[Announcement] Bovine Breakout - Part 1

Hi everyone!

Now that Busty Beach Babes, the remake of my very first comic Breast Day at the Beach, is finished, it's time for a new series! And what better way to fill that slot than with... another remake of a (very) old comic of mine! This time, it's Bovine Bustout - my very first "longer" comic, meaning it was a two-parter (well, "longer" by the standards of back then haha. These days, the images from both parts combined wouldn't even be enough to fill a single part).

In this comic, we meet Emily, an agent of the FAD (the Federal Agency for Drugs - absolutely not modeled after any real-life agency whose name I slightly changed to avoid legal issues, since those folks are pretty picky when it comes to the use of their name). She's tasked with inspecting the milk from a new farm, "Moo-lky Meadows", after it was flagged for elevated hormone levels.

What happens next... well, I guess you could just spoil yourself by reading the original, Bovine Bustout. But be warned: that comic hasn't exactly aged well, haha. So maybe it's better if you just wait until this version is done ^^

Speaking of which - if all goes well, the comic should be finished by mid-to-late next week!

Lust & Lore - Part 4

Before I share my thoughts on the 4th and final part of Lust & Lore, let's start with a small technical update: This morning I made some changes to my website's server - it should now load significantly faster for all of you, especially if you're outside of Europe. That's because the website is now being served from multiple locations worldwide instead of just the main server in Europe.
However, I still see some occasional errors in the logs that I can't fully make sense of yet. So I'd really appreciate it if you could take a quick look at my website and see if everything is working as usual for you - both logged in and logged out. If anything seems off (like an image not loading, or the site looking weird), please let me know so I can iron out these kinks before Bovine Breakout drops! >> https://www.boobacious.be/ <<

Alright, now that that's out of the way (though unfortunately, probably not for me cry - those log errors are really stressing me out), let's talk about Part 4 of Lust & Lore!

Man, what a wild finale this comic turned out to be - a real firework show of all kinds of fetishes: breast expansion, ass expansion, belly expansion, futanari, giantess... it got pretty wild, haha. I know that with such a wide range, there's always a chance that not everything will appeal to everyone - and don't worry, my future comics will be more focused again, usually around breast, ass, and belly expansion. But for this comic, it just made sense to go all out for the grand finale ^^
And from the comments I've seen, it looks like you all enjoyed the ride!

As for the techniques I've used - I actually don't have too much to say. A lot of what you've seen here are things I've talked about before - just in a slightly more polished form.

The text effects (i.e., the stylized dialogue and "sound effects") worked especially well again, I think. I've started using them more in the growth sequences too, and I think they fit in really nicely (though not on every page, so right now it's still a bit of a mix between my classic grooow* texts and the new ones - but I kind of like that too, it has its own charm).
I also played around with the comic book panels a bit: tried some wilder layouts and tilted the frames more often so everything isn't so straight and boxy anymore, which makes the pages feel a bit more organic and dynamic (at least, I think so haha).

Likewise, I've had a lot of fun with the giantess transformations, which - come to think of it - I've never really done before. There's one on page 12 where - okay, wanna hear a secret? I totally forgot to give the new character from Part 4 a name. She's not mentioned by name in the entire comic, nor in the description. But I’m getting to a point where I can’t really keep dodging it anymore haha. So let's just call her Hannah for now, alright?
So anyway, Hannah grows larger, which I visualized by showing several transparent versions of her behind her main form. The counterpart to that is on page 20, where Chloé grows, but this time I went with a single, increasingly larger Chloé in front of the same background. I'm still not sure which version I like more - both have their charm. Version 2 might still need a little polishing, doesn't quite feel perfect yet... but yeah, in the end I think it was a good call to include both, just to keep things fresh ^^

And finally, a quick meta comment again: I'm really sorry you had to wait so long for this comic! The time between the last release and this part of Lust & Lore was probably the longest gap I've had between comics. Lately, I've been really struggling to keep up my usual release rhythm.
The comics keep getting longer (many are over 20 pages now) and much more complex. I pay more and more attention to consistency in every image, I edit basically every single picture extensively now, invest more time in illustrating the pages, learning new techniques, etc. etc.
Back when I started (like, really at the beginning - at the Bovine Bustout era haha), I could basically throw together a comic in a single day (and yes, they were definitely thrown together back then haha). But now, even small, individual steps often take several days :/
As you know, I'm not doing this full-time - it's "just" a side gig alongside my studies. But I'm putting in nearly full-time hours into it anyway. All in all, between uni and comics, I easily hit 60-70 hours of work per week - depending on how much is going on at uni. Even though I absolutely love making these comics, I might need to ease up a little to avoid burning out completely. I'll still try to stick to the usual release schedule as best I can - but I hope you won't be mad if a comic ever takes an extra day or two.

But alright, that's it from me for today. Time to get back to working on Bovine Breakout!
We'll catch up again next week for its release! And again: please take a moment to check if my website works properly for you so everything goes smoothly on release day!

Until then, take care!
