Digital Commission #14: Samantha and Flin scrambling to put their clothes on

And then Flin hustles out of there and everything's okay. Phew!

I'm gonna delete the last two poll posts and just summarize everything here (because if I get into a habit of doing this, I don't want my post history clogged with polls that don't matter anymore). So for posterity:

Plans for the Sound Update

Alright, so let's talk about the sound update! Love, Lust, and Rock 'n Roll revolves around music as a core part of its plot and has a goddamn genre of music in its title, yet the game is silent as the grave.

I've prioritized other things, but the time has finally come.

Music

Music is a huge deal to me. I ...

2nd base makeout with Julie except without clothes

Because I felt like it, okay?

Version 1.4.7, "The Samantha Update," Released!

I know what you're thinking. "Woah Flin, slow down, it's only been 10 short months since your last update, take a breather!" But you can't keep this tiger caged, man.

Julie's Section Complete

That's right, Julie's entire story event in the upcoming update is now done!

And yes, this means that the final rock band tour event, the crux of this next update, is finished. What remains to be done?

Well, as I've said, I'd like to give Amy just a bit more love. I don't expect this to take much time. On...

Julie, 1st and 2nd base

Recycled some of the work from doing the same thing with Samantha/Kelly.

Because there's never enough boob grabs.

Kelly collapsed on Flin

Recycled from a Julie image, but I didn't end up using this yet. It doesn't really slot into the newest Kelly event, so if I'm gonna include it I'd need to add it to an earlier scene. The only one that fits is the band tour 3-day sequence, which is pretty jam-packed as it is. So it's probably better to save this for a later e...

Holding hands with Julie

Don't worry, the uncensored version will be available in-game.

Kelly Section Complete!

The above two images are recycled from Samantha imagery, but currently I've decided not to use either of them. Sometimes I try it out, and realize the hair was doing more than I expected to make the shot look good.

I still like these shots, though. Might use them in the future, just not in the next update.

Makin' out and...a little more

Aww, how sweet ~❤

Recycled from a Samantha image (related to the "Never Enough Boob Grabs" post), but readjusted a bit because Kelly's shorter and has a different shirt. More work than I expected but not too bad.

Kelly's hair is peculiar to me sometimes. At certain angles, if I don't arrange it right, it'll almo...

Samantha's Piece of the Event Complete!

-

No, the update is not ready yet.

BUT, I've officially finished writing everything to do with Samantha's part of the upcoming story event. This includes all imagery, animations, dialogue, scripting, etc.

Samantha, and all of her content for LLRR, is complete.*

This is a b...

Julie Couch Scene Revamp, Part 3/3

And thus, our story culminates in some steamy, illicit activities in the dark, while Flin's girlfriend and Julie's husband sleep in their respective rooms just one floor above them.

Julie Couch Scene Revamp, Part 2/3

Continuing from the last post, it's time for my favorite part of the Julie couch scene.

Fun fact: When I originally made this little sequence, I was inspired by the intro to "Enter Sandman," by Metallica.
Really, just the first minute of the song. Try slowly stepping through these images while listen...

Julie Couch Scene Revamp, Part 1/3

This upcoming update isn't just about adding a new story event. A LOT of imagery has been polished or revamped. Most notable among these, in my opinion, is Julie's entire couch sequence.

I think it's easy to look at the above images and wonder what's even different about them. The couch scene was fine, right?

Well...

Nighttime Endeavors

I'm running into a kind of funny problem, so I thought I could share another Samantha image while I describe it.

I once shared a tutorial on how I make nighttime images. Basically, I add a layer of transparent black above the...

Blender/GIMP Tutorial: How to make a (seamless) GIF

Been a hot second since I did a tutorial, but I've been wanting to share this technique for a while now. It took time to work out all the steps, and now it's my standard workflow for all animations I export.

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to turn your Blender animation into a seamlessly looping GIF using GIMP.
C...

Samantha Swimsuit

Decided to use the "Kelly in a Bikini" commission as a starting point to make a fun little doodle of Samantha for the end of the month. I don't usually do the faint "S-shaped" cleavage thing (where the cleavage is curving one way and then sorta curves the other way), but it just kind of happened here and I like it.

This...

Flin x Kelly (animation)

Using the "butt jiggling" animation from the last post as a starting point, I made this new animation (for both Kelly and Samantha). As I've said, the two will recycle a lot of work from each other, which will really help me square away Kelly's content once I'm done with the Samantha sequence I'm working on.

Just as tha...

Thrusting, butt jiggling (animation)

Definitely one or two new milestones achieved here! Just because I don't show genitalia doesn't mean I'm not interested in depicting a good 'ol pelvic thrust or butt jiggle.

Building off the boob jiggling animation with Kelly, I tried adding the "lower half" of what's going on to the shot. I've tried and failed to do th...

My body is ready...

I tried adding some faint "anime action lines" to the second image:

I don't dislike them, but I dunno. Kinda like the original more.

Still workshopping the concept in general. Might mess with the shading and such.

Never enough boob grabs

They're a pain in the ass, but there are never enough.

This one turned out pretty good in my opinion, and it's thanks to my latest in "boob grab technology" 😅.

First, a brief history of the techniques I tried:
To start, I tried morphing the breast on the original 3D model to billow out between the fingers. 2022-07-07 03:59:48 +0000 UTC View Post

Music Teaser

ROCK MUSIC

BECAUSE FUCK YEAH

You know, fuck it, I'll share some music! Composed by yours truly.

There won't be any sound in the next update, but why not tease a little rock music before the month ends?
I've already successfully tested splitting it up into 4 separate par...

"Did you hear something?"

"It's fine, let's keep going..."

Blurry Julie Strip

I don't think I ever shared this little "doodle." There's some unpolished stuff, like Julie's ponytail floating in the third shot, but I really liked the results for how relatively simple they were to make.
The first shot is seen in the background of an image I made a while back, with the angel/devil stuff:

Samantha Progress

Just wanted to share some good news! I know I haven't shared any posts yet this month, but I actually got a LOT done in terms of writing the story! However, that doesn't leave me with the best content for Patreon posts, so I'm looking to share more this week as I get back into making imagery.

I basically got all of the ...

Kelly from Behind

Just wanted to fit one last post in since I was rather inactive this month. And look at that, it's a "non-front-to-front" position!

I made a commission a little while ago that was this same position with Kelly, which I recently polished up a bit more, and I decided I wanted another angle to go with it.
This kind of s...

Kelly, lotus position, bra, kissing (animation)

I've only ever made one animation prior to now that involved kissing, and it was a silhouette one (not implemented in LLRR, but shared in a much earlier post).

This is because getting two characters' lips to press together in a satisfying shape is a PAIN IN THE ASS. But animating that shit? Well...not as awful ...

New Samantha Sprites

"New" is a little silly since she's not even in the game yet, but the tank top design I shared a while back just wasn't quite doing it for me. I still like those sprites, but I wanted to try something else. Here's a side-by-side:

Status Update

Hey everyone! I know things have been slow, but I wanted to share my current progress so far. The above image has nothing to do with anything, just a variant I didn't share before 😊

Basically, as of an hour ago, Amy's segment in the next update is now finished! As usual, there's a mix of old imagery,...

MOAR AMY

You may recognize all three of these shots, as they take from source imagery I've already shared, but a good amount of polish has been applied to make them their own thing that I can use in the next update.

I'm still trying to get away with mostly black backgrounds for Amy's scenes, but I'll admit that some shots, like ...
