Current Projects - September 2018

EDIT: I'm changing the name to "Terminal Desires" instead. I think it's a better fitting name for the game. New blog post coming very soon.

Hey, It's about 2 years overdue, but I'm finally doing another one of these "state of affairs" type of posts. I usually don't like writing huge posts, but I want to be open with you guys about what's being worked on and my plans for the rest of 2018 as they are right now.

Anyway,

'OIL: Chapter One':
Sorry for the delay there. It should be releasing on Affect3D's store for a reasonable price of $9.95 on the 25th of September. I'll make a post dedicated to it when it comes out. And possibly show off some more concept art & designs + sample pages.

Now I know what some people are probably thinking. "Wait, you're selling this? I thought your work was just a hobby and released for free?" "Is this the end of free content?" OIL is a special case, the fact that it took so much time, and was the work of more than just me meant that it deserved to be treated as such. It's not the end of free releases. In fact it's more of an outlier. We're testing out this method of releasing a comic. But in the future we might swap to another platform like Patreon to support future chapters. Every other one of my planned upcoming projects will be released for free on the blog as always. Except for possibly 'Emily's Negotiation' (when I eventually get back to that) for similar reasons.


'Terminal Diaries':
So, what am I working on right now? A zombie game made with RPG Maker MV. It's going to be called Terminal Diaries and I plan to have a public demo version out by the end of September. Think of it as an interactive image set, with gameplay, dialogue options and multiple paths/endings. You'll play as Tiffany Neil (a cop), as she and her partner investigate a distress call from the small town of 'Ashton Lake'. You'll control Tiffany's actions and determine her fate.

Here are some screenshots from the current development version:

Work is coming along nicely. Definitely expect a demo at the end of September. I'll be posting more about 'Terminal Diaries' soon. It's something I'm really excited about, and I hope to involve those who want to support the game. I'm planning on opening a Patreon account for those who wish to support and shape the future of the game. Patrons will be able to help vote on and suggest content/features for the game. That's the plan anyway. It's going to have a bunch of fetishes, some optional, but the main focus will be huge dicks, monsters/creatures and impregnation. Plus more if people request/suggest interesting things that fit well with the theme.

And not to worry, the game will always have a free version available to anyone from the blog. Patron's will just get early access to the new versions and get to vote on content polls, etc.

And one last thing. "If Tiffany is a cop, why is she wearing a pink micro bikini?" Well, it's a porn game so we decided it'd be more entertaining if in this world all the women dressed like sluts. But it will still be possible to play the game without any sex scenes as a serious action rpg. (if anyone really wants that, haha!) Plus if patrons really want to change her outfit they can vote on it. :)


'SMS: Save the Princess':
Finally getting around to this. It's the last of the round of commissions I accepted ages ago. In a way,  the second part of the Strippa & Kolong set from the start of the year, but not really. It's set in the same verse, in the same time period. But focusing on different characters. A group of Succubi and Incubi teens. The name of the series is 'Sex Maniac Students' (SMS) and this is a 'save the princess' type of game that they're role playing. The characters depicted are all 18+.

Here are some WIP shots of the environments so far (I've got 2 more to set up): 

This one will be more of a comic style, like OIL. I plan on releasing the completed pages for this one as I complete them instead of waiting until the end like I usually do. I'm planning to work on pages for this on the side while focusing primarily on 'Terminal Diaries'.


Other Projects:
Well, as optimistic as I'd like to be that's honestly probably it for 2018. At least as I see it right now. But things could change, depending on how well 'OIL: Chapter One' goes, and the support for 'Terminal Diaries'. I will probably also release something else. But right now that's up in the air.

So, the other projects. I'll start with the easy one.

Lara's Swim: 
The renders have all be done for ages, but there's still a bunch that need to be edited so that they look good. But I've kind of lost interest in it so it's been put to the side while I focus on projects that weren't from 2012, haha. I will finish it up soon. I'll probably have it done sometime in the next couple of months. Right now my focus for September is the first version of 'Terminal Diaries'.

Naughty University:
Naughty University is the name of that 'Comic project featuring Kaleisha and Kali'. A sequel project to Experimental Affairs set 18 years later with Kaleisha & Pierce's daughter, 'Kali'. I had to put it on hold to focus on OIL, and commissions. And now it's going to stay on hold a little while longer while I focus on 'Terminal Diaries' and the 'Save the Princess' commission. But here are some shots from Scene 0:

Emily's Negotiation:
When I get to it. :P

In all seriousness though. It's basically the same situation. I have to put it on hold to focus on other things that are more important or quite frankly projects that interest me more at the time. The story for it is great. And the art completed for it so far is still some of my best. I'm not sure how to explain my lack of interest in it, because I really like everything about it. I'll get back into the swing of things eventually, but it's still going to be a while before I'm ready to focus on it.



Gremlins:
And just because I know people are interested. No there are still no concrete plans for more gremlins, other that the fact that I'll be doing more gremlins when I get the chance. Not sure if it'll be part 3, not sure if it'll be a different heroine or character. I'll make those decisions when I get to it. For the moment my focus is elsewhere. But probably after the Succubus comic is done, I'll start looking into it. Or maybe I'll do some smaller side stories. I'm really going through a transitional period when it comes to how I display my work. I'm trying things like comics and games and different distribution platforms etc. Who knows what crazy things await!?


Thanks again for all the support. Leave any questions below. I'll see you soon with more updates.

P.S. While writing this, I thought of 'Terminal Desires' as a potentially better name than 'Diaries'. Maybe I'll change it :P What do people think?

Strippa & Kolong - Behind the Scenes

Hey all,

May went by pretty fast for me. Again, the rendering for OIL is basically done. There are 3 posed images left to render, but as I frequently need my PC to do other work and these renders take several hours each, I'll need to find the time to do them in. Then there will be big editing phase but we'll be releasing a couple more Character Interviews in the meantime.

I also decided to finish the Phoebe set that I started many years ago just to get it over with and help clear out my backlog a bit more. I have two more images to go with that... and then the editing process...

But hey, remember when I talked about that behind the scenes post for the Strippa & Kolong: Origin mini set all the way back in January? Well I guess this is it? Here's a bunch of concept and wip images I made while designing Strippa:


First off I already posted some images of her design in this initial post: here.

So after checking them out, I'll start with some shots or her from behind.

As you might notice, her tail was originally going to be much thicker but we changed it to be thinner for the final design as can be seen in the section below this.

Here's a t-pose turn-around (sorta) of her final proportions. Ignore the fact that the tail isn't properly blended into her lower torso on the last pic there, usually that's where I'd do some of my slowpoke "editing, but I didn't bother for this WIP design shot.

Now onto the outfit. As for her casual clothes we wanted something with a bit of "class" to it. She's supposed to be royalty after all. I actually really like how it turned out: the golden heels, classy floral top, scale textured micro skirt and her tiny leopard print thong peeking out. It's a shame she won't be wearing it anymore :3!

 

Then there's her royal gear: the robe and crown. We decided there was too much purple here, so we went with a green robe in the final design.

At first her slave body-suit was going to be like this:

But then I found this piece which looked a lot hotter:

As you can see, many different colors were considered before the final red was selected:

 

 

As for Kolong, nothing major was changed for him. As per usual, a lot more effort and importance was placed on the design of Strippa :P. However, originally Kolong looked a little bit tougher, but those features were toned down in the final version. The Incubi here are supposed to be the brains, while the Succubi are the brawn.

And here is a test render of Strippa's Royal Chambers. I was also pretty impressed with how this set piece turned out (although some textures are messed up in this particular test).

I'm not done with the Succubi and Incubi characters yet. Next we'll be focusing on a group of younger succubi girls who are left to deal with the social ramifications of Queen Strippa's official ratification of the terms of the Kingdom-wide Master & Slave "Game" proposed by Kolong. The following sets will be longer in length, but I'll be finishing up some of my other projects before then. Here's a sneak peak at one of the girls - "Etriganna":

More blog posts coming soon... I swear!

Strippa & Kolong: Origin (Commission)

Alright here it is, the first release of 2018. Hopefully everyone is doing OK so far. I said I'd do a 'behind the scenes' post but I was focused on some other things this week so I'll do that post later.

These characters were created and Commission by "Mr. Steal Your Waifu" so you have him to thank for these.

This turned out to be quite a bit of fun to work on. I'm not usually all that into monster girls but I'm fairly simple minded and really like how her skin turned out. I like bright shiny colors. Makes my brain go "Wow". Plus, so much of what I've done in the past has had a very dull atmosphere or color scheme so this was a little refreshing in a way. That being said there's plenty of darker sets coming out in the future. Strippa herself was a lot of fun to design, but I'll talk about that more in the behind the scenes post.

The idea behind this set is there's a kingdom where the female species are Succubi and the Male species are Incubi. The Succubi are the dominant race, being physically larger and more imposing, so their society operates under a Matriarchy where the Queen (in this case Strippa) is the Succubi with the largest breasts. All this starts to change though when Kolong, an Incubi childhood friend of Strippa, convinces her to start a kingdom wide Master & Slave game that drastically changes the direction of their society.

Here's the whole set (6 pages) with download link at the bottom if you want the "No text" Version as well. Images 5 & 6 take place after a little extra time has passed and Strippa has gotten more comfortable with the idea of "The Game."

Later:

Later Again:

I have no doubt that you'll be seeing more from these characters and this universe again in the future so look forward to that.

This was the final commission piece from a bunch that I accepted a while ago so I'm going to be primarily focusing on my own projects like "OIL" and "Emily's Negotiation" over the next couple of months. But I also intend to post more frequently so make sure to keep an eye out for upcoming things.

I'll do a post sometime during next week with all the behind the scenes & WIP images I did for this commission.

Happy New Year

Whoops! Said I was going to do another post before the end of the year but in my timezone it's already 2018! Happy New Year everyone, I have high hopes for 2018.

I was going to do a more detailed introduction/behind the scenes post about the two characters coming up in the next small commissioned set, except I don't really have the time for a long post right now so I'll get to it some time this week instead. For now I'll just leave you with some of the WIP shots I did when finalizing the designs of "Strippa" (the Succubus Queen) and "Kolong" (a crafty Incubus).

 

I should be finished with this one mini-set later this week. Sorry I didn't have time for any more info. I'll post more soon. Happy New Year!
