What's on the Horizon

There's a lot coming, so I want to take a second to lay it all out. I really appreciate everyone sticking around through a bit of a release drought. COVID knocked me out pretty bad, but I'm almost back to normal.

Pure Hedonist poster set

"Pure Hedonist". I've had the audio produced for a while, but never any visuals to go with it. Today that changes! I've highlighted it before, but for those of you who haven't listened to it yet, here's a summary of the story:

"A shadowy organization is developing a device to push its target beyond the very limits of sexual experience. Cold, mechanical, and precise. How do they test this sort of thing? They throw in a cyborg! All the good ones come with a diagnostic mode that...

July Rollup

Took me a minute to write this, as I look back and realize I did a lot of stuff last month. It really did fly by though.
The funding goals I set up moved about 20% faster than I'd planned for. Thank you all for that! I've already started spending the "New PC" budget, with the first purchase being a pen tablet. It's been immensely helpful on this month's posters and texture edits. Here's the rundown of everything that happened last month:
- Set up funding goals
- Wrote and released...

New prop in the works

This one's for the BDSM Bros. I've been talking (thanks, Google Translate!) with SabuTen, a talented Japanese artist who sketches creative bondage props and predicaments. His designs are really interesting, often blending mechanical and biological components in novel ways.

One of his props caught my eye, and he gave me the ...

Group Shot

Everyone smile!

Just a quick poster with all the girls. Each Fanbox tier now has its own "fan card", and I think they look pretty nice! (Note from the future: RIP...)

Feel free to download the full-size posters. It's cute girls, you can't go wrong!

Slumber Party!!

I added four posters (one exclusive!) to the Slumber Party set, so it's a bit more of a proper "series" now. It seemed wasteful creating a whole scene for one poster! The previously-released poster is now #3 in the complete set.

These girls are so cute I could just die...

Slumber Party?

Animations are coming along. In the meantime, I have a nice new poster for you!

It's a slumber party. Not gonna lie, I just wanted to do a piece of art with a huge dong. I usually aim for the more "realistic" size of things, but I had some new penis tech to try out and this is the result. Enjoy!

Edit: See the full release for everything!

Goals in Sight

Quick update— I'm now tracking monetary goals on SubscribeStar. Though everything is "over there", the numbers are pre-calculated to account for subscribers here. This is how I'm going to track milestones in the growth of VLVT. When we pass thresholds, I'll add new ones. The first goals:

New PC

Pretty self-explanatory. Research showed that SFM's renders are CPU-bound, which means ...

June Rollup

What a month. There were some difficulties (detailed below), but I managed to put in full-time hours for most of it. Here's what I worked on:

• "TYDtWD" Episode 4:

◦ 65 seconds of almost-flawless animation

◦ Preliminary work on the audio

• Juice That Makes You Cum Super Hard:

◦ Juicebox package design and model edits

◦ Poster series release (10 posters!)

• 5 seconds of animation for Belly of the Beast

• Cus...

TYDtWD Episode 4 Trailer

Development on Take Your Daughter to Work Day Episode 4 continues. It's been a grueling build, but oh man was it worth it.

It's considerably more ambitious than Episodes 1-3, but not to the point that that there's a visible gap. It's just that this scene involves lots of facial animation and full-body motion. I'm making these girls come to life. I think having all this nuance and life will actually help make the content from 1-3 look better when they...

The Juice is Loose

Heads-up! "Juice That Makes You Cum Super Hard" has been updated… a lot! From 3 posters to 10, with a story and everything. I just couldn't leave this alone until I took it where it needed to go :>

I'm really happy with how it turned out. I feel like I nailed the text styles and short story elements.

Juice Timelapse

For anyone interested in the process, I ran a screen recorder during post-production for one of the new "Juice" posters. This is kind of a sneak-peek, actually, as this set will be coming out tomorrow (!!)

This particular pose wouldn't work at all in SFM, but I knew I could correct its shortcomings in Photoshop. Many posters are "saved in the edit" like this!

The process took about 57 minutes, which I squished down to 9 for the video. No music or...

Juice That Makes You Cum Super Hard

I've noticed a trend on Twitter with artists drawing "Juice That Makes You Cum Super Hard" and you know I can't miss out on that.

This was a fun little project to distract me from TYDtWD Episode 4, which is eating my time like nothing else. I had a lot of fun designing the packaging and building the prop… and Sunny always makes me happy. I like both depicting her smug composure and making her lose it here.

Update: This is now a 10-poster ...

Survey Results

I'm going to try being transparent with the survey information. Why not? I guess because I feel compelled to put a disclaimer:

Please keep in mind that all of the major categories here are things I like. I'm not going to abandon anything I like on account of it being more or less popular.

May Rollup and Updates

Hey everyone! I'm gonna keep this nice and brief, and sprinkle some updates in as well. Here's what happened in May:

• Finished and released Bad Vibes

• Poster series for Traffic

• "Realistic" dildo model tuning and texture

• Alice Williams texture work

• Posed and began animating TYDtWD Episode 4

• TYDtWD Episode 4 posters

These lists are usually longer, but it's probably better this way. I took a couple days o...

Hey baby, let me get to know you

I've created a short survey to help me better understand you guys. I want to create content that satisfies you all, as well as letting me see who's into niche stuff. Trying to make this a collaborative experience, you know?

I really appreciate all the support!

Episode 4 Soon™

Maybe before the end of the month? The animation has taken form and Samantha's getting a real arm workout in this one. As I suspected, I wound up turning Sarah around, so we'll be blessed by a bounty of beautiful booty.

Lighting, posing, and props are just about done. The difference a few days makes on lighting and details is huge:

Traffic, Part 1

~ In the back of a van, her new prison awaits. She's not strong enough to free herself from his grip, will she be strong enough to withstand the tortures of her human traffickers? ~

This poster overwhelmingly won the last vote. I was surprised, honestly, but a lot of you joined up to see BDSM/torture stuff, so it makes sense:

Inside the Storeroom

TYDtWD Episode 4 is coming along. The scene is set and most of the required preliminary work is done. I've got a handful of textures to work on for closeups.

Here are some early WIP posters for you. Lighting is sure to change, and I'm probably going to have Sarah facing the other way in the animation.

Bad Vibes Postmortem

Abstract

Bad Vibes was awesome. It was fun to build, challenging, and never once felt like a chore.

The Audio

Maybe the project's biggest success. Most of the commentary has centered on this aspect, at least.

One of the main reasons I started BV with Sherry was to dip into the pool of interesting voice lines I've been sitting on. RE2 has some incredible voice acting, but this is all stuff I can't use in a 10-20sec loop be...

Bad Vibes

~Sherry's just like us right now: all stocked up with nowhere to go~

A lot of you are fans of my long animations, so here's my offering to you. Almost 2 minutes of action—POV, bondage, toys, anguish, and atmosphere. All of the stuff I really love to do. This is probably my best work since 'Bear Trap', and I have all of you to thank. Enjoy!

April Rollup

I almost forgot to come up for air to write this! I've been totally wrapped up in 'Bad Vibes', 4-5 hours a day not including render-time. It's good to have a longer animation after doing so many shorties.

Bad Vibes is still slated for the 6th. It's already pushing 1 minute 32 seconds, which means there's not much left to animate. I'm averaging 5-10 seconds of animation a day, depending on how demanding the segment is. There should be just enough time to handle post-production...

Quick Update and May Poll

Things are progressing steadily on the new animation. It's now called 'Bad Vibes', and it looks like it's going to end up around 1:30 in length (pray I do not alter it further). Part of me wants to go all in and make it twice as long, but that'd only water it down. The story feels nice and tidy the way it is.

Speaking of story, this one's real spicy. I extracted hundreds of voice lines from RE2, and Sherry's dialogue just kept steering this one darker and darker....

Sherry Stocked Preview

Sometimes inspiration strikes out of nowhere, and this animation is proof of that. This was never meant to be a full scene, but... here we are!

Lighting and materials are just about done, and I've already finished 45 seconds of animation. Most of those frames are fairly finalized, too. I'm currently reviewing the Sherry audio samples I have to determine how much longer I can make this. I'm also considering having two male actors (or splitting it into two parts), but I may jus...

TYDtWD Episode 3.1 and Current Projects

TYDtWD Episode 3.1

I spent a few days doing touchups for Episode 3. I don't intend to rush releases very often, but tight deadlines do get works out the door. I'm a firm believer that "finished is better than perfect", but I'd like to at least maintain a very high level of quality.

In that vein, I've redone the soundtrack extensively, *whetted* the dong, and patched up lots of janky details that never should have seen the light of day.

If y...

Wand Tease

Just so it's not a secret: I'm working on some touch-ups for Episode 3 of TYDtWD. I can excuse one or two hiccups in a production, but any more than that and I'm remastering like George Lucas. It's not too time-consuming either. (I mean, even if it was, where else am I going these days?)

One of the stops on my way was fixing up the Hitachi. Ol' Reliable. There are a lot of subtle movements and changes that I just wasn't capturing, and it was bothering the heck ou...

March Rollup

As I'm sure everyone knows, this past month was pretty crazy… in general. That said, current events have given me full-time hours to pour into SFM.

Two animation releases in a month feels really good, especially when I've spent so much time improving assets in-between. February was slow, but I feel like March made up for it:

• Animated and released "Dragon Tamer"

• Finished tentacle throne asset for "Belly of the Beast"

• Finalized shot...

Take Your Daughter to Work Day - Episode 3

Cassie finally gets her turn!

This one's a little more focused than the other episodes, having only one pairing. Cassie's really cute, but hard to work with. Well, hard for me... I'm sure the people she's working with at the agency are happy with her performance.

This was a lot of fun to make, if a little hectic getting it done in these last hours of March. As a result of the mad rush there's a tiny bit of this I'm not happy with. It'll get the r...

Building a Safe Workplace

…for NSFW activities!

I'm realizing that keeping to a monthly schedule for "Take Your Daughter to Work Day" can be really detrimental to the overall quality of each piece. The ideas come easily, but it's worthless if I don't take the time to execute them to the best of my ability.

Episode 3 will release in a couple days— almost a month later than I'd estimated. I backed myself into a corner by rushing and using unpolished assets, and the result just wasn'...

You Sit on a Throne... of Tentacles!

Or: "MOM SAID IT'S MY TURN ON THE MEAT SEAT!"

The tentacle throne has been a bit of a pain. It had stature problems in the cavernous scene I built, and for some reason it turned to confetti whenever I tried to make substantial edits. Finally, I've finished squashing all those bugs and got it into the scene. It looks pretty good!

I added a bunch of controls so Sarah can pull at the restraining… fixtures? Sphincters? Whatever they're called, they can wiggle a...
