Trapp

A new comic in the After-Party Sluts series is in the works. I want to say it's almost finished, but... Even a simple of an idea as this is giving me such a headache right now. I feel like my time with the game, even though I have it, has been GREATLY reduced. Getting used to live in a new neighborhood in a different city is a pain in the ass, and with all the shit I'm dealing with... I just feel my creative energy being drained. I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like every day is becoming a chore now. And that's how I least want to feel about working on my shit here. So, even if I still don't have a roadmap on how to work on all my pending stuff (besides the previously announced projects, I've got shit in the backburner that's been waiting to be cooked for months!), I managed to do a small comic in honor of @demonv1's own Layla. I mean... JUST FUCKING LOOK AT HER FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Look at her and tell me to my face that she isn't one of the absolute sexiest girls in all of KE, maybe in the entire history of TK17! Also, you should probably go and vote for this image because, eh, it's just a fucking BANGER.

Imma go jump off a bridge now. So, if the new comic doesn't come out this weekend, well... It's because I actually did jump off a bridge. Hmph. Seriously though, go download Layla and vote for her picture at the Summer Vibes contest. That's my champion right there.

Absolute banger! All her pics are trophy worthy!

What any man, mortal or God, would give to be with Serena!

Exactly the point. This story has already been planned out for the most part, but I have yet to see how I can put all the pieces together for things to wind up and click in the end. Therefore, this will take a very long time. I don't see myself finishing this story until the end of 2024 at the earliest if I am optimistic.

That's the whole idea. Right now the layout is there, I just need to capture more pictures. As for the dialogue... That's going to be interesting to put it very mildly.

So. Nothing much to report as of now. I am officially resuming work on the second issue of CNC Baby. This upcoming issue won't be as sexually charged as the first one in terms of fantasies and that stuff. I want to take some time to build up some characters, including my two leads; Dani and Max. The theme of this issue will revolve around friendship. What types of friends do Dani and Max have? How are they going to advise them when they ask for it? How will they deal with their reality checks? This isn't about a shifting status quo. It would be stupidly pretentious to say there is such a thing as a status quo in this story already, when in reality, there isn't yet. The pictures I've taken so far tell me this comic will probably be double the amount of pages than the first one, and if you're expecting spice... It's a bit too early to say if there won't be any, but right now, my plan is to keep the spice on the wayside for this one. However, I just found the single greatest obstacle I think I'm ever going to find on this series, maybe in all of my comics. Appearing in this issue is @SovietTiger's own Rassía Hernandez. A model who has received hours upon hours of love, care and attention put into by him. Not to spoil much, but we've been going back and forth as to how their interaction should be, with him coming up with most of the idea behind it, that basically Rassía and Dani were childhood friends. And due to the recent loss of my friend Blake, I can confidently state: This will be the hardest thing I ever had to write for a comic. Or ever, period. I didn't really cry when I went to visit him at his old house, or even when I attended his funeral. But this... This might break me down. Still, no ETA on a release date. It might be up to another month before I can consider this one ready for reading. But when I do release it, please give it a read. This might be the most up-close and personal I will ever get on a comic.

I agree, and living in the desert, the weather starts becoming unbearable during the Spring... But to be fair, August isn't really bad. At least it's not as hot lately! Fret not, for the story hasn't changed at all. It's just a matter of getting my ass to work. And speaking of, what we talked about? That is coming on this issue! I wanted to make a case for Dani building up the courage to tell Max how she feels, so this is where it's happening! But with my current ambitions, I think a change of setting might be appropriate. But fret not, things will remain mostly unchanged! And as for Dani, yeah. I feel the same way as you. Which is why I made my latest gallery to showcase a side to her that I didn't really explore and that I want to see more of. I just want her to be a complete human being for this! Also, thank you. It's been stressful this past month, but I have hope that things will be okay in the end. But I also gotta put the work in for it!

You should watch me every time I hear something that can be used as an innuendo, it's ridiculous... And as a matter of fact, she wasn't wearing any before! The sides of the bikini bottom clipped through the dress, so I took them off originally. However, that didn't stop me from going full "wardrobe malfunction" on her... Yes! That's exactly it! Once things stop being fun, you need to break away from it for awhile. And the last thing I want is to lose any of that and fall out of love with the game. So, yeah... A break is needed.

It's no secret that I haven't had the best time currently. It's actually been quite stressful and at times, morbidly depressing. I recall when my grandmother passed away, my mother said something about her really disliking the month of August. Sorry to all Leos and Virgos born in this month... But I kinda have to agree with grandma. With all the changes in my life and the process of adapting to a new house, a new supervisor at work that is really riding my ass (no pun intended) and my current mental and emotional state, not to mention the months I've spent sleeping barely five hours a day because of the time zone difference between my location and where my job is... My fuel for creativity is running a little low. So, instead of dedicating what little time I have working on comics and stressing myself out even more than necessary with writing, drafting and planning... I'm going to take a bit of a different approach to things. I'm still going to put out comics, but right now I just want to take a breather from obsessive focus on them. So, I'll be posting some galleries instead. Something that doesn't take as much time and effort as the comics do and that is ultimately fun to make. I guess that's the keyword here: FUN. If you're a weeb/enthusiast of Anime like I am, you'll recognize this pose. If not, I don't blame you. Also, next in the Gravure Love cue is Sayaka with a very interesting story to tell! I have been working on some stuff for comics and all of that, but being so scatterbrained and absorbed by work, I would rather go into this slow and steady. I do have a few previews I want to show you without spoiling too much. First up: CNC Baby #2 is still nowhere near completion. While I do have most of the comic's structure ready (including a long-awaited appearance!), I am taking my time with the process of picture taking. And with my way of narration and how anal (whoop! There it goes again!) I am with poses and angles and making things look "alive" if that makes sense, the capturing process is taking me forever now. Between checking for light sources, figuring out if the models are set properly within the rooms and the usual things that occur with TK17, it can take me between 3-4 hours just to set up a scene. As an example, let's look below: CNC Baby will serve as a vehicle to bring out quite a few ladies I had abandoned. See if you can guess who this babe is! To me, ambience and visuals are just as important as words when telling a story. There are people that excel at visual narration, and there are several examples here within the community. But I'm a person that is constantly talking to himself, either out loud or in my own head. I have a nearly pathological need to hear a conversation in my head, even though I'll probably be the quietest person in a room most of the time. This scene is about revealing key information about Max Huerta, the male protagonist of CNC Baby. And the dichotomy between how I want to portray him and how I have done it so far (outside of the story) makes him a very difficult character to write, because when I see him, I don't know anything about his motivations. What does his dark side look like? Is there a hint of that in the way he acts in public? The idea of him having friends guiding him as a moral compass is interesting. Maybe because that's something I feel I've been lacking for a long time myself. In any case, it's always good to have an outside perspective on things. As for the rest... Well, Gravure Love is definitely happening. Maverick, I'm not so sure anymore. I've got material and the will to work on it. But I cannot focus on doing more serious stuff without taking the time to do it. And I think that's what it all comes down to in the end: I need time to be Trapp. I do know that at times, distance from anything you're giving a lot to is required. But whenever I sit here and try to work on stuff, sometimes... The inspiration doesn't come. So I think for now, all I can do is focus on doing small things at once. Not necessarily written narration, but something more visual. Hone my skills and see what I can come up with. I do have plans to bring back The Stone Sisters for a new adventure, but like I said, I want to take my time. However, time really hasn't been on my side lately, so all I can do is let things flow as they naturally should. Hopefully it doesn't take longer than I expect it to! In any case, I think it's time for a well-deserved break from comics. I'll keep on creating galleries and see what comes out, and hopefully developing ideas that could be useful for future publications. Until then, I can only hope to ride this wave and get my groove back on. I leave you for now with some more stuff I've been working on: I want to thank @PsychoCatGirl for this dress. I love how it looks, and it helped me develop something a bit more lighthearted for Dani. With my plans for the story, I definitely need more of this. And here are The Stone Sisters again. It's been a long time since I did anything with them after the World Cup gallery, so this is bound to be a lot of fun!

Well... I believe it must be comfy in the summer, then! This too. I sympathize with my comrade here. It's hard not to simp for your content or your attitude, but I believe we're doing a good work keeping that in check!

Two years later, but I'm so glad I read this. Xila is definitely there, in all of us. Thank you Euphie!!

You're a fucking champ, girl! It's so good to see you picking up the mantle!

Also, before I forget, where can one get such a sexy suit??

Nice! You don't actually need to do much with her, just change the skin to the one from the Dragon Model linked and that's it! I'm honored you included her!

Sexiest Super Girl ever! Wonder when she'll don the Power Girl suit!

Your Juri is absolutely breathtaking!

Mommy Yes Mommy

I recognize Layla, but who is the other one??

Even with the guns, I'd love to have her bouncing on top of me!

She thicc in all the right places!

Ngl, I will always have a bias for Zero Suit Samus

It's official: I have a thing for witches now.

Time to put my church clothes on!
