Thank you for the support! You guys and grrls are awesome!

See how it all ties in? Faulk and Cora and Max were talking about Peggy's foot, and now she has an ticklichy shower foot. Writing!  

I had originally planned to have a lot of conversations in the comic take place in the showers, because, well, glistening superheroines. There are two reasons that this is only the third or fourth appearance of the showers in nearly 1400 pages. One, I just kind of keep forgetting to do it. Like if I have people standing around the base talking, it's usually out in the lounge. Well, also, if the scene requires mixed company, then it can't take place in the shower. The team is not that progressive. Also certain characters wouldn't quite make sense wandering in for a line or two. Like Arianna probably doesn't use the showers all that often. Not never, but while she may do a morning jog with the team, she's not doing obstacle courses after lunch, or early afternoon weight training. Also, if she's giving Harem or Dabbler a warning about sexual harassment, that lecture loses some of its gravitas if done while soaping one's bosoms. 

The other reason is that despite several attempts, I have no idea how to use Blender. I did actually make a 3D model of the room in Blender at one point quite a while ago, but then realized that I have no idea how to texture a room? I don't know how to texture an apple, but that's a pretty easy tutorial to find. UV unwrap, apply texture... that's basically it. But an interior? It's one thing to apply "stucco" to a wall, but this room has tiles that have to line up correctly, and I imagine that involves slicing the room into dozens of component pieces... well, probably it means making one chest-high wall then duplicating it with an array, etc, etc. But I don't know how to do that stuff. And so... I have to draw the interior of the room in 2D and lay in all those textures in perspective each time there's a camera change. Well, not each time. I just have to do it once and then I copy/paste it all for other panels with the same angle. It's quite a bit more work than having two characters stand in front of a brown wall, for sure.

"Cora is human"? Was that intended to be "Sydney is human"?

As someone familiar with Blender, I can tell you that you can take a floorplan and extrude the walls up from those lines. The chest-high walls? Draw out their footprint and extrude to the height desired. Tiling the walls and floor can be done with a texture map.

There's ways and ways. Especially with a room design as straightforward as the shower room seems to be. Getting textures right on a human figure, now that's challenging. :)

That first panel makes me appreciate the itty bitty titty committee for sure.

So about that Vote Incentive.... On a more serious note, as for modelling the room in blender, you could probably reach out to a 3D artist on the-site-formerly-known-as-twitter (there's thousands of them and they're pretty easy to find, especially if you're familiar with r34 *cough*) and just... commission one to model the room for you? Like send them all the comics pages that show it thus far, a rough layout and tell them what you want to be able to do with it, they give you a price, done.

Sidney's "Babe. It's me." Hee hee. Self awareness.

I've tickled myself before. It's extremely difficult to do on purpose, to the point where it is impossible to do reliably, but it can happen randomly when you aren't trying to do it, usually when a patch of skin is particularly sensitive, and you are making very, very gentle contact with it, so for me it usually happens right after a shower since I scrub really hard it leaves my flesh just slightly raw, which makes a few places extra sensitive.

I'm genuinely wondering if they built that bathroom with shower stalls with walls of varying heights. Because what is shoulder height for Sidney and Peggy is an OnlyFans preview for Maxima and Anvil.

Another Page that would be fantastic to have an NSFW version of on the Patreon.

Frix is due for a double noogie.

You know, I'm pretty sure Archon could afford to give their shower stalls ceiling height walls, My gym has that, plus curtains across the stall entrances. So this design choice suggests to me that the architect was a bit of an...extrovert.
