[Announcement] Tasty Temptation - Part 2
🕑 Added 2025-01-29 15:58:07 +0000 UTCSince most of you have probably already figured out that there are always four other comics between the release of a specific series, it won’t come as a surprise to most of you that next week marks the release of Tasty Temptation – Part 2.
Will Elijah stop Mia from giving in to her newly discovered urges, or will he even tempt her to surrender to them even more recklessly?
Ah, who am I kidding here? I think we all already know the answer to that one, haha.
If all goes well, I should have the comic finished by early next week. ^^
Genie's Gift - Part 2
But first, as tradition demands, let’s talk about the second part of Genie’s Gift.
I know I already mentioned this last time, but the higher resolution still feels a bit unfamiliar to me, so I'd almost still classify it as a new feature. This time, I used a slightly different upscaling technique in the hopes that it would speed things up a bit and save my GPU some work. It actually was (somewhat) faster, but I have the feeling that this method makes the images look a bit more washed out or kind of “ironed out”, if you get what I mean. So despite the time savings, I’ll probably go back to my original method for the next comic — the same one I used for Busty Beach Babes.
One technique I tried in this comic that — unlike the new upscaling method — will definitely also be used in future comics improves consistency across multiple images, especially in the background. You can see the results of my tests on pages 10-12. I’m not completely satisfied with it yet: I definitely want the character to move a bit between images, because I think it would feel a bit sterile if only the belly got bigger without anything else changing in the picture, but there are a few variations that are too rough, especially with the butt in this case. So there's definitely room for improvement as I see it. But otherwise, I’m very happy with it. My main focus in this test was the consistent background anyway, and I think I did a pretty good job with that in this sequence.
Because of the general setting of the comic, I also ran into a few challenges again that already popped up in part one: mainly the Genie and Alina’s blue hair. The Genie is pretty self-explanatory. A man with blue skin… yeah, that's probably pretty rare in the training data, so the AI just doesn’t really know what to do with it. As for the blue hair… it’s insanely difficult to get a consistent shade of blue. The AI keeps fluctuating between dark blue, light blue, a somewhat cyan tint, etc. I think I managed to do a little bit better consistency-wise compared to Part one (where there were some really drastic changes if you paid attention), since I did some additional color corrections in Photoshop this time but I’m still not completely happy with it. I’ll definitely have to play around with some new techniques in the future.
And then there are the last five pages: my personal highlight of this comic and, at the same time, the thing that nearly cost me my sanity haha. I already knew when writing the script that the setup I wanted to portray on these pages would be a challenge, but I didn’t expect it to be this difficult. I went through countless prompt variations and generated hundreds, if not thousands, of images until I finally got a result I was somewhat satisfied with. I’d say about 75% of the total time I spent on this comic went solely into these last few pages. (My original script actually planned for even more men to be involved in this scene, but after a few attempts, I had to reluctantly accept that this was pretty much an impossible undertaking. After several hours of failure, I had to settle for “only” two men.) But yeah, looking at the final result I think it was definitely worth the effort, and I learned a lot while working on this scene — stuff I’ll surely be able to use in future comics as well.
Alright, but that’s it for today! We’ll catch up again when Part 2 of Tasty Temptation drops early next week.
Until then, take care!
