Hoping you all had a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Progress on Octoshade 3 is going well. It is in the middle of rendering, and has also entered the editing phase using what I've already rendered! My goal is to have it out in January. In the meantime, here's a preview of the thumbnail that will be used for the Newgrounds release:

On top of that, you can find a clip of the rendered animation over on Bluesky! Note that it's a WIP, and any visual oddities will be fixed for the final version.

That's all for now. See you all in 2025!

A lot has happened since my last post. As I previously announced, I have been making more of an effort to make Bluesky a more viable platform for my usual art posting - once again, Twitter will still be used, but as of now I have exclusively been posting art there. On top of that, new art will be released exclusively to Bluesky first, with Twitter receiving them the following day, so if you want to see my new art as soon as it's available, Bluesky is the best place for that.

Additionally, in my last post, I promised that if I reached 500 followers before the end of October, I would work on a follow-up to my Marina mimic animation, with Callie and Marie as the main characters. Well, not only did I reach that goal, but I greatly surpassed it, now at 870 followers as of this post! As promised, I have been spending this month working on the short, and it's almost finished production!

This is just one preview of the upcoming animation. I have more preview screenshots as well as video available over on Bluesky! I also have new previews for Hypnoshade 3 available there as well, including an OC I made just for the animation 👀

That's all for now. I'll release a new update here once I have a confirmed release date for the Callie x Marie short.

Disclaimer

I do not plan on leaving Twitter anytime soon regardless of what's currently happening, so if you're already following me there, don't fret!

In response to the recent announcements made about Twitter, I have been making an effort to make my Bluesky page a more viable platform to post art. It has been doing very well so far, already surpassing 200 followers.

That being said, I want to impose a little challenge to encourage people to follow my Bluesky page - if it reaches 500 followers by the end of this month (aka end of October), I will spend November developing a sequel to Marina vs the Barrel Mimic, a short that I released last month, featuring Callie and Marie!

Use the URL above, or the link on my NG profile to find my Bluesky page. I've been enjoying my time using the page up to this point. While it doesn't have the same video capabilities as Twitter, it's an otherwise amazing alternative.

The long awaited third chapter of Operation Octoshade is now in development!

I have a full script prepared, and am currently deep into the second scene in the animation phase. I will not be giving an exact release date for this project - it will be ready when it's ready. That said, I will make an effort to have at least the animation done by the end of the year, if not the full project.

This will also not be a 30 minute behemoth like Vampire's Curse was. The current goal is 15 minutes, 20 minutes maximum.

Introducing the main villain of my upcoming Cosmo comic! A brief explanation of her abilities and weaknesses. You can find a textless version on Twitter

Wanted to reveal her before the comic's release, just so readers have an idea of her capabilities and are not confused by what happens in the comic.

Speaking of which, the comic's frames are all finished. Just need to add some visual elements, then they'll be ready to render and edit together.

EDIT: Publishing of the comic has officially begin! Find part 1 and future daily page releases here!

A new comic featuring Cosmo on her hero escapades against a new villain OC is in active development!

This comic won't have heavy lewd content like my previous Cosmo comics, but it will have some nudity and suggestive visuals (and a good amount of mind control for those in my audience that enjoy that ;) )

My plan is to have the panels done, rendered and in editing by the end of the month, and begin releasing the comic in April. As usual with my comic releases, it will be going live first on Twitter (and Bluesky for those that prefer that platform) with new pages daily until the comic has concluded, then it will go live as full posts on other platforms later.

Marina and Marie challenge each other to a game of Tableturf, with some interesting stakes.

Find out how their game ends in my first animated short of 2024, Tableturf Tie-Up, releasing January 25th on Newgrounds!

A 25-minute long 18+ animated special 7 months in the making

Releasing October 30th!

Progress update on Vampire's Curse - I am now in the process of rendering the last frames I need to finish the edit. The sound edit is roughly 50% done. At this rate, I'm on track to get this done well before Oct. 31st.

Rough length estimate: 25-30 minutes.

Just to quell expectations accordingly, don't expect a majority of that time to be sex scenes. There will be several of those present, but it will only take up roughly a third of the run time.

Plenty of fanservice and lewd imagery throughout though!

My new Shantae x Tomb Raider animated short is available now!

This short isn't a full-on NSFW animation - like the Splatoon Octoshade animation from earlier this year, while this short will have lewd imagery and a short sex sequence near the end, it's more action oriented.

Either way, I'm happy with how this short came out despite it being done in under a month, so I hope you all enjoy it just as much! (Yes, it will have sound)
