Harriet Cooper Ch2... Last Update before realease!

This update is coming a bit later than what was originally planned, but I guess it's better late than never hum hum ^^

There's unfortunately always something getting in the way, and it's not always easy to cope with everything at the same time. Sorry for that...

But let's get back to business with this 75% update, the last one before final release.
The chapter is now up to 112 HD pages, and should count more or less 140-150 pages in total.

Hope you'll enjoy those few pics...

    2. If the guy with bella is already an incubus it must mean bella would be a succubus already right? She Already had 3 encounters. Gellina, the book and willingly with gellina again while with the teacher. The two character. Will probably be the guy and the girl in the red robe/ short black hair?

    3. One of the main HC character will get its first encounter ;)

  2. Great magnificent work, I hope that your problems settled I look forward to seeing this chapter, thank you.

  3. As much as I hate waiting, the end product is always worth the wait. I look forward to reading this chapter.

  6. If you put another image of Rachel or My Devoted New UnderWorld´s Queen here, i will be very glad to continue seeing this second Chapter. But if you don´t put it, don´t worry, because all your stories are Aweeeeeesome

    1. Your queen of the underworld is already there :), Shes in picture 3 and 5, they both have the same outfits

      Delete
    2. I don´t know what to think of the character that goes in the pics 3 and 6, i don´t know, i have doubts, if she is my Queen of Underworld.

      Delete
    3. They have similar outfits and the background the Queen of the underworld is in seems to belong to HC. Character in 3 and 6 looks like the same person. Of course all this are speculations, answers will be out in a few weeks

      Delete
    4. I would say that she is in pictures 3,4 and 6, I believe that queen of underworld that for some reason captivated most of folks is the bespectacled girl from previous HC update. This girl is in this update in pics 3,4,6 and the outfit that she wears seems to be the one that queen has, only difference is that the queen seems already corrupted and partially undressed. That's my guess anyway.
      On a sidenote it's a pity that the update we all waited so impatiently for has only 6 pics, previous update had 10. Still it's great as always.

      Delete
    5. Well shinra did say first post so more pictures. Well the queen of the underworld can always have been in her human form in picture 6, she could have already been corrupted but has not showed her new form yet.

      Delete
    6. Sorry guys for the confusion, but the Queen of the Underworld is an S-Class character and which is not part of HC ;)

      +the outfit is similar but yet not the same ^^

      Delete
    7. Who else are your S-Class characters? i suppose Tethys is one of them, you kept her corrupted form from us for two years! xD

      Delete
    8. Thanks for confirmed that the character is not My Queen of Underworld, Shinra. And i will go after you move your blog to another place that can allows your pics.

  7. The Girl on Picture 5, Is that the same Girl from the Party ( p.36 with John is) ?
    And the Guy is Tom :) !
    How many will be Corrupt in this part?
    and how many Comic will follow?

    Replies
    1. No it's not the same girl, but they do have the same look, yes.
      This chapter will "initiate" the corruption of 2 characters.

      HC is supposed to be a series of 12 mini chapters divided into 3 sub stories of 4 chapters each.

      Delete
    2. Will we see bellas succubus form in this chapter? By initiate you mean one of the the three acts to transform right?

      Delete
    3. Yes, we'll see Bella in her succubus form,
      And Yes, we'll see at least the first acts to transform for more than one character

      Delete
  8. Hello, I have a hypothesis for the girl of the photo 4. I noticed that she had the same mask as Gellina in photo 1 and 2, in my opinion she changed her appearance to seduce the man in photo 3. I can me deceived but if my reasoning is good gellina is the queen The Queen of the Underworld.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. They might just have the same masks. her hair looks the same as the girl in the red robe in the previous update. It might be her after her encounter with bella.

      Delete
    2. Some of you are really observing... ;)

      Delete
    3. previous update red robe?
      which one ? The student that has now a scarf on ( what is her name?) ! Or the Teacher in the the robe? The woman in Picture 4 has green Eyes now like the student also her mouth looks the same ! the glasses is missing so it cut by her ( a with a little update;-) ) Or it Could also be the Teacher ( a with a little update;-))
      and her Eyes color was changing, after her corruption ! maybe her wish was it to look like this student ! But why is this unknown Woman standing beside the Student this the Red Headband the friend of the female student?? If that what the Teacher this girl would It !!
      Is Hilde the "main" Character how is it or the the Guys how are looking what is going on ?

  9. Just read on the BBC site that Google are going to make sites with adult content private - will that effect your site?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Most probably it will affect his site, most of the other adult sites are finding alternatives. Shinra how about creating a tumblr and just linking the links to this blog. Or make a forum all together

      Delete
    2. Both Shinra and G9comics are already looking into solutions because, indeed, this new policy means the end of our blogs.

      No specific reason was given, just BAM, no more nudity allowed suddenly.
      The new policy will be enforced from march 23 onwards, so that's how long we have to find something new.

      Delete
    3. As Mpgrey stated it on the above, the news is true...Blogger Content Policy is going to change very soon...

      Yesterday, we all received an email informing us that, from the 23rd of March onwards, blogger willll no longer allow blogs that contain sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video.

      After this policy comes into force, Google will restrict access to any blog identified as being in violation of their revised policy. Content will not be deleted, but only blog authors will be able to see the content that they've made private.

      You'll have probably understood it by now, this spells the end of our adventure on Blogger >_<
      Yes, H3N and G9MP Comics wo't exist in their current form or at the same address anymore...

      But as Mpgrey also explained in his previous comment, we are looking at several other alternatives and already have a good idea in mind to bring you to another level, a brand new experience, which we'll hope will be even better.

      More details will follow as soon as we're making progress on the subject ;)

  10. When will it be released? I can't wait to read it as soon as possible!!

    ReplyDelete
  11. When you updated your characters, did you remodel them? or did you just retexture them?
    Does gellina's succubus form look the same as before but with updated graphics or did you redo her entirely?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Gellina has been entirely re-textured and I brought slight improvement to her model

      Delete
  12. Hate to be this guy, but do you have an expected completion date? And will this be released in one go, or in parts, like your previous comic?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. This will be released as a whole. It's small enough for that.
      If this would be released in the regular style with normal pages, it would consist of about 65-70 pages.

    Replies
    1. New blogger policy?
      What's this about?

    2. It's being mentioned a few times if you scroll a little upwards.
      Basically, Blogger has announced that they won't tolerate erotic material on their blogs anymore from march 23 onwards.
      This means that this blog will close and that Shinra needs to search for a new website as a replacement.

      Delete
  18. The new Google policy got dropped again after protests, don't worry.

  19. Rejoice! Google has backed off their plan to block porn on blogger due to negative feedback. They are going to "step up" their enforcement policy on commercial porn which shouldn't effect this site. Here is a link for more details.

    1. This is fantastic news!
      Very weird though, that I need to learn this from your link. We got an email from Blogger earlier this week with the bad news; it would have been kind, to say the least, to also inform everyone with an email that they suddenly reversed their decision (and that we can stop panicking about quickly finding another solution).

      The blogs are safe for now, woohoo! \o/

      Delete
    2. You guys might want to think about packing up and moving to Tumblr or something else anyway.

      Delete
    3. I can tell you that Shinra indeed already was playing around with the idea to move to another platform (not because of censorship but because of other Blogger limitations), but he certainly won't mind the fact that he now isn't forced to do so in a hurry anymore.

      Delete
    4. Yes, my plan is still to move to some other platform to get my own website free of policies and limitations ^^

      But as Mpgrey said, I'd rather take my time to implement this the good way rather than rushing and put a dodgy website together.

  22. Is Hilde The main Character in the story or a the strongest ? I ask, because it is one name, that you was telling us, but to that moment she was not really in the Story !?
    Will we see her in this comic?
    And is there a good main Character in this story ?

    1. The main characters are of course Harriet, Minea and Donald.
      Hilde is just one of their classmate, in other words, canon fodder :P

    1. This comic was intended to be finished by march but real life caught up so its delayed unfortunately.

    2. Sometimes it is necessary to know how to be patient especially that this comic strip is free then is not the truck to get excited. Do not forget that the artist behind his PC is human and that he can unfortunately have problems.

  24. Do you know when you'll finish this comic?

    Replies
    1. As from next week, I'll be on my own for 3 weeks before flying for 1 month for business then holiday. The plan is, of course, to finish the chapter before I leave...

      Delete
    2. If you don't manage to finish before you leave we are gonna have to wait for 2 months. That's sad news.

      That being said, after H.C you have to revisit your other comics right? do we have to wait till next year for another fallen star?

      Delete
    3. Have a safe flight and enjoy work as much as possible. Please please consider uploading what you can of the comic to e hentai before you leave if it isn't finished!

      And if you are open to it, I definitely "vote" for Fallen Star to be your next project! It's great. I really want to keep reading that.

  25. please mr.shinra-kun, update in g.e-hentai.org

  26. Would it be very wishful thinking to hope for a weekend release? :D

    1. As wishful as fallen star being released the next week, shinra is already doubting himself if he could finish it within three weeks before he leaves.

  27. Shinra what happened to the nemesis comic, did it become the legion comic?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. No, they are different story.
      NemesisXIII was supposed to be a scifi comic, but unfortunately, I didn't go really far with the story. I began rendering without having a good idea whereI was going, so I had to put it on hold.

      I still wanna do a scifi story at some point, but let's first finish what we have on the grill, because there's already a lot :D

      Delete
    2. Wouldn't you have to re - render everything again, from yoru to the already done scenes of nemesis. Since your art has upgraded. Or have you already bridge yoru together with the old scenes of hariet

      P.S is the thing still 78% or are you only going to start rendering next week?

  28. this week???
    how far are you?

    2. The story is a lot shorter than TFS was so no there won't be anymore updates until Chapter 2 is released.

      Delete
    3. I know that, what i meant was update as in the bar moving, not a blog post with pics. Cause it was left at 78% for quite a long time.

  34. Shinra, have you tried the new DAZ Beta with Nvidia rendering? It really takes some getting used to. Finally got to point where I wanted last month with 3Delight rendering, now this update comes out and...aw heck, gotta relearn everything about lighting again from scratch. Skydomes now need to become emitters, old lightsets are completely useless, shaders will need to be applied to everything... Some nice stuff though: previews and rendering is a lot faster, light is more realistic everywhere (though still missing shaders for stuff like clothes), details come out more natural looking. Do kinda miss the cartoony look with the stronger colors. It's going to be one hell of a switch!

    To give an example to everyone, here's 18 from the DBZ parody I was working on.
    This is old DAZ: http://i.imgur.com/6UQszVk.jpg
    This is new DAZ: http://i.imgur.com/s71qGYI.jpg

    What are you going to do Shin? Stick with the old or in for the new?

    With regards,
    Vengerberk (previously anonymous)

    Replies
    1. I've tried it, but it looks like I'm kinda stuck with the good old Daz 3Delight engine for now...

      I've actually always been rendering on a old laptop (workstation) which is a monster performance-wise, but not quite adapted for 3D rendering even tho' the laptop include a NVidia Quadro >_<
      I'm even more retarded now that all those new technologies like Cuda and Iray are getting common.

      To render just a character shoot without anything else, no background, no nothing it took 40 mins and the final result still had artifacts in it,
      Which means that this is unusable for me at that stage >_<

      Reading at the daz3d forum about this new Iridum release, people were talking about their config and I was amazed to see how many of them have machine with 2, 4 or even 8 monster graphic cards like GTX980 or Tesla O_o

      So there's no way for me to jump on that new 3D engine unless I rebuilt a complete new machine, and since my comics are free I don't want to spend 3 grants for nothing... :D

      Delete
    2. Ooofph, that's a shame. Maybe time to start a Patreon to fund expenses? Been looking into this myself (possibly as a team-up). I don't have a monstercard either, just a single 670 that didn't seem to help 3Delight.

      The preparation takes longer now, but with Iray it's able to do a single character+lighting+skydome+basic set within minutes, then it spends 10 minutes refining shadows and skin depth. The remaining time is just slight fixes that can be cancelled. Way faster then before for me.

      Have to say: after some more experiments, it's totally worth the switch. Skin feels so much more thick and life-like. You could rerender your old comics and turn them into super HD versions! :-D (just kidding, that would be insane)

      Just some more pic from the experiments:
      Here's the same #18 shot with G2 skin shaders: http://i.imgur.com/YPFtTa6.jpg
      Here's an older lady to test HD wrinkles and my own improved skin textures: http://i.imgur.com/WQABMiG.jpg
      Same one, testing some liquid shading: http://i.imgur.com/qp6jJg6.jpg
      Same shot, with custom alien Sith textures, also testing smaller light emitters (lightsaber, HUD) and a metal shader: http://i.imgur.com/klw9Wnc.jpg

      Delete
    3. I have big plans and Patreon is a part of it, but to implement all of these, it takes time, time that I don't have right now >_<

      The few tests I've done with IRay are really good, but way too slow with my current config. It's ok if you're selling image sets of 50-100 pics, but not when you're creating full fledged comic that requires a 1000+ pics >_<

      The preparation time should not change for me, as I was already reworking nearly all the shaders and textures in my scenes, and the lighting is actually way faster to setup with IRay for a way better result.

      Things is, as I have to build a complete new machine (can't put a brand new GFX on a laptop ^^) I would definitely go for a big config rather than something in the middle which will need to be updated in the short term anyway... Raaaah dilemma dilemma >_<

      Delete
    4. If you started a Patreon, I'd gladly contribute money to help out. You're one of the VERY few artists in this niche, and a talented one at that. It's the least I could do to contribute to the community. (I can't do art ;_;)

      Delete
    5. I'll make sure to remind it to you when the time comes :P

      Delete
    6. From what i see, most artist that uses patreon gets access to sketches, unused content, comic ideas and commissions varying on how much you pledge as a form of thanks. Are you doing something similar? and if you do so provide commissions for high amount pledgers, wont it take out time from the comics?

      Delete
  35. Vengerberk, the images provided are looking very good. Is your parody corruption based like the comics shinra makes?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yup. It's kinda what you're used to with Shin, but more parody based. Shinra is one of the few people who does comics right (alongside G9 and cartoonists like PBX), so instead of waiting for other people to make stuff, I decided to start producing my own. Problem is you get better and better at the technology, which causes the dilemma Shin talked about in his previous post. That's why there's nothing online yet (apart from some scraps which look horrible compared to the new stuff). But it'll work out. DBZ, Smash Bros, Star Wars...heck I might even do a Call of Duty parody. I'll launch a blog somewhere this year, Shinra will get dibs on the final previews. ;-)

    1. No, the comic consists of exactly the same type of pictures as you're used to from all his other comics; the only difference is that there now aren't multiple pictures on one page. Instead, each picture is its own page.

    2. There's still hope, I doubt that he wants to have to leave it like that for 2 more months; but work always takes priority over hobbies like these so we'll have to wait patiently if he can't get it done in time.

  47. 95% means you are left with editing and the covers + upload right?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I know that 99% is the signal for uploading, but I can't remember the exact % for the story being done and editing underway.

      Regardless though, not trying to jinx it but I think the chances just went up that he might just get everything done before his trip. :)

      Delete
    2. iirc, when releasing fallen star he did mention 95% means the story was done, left with error checking, English and pictures. But that might only be for fallen star

      Delete
    3. You guys are both right.
      But let's not underestimate the remaining work ;)

  48. Probably in a week is released, lets just sit down and wait a little bit longer :)

    ReplyDelete
  49. People, i don´t think that Shinra will start again with the Chapter IX of The Fallen Star, i think that after this second Chapter of Harriet, he will rest a little and continue with the second Chapter of Yoru No Majin, and after that, god and Shinra will decide it.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Above he did say most likely yes that he would be working on TFS, unless of course someone commissioned it, iirc yoru had someone commissioning it or something due to the smoking scene thing. With the upgrade of his comics, the quality of course went up but the waiting time has been lengthened at least three folds. With so many comics, people have to wait a year for the next chapter. Since TFS is the main comic, it should have the most priority.

      Delete
    2. Unless your out of the blue comment, is not a "think" but already what Shinra is intending to do and he let you in on it. What a pity then we would have to wait for 2016 for the next chapter of TFS.

      I think when shinra first made these many comics, the production time was not as long, now that everything has went up, its best to finish one series or alternate between TFS and other sub comics.

      Something like TFS, yoru, TFS , legion and so on. Just a suggestion.

      Delete
    3. I hope he starts on Fallen Star. Fallen Star is really interesting now with all the plot twists.

      Delete
  50. To give you a little bit of insight regarding the release, We are now definitely entering the "edition" phase... as I was saying a few posts above, a phase not to be underestimated.

    I'm flying to Malaysia for work on Thursday morning and have high doubts it will be ready before that... I'm leaving for quite awhile so there's unfortunately one million things I have to do before >_<
    Anyway, I should be in Europe on the weekend and will take my laptop with me, so "if" and I say IF everything is ready by then, I will upload the chapter. My ultimate deadline is the 1st of April, as after that I'm off to Africa for 2 weeks and won't have any computer with me ^^

    Let's hope that for once... everything goes ok with this release :P

    1. Hopefully you did everything nicely and there are minimal corrections, looking forward to the weekend!

    2. Most important thing: good luck with work, safe travels, and enjoy yourself. That's some really good travelling.

      But yeah, if you can please try and get it done. Heck, if you can get half of it done, just upload half. No need to even do a new cover. But I'm excited.

      But stay safe and enjoy yourself.

    3. The editing is already done. Depending on Shinra's available time tuesday and wednesday, a release before he leaves is still a possibility.
      Don't pin him down on it though. :)

    4. Two weeks with no computer....Shudder. The last time I did that I got a lot of work and a lot of writing done and I never want to do it again! lol
      Hope your work goes well and you have fun.

    5. Wow, that was fast, nice work editing department :P

    6. Would be awesome if shinra could upload it by Thursday.

      Just wondering, why do you always make the cover page last? Shouldn't the cover page be like some sort of teaser?

      Delete
    7. Ahahah I know the feeling JSmith ^^
      I've said no computer, but I'll still have my iPad and iPhone would have been too hard otherwise. Such addicted to technology >_<

      Delete
    8. I don't know if I'm doing it right but, I usually make the cover last because I try to represent the overall feeling of the chapter in the cover.

      I'll try to keep your suggestion in mind for the next chapter of TFS ;)

      Delete
    9. Well its not wrong that the cover represents the overall feel of the chapter, i made that statement on assumption you have the overall feel after plotting the chapter but it seems you get the overall feel after rendering everything. :)

      One more thing, aren't the pictures in this chapter full pictures per page, i realized some of your teaser pictures are cropped, unless there are special things happening at the corners XD

  51. Hey Shinra-kun, I know you're busy and all with stuff so I'll just put the idea out there for now, maybe if you like it we can do something about it in the future.

    Have you thought about hosting a larger community dedicated to corruption? Like having a forum where people of similar interests can get together to discuss topics as well as make their own content. With a forum, you can have boards and threads organize topics of discussion rather than have them all thrown together in the blog comments.

    I think PlayShapes ended up sharing all of the source files to his hentai Flash projects, and a forum was born out of it where people got together and produced a lot of content. A lot of people used the forum as a way to reach out and find people to collaborate with, often times with a lot of success. With your name being as established as it is, starting a community off of it should gather you quite a dedicated following to start.

    In addition, I personally don't really like having my identity shown here due to the options I have, and seeing the amount of anonymous posts perhaps a lot of other people feel the same way. If you created a forum, I wouldn't hesitate to register a name I'll be able to post more confidently. Even if someone made a throwaway account, it makes it more likely that they will come back posting more often and end up being a regular.

    More importantly, if there's a lot of activity going on on the forums, it takes a lot of the pressure off of your release schedule. If people find other ways to busy themselves and get involved, they wouldn't be so impatient and naggy (unless you like the attention, and I wouldn't blame you :P).

    1. A forum would be a great idea, people can make fan art of shirnas work and so on, people are naggy because there are not much corruption comics out there that are comparable to shinras work.

      Side note, I comment actively here but i'm bad at thinking of names so i remain anonymous all the time.

    2. I'll try to plan something like that when I'll work on the new website ;)

  52. Always so much drama about getting it done in time.

    1. I'm sure shinra takes that positively, if there's no drama means no one is interested.

  55. This will definitely be a weekend release guys, impossible for today...

    3. Lol 'definitely', fate has been officially tempted here, it's getting serious now.

      Delete
    4. It's a pretty safe bet though. Except for the cover and an introduction page that will be written by JNightshade, the comic is 100% done and ready for upload.

      Delete
    5. Honestly, it doesn't feel like it's been that long since Shinra-kun's last release. This is a great feeling. :D

      Delete
    6. We're kinda spoiled aren't we? :3

      Delete
    7. Just be realistic in your expectations, people.
      H.C. is a shorter, lighter story than Fallen Star.
      This chapter consists of "just" 146 pages, making it considerably smaller than Shinra's previous release.

      Delete
    8. For better or worse HC was written so Shinra could put out a chapter fairly quickly. This has advantages (not as long a wait) and drawbacks (less story than the rather epic FS)...

      Delete
    9. Even really short chapters of fairly good quality content is more than I could ask for. Like I've mentioned many times before here, this is a very small niche. Beggars can't be choosers. I'm certainly grateful.

      Delete
  56. Introduction is done, waiting on cover and final read through (probably a couple of tweaks )and it will be ready.

  57. Gah, feels like it'll be here any minute now! Can't wait :D

    2. Today??

      i doubt that..

    3. True, shinra would only be in europe over the weekend, so hes probably flying now since malaysia to europe is like half a days travel. Just 1 or 2 more days of waiting i guess.

      Delete
  58. forget the cover..

    can be supplemented later on

    1. The thing here is shinra would only be able to upload when hes in europe i guess not because hes doing the cover.

  62. Would it still technically be possible to upload the comic tonight?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Technically yes, however Europe is minimum 5 hours ahead of the eastern timezone and we don't exactly know which country he's in so it's hard to tell what time/day it is for him right now; it's entirely possible it's already Sunday for him.

      Delete
    2. It's also possible that some of the fans are European :P

      Delete
    3. Glad to hear from you, hope your trip has been going well so far :)

    4. How many hours is that from now? Confusing due to different time zones.

      Delete
    5. we have to wait something between 8-10 hours.

    6. If hes following this blogs time, it would already be monday afternoon when he uploads here in asia.

    7. European or American time? It's about an 8-10 hour time difference...
