Hey Boo,
The best thing about writing is that I can do it anywhere that doesn't have a twenty something brunette constantly hooting for my attention. Despite the surprising amount of time that they tend to take up, there is also a lot of time that I get to actually write.
This week I played with the thoughts of when I'll expand my team and hire an artist to assist or take over making the visuals. Part of me knows it's a great idea because writing is where I am proficient. But I learned nothing. I have no idea what people want to be paid because the other people hiring and looking for art work are tight lipped about what they want to be paid.
Nothing is learned. Slow art forever. Black pill.
Most of the time, I start writing the devlog and then find the point. Doesn't look like that has happened this month.
Progress!
Still working away at the renders.
I've worked so long setting up scenes and working on character models along with things that I think will be in the game. As I was working on the image names and putting them in the script, I made them in chronological order.
But now the script is final, the images are planned, and I have everything in an easy to reference spreadsheet. It's just a matter of putting models in faces, squishing their faces, and lining up the camera.
Contests
I entered this into a contest on X3rr4's server. The theme is pinup. There is a spicier version on my patreon for supporters.
The VAG Bundle
There is about a week left to check out the Valentine's Adult Game Bundle. This time I checked out Love by Water, because there was a redhead in the thumbnail who looked slightly confused.

No one stopped me from doing things differently. This month's patreon rewards are Oops all Redheads.
I have special renders posted on the third Wednesday of every month for all 18+ tiers. This is going to be another thin month for pinups.
