May Patreon mini-set finally done!

7 Replies

Hi again. I managed to finally get most of the mini-set finished and it ended up being five images. The set features Zayla and her captive minotaur as Zayla comes by to get some “milk”. I spent way longer on this than I planned to, but I think it is nicer than I was expecting given all the weird issues I had making this. I plan to start construction on the main image set for the month once the weekend starts; in the mean time here is a preview of this latest mini-set.

If you want access to these mini-sets, early access to the main image sets, access to the Patreon polls like those that occurred earlier this month, and/or other things I end up making, check out my Patreon page; https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart. Any and all support helps motivate me and allows me to continue making this stuff. Rewards are sent out to the appropriate tiers after payments clear at the start of each month.

May Patreon mini-set hopefully done tomorrow…

Hey again, quick update. I had some things to do last weekend but managed to kind of finish the mini-set yesterday. The problem was that when I tried to render it earlier today, no end of problems began to surface. I had used a new environment/props for the mini-set and apparently it just did not want to work with octane at all. I have spent almost four hours today trying to fix this, but I gave up fixing the old scene after two hours and just redid the entire environment for the mini-set. However then this new scene had memory problems due to my single, limited card, so a few of the images I planned to make simply won’t work. I will still have 4-5 images for the mini-set which is what it is supposed to have, but I had wanted to do more; however it just isn’t going to happen with my limited equipment. (Maybe I can revisit this in a later mini-set later on once I get better equipment.)

I just can’t finish the last few renders/postwork tonight, I hope to finish it tomorrow. I have everything fixed so there shouldn’t be any other freaky problems/further delays unless I find some way to get the other images working. So hopefully there will be a preview of this posted sometime tomorrow. Side note, the poll is looking really nice with some rather surprising results; but there is still plenty of time for things to change.

May Patreon poll results!

Hey again. So I ended the Patreon polls for the month a day early as one was done and the other hadn’t gotten any other votes in a few days. (I also think I have time to work on some of this stuff today so I am ending it to be certain of what to do.) There were two Patreon polls this month, one for the mini-set and one for the month’s story set. The story set scenario that was chosen was “Helenya and one of the elf sisters” so that is what I will do for the main sex scene in this month’s image set. (I plan to only do one this time, with some other plot images too.) The mini-set poll was technically a tie between Zayla and Helenya so I am going with Zayla since Helenya won the other poll already. I plan to work on the mini-set over the next few days and hopefully can get that finished. If you want to get in on future patreon polls, get early access to my image sets, get access to the mini-sets and other goodies, and/or help support my work, my Patreon page is https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart.

In regard to the game work I did the past few days, I wrote the variations for one scene and worked in some music; I think it’s nice. I will see what else I have time for once the story set for the month is done.

April poll review, status update, and new big poll up!

5 Replies

Hey. I sent out the patreon rewards yesterday, if there are any problems there please email me and let me know. In regards to last months poll, some people seem fairly interested in a VN idea, which is nice as I was planning to try that once I get the current game idea finished. (Nobody voted for the low interest options so I can only assume nobody is against the idea.) Speaking of polls, a new big poll is up now and it will be up for the rest of May!

It has been a while since I have done a big poll but now seems like a good time, now that the new site is all situated. The big monster poll asks what is/are your favorite monster types? I tried to cover most things, but fair bet I missed a few; if there’s something you want to see in the poll, leave a comment! (I CAN edit polls in progress with the poll widget on this site!) As for what I am doing now, I plan to try and finish a scene or two for the current game idea this week while the patreon polls finish up. If they finish early, then I can start working on either the main set or the mini-set for the month.

The majority of work left on the game is just raw content at this point. I want to let each activity a few variations depending on various factors to keep things different. This means each individual activity in the game is it’s own mini-set, with additional writing and coding. So just the basic stuff I want to do for the game is about three full size image sets, plus additional work to implement it; so about three months of work if I wasn’t doing anything else. (This is also not counting the problems I am sure to come across with Octane and larger scenes…) I really want to get a beta of the game situated in the next couple of months, but it really just depends on how much time I can find to work on it. (Interest and/or support helps too!)

EDIT 5/6: Added beastmen, cerberi, automatons to the poll choices.

RE-EDIT: So I am going to assume that me changing the poll choices somehow reset the votes… otherwise votes just doubled in less than 12 hours which is rather impressive. Also about half of the new votes were for the new choices, which is nice.

RTL chapter three, “Uninvited Guests” complete!

2 Replies

Hi again. I finally finished RTL chapter three, and it ended up being 37 images, each with a clean and story version. There are again SIX preview images below, three clean and three with the story version. The set features a ton of stuff, notably futa and lesbian content as voted by the special poll. It also features Zayla and Salune, as well as an unlucky elven innkeeper. There are a ton of tags for this set, and I still need to go over the tags in general at some point… so there may even be more later. As I mentioned earlier, I did manage to work in most things that were on the special poll at least a little bit, so check the tags. I also worked in something for the only commenter I have on the new site so far.

I think the set is really nice, and it will go out to appropriate patrons on Patreon after payment for the month clears. (There will be an additional preview image on Patreon.) I never did figure out how long to wait before I release these sets here, I suppose it will depend on how much support I can get in the coming months. Anyway I am out for now, I will post again next week with some more info on the coming patreon polls and other stuff. I have a set plan next time to keep the set at one scene, twenty-ish images.

4/25 Update: RTL chapter three construction done, working on the rest.

I have just finished the construction portion of making the new set, and it looks great. However, I see this potentially going into at least tomorrow and possibly into Tuesday; (I will be busy on Monday, very low chance of time to work on this) not just because of the various real life crap I have had to deal with all week, but also because of me again failing to keep the set at the target twenty images. Part two as it currently stands is around 18 images, and Part one is around 16. I am almost certainly going to have to cut some things… but overall the set will likely be at least 30 images if I can keep it that low. I may get more time later today and be able to work on final renders, but I think this is unlikely. It is possible that I can finish it tomorrow but I think there is at least two days of work left to do; which is mostly due to the set being larger than it should be once again. (The real life crap didn’t help either.) Long story short, bigger sets take longer; this ended up being bigger than planned again. Oh and I did manage to work in a lot of the things from the last special poll in some capacity.

EDIT 4/26: Real life still not cooperating; so Tuesday or Wednesday.

EDIT 4/29: Final renders and clean versions of each image done; I just can’t finish the rest today. Should be able to get it done tomorrow. Set ended up being 35-ish images, (instead of 20) and they are also higher quality than I originally intended. (I figured out some new stuff in Octane to fix some things… after I had done much of it already the old way.) It all looks really nice and unless something horrible happens I plan to finish the composition/story part tomorrow. Sorry for the multiple delays, but again the set is twice as large as i had initially planned; also hopefully it looks better now than it did with these changes.

4/21 – RTL chapter 3 probably pushed back to the weekend.

Hey again. I have had all sorts of real life things to deal with the past few days, leaving me little time to work on this set. I will get it done as soon as I can, but it seems unlikely to happen before the coming weekend now. It may still get done before the weekend, but don’t expect it to be. More votes in the current poll would be great too.

RTL chapter 3 early public preview!

Hi again. Here is the early public preview for RTL chapter 3. (Mostly final but may be subject to change.) This is from the second half of what I have planned for the chapter, and it features Salune and an unfortunate elven innkeeper. As far as actual progress goes, I have part two of the set about 70% done and then I will start construction on part one. The set is looking nice and will likely get to the upper 20s as far as total images. I am still hoping to get it done by mid next week, I should have a fair bit of time over the weekend to work on it, so hopefully that will work out. Comments and feedback are welcome.

EDIT 4/19: i didn’t get as much time so far this weekend as I had hoped, (still may get some more today but it seems unlikely) but I think I can still manage to finish this set by Wednesday or Thursday. Side note: there will be two Patreon polls at the start of next month, one deciding some part of next month’s story set and another one regarding who should be featured in next month’s mini-set. (The mini-set one will be only for the mini-set tier and up, however the other one I plan to let all Patrons vote this time.) So check out my Patreon page if you want to get in on either/both of those and help support my work. https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart

RTL chapter 3 early preview on Patreon, coming here soon.

Hey. I have posted a very early preview of the next set to Patreon for all Patron tiers. I have gotten the second half of what I wanted in the set working but am having some small memory issues getting the first part working. (It really is hilarious how Octane has completely inverted my workflow/situation…) I will almost certainly figure something out, so no worries probably. A more finished preview will be posted here in the next few days, as I am trying hard to have this set done by mid next week at the absolute outside. The set is looking good so far. I could use more votes in the current poll about VN interest as well.

April special poll results, some game info, new poll up.

2 Replies

Hey again. So the special poll is over, and it seems that futa and lesbian sex won with 15 and 13 votes respectively. Pregnancy and anal came in third and fourth with nine and seven votes; and toys came fifth with five. If what you wanted did not win, don’t worry there will be other polls; some of which will be Patreon only. This time however I will work in futa and lesbian sex into this next story set, possibly some of the other top voted things as well; but again no guarantees there. My plan for this set is to hopefully finish it early this time and have some time to work on the game I am still trying to make. Before that though, there is a new poll up; it asks how interested would you be in an adult VN if I made one, with various levels of interest. (This is my next planned project; it should be a lot easier than what I am doing now.) More info after the break, this post is huge.
