Hey all! As some predicted this MWM I'm giving you a sneak peek at the new style of Belle animations that are going in to version 0.4.6.
The core elements of the animations will stay the same, however, they'll receive a dynamic camera to put them in line with The Party chapter and also have another quality pass to improve the animation with the techniques I've used in the year since their original creation.
It's also possible thanks to all you amazing patrons - your su...

In short? We're about halfway there!
You might notice that on the graph there's a bar for animation that unlike the other elements that should by all rights be done is not fully complete.
Why is that you might wonder? I'll show you in this week's MWM ;)

Howdy hey, another animation test (this one took waay longer than it should have to make), I call it "The Dancer".
It has been good to test the limits of how much this new program can and cannot do when working with Daz. Definitely learnt a lot in the last week, some good some bad.
I also spent some time this week experimenting with motion capture as well using a Microsoft Kinect. What I've learnt so far? There...

Since we're getting close to it I've been tossing around the idea of making the 'hitting 1000 patrons' community goal be to open a Discord channel. This would allow the community to chat, share pics, be able to ask direct questions, come up with ideas and (if you're into it) do some BE roleplay in our own slice of the internet.
It'll only really be worth it if enough people use it though, so I figured I'd ask - is this something you'd be interested in?

Hey guys, I thought I'd give you a progress update on the next version of The Pill with this nifty new chart. This version will finally bring Belle back into the new Unity build.
Right now I'm in the process of pulling all the dialogue out of VN maker, then comes matching up the expressions, animations and so forth.
I'll be posting these weekly as development continues. Cheerio!

Hey folks, we've got an interesting MWM this week.
Last month I decided to invest in some better animation software (iClone for those interested) and have been figuring out how to get my content from Daz Studio into and out of it.
Well today I have successfully done just that! The above animation is still rendered in Daz Studio but the core of the animation work was done in the new software.
I've still go...

I'm back again with the second monthly reward! This 45 image BE story was suggested by the lovely Lady Grove. Who hasn't been stuck at home and wanted to do something with themselves? Splice in some magic and trickery and presto! Boobs!

Hey guys, I'm just putting the final touches on the second reward for the month, but in the meantime, I wanted to share a vid sent to me by patron Big Tiddy.
It's a compilation of Grove works set to the tune of 'I Must Increase my Bust' from the Lords of Acid, so anyone who was around in the 90's prepare to have some flashbacks.
I had some myself, seeing 3 years of works compiled into a 4-minute vi...

To celebrate the release of the new arc of The Pill, the first reward for this month is an animation starring the two gals themselves!
This time they have withdrawn from the party to the restrooms, slammed down a handful of pills and have decided to settle their differences with an old fashioned Pill Off! Who will win?!
This fully audio'd animation is my longest yet and definitely the most complicated. It was in part designed to compliment the game with the girls transforming in w...

I'm trying out a new type of poll this time. I've often had people ask for sequels to stories that I've done in the past and I thought I'd let you guys choose which one gets a Part 2.
Vote for the story where you'd like to see what happens next. Like real-world sequels, the story may follow the characters immediately after the story, revisit them after a time jump or have similarly themed elements happen to someone else.
The winner of the poll will be one of next month's Sweater S...

Hey folks, hope your week is treating you well.
I'm busily working away at the next Pill update and am happy to announce that all the assets have now been created and added into Unity. I have officially started the testing phase, which puts me on track with my 23rd June estimated release date.
For this week's MWM to whet your whistle I have an animation that was cut from The Pill's latest addition. I still reck...

Hey folks, just giving you a sense of where the latest version is at. Right now I'm in the process of herding cats so to speak. I've got almost all the elements completed and it's just a matter of putting them in the right places.
It's not a very creative process but needs to be done. Today for example I selected out a stash of new music tracks to go into the new chapter, continued compiling into unity and was fixing up some animations & poses that didn't end up matching the c...

After days of searching, you finally locate the innermost sanctum of the forbidden temple. Grime covers the walls and a dusty odour fills the air. This place has not seen humans set foot in it for centuries, if not longer.
A small spider eyes you wearily, a newcomer to its so-far private dominion. The room is lit by a single beam of light that shines in the centre of the room, illuminating your quarry.
The object's simple appearance belies its power. The lege...

Howdy hey all and welcome to June!
Have you guys heard about the latest discovery from NASA? Apparently Earth is circling a previously undiscovered black hole – which due to time dilation explains why this year has felt 100,000,000 years long.
I think we can agree that we’ll remember this year for a long time to come, but one thing you don’t have to remember is where all the assorted content is on the Grove, because it’s collated right here in this post! (SEGUE!)

Hey guys, I'm just posting to give you a heads up that come July Patreon is updating their taxation policy now meaning they have to collect and pay tax on pledges in regions that require it.
Some of you already pay this tax (VAT for example), and others will be in areas that it won't affect (for example, only 36 of the US states charge it) but for some it'll mean a small monthly charge increase.
The reason for the change is that Patreon has more or less lost the argument that digi...

First reward for this month is a sex based BE growth animation! I normally end these with a climax or something similar, but I liked the idea that after she realized what was happening that she just kept at it throughout the night, pound after pound, inch after inch... I'll leave it to your imagination as to how big she ends up ;)

Hey folks, I thought I'd give you another update on the progress of the next update for The Pill.
So this week was all about going through the script and modelling out the various emotions (and size states) that each of the girls went through. In all, it's about 50 different poses, which is pretty close to the number of poses in each of the other two chapters.
As you might guess, this chapter has gotten bigger than I originally intended. I had initially planned to have this be an ...

For every good Belle you could use a good Trish, and so is the case for this week's Midweek Mammary - debuting Trish's new look for the upcoming combo arc. This time she's rocking a boob window and is taking no hostages. She'll break your heart, your wallet and your spine (if you're into that).

For this week's MWM I decided to give you a bit of a brief taste of the design of Belle that will feature in the upcoming arc of The Pill. "Is that a new top!?" You say - Yes. But I do feel it gives her a bit of a different flavor, and matches with the new situation she's in.
Take it easy and keep safe out there!

Hey everyone, welcome to May! I have to start with an apology, in April I predicted the onset of Flying Death Squids which was clearly preposterous and overly dramatic. Instead, we have the much more reasonable Murder Hornets!
So buckle up for whatever May has on offer with a handy collection of boobs all in one place!
