Suffering from Severe Creative Block... 🤦🏻‍♂️

Hey everybody...

I've been struggling this last week on how to present the next part of the story in a creative manner. Every pose and angle that I've tried just hasn't looked good in the frame and its been very frustrating. I pushed back the post date hoping that I would be able to find the angles and look I wanted - to no avail. I took some time yesterday to do some "free writing" as it were to try and get my creative juices flowing (by doing a simple nerd MGTF)

I am hunkering d...

Happy Valentines Day!

Here is a little valentines post for you all today! I will be working on the comic tomorrow and posting the next update in the evening. 

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

SPECIAL IMAGE RELEASE - Bodybuilder Musculature Test

Over the last few weeks there have been some technology updates for the base figure details and muscle groupings that go into the characters I create. This was a test to see how well these new details are. And WOWZA! Two things I noticed right away: The quad grouping and separation is mind boggling. There are now sinewy texture by the knee joints, there is increased detail on the Glutes and also up the side of the rib cage. Increased skin/pore detail is noticeable upon close renders as well.....

Hey all!!!

As with our usual posting schedule - every Sunday - I will be posting the fist couple pages of our newest comic “The Reformation”

It is out of its general WIP stage and production has been going this week.

As it continues - more prelim images may be added to the WIP section. So if that’s in your rewards pack be sure to check that for updates. Otherwise all of those images would be provided in the “test images” folder of your rewards packs once...

SPECIAL COMIC RELEASE!

This week as I was getting things set up for The Reformation Comic - and was fine tuning characters, and render settings on my desktop computer, I had an idea. This lead me to keep working through - while my laptop rendered some of the Prison images etc for the Main story line. The result was what you have before you! 

As I stated earlier, right around the new year, I want 2021 to be more inclusive of ALL sorts of Muscle Growth and Transformation. That means that here and there I m...

New Comics - POLL

First off - Apologies, I thought that I could post a poll last night using my phone app, and of course that option isn't available 😂. 

ANNNYway - Here is the poll I was referring to in the post yesterday.

This will give me the direction you'd like to see us take our stories for the new year. These are arranged in the order of the top three winners from the last poll taken  

NOTE: Ther...

QUESTIONS FOR YOU?

First off - a poll will be coming later today as to which direction we will be taking our stories in the next months!

Secondly - how many of you get notifications when I post updates to a comic in the feed? I recently was talking with a friend who told me (even when I click the “notify patrons” button before posting) that he never gets a notification of updates.

The reason I ask this, is because I have had several people not know that an update is posted and leave...

Gym Bros ii - final updates and rewards

After rendering and re-rendering some 30+ odd images this last week, to try and catch back up, I will be assembling the final comic part and posting at some point today. Rewards packs for this will then be posted in the coming days as I will need to compile all the different parts of the packs.

Thank you all again for your continued support of me and my artwork. Without you none of this, working as a MG artist, would be possible!

Much love!

-Pete

"The App Sucks" and other exit surveys

I wanted to take a moment to address and issue that is currently effecting my lively hood, and I'm not sure quite what to say...

I have had several people leave sponsor ship this last month and their reason for leaving was that "The App Sucks..." or "I can't view the images" etc. 

I need to make 2 things very clear, 1. THE APP does suck and 2. I have no control over this.

Firstly, The app really should ONLY be used as a means of receiving notification about posts from c...

First GymJunkie Muscle Media Test MGTF Animation!

Welllllll..... Here we go!

"This is only a test... a test of the Gym Junkie Broadcast System!"

This is a very rough Gray Render animation test that I just completed of a Peter Parker Model Transforming into a Beeeefy Version of Thanos. (From the GJMM Comic Spider-Man: Growing Pains)

The goal is to keep learning and getting better at these animations and camera moves. I will then be moving to decide how to do small animations each month, and include those in some of the Rewar...

Whaaaaat Could This Be!?

Let me first start with the phrase, " A couple irons in the fire."

With the addition of this new computer line up - I will have the ability to render much faster, and in turn, get into MG, and TF animations. The above image - is from a test render for a TF that I am working on and will be sharing with you all shortly!

Not to worry, the comic is still in production as well, and that will be updated this weekend in the WIP post from earlier this week. Once I have all the characters ...
