Time for another update again, and as you'd expect, we're a lot closer again to seeing chapter 6 of Light of my Life completed.
As of this moment, I'm doing my QA passes, and while it's not always easy going, with every passing hour the game is getting a little better. Then, there's also a...
Since the last update, two more milestones were checked off.
First of all, the render backlog is all emptied out. That doesn't mean there's no more rendering, as there's gonna be more than a few images that need a little bit touching up, like have some clipping fixed, expressions and ...
2021-11-17 23:49:22 +0000 UTC View PostToday is a fun almost milestone. Almost all daz3d scenes are now produced. The remaining three or four I'll wrap up tomorrow, and that means from here on in, the most time consuming part of creating Light of my Life is effectively wrapped up.
What follows next is rendering out the remaining...
2021-11-10 23:02:02 +0000 UTC View PostAs the next chapter inches to completion, let's take a sec to look at what is done, what's still to come, and if we can learn something interesting from that. As before, I'm going to try and have a look at number of images added to the game up to this point and see where that leads us.

So what's happening Naughty? With the release, you know?
That big scene that I told you I was kinda worried about nailing, I'm actually pretty happy with how the visuals are shaping up, and all in all I didn't run into too much technical issues. I have a feeling it'll do t...
With today's progress update, there's just four pictures remaining (well, if you look closely, there's a tiny edge to one of the other scenes still, that needs some wrapping up, but for all intents and purposes, four remaining). That means we're getting real close now, so I wanted to zoom in a bi...
2021-10-06 22:09:35 +0000 UTC View PostA few of you have expressed an interest in seeing a time lapse or something of me making a wallpaper, but because I kept switching back and forth between production and making this wallpaper, it became a bit of an editing nightmare, so instead I'm gonna try and zoom in on a detail of this month's...

The time of Halloween is coming up, and that means it's time for a Halloween wallpaper. But not quite exactly.
Dia de Los Muertos is a holiday that is celebrated in Mexico and other Latin countries, and originated from the Aztec festival for the goddess Mictecacihuatl, the Lady of the...
2021-09-28 00:23:09 +0000 UTC View PostAs development time has been stretching on, maybe it's time to address that head on and discuss some of the questions that have been coming my way lately, and the answers I gave, and hopefully that answers some questions you may have.
Here's three of those questions (well, technically...
2021-09-04 11:29:42 +0000 UTC View PostUsually, around this time I would have a wallpaper out, but I'm too caught up in production on the game so it's gonna be a bit later. On the up side, that means I have a little more time to let the ideas ripen a bit.
2021-09-01 22:01:09 +0000 UTC View PostAs usual, by the time a release for a new chapter of Light of my Life is drawing closer, tensions and expectations begin to rise, for fans of the project and myself alike. It's been a long wait for you, and it's been a hard slog for me, with well over 1500 hours sunk into it so far, having spent ...

Are they arriving at the oasis at first light after a long overnight trek, eager to quench their thirst and find shelter from the heat of the day, or are they setting out with the last light, ready to move on from this safe haven that sustained them, to face an uncertain future?

A few days overdue, but here's last month's wallpaper. It features our heroines facing the hardships of daily life in the cretaceous and interacting with the local wildlife.
Wallpapers are a great way to shift gears for a bit and focus on doing stuff I wouldn't do in day to day production, ...

After skipping last month, it's just in time for the end of this month. A little tribute to one of my favorite movies, but a little happier; perhaps more of a camping trip than a desperate and deadly chase through a hostile wasteland.
As usual, 4K and textless versions are attached to t...
2021-05-30 15:28:43 +0000 UTC View PostThe first of May already, and there's no wallpaper?!
Well, yeah... it'll be a little later, I'm really eager to hit that halfway marker on the progress bar so I'm trucking on with the game instead. But it'll come eventually, because I definitely need the little reset making one always giv...
Every now and then, someone remarks on the liberal use of what is known as a Dutch angle in Light of my Life.
According to Wikipedia, a Dutch angle is "a camera shot in which the camera has ...
2021-04-09 17:18:15 +0000 UTC View PostApart from the Easter season featured in today's wallpaper, tax season is also upon us. Having to file as a small business for the first time was weird, to be honest. But the weirdest was looking at the hours registered (needed to apply for certain tax exempts).
Over 2020, I apparently spen...

This months wallpaper has a bit of a seasonal theme, featuring our leading ladies as a catgirl and bunnylass. I had a great time making it, and figuring out how to work with stuff like body hair, that I hadn't used before, and tails in combination with clothing. I hope you enjoy it.

Some errors are harder to fix than others, but that doesn't mean Brooke will give up on Marv.
Inspired by an off-hand remark by someone on Discord, I thought it was about time Brooke got her own wallpaper. Hope you enjoy it.

So, we've had the release of chapter 5 over the holidays. It was quite intense, but what with the current state of the world being what it is, there wasn't all that much else to do anyway, so there's that.

2021-01-10 15:15:23 +0000 UTC View PostThis should be the final version for chapter 5, containing some fixes and improvements, but NO NEW STORY CONTENT.

I don't mind telling you that getting chapter 5 done was both extremely satisfying and extremely hard. I don't think I've ever put quite so much time into any update of Light of my Life (between 1 and 1.5 Khrs by my best reckoning), and rewarding as that effort was, the road there was not always ...
