Aaaaaaah here it is...a new Fallen Star update, you can stop F5'ing ;-P
As usually, a little bit of stat to start with ^^
So far, 168 pages have been rendered for a little bit more than 40% of the total chapter.
I'm so excited working on this one, so much to fit, a few really good pictures as well.
I know I'm not doing it enough, but I'd like to take the time to thank all the people supporting me and my work through donations. Some of you have been very generous this month and deserve some praise.
Know that all the money is re-injected in the creation of my comics, and allow me to keep buying and creating new content. This is all for you guys ;-)
Other news, I've been contacted lately by a japanese company which would like to publish my work on the japanese market. Dunno how it might end up, but we never know, it at least means my works may interest other culture...sort of ^^
And to close this post, I'll finish by saying that I'm finally over with January (and mid Feb ^^)
and things should start to settle down a little bit at work, which would give me more time to work on my projects hopefully. No more coming back after 23 >_< ...I hope
Here we are, that's the end of my diatribes, so enjoy the selection of pics
And as far as I'm concerned, now I can go back working on Saga's final form ;-P

| first showdown, who will be the winner ?! |
I like your pictures of the update 40%, Shinra. And i am glad that your comics will arrive to the country of the Sun (like Japan), good luck there.
ReplyDeleteLooks promising as ever.
ReplyDeleteI back up whoever said that the girl on pic 6 was cute.
The final showdown I think looks great also.
However the Devil's concubines are just meh for me. He doesn't have any of the most interessant characters as his (Starlight, Lumiel, Saga...)
Also I saw the point of showing us Carla corrupting her family in her home in the previous chapter. It shows the consequences of the corruption of people and how it affects the rest of the world. But the whole sex scene with the mother in Hell took too much place in the overall story and made me lose all respect to the Devil as a villain when he lost Starlight so stupidly.
Yeah I like Carla's look with the green/envy theme (although I prefer her costume in chapter 6. Looked more like an evil artifact than the BDSM outfit of now). But the whole thing in chapter 7 felt a bit silly.
DeletePlus, not a fan of piercings
Concerning the villain (or hero in the case of a corruption comic), I'm having some trouble knowing who is. And that's a turn off. The corruption of Saga and Lumiel were started by the Devil's order but were hijacked by Arachnae so I feel a bit cheated.
Hugh, I realize we're not very nice to only criticize when Shinra worked so hard to deliver us a teaser so I'll just say it looks really great and I'll be happy no matter how you decide the comic to be in the end.
I think you are looking a bit deeper in the story of some 18+ comic. And it just feels nice to have some twists like that.
DeleteI hope that Lumiel will be the bitch that will kill Arachnae because ... reasons.
That's true that those are 18+ comics which "should" focus more on money scenes than the rest, but I actually prefer having a good story behind.
DeleteIMHO, it makes it way more interesting and that's also the reason why I started creating those comics.
So don't worry. I don't get offended when people actually have remarks on the story ^^
Whereas Carla and her family corruption were my most favorite part of Ch. 7. Oh, and I love the piercings, as well. And I loved loved loved the whole sex scene with the mother in hell. Great stuff, Shinra-kun.
DeleteIf the comics start selling in Japan will we have to buy them too?
ReplyDeleteThe first 7 chapters of Fallen Star were free, there's only 4 more to go...
DeleteI'm not gonna ask you now guys to pay for it.
Fallen Star has never meant to be sold and will remain free till its last chapter.
Thank you Shinra !
ReplyDeleteI am the one who asked for more of the vestale. It's great she appears more in the comic !
I like the corruption by a male demon and a bit of lesbianism too and when the corrupted are somehow "attached" to their corruptor afterward but I trust you completely for the scene !
Was the second person Justine? At the picture 9 in your 30% Update ?
ReplyDeleteSaga is now in Hell! That means ist was the dark queen in 20% Update on p.5!
It all looks very great !
ReplyDeleteTethys bound in a pentagram in Hell ? A pretty good prospect.
Mariah ? The vestales under attack ? All good.
Just an idea: Don't you think Mariah would look better with fuller and longer hair ? And maybe eyes a different color from the rest of the body ? And finally a tail with an arrow at the end (more demonic) ?
Mariah has already evolve a lot, and I think it would be unfair to spend less time on other character.
DeleteThey all need some time under the projectors ^^
I hope I will be able to see that Saga final form in the next update. :P he-he
ReplyDeleteto be totally transparent, I think her final form should happen at more or less 60 to 70% of the chapter story-wise.
DeleteSo it's very unlikely to appear in next update, Sorry >_<
What is that shadow in Picture 9 ?
ReplyDeleteOver the finger shadow of Justine on the wall??
I think there is something in the glass box this is not a shadow!
DeleteThis is definitely not a shadow ^^
DeleteThe Fallen Star (Wars), Chapter 8, Hell Strikes Back. ; )
ReplyDeleteNice to see a focus on Hell's faction and plans. I was wondering where the hell the Devil went ! (pun intended)
Oh my, look who is here!
DeleteIf there is a story behind this, would you be willing to discuss this in emails?
That's my power of persuasion Mp or maybe is it mind control...gnark gnark gnark
Delete(To mpgrey)
DeleteHi,
Yeah I wrote a mail to Shinra and I thought you knew I was back.
I'd have no problem discussing "my return" in emails, so...send away !
Something tells me Justine might win the first showdown ^^
ReplyDeleteSomething's telling me Justine is not there only for the show ;-P
DeleteHey shinra,
ReplyDeleteI got two questions bout the series.
1. Are the powers of darkness powered by negative emotions? Because starlight as queen of hell keeps being angry at how god abandoned her. That seems to keep her... well dark. Also how does her hairstyle change? Not the blond to black part the whole style of it in chapters 5 and 7.
2. These r actually personal questions to u
a. The characters of Aki from the ninja one and saga and Maria from the fallen star one Are my favorites and the hottest. Which ones are yours?
b. What do u like so much bout corruption/mind control stories?
looking great!!! will chapter 8 be the final one? as much as i like TFS i thnk it might be good to end it here on a high note. so many cg comics go on for like 18 chapters and they just keep throwing in random new plot crap that isnt needed
ReplyDeletethankfully youve not done taht but i hope for a kickass ending to TFS and then more from the other stories you're doing!
No this chapter won't be the last one, fortunately or unfortunately, that's up to you :-P
DeleteOn the other hand, I know exactly that the serie will count 11 chapters, not 18 ^^
The story has been written a long time ago, and I won't add new crappy fillers/plot just for the sake of extending the serie.
As for the final ending, all I can say is that the saga will progressively intensify till the very last chapter. It's gonna be very hard to please everybody, and I'm already preparing myself to face critics and sharp objects flying in my direction.
Creating a good ending must be one of the thoughest thing to do as a writter >_<
There's an after Fallen Star, at least, I hope so :-p
Hi Shinra,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, excuse my bad english ( Belgian eat fries and speak french, not english like you've got warm potato in mouth ).
You already made 168 pages for 40 percent of this chapter, so among 200 for the 50% and more than 400 when the chapter 8 will be finished.
Did you release these 400p comic in one part or release it on two parts?
Thanks for your work and apologies if I'm too impatient but I try to improve my poor english in order to follow your TFS adventures ( I will maybe become a perfect bilingual if you release it in one part xD )
Hi Domi,
DeleteAre you eating fries at "place du Perron" in Liege, Ahahahah
No worries dude, as most of you will have noticed, english is not my mother tongue neither, but I definitely try to get better as well.
I'm a bloody stubborn person, and my issue is that I have envisioned each chapter and the way they're supposed to end. It's hard to explain, but it kinda disheartening for me to change this. I always feel like the chapter's gonna be crap, like something's missing. So as far as the subject goes, I'm not splitting the chapter...for now
will we also see in the next one the Oracle and Zell?
ReplyDeleteor is their part more in the next comic?
mmmh Zell and the Oracle will appear in this chapter but definitely won't be the major players.
DeleteIf they appear in an update, I would rather go for the 60% update
will we see lisa in the next one and will you remaking her more and more into the image of Kimy (Lilith)?
ReplyDeleteLisa will be there but more as an accesoire than anything else
Deletewill she have have a important part in the future?
Deleteshe has a role to play.
DeleteImportant...I will let you be the judge
I saw what you did by the way, making her a "pet" like Lilith said.
DeleteIs she some kind of hell beast now ?
That would be so cool that her bite transform normal people into beasts like her !
(Lisa)
DeleteShe's a hell hound now ^^ ahahah
DeleteFor myself I really want to see the Devil in action !
ReplyDeleteFavorite corruption/sex scene for me was Starlight's in Chapter 3.
As from this chapter, the Devil will be back in action and will keep having more and more time under the spotlights with the chapters to come ;-)
DeleteShinra seeing that Tethys picture I remembered the one you gave us for Christmas. Please don't do this to me! Please! I don't want her to look like that!
ReplyDeleteAhah you haven't seen anything O_O
DeleteHard to say if, first, it was Tethys, and secondly, what this new demon will look like ;-)
please -.-
DeleteAll those chains gave me the idea of a BDSM dominatrix.
Will you be ready with the comic in April?
Don't worry Shinra already told us she won't be a Dominatrix.
DeleteI just want something unique about her too.
DeleteI can just speculate at this point but seeing as she cares about Saga that much, she will end up betrayed and broken on the battlefield we saw in the earlier updates. Somebody from hell will come and pick her up and corrupt her there. I am relieved that she won't end up a monster like Saga and that if this is really true she will be able to avenge herself in the upcoming hell vs. heaven battle.
Tethys will definitely have a "unique" treatment.
DeleteIMHO and the way I envisioned it, Tethys's ordeal should be one of the best.
Now it wll be up to each one of you to like it...or not >_<
the merry christmas model was that a girl of TFS ( p.1)?
ReplyDeletewhat was her name?
Deleteif you're talking about the woman dressed as santa then no, she's not a girl from TFS
DeleteShinra, I have to ask. How come the Mother Superior tag (and clothing) is quickly disappearing? In my opinion that was the biggest draw for Mariah...
ReplyDeleteAlso do you respond to emails on plot discussion? If so how do we get a hold of you?
Nah she's still being called mother superior, at least in this chapter ^^
DeleteYes I usually do.
This blog is linked to a gmail account, flick me an email.
Will there be a second character that evolves as much as Mariah? She was a pure nun that looked like Jessica Alba and look her now. I really wouldn't mind a second character that goes throw that metamorphosis, it was interesting and fun to watch.
ReplyDeleteIn a certain way, yes.
DeleteMariah was so far, one of my favorite TF, and I wanted to do the same kind of metamorphosis on another character.
Now I always try to use different aspect of TF, as I don't want to create the same effect twice, so it will be different than what Mariah went through.
Hey Shinra, when you say "a final form" what do you mean?
ReplyDeleteWill Saga get corrupted a bit more or you will simply change the way she looks? I know you dont like to spoil the story but you can hint towards it.
Saga is one of my favorite character and she needs some power up for the rest of the story, so she will have to evolve a bit more ;-P
DeleteLooking forward to it.
DeletePersonal favourite rating:
Saga
Letho
Tethys
Special shotout for KImy but she is no more.
I would not be so sure about that ^^
DeleteConcerning Saga I like that she still looks like herself but the pink hair didn't fit in to my opinion.
DeleteMy only problem was the outfit.
DeleteSo Kimy is still there uh ?
DeleteThe only problem I had with her corruption is that, after all the temptation and effort put into her moral change, it was more a possession than anything else.
I'd really prefer a "merging" of the two personnalities. The same person but an avatar of the notions she's been infused with (with Lilith I guess that's lust ?)
Hi Shinra! I'm japanese fan.
ReplyDeleteIf your comic is put on the market in Japan, I will buy it!
In that case, is it translated into Japanese?
Each your work is very interesting and wonderful! I am enjoying with usual.
I am also impatient for the next episode! :)
Hello Shinra !
ReplyDeleteThe teaser pictures look good ! So Justine is back ? Any other dark nun will show up ?
I see there was a talk to maybe do some impregnation in your comics so I wondered if you still considered it ? Is there anyone else who like the theme ? If not don't worry about it.
1+ for the impregnation theme
Delete+2
DeleteThere was a good talk about impregnation in the comments of the FS section.
God I love impregnation so much ! If it could be done...
DeleteFor one of the angel to become the wife of one of the demons and carrying his children would be the awesomest thing and the best corruption I could hope for.
(+3)
Thanks for the teaser, Shinra!
ReplyDeleteTethys is by far my favorite character of TFS, it's the girl I find the most beautiful, hot and cute. I expect so much of her corruption and corrupted form and hope I will not be disappointed! It would be really great to see a huge gap between her naive personnality and innocent face and the cruelty, the desire for lust and hotness of her final corrupted form. If she's to become a demon and not a monster, you have to make a scene with her and Starlight! :)
Anyway, thanks so much and I hope her "unique" treatment will be worth the wait!
I like when they keep part of their personnality.
DeleteTwisted of course, but still important relationships and things they care about stay the same...except they might see it from a different point of view Example: guy has cute sex-less romance with girl but when corrupted goes and they have primal sex that corrupts the girl.
it looks like that this time you will Break Tethys! It will take time to do it. will you give her some medicine like by (Mother Superior)?
ReplyDeleteNo I don't think so
Deleteare you Breaking Tethys ?
ReplyDeleteC'mon guys, teaser is all Shinra is gonna give us and that's alright I wouldn't want to know everything that will happen in the chapter ^^
DeleteTethys now become one of new nine Princes of hell?
ReplyDeleteI think, that she is really pissed of, that Saga gave her to the Devil or that Saga was flying away and not helping her!
Was this really a good Idea of Saga ?? :)
Has the devil her or has she the new Evil Queen?
by the next update can we see perhaps Emika ?
ReplyDeletethat's very likely, yes ;-)
Deleteis Zell and the oracle important for this story?
ReplyDeletethe next chapter
Deletethey will have a lot less time under the spotlights than in the previous chapter. Now it does not mean thy are not important for the rest of the stories ;-)
DeleteAny update on the creation of a bio page?
ReplyDeleteIt's really starting to become difficult to remember who was who before they went to hell. Just something short, a basic list with before pic/name/occupation/after pic, would be nice.
To be honest, it has always been in my plan to create some kind of detail card for each character but I'm gonna be upfront with you, I really don't have the time to do so for the moment.
DeleteStill, I had an idea, where you guys, could do it for me ^^
This is a community, we help each other Cumbayaaaa ahahaa
I'll post something soon to see who's interested and give you guys directions
Can I keep my hopes high for a character using a sidecut haircut like the one in your Mask comics?
ReplyDeleteI find it really sexy. ;/
sidecut ? which one are you talking about?
DeleteThe hairstyle of the girl that got corrrupted. Half of you hair shaved. Sorry for my english. o/////////o
DeleteI don't like it. Why get rid of beautiful hair ?
DeleteNot a fan either (I like to see beautiful evil women in TFS with impossibly good hair and looks not really punk hairstyles) but still it's a matter of opinion more than anything else
DeleteMore than that, I don't think it made much sense in Legion Fall of the Mask: some part got longer and some part got to fall off ?
If done again the character should appear to have shaven herself/himself offscreen, otherwise I can't understand how a transformation could be so selective.
Yeah,
Nitpicking that's what I do.
I disagree, to my mind what makes the transformation/corruption even hotter and interesting to watch is when the girl changes physically, not to the point when you can barely recognize her of course, but when the hair, eyes colour is slightly different as well as the body (bigger boobs, smaller boobs?, tail appearing like Maria which makes her look more demonic), it's nice. Just my opinion though ^^
DeleteI totally agree with you all the changes you mentionned I love them but like you said I need to see the changes taking place and I have no idea what happened with the hair on this one. It didn't got longer nor did it go shorter, so I guess...both ? Why ? If her hair had gotten longer and she had decided to cut it after that would make more sense. (You don't have to show it you can just make her appear later after the first transformation with the hair cut).
DeleteWas that the last picture of Tethys in your updates?
ReplyDeleteto give us not to much of her and what will happen with her !
ps. % ??
why was tethys coming back to the city and to the monster to have sex them? Was she infected in the first time by them? but now the Hell has catch her!
ReplyDeletegood thinking:)
Deletehow many pictures and pages have you now?
ReplyDeleteA lot...but not enought to make a chapter out of it >_<
Deleteis Tethys in this one also make acting like lilith in comic 5. or is she more making in the next one ?
ReplyDeleteTethys has a major in this chapter 8, yes
Deletehow many people are on that Island ?
ReplyDeleteI see a man in picture 7 and it looks like, that also man live on that Island, or is it only one man?
is that think,(p.9) in the glass box important?
I can't tell you accurately how many people live on the island but, Yes the man on the picture is from Moyira Island
Deleteif saga becoming a update is also lumiel becoming one in her future?
ReplyDeleteshe may evolve, but I'm not sure yet
DeleteWill we know more about the state of mind of the characters post-corrupted ?
ReplyDeleteWe don't see them interract a lot between themselves so we don't know how much they've changed and how much they stay the same.
I want to know Starlight wanted a family does she still want to? Does she want to heve it with the Devil and so does she love him? Zell and the oracle will they be a couple ?
Or will it be Zell and Lumiel?
Really hope to see some relationships developped (post-corruption especially).
Great work, btw
We'll have some relationship post corruption, but unfortunately, I can't develop it with all the character, or the serie would go on forever.
DeleteShinra where are you? Don't you care for us anymore T/////////T
ReplyDeleteI'm back...
DeleteSorry guys, had to travel, again, for my job >_<
Been away for the last 5 days.
I'm very curious as to what type of work you get to do that allows you to travel so much. Is it art related or something else (don't want to know a company just what you do). Is this a fun or stressful career?
DeleteAhaha not it's not art-related at all. I'm kinda bad with art in real life >_<
DeleteWorking in IT, though the company core business is not IT. 3 of our main divisions reside in the same city, but the fourth one is in another one.
My job is across the 4 divisions, so I often have to travel between those different business Unit.
In my area, I'm also responsible for the whole country at a regional level, and we are currently, heavily involved in regional project. Might be in SIN end of the month again ^^
He's a Chrysler dealer very stressful job and he also invented press and seal glad wrap.
ReplyDeletewait, youre from czech republic?
ReplyDeleteHe is from Midgar.
DeleteCorrect, I'm from Midgar and I'm living in a middle of a chocobo farm.
Delete
