Baird's Entry - Dragon (NSFW)
DragonHark! It has come time to discuss the epic creature of the dark skies and chilling landscape, the nightmarish fever dream that haunts youth and adults alike... the dragon.Fiery and huge, with a typical wingspan measured in rods, the dragon is so easy to picture, yet so hard to describe. Born of a single, mottled egg, this fearsome beast doubles in size within hours, reaching its adult height in mere days. Should ye stumble upon a dragon bairn, count yerself lucky when you both steal a glimpse of the rare spectacle and survive the encounte...

Grace Daki Style Sketch (NSFW)
Any sneak peek we'd have posted this week would be a major ending spoiler, so instead we decided to share something a little different! There's been plenty of Marion pics lately and we have many Jessie pics on the way for the next chapter, so here's a little something for all you Grace fans out there!This lounging Grace is the result of a request for a Grace dakimakura over on Watsup's Patreon. We don't have plans to make any official dakis just yet, but maybe someday down the road there will be enough demand to justify them...

Marion Finale Music Preview
Last week we went behind the scenes of our art process. Well, this week our composer CheasyDino has been kind enough to share a sneak peek of his musical process! This is an in-progress piece that Cheasy is writing for the end of Marion's story. Here's what he has to say about it:"This song I originally intended to be an independent tune heavily based on traditional "Hymns." However, seeing as this song reflects on Marion's personal evolution as well a summary of her story, I changed direction and instead decided to make...
TIMELAPSE - Sit Down Scene (NSFW, Minor Spoilers)
The big takeaway from last week's poll was that there's just as much interest in seeing what goes on behind the scenes as there is in the finished product! So this week we thought we'd make a special video about how scene assets are made for Changeling Tale.Click above to check it out! Partly thanks to the new capture function offered by Clip Studio Paint, we were able to record this timelapse to show the process Wat and I use to illustrate and collaborate:1. Initial Placeholder Asset: I mash together Google images to convey a basic...

What Kind of Sneak Peeks Do You Prefer to See?
We've shared quite a few scenes from this chapter over the course of its development (don't worry, there are still lots more yet unspoiled!), and that's got us thinking about how we present our sneak peeks. Three fifths of you have said in a past poll that it's important to you to avoid spoilers, but nine out of ten still enjoy sneak peeks at the art. So here's the question:When we share a sneak peek, would you prefer to see the art as it will appear in game, or would you rather see an earlier stage of the art (e.g. a sketch...
Cowgirl Scene (Minor Spoilers, NSFW)
With all the sex scenes in this chapter, we couldn't let the opportunity to feature this position slide! It's only fitting once Marion's become a cowgirl, after all.I'm trying to strike a balance between sharing more of these scenes and leaving plenty unspoiled for the release, which is coming up very soon. Rest assured, there are lots more steamy scenes where this came from, some of which you can catch Wat and me drawing on Picarto over the next week or two! Enjoy!

Baird's Entry - Cernunnos (NSFW)
CernunnosThe imposing horned God. The ruling leader of savage beasts and untamed lands. The only voice heard and obeyed by man and fae alike. The mythological conciliator of two worlds. Through his voice, battles were settled, the storms calmed, and wild creatures lived in harmony with civilized men.Underneath his majestic antlers, cloven hoofs, and unruly beard, the Cernunnos possesses a voice that calms even the most wicked of animals. He is the protector and guiding light. Oft depicted as a holy spirit or deity, the Cernunnos has the strengt...

Character Bio - Malcolm (Minor Spoilers)
That's right: after years of development, we've finally made an official human Malcolm sprite! His design has changed a bit since we first started drawing him, and we are still refining his look, but since he'll be stepping out from behind the camera for a special scene in this and other chapters, we wanted to create a proper sprite for him. Our writer whipped up some bio material, as well!The next Beta Build is nearly done-- Watsup is just filling in the remaining sketch assets. In the meantime I'm inking and coloring previous ...
