Happy Holidays!

Quick update. It hasn't exactly been the most productive week leading up to Christmas. A lot of cooking, baking and wrapping...not so much rendering. I did hit a total of 555 renders. Got into a new environment, worked on a prop seen in scene 8, and have rendered about half the scene. I'm hoping ...

Scene 8

This is definitely a premature case log, but I always like to update when things are moving forward and I have a distinct feeling that things will not be moving forward on the 24th, when I have a sort of semi official date with the update. Today has been really good. I just hit render 541. I have...

Case Log 3.55

I finished rendering scene 7 and started scene 8 which is where the newspaper will be utilized. I really like this scene, so I hope you guys will too. I think I have now solved the player card, music player and gallery coding. Next will be cleaning up scene 4 coding so it all works and then makin...

In anticipation of New Antioch chapter 3 release.

One of my favorite new AVNs will be releasing chapter 3 toward the end of this month. With that in mind and the fact that Amy really should have a newspaper that appears to be a newspaper and not just a stock asset her creator was too lazy to work on, I have created the first original Rackham Gaz...

Case Log #3.5-ish

I'm confident that we are past the halfway mark in render numbers. I hit 470 total today, last update was around 650. The screen grab above is a cropped, mid-render shot from near end of scene 7. I thought that I would reach scene 8 today, but the environment that I'm using is so well lighted (lo...

Victoria Player Card

Today is a 100% rendering scenes day, but I finished this during the week. Scene 7 is underway and I'll post the weekend update on Sunday (watch me forget now that I have solidly promised to post:-)

Detective Turis

In her undercover outfit, but still sporting the badge to exert her authority.

Natasha's Player Card

So tomorrow starts a big 4 days of rendering. Very exciting, however, my building will have a scheduled power outage tomorrow between 8.00 and 16.00. I love that the city gets to be as non-specific as the cable guy used to be regarding time. So, I might opt for the late start as to not lose any w...

Case Log 3.48

Aside from the goofy case log number (I just couldn't say that we are halfway through. I do believe that after this coming weekend we will be past the halfway mark as I have 4 days of full rendering planned.) Once I finish scene 7 and take a bite out of 8, the next chapter will be looking pretty ...

And with color preserved

Mini update to feel you guys out.

There are a few things I hope to finalize in this update. Some that were a target last update, but I felt like I was running out of time. Now, I will never take any support for granted, but I feel like I can finish up what I think is necessary for the game overall and maybe push the release a wee...

Scene 7

First render of scene 7 of chapter 3. It's sizable one, with interactions between MC and Valerie, Victoria, Sam and Greg. Parts in the gym and parts in and around the showers.

This render opens the scene and there is some background missing atm.

Poll winner Amy.

Since I don't have an environment specifically for Amy, she gets to be close to home. Hope you like.

Case Log 3.45 Public

True to form...at least the last week or so:-) I am posting an update on Sunday. This week has actually been pretty productive despite my loud objections to coding this shit. Here is what has happened:

1) I have post processed all images for scenes 1-3.

2) I have coded scenes 1-3 and ...

10 Patrons Nude Extravaganza!

Don't worry, you don't need to undress, but in celebration of 10 Patrons, I will render a nude of one of the young women we have meet so far. To narrow it down a little, it will only be main LIs and the ones our MC has talked to or been punched by. It's small mile stone, but I truly appreciate th...

Case Log 3.4

I'm always happier to post an update here, where people actually care about what is going on, than anywhere else. I'm going to stay true to my original intent (this week) and post an update on a Sunday! There is some great news today. 

First: we crossed 300 renders for the chapter, whi...

Camille Eye Color?

What do you guys think. I was going to "reveal" her eye color in chapter 3. (I know, but it's the little thin...

Mini Update Case Log 3.35

I was going to try to do a weekly update on Sundays. But I feel that it's best to do these updates when I'm feeling good about things. No reason to drag you guys down with the ship, right? Today has been a phenomenal render day. We are at 223 renders total for the chapter. I'm not done with the d...

Introducing Danielle Bellarosa

Not the first time we see her, but it will be the first conversation with the icy daughter of a mob boss. Tread carefully, partners of this beauty have a tendency to end up as fish food.

I'm doing better. (Case Log #3.3)

I had one ok render day and one really good render day over the weekend. I'm still working on the speakeasy scene. It has gotten a little more involved than I first envisioned, but I think it deserves a good look.

Currently I'm at about 195 renders. Once I'm done with the speakeasy I will h...

Introducing: Camille Dulpher.

This beauty is the saxophone player at the Bellarosa speakeasy/club Red Hot Kitten. Chapter 3 will introduce her and MC will have the opportunity for some interaction with much more to come.

Here is the alternative.

Is it fun to have atmosphere? Yes! I would probably do it in almost every situation for this particular AVN. Alas, I cannot do it and put out more than a chapter a year...so lets not dwell on it. This is a nice and clean render to provoke dirty thoughts. And it doesn't look like shit.

I hate DAZ or my computer or both...not sure which.

So the Atmosphere Gambit as I call it, has turned out to be unmanageable. This particular render took 2 hours and I tried it twice to see if I could make it work. All in all it has basically taken up all day and most of my hair. If I wasn't already drinking a beer...you get the picture. The above...

Meet Camille Dulpher...sort of.

The is still a little noise in the highlights, but I don't mind it. What are your thoughts?

Speakeasy Interior

I may have stumbled on a practical way of rendering with atmosphere. Above is the result (with minor photoshop denoise and black level up). I'm going to place this chapter's first new love interest character and I'll post that result as well. I might ditch the original wall sconces, I prefer the ...

The Pecker Image

Just a little back light and a low eye light makes it a Pecker Image (no, not a dick pic, maybe a private dick pic.)

Time for the speakeasy!

I decided to render this because I thought it looked nice and natural. This is not going into the VN, because it's not the visual concept of Pecker PI...but maybe in a different reality.
