Patreon Pin Up 2/17/25: Momiji Wallpaper

For this pic I had this sort of gag premise in mind where Ryu notices his village is under attack in the distant forest while an oblivious Momiji is stroking his pole. (If you've played Ninja Gaiden, you know that damn village is always under attack.) But when the rubber hit the road the joke wasn't landing for me the way I wanted it to and was just kinda confusing in its presenta...

Casey and Raina having a sexual history together has never come up in the comic itself. So far it's only been shown in canonical commissions and strips. So I felt the need to throw in that bit of expository dialogue here reminding readers just who all these players are and their connection to each other. It occurred to me that if someone was just reading TRW they might not even kn...

Well the topic of exposition delivery and how to try and do it well has certainly been a prevalent one in these blogs lately. This goal of this page is to begin to to properly recap the visual novel for those who have only read the comic. It was always my intent to make sure you didn't need to play the VN to follow the comic, and I'll be doing my best to deliver on that in the cha...

Patreon Pin Up 2/3/25: Role Playing

Ever since the strip series I did about this group, I've wanted to put Morgan in a Warren and Douglas sandwich. I was stopped by the fact that canonically Morgan isn't currently in a threesome sort of place sexually or mentally in the comic. But then I remembered that I've already established fantasy counterparts for these three so I've got myself a workaround! Not to say Morgan wouldn't be dow...

Made it! Thank you for waiting! I've also included a quick painted version of the Casey chibi from my delay announcement because she went over surprisingly well on the Discord server. 

So what threw a wrench into my cogs here? Well, what I had planned initially just ended up feeling like a boring exposition dump to me, I guess. I felt like it was necessary to show Halver catching Cas...

TRW Needs an Extra Day to Cook This Week

If you've been around awhile you know that one of the most insidious threats to my release schedule is the scenario where I get a page more than half drawn before I realize that something about the writing/concept is fundamentally flawed in a way that the completed artwork can't be salvaged and I have to simply start the page over. 

The good news is the page is rewritten and I think ...

Rogue Liz and Frank

This commission for OffDaCheney is canonical and takes place immediately after the events of Rein Con, a cosplay contest that Liz participated in. A wildly unfair contest where the laziest costume was deemed the winner. On top of that, Liz had been led to believe she'd have to wrestle the other contestants for the prize. A lie that was only exposed after she'd thrown Morgan around...

If I can, I want to work in little touches here and there to reflect that Switch's human disguise isn't perfect. How she's handling that cupcake is my first attempt in that regard.

Meanwhile I actually found a semi-organic way to work in how Halver was able to know which room to wait for her in! It's not crucial but it was needling me anyway not to have it explained.

And why yes, ...

Patreon Pin Up 1/20/25: Holly's Stream

I figure it's been awhile since I did a pin up that was adjacent to what was currently going on in the comic. This one is canon and takes place during the current scene (that being Switch and Halver in the motel, if you're reading this from the future.)

This idea kind of got away from my initial concept for it, I'll admit. Story-wise it was intended to showcase that as horni as Holly is ...

This Romantic World Page 392

You know for all the sexually confident ladies in my comics I don't think I've presented a real female dom before. Not like this, anyway.

Granted, none of my previous males had a servant/queen relationship with their female partner. I suppose Mary pushed around Kayden a bit, but that was more like bullying than dominating. I don't know, I confess I don't have a ton of knowl...

Kaitlyn

This commission for Shad0w45 features their characters, Kaitlyn and Daniel, quite possibly about to make a baby! I like her look and body type, myself, the way she's built reminds me of the Carter twins from the comic. I liked working on this and I hope you like how she turned out!

This Romantic World Page 391

I hadn't put a ton of thought into what Switch and Halver's dynamic would have been like on their home world, but after making this page I think this is exactly the kind of relationship I'd like for them to have had all along. Halver working tirelessly for her favor only never quite get rewarded the way he's hoping for is pretty funny to me, personally. 

Anyway I feel l...

Patreon Pin Up 1/6/25: Hulkenberg

First pin up of 2025! This time it's the lady knight, Hulkenberg, from Metaphor: Refantazio. I finished it recently and while I won't be spoiling anything, I will be talking a little bit about the characters here so beware if you have plans to play it and want to go in completely blind.

The biggest thing that I'll remember about Metaphor is how solid the main cast was. Hulke...

This Romantic World Page 390

Coming up on 400 pages here! If it's anything like any of the other such milestones so far maybe something cool will happen immediately before or after the big one. XD

The biggest thing that sticks out to me in this scene is what a role reversal it is for Halver, I suppose. He's been shown as a fairly reserved teacher character himself up til now, where he gets to be a flustered student i...

Nadine and Morgan

This commission for ScuzzBucket is, in fact, a record breaker. This is easily the biggest individual job I've ever been hired for! This one is a what-if scenario with Nadine and Morgan from the comic getting it on. This may be non canon but I could see them making pretty good partners, actually. Nadine's motherly boss demeanor would be a solid match for Morgan once she flips into simpering sub ...

This Romantic World Page 389

EDIT: I thought Halver's expression in panel two looked kind of derpy in the cold light of day. Also I thought he should be looking his queen in the eyes when he addresses her.

Last page of 2024! I hope everybody had a good Christmas. I went to a nice dinner party with some friends who also live nowhere near their relatives and then zoned out playing Metaphor Refantazio for the night afte...

It is Indeed Christmas Soon!

And how is everyone doing on that front? Travel plans secured? Presents wrapped? Politically neutral conversation topics prepared for a dinner table full of family members you aren't particularly close with? Well on my end my present to me is that I'll be taking Christmas Day off this week. Meaning TRW will post on Friday instead of the usual Thursday.

Christmas Pin Up 12/23/24

It's been awhile since I drew the OG couple of Casey and Royce. Considering how nice a room they're in here I'll say this one takes place during Switch when they still lived together. XD

Casey and Royce are quite fitting for the last pin up of 2024, it turns out. As this week marks the tenth anniversary since my first post over at Hentai Foundry back in 2014. I've been makin...

To me it makes sense that if your true form is a skeletal demon that doesn't even have a lower jaw, you would absolutely struggle to form words during your first time piloting a human body. Especially if your species communicates through thoughts alone, right? Whether that was worth devoting four panels to is another conversation but I stand by my choice.

So Halver was Swit...

I often complain about the downsides of being able to only produce one page per week of an ongoing story. But taking things one page at a time has its upsides as well. One of which is that I have the ability to make easy changes on the fly based on reader feedback. In this case, the number of comments I got last week about whether or not Switch was talking about eating cupcakes or eating "cupca...

Patreon Pin Up 12/9/2024:Sylvia Wallpaper Pack

I thought about spacing out these themed wallpapers out of fear that it would be a bit repetitious to post such similar pieces back to back. But then I figured that since Sylvia here is the last one I'll be doing in this style I may as well just finish the set now.

I appreciate that Sylvia's popularity seems to have endured among readers even though, like Raina, she's had little presence...

This Romantic World page 386

I had to put some thought here into how Vincent perceived Switch before the late stages of their time together where she took on the appearance of a cop. In the visual novel when she first appears to Isaac, she wasn't wearing anything. But that didn't really fit the vibe I was going for in that fourth panel so I had to get to thinking on what her more advanced but still vestigial look might be ...

Patty and Olivia Swap Partners

This commission for Karmagik features his characters, Patty and Olivia, doing some sharing! Though what I love about this one is that Olivia is so unfaithful to her husband that she brought another guy named Keenan to the couple swap. An premise that would be right at home in TRW. XD

Anyhow these characters are from a comic called Book Club and you can find Karmagik's work right 2024-12-03 02:16:23 +0000 UTC View Post

I swear that's a real robe, I got it from photo reference. It's meant to be dark and see-through, but I found that when you cast a bright light on transparent fabric it seems to just disappear. Which makes Lydia look like she's ready for some kind of sex karate with that robe tie looking like a black belt. Rad as that might sound, it's unintentional on my part. And if I was going for a more ser...

Patreon Pin Up 11/25/24: Raina Wallpaper Pack

Back with Monday pin ups! I took a break from the key party theme this time because after busting ass to finish TRW by Saturday night, I realized on Sunday morning that I was too burned out to come up with a new milf in time for a pin up and I needed something conceptually simpler that I could start on right away. Our merch shop numbers tell me that you guys like the holographic cards and you ...

And we're back with TRW! As usual I don't have much to add here on a sex montage page. So instead I'll mention that I had a great vacation and I feel nice and recharged for now. Also I'm thrilled to announce that the second wave of standees has been a big success so far! I couldn't be happier at what a hit these have been with you guys and I'm already hard at work on wave three.

That's a...

Schedule for the Week

Making a quick post here to let you know what's going down when as my vacation comes to a close. The headline is that TRW will post on Saturday night this week instead of Thursday. 

My flight back to Florida leaves Tuesday morning well before sunrise. I have secured a the most winding flight path possible across America with nice long layovers dividing the three sepa...

This Romantic World Page 383 and I'm on Vacation Next Week

I don't really feel like I could get away with being coy about who our masked guest here is. Even without the beauty mark, Mandi's giant ass is a dead giveaway. I put some thought into what kind of disguise she might have. At first I was thinking a more elaborate masquerade sort of look. But I couldn't find one in that style that I liked and just sort of drifted to the Jem and the Holograms loo...
