Gallery test and status update!

Hi again. I am back with a small status update and a new image gallery to try out! As noted in last month’s poll, people supposedly wanted image galleries; so I made one, as I said I would. It is linked up top, and it is comprised of all the old RTL story arc previews in chapter order for convenience. There are many options for this gallery thing I found, but the defaults seem pretty good so far; however, I will likely tweak it around a bit to see what I can do a bit later on. Depending on feedback I get regarding this new gallery and/or the usage/views it gets, I may add more/other galleries depending; though I am not totally sure what else would make for a good gallery other than the mini-set previews.

As for the status update, I have some new stuff done for the game; most of it relating to the middle/lower endings… the top one is not done yet. I am also still trying to work out how to render this last scene set properly due to the high number of figures… but I may just have to do it the hard way, which is just trial and error. I still can’t say for sure that it will get totally “done” before next month’s rewards go out; but it will be close. There is just so much I want to do with many aspects that I need to tone down or hold back on for balancing/time reasons. Even if I want to work on it for another month though, that should definitely be it; so this is close to the end either way. Once it is “done” I plan to send it to a few artist friends of mine to hopefully get some feedback; my patrons will also get it of course, but it will stay in the mid level tier for a couple more months while I hopefully make some adjustments/fixes from the feedback I get.

Anyway, I should be back in a week or so with something; in the mean time, please vote in the current polls if you haven’t yet and let me know how the new gallery thing looks/works. As per usual I get little to no feedback regarding anything… so it would be nice if that could change for once. (Otherwise I just have to guess whether or not people like it from pageviews, which doesn’t really work well.)

July Patreon mini-set preview here!

Hey again. I am back with a preview of a fancy new Patreon set, which admittedly got a bit out of hand. The set features Karen having a kinky dream about a whole different kind of pregnancy; and there is a lot of assorted tentacle action. (Including some egg insertion as well as her birthing tiny tentacles; as mentioned, I didn’t exactly plan to take it this far but it just sort of happened… so I might as well include it now.) I haven’t done tentacles in a mini-set for a while and I wanted to test/fix a bunch of tentacle related stuff I had, and all that and more happened; making this a very nice and very special mini-set.

I actually can’t say right now how many images it is exactly, as I had to re-render everything in the set starting earlier today (it’s still going) due to me fixing one thing that bothered me. It is at least seven images though; and it will likely end up being more for one of many reasons. This will go out to appropriate patrons of mine starting with next month’s main rewards message, along with however much of the game I can have done by then. (Still aiming to get it close to done, but admittedly that is unlikely.) We will see what I come back with in next week’s status update.

As per usual, if you want to support me and my assorted works and maybe even get access to these mini-sets and/or lots of other rewards too, (including last month’s story set and/or the current game beta) check out my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart

New commission and status update!

Hey again. I am back with some updates regarding work I have been doing and one new commission, in case you didn’t read the title. I sent out the updated beta of the game to applicable Patrons of mine a few days ago; and there is only one main scene set left to put in now. The 1.0 release of “Salune’s slave training” is very close; I can’t see it taking more than two months at the outside, and I hope to have it basically complete when next month’s main rewards message goes out. (When it is at 1.0 I will repost some of the previews and some info/other things about it for convenience sake; but I would think regular viewers here know what to expect by now.)

I still have a lot of text expansions to work in and balancing to do, but some of that may need more testing than I can do myself. (I am in the process of putting in the endings now.) In other news, there are also some fixes and new images as well as one new addition to the characters page, [with a few things left out for story reasons] which I have been meaning to fix for months but forgetting. (One additional new character to come for that as well, but I will wait until I actually put out chapter one of the next story arc to put her bio here.) Regardless, I will be back next week with the preview for this month’s new Patreon mini-set, perhaps more depending on assorted time factors.

Anyway, here is that new anonymous commission, featuring Tabitha and some bondage/tentacle action!

Two new polls up, and results from the old polls!

Hey again; happy fourth of July for those who celebrate it. Anyway, there are two shiny new polls up; one asks how excited you are for this game I am almost done with (:D), and the other asks if you read story sets even if they don’t have your favorite content/character in it. Please vote in those and let me know your thoughts on these things! As for the old polls, the first one was actually somewhat close; but clearly people favor the story images over the clean ones… but I still think it is good to include both. The other previous poll asked how you all felt about online image galleries; and clearly people like them, so later this month I will look into that… I know there are options for it in wordpress somewhere/somehow.

I am currently hard at work on a new scene set for the game and whatever else I can squeeze in before early next week; after which I should have a lot more time for all this once again. We will see what comes of that, but I do hope everyone is looking forward to this slave training game I have made; surprisingly little remains to be done… but I am still unsure of exactly how much extra I want to stuff in before I say it is “done”.

I should be back in a week or so with some update. Quick final note: to the person with a commission currently in progress, if you somehow read this but haven’t checked your email for some reason, please do so; I have been waiting for a response from you for a week and a half.

New DA images posted yesterday, status update.

Hey again. I am back with a small status update and the new DA stuff that I posted last night. (I was too tired to post here and Patreon last night so I waited until now.) Sorry about the delays on the DA stuff, but I had to take my car in for repairs earlier this week and lost a lot of spare time related to that.

Regardless, I am working on the new game scene sets, but I am having some technical issues involving scene texture limits with one of the remaining two; so I may have to push that back to next month. I am not totally sure of this yet, but it seems highly likely. Quick note here, I know it seems like I haven’t been doing as much for this project due to working so much on this game, but this is actually a story set worth of work each month; so it is realistically more work for me than before, and I really hope people enjoy it. It is almost done though, so the end is in sight and all that. (Another month or two I think, hard to say.)

Regarding that other thing I mentioned a post or two ago, I still haven’t heard back from the person involved with that yet; so I guess that needs more time. There are a few new commissions for me though on my DA/tumblr, so check those out if you haven’t already. I will be back in a couple days with new polls, so vote now if you haven’t yet!
