Shadowrun: After Hours




Shadowrun Re-Re-Returns. With sexy elf bartender Cherry Bomb taking another crack at the Troll Shaman. It's 43 pics of cyberpunky sex at mongo-bongo-art.com. And the set download is free for members for next month(-ish).

And in honor of the game expansion being delayed, we have a set that took slightly longer than anticipated as well. Shit-ton of postwork on the shower scenes. Not to mention figuring out how to set up the renders to get the reflections, transparency, and be able to put the postwork beneath it. But it got done. And it came out well, so I am pleased.

Though after doing the set, I have come to the conclusion that I need to start using SSS (sub-surface scattering). For those that don't know, it's the effect of light hitting the skin and partially getting absorbed, bounced around inside the skin, and then reflecting back out. So SSS simulates that and gives a more realistic appearance. Personally, I couldn't give two shits about realism EXCEPT for the fact that since I've started using higher bump map settings the skin looks particularly "off" in certain lighting angles. And SSS will correct some of that. I've been slightly hesitant to go that route cuz a) it takes longer to render, and b) I didn't want it to screw up my toon-esque style. But after some testing I think I've got something that will work. Will post some pics in another update.




Movie review time! The Monuments Men... LOL I'm totally kidding. It has Matt Damon in it. Fuck Matt Damon! And to make it worse, it has George Clooney as well. And frankly I've had about enough of those ass-clowns trying to shove their political views down my throat. I just want to watch a movie, not be indoctrinated into some political cult. Just from the trailers you can tell it's gonna be another "military are uncultured idiots, while ivory tower elitists save the world". Fuck that bullshit. So yeah, didn't see it. Not gonna.

Instead I'm gonna make mention of Kill la Kill. It's an anime that started last year from a new company called Trigger. And if you liked Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann then you'll probably like Kill la Kill as well. Not surprising since it's done by some of the same guys that did TTGL. And follows the same premise of being completely absurd and ridiculous, with a heavy dose of over-the-top sexual innuendo and panty shots. So not alot of deep thinking is required. The plot, such that it is, involves sentient alien clothing trying to take over the world *spoiler!*. But it's really about Ryuko (think fem-version of Kamina) transforming into this and running around beating shit up. That's pretty much it. Oh, and taking a cue from their mistakes with Yoko in TTGL they made very very very sure to make very very clear that she is 17. LOL. In any case, you should check it out (I suggest EyeOnAnime for your streaming needs). It's fun, amusing, and entertaining. Y'know, the complete opposite of Matt Damon & George Clooney.

Downright excellent. Great art! Continuity! X-ray shots! This is why I became a site member. Can't wait to see what you've got coming up next.

Also, now I can't stop imagining Matt Damon from 'Team America' and laughing.

Set looks pretty cool and makes me wish you'd do more shower/rain scenes - though you presumably don't want to do more yourself. I'll also now be disappointed if we don't get a set of Satsuki being gangraped by some of her students in outlandish looking outfits. That or Ragyo and her having some fun.

Just a pity you don't really do wordy sets, would be fun to have Junketsu whispering obscenities and suggestions in to Satsuki's head as she's taken, prompting her to beg for it in ways that turn on her rapists.

wow this is crazy, ive been agreeing with your comments and loved your sets for years now, but .... not today on either account. im sad to say its true.... I like matt damon and George Clooney and simply ignore their political crap and just watch the movies. the one difference? you were sooooooo fucking right about 'elysium' god awful fucking 2 dimensional, black and white movie of crazy racist epic proportions...many blow jobs got that film green lit...only excuse I can figure...jody foster must have had a expensive power bill to get paid or she broke a window....

anyway onto your set...what happened to the level of awesome I have become accustomed to over the many many years with you? the shower sequence was great, everything else was ....not so much...you didn't smooth out any of her curves and her ass looked flat, then lumpy and horrifically atrocious in every shot, how dare you?!? what happened to her rounded bubbly poofy delicious ass she had before? is she on crack now all of a sudden? the troll had a nicer ass! shame on you....shame....also the last five or six shots, the troll's horns are gone...where the fuck did they go?!? was it a hat or something? am I missing something? if so please explain. I mean im well aware you like tony and don't do realism, but give us a nice ass for crying out loud, lol

anyway thanks for the great stuff over the years! hugs and kisses, toodles!

@Vegtam - Glad you like!

@Lazy - Actually the shower postwork wasn't terribly difficult. It was just figuring out how to do it. Rain on the other hand is a bit tougher. And possibility of Kill la Kill set sometime later. But currently trying to focus on the models/themes I already got.

@Turias - Matt Damon & George Clooney are the devil I tell you! They are! As for her ass, think you are a bit off on that one. Maybe in the belly bulge pic, but otherwise not seeing it dude. But omg you are so right on the horns! Totally missed that in the last two pics. Oops! Oh well. Whole set is ruined I guess.

Ahah I Have found that anime for the first time one week ago .. It's "Funny" xD Why Don't you create a set on ryuko and senketsu .. ?? Ahah

Vegtam said...

@Turias - Well, he IS a shaman; maybe retractable / detachable horns is one of his shamanic powers.

Loving these multiple camera angle shots you started using. Cherry looks good, though she comes off a bit savvy for my tastes... IMO your hottest sets are with the innocent girls... Gwen Stacy, Zelda, Asuna. In the spirit of the Olympics, how about some interracial action for V-Day? Would love to see an East Indian character introduced. Just throw a sari on Squaw Girl and you're done. Keep it up, MB! #SubscriberForLife

I kinda had to releuctantly agree with turios on the ass thing, bro.
I sent ya an email with attached pics of what I saw and perhaps were his points too I suppose, dunno
you usually have great asses, so this one really stood out
love ya anyway, though lol

Vegtam said...

I predict that Mongo will go straight to ludicrous speed and give the girl in his next set a cartoonishly large ass that takes up 30% of her body mass, saying, "THERE! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!"

iberios said...

hahahahahaha, I don't know bout the other guy who started this but for me that would be "overcorrecting" I don't want a large ass, I just want mongo's usual awesome ass of awesomeness is all, hahahahahahahaa
again I dunno bout the others , but ive been a huge fan of mongo's for years now, and I was just hoping this wasn't gonna be the beginning of the end like hitman, cuz his downfall and eventual disappearance started with syndori's ass going weird too. those that forget history are doomed to repeat it! and I would not see that happen to mongo if I can do anything about it! "NOT TODAY! NOT ON MY WATCH!" HAHAHAHAHAHA besides....I love asses....tee hee

.... Yeeeaaahhhh... I'm just gonna stay out of this one....
