My "Nothing but Pride Flags" continues with updated models from "Hopepunk City" (now on Steam) wearing Aromantic, Bisexual, and Asexual pride flags respectively. Being "Aro" myself, I spent some time in the game correcting myths about all 3 of these misunderstood orientations.

Nothing but Pride Flags #3. From my long term project “Dating in a World on Fire” involves these two characters. On the left is a trans non binary character named Alex. On the right is the main character named Relay, partially covered by the pansexual flag. #3dart #visualnovel #pride

I’m celebrating Pride Month with a return of “Nothing But Pride Flags” where I show Daz Studio versions of my characters draping pride flags. These are new versions of Rebecca with the Lesbian Pride flag, and Evan with the Gay Pride flag.

I don't care what they say, I'm celebrating Pride Month with a return of "Nothing But Pride Flags" where I show Daz Studio versions of my characters draping pride flags. This is a new version of Maya draped in the Progress Pride Flag.

My Picture of the week is a couple walking down a London street. This month I'm sketching future projects and this is an idea I'm working on.

Behind on my pictures, I sit in front of my computer, and turn on my iPad to watch something while I work. Ran out of YT vids, so I put on P+ and my list has "Better Man" so I press play. It's a fucking work of art. Greatest biopic of someone I barely know. The pics I made while watching are 👍

Just to prove I'm a real #visualnovel maker I have an opening scene demo for a game I hope to release next year. It's a dating sim set in a possible dystopian future. arianeb.itch.io/dating-in-a-...

A future Visual novel starring gen 9 Rachel? For the month of May, I’m thinking about Future Visual Novels to make. Thinking of a Rachel game, maybe.

Updated Ariane in Paradise with the new Rachel model on Steam, Itch, and my website. #visualnovel

My Picture of the Week post. Been playing with new Gen9 models at #daz3d and I plan to use these two in a #visualnovel soon.

Doing a series of underwater renders and realizing I left the subjects mouth open the whole time.

A new pic from a minor graphical update for "Ariane in Paradise". I'll probably be updating the game next month which is the 1 year anniversary of it's release on Steam. #visualnovel #3dart

When I made new versions of Ariane and Rachel for "Ariane in Paradise", Ariane looked young, and Rachel looked older. So I recently reworked Rachel to look younger and cuter like Ariane. #visualnovel #3dart

I love when I hear about a game I want to play, only to find I bought it before on sale and it's already in my library.

For the month of April, I'm experimenting again. In Daz Studio there are 2 groups of characters Genesis 8.1 and Genesis 9. Most of my work has been in 8.1, and I'm experimenting with Genesis 9 models. These are Mira and CJ. #3dart

@heardislandgov.bsky.social Love clever parody accounts!

Been releasing screens from my #visualnovel Hopepunk City during March, and we're at the end of the month, so a pic of the main cast is in order. House meeting and hot tea break due to a coffee shortage. arianeb.com/hopepunk-city/

My Pic of the Week, doing scenes from "Hopepunk City" that is now on sale on Steam. While previous shots were philosophical moments, here's a naked fun one. Ariane getting wine from the kitchen while she does laundry. #visualnovel #3dart

Stand up routing on what it takes to survive a recession. Good advice, and also funny. youtu.be/EovJTGEokxc

Three of my games, Date Ariane Remastered, Something's In The Air Redux, and Ariane in Paradise are all 20% off until March 20th. Hopepunk City currently is not because it is too new. (Steam rules) #visualnovel #steam #steamspringsale

Picture of the Week From Hopepunk City: Ideology us nothing more than a set of rules to separate the “winners” and the “losers”. People prefer the ideology that makes themselves into winners. #visualnovel #3dart

Tomorrow is Pi Day, and the three spheres all line up for a Pi Day Eclipse!

My #visualnovel Hopepunk City got a shout out in the latest Sex Positive Gaming new Steam Games video www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMKQ...

For the month of March, my Pictures of the Week will come from Hopepunk City as I put that game on Steam. This is from the first scene of the game as you and two other refugees are trying to get into the district.

Not been in a social media mood lately. Thinking of taking a break from it for a while. Thinking a "spring cleaning" of the mind.
