Firmware in progress

Comic 14's well underway. Pretty sure it'll be called 'Firmware', and will be unusual in that none of the normal crew will feature in it - just a few scenes on the Wraith in this one. But rest assured, they'll be good scenes. And you may be able to guess from the title what sort of goings-on will occur. Likely to do with reprogramming the droid, and also likely to do with something being 'firm'. There, I've said too much, let's

Happy freaking Christmas!

"Ix, wear a sensible dress, you'll look nice."
"Piss off"
"Seriously, you can borrow one, I've got a few and you know; you never dress nicely and it's a proper occasion"
"Eugh!! OK ok ok, whatever. You people and your parties. What have you got?"
"This nice red one will suit you.. your .. shape and it's red so - you know; Christmas."
"Suit my ... 'shape'?"
"Yeah I mean, you know, your .." 
"Yeah alright I know what you mean. I've yet to find a dress that doesn't make me look like a stupid bag of coconuts... it's a bit of a .. woah!"
"Well?"

Bottom

Because who doesn't like a nice bottom in a sci-fi situation, right?

Cloth dynamics..

Oh Ix you cheeky thing, you. I should probably spend less time playing with dynamic cloth deformation, but to be honest, it's a ripping good fun hobby. It's weird how something boring and physics-y can actually be jolly hot.

Sorry I'm using the word jolly a lot these days, I guess because Christmas is nearly upon us.

Anyway, the cool thing about cloth deformation physics is that in order to fit the item of clothing to a figure,

Arrr, 3d modelling; she be a tricky mistress, matey

So like although I'm scratching round for time to complete the next comic (though it is half done already) - I seem to be dedicating more time to creating props and scenarios for the comic after next instead. Crazyballs.

You know how it is.

Like when you're sitting there thinking you really should do things in order and complete the priority storyline but then your subconscious kicks in and says

Comic 13: Pegasus' Wraith

So like my thirteenth comic is done! Woop etc! I figured out how to combine scenes (and save a few upcoming ones for the next comic) so it's not a ninety-page behemoth comic, but is more manageable and svelte.

This one's optimised for mobile, in fact I'd recommend Perfect Viewer as you can set it up to play through pages in landscape so each half will fit nicely. Probably.

Anyway, hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did making it :)

The big-comic / little-comic dilema

OK I've got to the stage where I'm just fantasising more and more scenarios and then creating them in  3D and it's just not healthy! 

Problem is, my original idea for a comic is long gone and I'm left with lots of little bits of comics all over the place so I now need to decide: make it short and sweet (like Blue Steel or A Fairy Good Deal, which I thought were good ones), or combine everything into an epic comic, like Dive into the Dark. Also good. 

Weeell, I think I've decided to chop it up a bit. That way I can release a comic soon, and have plenty in the bank to release another one fairly soon in the new year probably. Which would be cool. So that's what I think I'll do :)

The plot's all coming together, suffice to say there'll be boobs and willies flying about all over the place, and some darkness and some loveliness. Which is nice.

The very terrible comic...

With just about every comic I've done there's always this moment when you read back what you've done so far and go "Oh. Bugger. This is rubbish"

Normally you get over it, you tweak it or get to a the meat of the plot/situation you're trying to tell the story of, and the comic comes together. But in this case it's dragging its heels a bit. I've got to page 40 and nothing much has happened; there've been some in-depth chats, a couple of gags and an awkward
meeting but somehow it seems a bit flat. I think I probably need to

I'm not in a rush..

My favourite page from the comic so far. Only because the light on her chest is beautiful, and I think it's got that thoughtful, reflective sense I was going for. I mean, not that I like to blow my own trumpet,
