmates

Stat things

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…

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…

The Office

I don’t like this lighting test, but was going for the deserted twilight-lit office space kinda thing. Not sure I’ll use the scene at all, but it’s cool there’s so many free props like this that come with the software. Anyway that’s all. Quick update to say hello! Hello!

Giveaway #1: Jilly and Ernest

Get them while they’re hot! Being the kind soul I am, I thought I’d give them away for free – Jilly and Ernest characters for V4, you’ll need the software (ie.

Lithium! Lithium! Lithium!

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…

Hey shall we have a competition?

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…
