Final Sneak Peek for Chapter 16, Part 2 (NSFW)

This weekend has had a couple of curveballs, including a devilishly difficult animation sequence where I had to throw everything out and start from scratch (wasting a few hours), but I'm nearly across the finish line. While I have a few additional rend...

Sneak Peek: Chapter 16 Part 2 (Super SFW; light spoilers)

I'm not usually so vague with sneak peeks, but in addition to working on renders through the weekend, I setup the scene for the final set I still need to work on. That, as you can probably deduce, is a romance scene with a very special character.

Sneak Peek (SFW) - Chapter 16, Pt 2

Hi again! As I mentioned, I've been making good progress on renders for this update. I've been trying to do more with shadows and dim lighting. When we were first in Mayhew's gallery, everything was brightly lit. Now, during an "after hours" discussion...

Sneak Peek: Chapter 16 Part 2 (SFW)

Work on the sex scene is mostly done (I need to work on some climax shots, but the "animation sequences" are all finished), so I've started work on the plot/exposition scene. As these involve far fewer situations in which characters are to...

Sneak Peek (NSFW): Chapter 16 Part 2 (and Progress Update)

Hi all! Wanted to give you a few screenshots as I finish up this scene with everyone's favorite weretiger (okay, our only weretiger, but he's still a favorite) as well as a general, end of month progress update.

This scene has been a bit complicated due to the lighting and posing, but I've been really happy with how it has been shaping up....

The script is 90% done, with the only parts remaining to be writing out the two optional sex scenes and tying off the end of the release. I have all the substance, but just haven't quite decided on the...
