Hey everyone, just want to take a few to discuss a couple things regarding the progress of the visual novel. The big announcement is that for the month of May only, I won't be doing the Monday pinups because I want to take that time to get the next game update finished. Obviously I'll still be posting TRW comic pages and strips, I'm just taking a break from the two Monday pin ups and Isaac's Adventures that I would normally do in a given month. 

So why make this mo...

I'm aware that most of my readers aren't here just for the smut, and that world building is an important part of the TRW package. But I still wonder if I'm pushing my luck with an update that's fifty percent inanimate objects with only zoomed out shots of fully clothed women. Did this little interlude work for you? Or was two pages too long a break to take in the middle of a sex scene? I'm always looking to improve how I pace my story, so feel free to share any thoughts you have on the matter...

TRW Strips #049

When I came up with these strips the intent was to make them 100% detached from the main story. And while they largely have been, a few TRW firsts have crept in since I started. Case in point: this is not only the first time Luka has been shown with clothes on, but also the first time she and Elianna have interacted directly. 

It's yet to be shown in the game or comic, but I picture every major business in Castlewood having the Valette name attached to it. Elianna's father is the f...

Little early in the day for TRW right? Well since I'm totally nocturnal at the moment I have to stay a day ahead of schedule to meet my deadlines and I figure, if it's done now, why wait to post it?

So, lots to unpack here! At the top is Vincent once again, a character I like to remind you exists whenever I can until he gets a spotlight eventually. As for the girl he's with: in the recent update of the visual novel, it was mentioned that futa/dickgirls exist in TRW, and there a...

Patreon Pin Up 4/12/21

I haven't been able to do much retro game collecting lately, but this month I splurged on Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, and I've been having a blast going through it again after all these years. This here is my take on Charlotte Aulin, one of two main characters from that particular entry. 

I wouldn't be surprised if many of my readers know the name Castlevania largely from the badass Netflix series. But that show wasn't the first time the franchise crossed paths...

Considering the cast of TRW are predominantly eighteen-year-olds, the fact that I've never shown any of the males accidentally blowing early before now may be the most unrealistic thing in the entire comic. 

TRW Strips #048

My thanks to Marty for the question!

Realized with this one that out of all the married women I've introduced, the two perverted hedonists (Sylvia and Luka) are the only ones who canonically have yet to cheat while married. Meanwhile the ones I would think to have more self restraint, like Raina and Ann, ended up being the cheaters. As a writer that probably says something about me that's best not to dwell on. Hope you guys like the strip! :)

Decided to ease off the banter gradually in the end, as I think it adds up that they'd get less talky the closer they get to climax. Speaking of dialog I had to do a bit of a ret con on the spelling of a certain pet name. In a previous page, Shiro called her "Nadie" which I think is cute but it reads too easily like a typo of her full name "Nadine." So I'm changing it to "Nady." I went back and changed the previous page, so it will be consistent in the eventual PDFs and website at least.

White Rabbit Casey

Bam! I'm a furry now! From this day on my content will be all anthro all the time and I'm changing my name to Furbach aaand that's the extent of any April Fools shenanigans you'll get from me. It was a fun time, while it lasted. 

Me having this concept art to share was just a coincidence actually. The next TRW wallpaper will have an Alice in Wonderland theme, and with my raging lesbian OC Abbey filling in for Alice, it just made sense that it would be Casey as the white rabbit for ...

Avatar Collection

Here's all the previous ones if you missed them!

Patreon Pin Up 3/29/21

By now you might be going, "More Avatar characters? Is Reinbach obsessed as well as handsome?" It's true that I did just do a picture of adult Katara a few months ago, and I generally try not to overuse characters from a single IP too close together if I can help it. Chalk this one up to being a coincidence. I saw this pose in my reference folder and wanted to come up with a character known for flexibility to fill it. The acrobatic Ty Lee was the first one that came to mind, so I pai...

Isaac's Adventures #018

Will Isaac survive sex with both orc sisters? Find out in the attached PDF!

Still figuring out the details on how to write Nadine and Shiro as a couple. I like their banter, but I wonder where I should know when to cut it off. Here feels about right, but we'll see. Let me know what you think if you've got an opinion!  

TRW Strips #047

My thanks to Ally for the question! And my thanks as well to everyone who offered additional questions yesterday when I had writer's block. I've got them all added to my list to be pulled from in the future. :)

Quite a few years ago now, Mia Khalifa was my favorite p.o.r.n. (fucking seriously Patreon?) star. She's since retired and I don't blame her, sounds like the industry really chewed her up and spit her out, but that's beside the point. The point is I remember she did a vi...

Regarding Today's Strip

Hey gang the short version is that I'm running a day behind on this week's strip, and it will be posted tomorrow. So what happened? Well I thought I had an idea for the strip locked down all weekend, up until I actually made it and realized that what I had was one of those ideas that was way better in my head than it was in reality. 

So rather than post what I thought was a "meh" strip for the week, I went back to the questions list to try and come up with somethin...

Reinbach's Canon Story Collection

Attached to this post, you'll find a PDF that contains over fifty illustrated short stories created during the last six years since I started making smutty comics for a living. Collected by me and painstakingly arranged in chronological order by Kaldonis, every entry in this collection is canonical to the universe of Switch and This Romantic World. 

So what's not in there? Anything I couldn't find a high res original of, all the Casey and Sylvia stuff (sorry but those have...

I looked up a list of rare birds in Eastern Washington to make sure this page was as authentic as possible. Meanwhile the only panel this page needed was the top one, showing that the principal is on his way to Nadine's office. The rest is just me having fun. :D

I think Shiro might be betraying his eagerness here, he jumps in before she even has a chance to answer his question. XD

Patreon Pin Up 3/15/21

This here is the star of Atelier Ryza, the latest in a series of Japanese role playing games that have a heavy focus on creating your own weapons and equipment. The first game, Atelier Marie, came out in 1997, and there have been twenty-one sequels released in the years since. These days it feels like every game that comes out has a crafting/gathering mechanic, but the Atelier series was doing it before it was cool. 

If the idea of jumping into such a massive franchise is daunting ...

The dialog on this page may not be final, specifically on that last panel. Here's an issue I'm sure anyone who's ever done any creative writing can relate to: the nagging sensation that something you genuinely think is your idea is in fact a line you heard somewhere else and you simply forgot where, making you an unwitting plagiarist as a result. If you recognize that line about not booty calling someone who cares too much about you from a sitcom or something, please let me know and I'll try ...

TRW Strips #046

My thanks to Mr. Bugs for the question! Btw Mary's favorite hentai is Mezzo Forte because it's the best.

Back when I was working on Switch, I didn't put much thought to what kind of logos or imagery the characters had on their clothes. In one scene Casey had a Shovel Knight t-shirt on, a bit out of character since Casey is supposed to be a country girl who barely knows what a video game is. But that sort of thing just didn't register to me at the time.

Anyhow, I didn't want to do ...

Should be working now.

I forgot to set the link to the PC game to be accessible to everyone. I feel quite the fool!

This Romantic World Page 181

In most cases, I use Trimble Sketchup for my backgrounds. When I need a new room for the comic, I either use one of their free community models or cobble one together myself. Purists will argue it's kind of cheating but I swear by it, honestly. On a given page I'd prefer to spend my time making sure I get the faces and anatomy just right, rather than waste hours struggling to draw a curved staircase.

Why bring this up? Because working with stock 3D assets sometimes has unintentional sid...

Courtney's Threesome Part Two

The story concludes with part two in the PDF below, hope you guys like how it plays out! 

Working on the Monday Pin up

Hey guys just wanted to give a heads up that I'll be working on the Monday pin up a bit late into the night here. Underestimated the time it would take to get a threesome pose to look right AND write the story to go along with it. But I'm hard at work and I'll be back with the post later tonight.

As always, if your name is missing from this list please let me know! I'll get you in before the full release later this week.

Isaac's Adventures #017

Looks like Isaac's pelvis may be in danger! You'll find the full story in the attached PDF, hope you like it! 

This Romantic World Page 180 (And game status update.)

To those of you in the Discord server who were trying to guess who Miss Holt's secret lover was, I apologize. The game was rigged. Ages ago I let it slip that Miss Holt was in one of the few exclusive romantic relationships in the whole story, and if that's the case why would Shiro be partaking in oral sex contests at Jane's parties? Well for what it's worth, that will be completely explained in this scene. 

Meanwhile, onto the game! This has been a big one for us, but the ...
