Donation Art Update - "The TransRepo Effect"

After years of working with Powerman2000, I finally have the opportunity to feature his beautiful expansion art as a part of the donation project.

It's been too long since we featured some serious new expansion work on the Donation Art page and Powerman2000 is just the artist to provide it.  Utilizing some of my favorite plant based tfs and expansion concepts, Powerman2000 has provided a beautiful, gorgeously colored comic featuring none other than TransRepo Industries - and their genetic planting grounds.  College students who  plan on conducting industrial espionage or undercover journalism...should probably dress appropriately.

18 full color pages in a high quality pdf file.  Three multi-page transformation/expansion sequences.  Some nudity.

"The TransRepo Effect" is an 18 page comic available for a small donation of $7.50 - 1/3 of which will go directly back to the artist while the rest will continue to fund new art!  Thanks for the support and let's make 2017 a great TransRepo Year!

"What did I tell you - the right ingredients and a little patience - and these sweeties will turn out perfectly.  I mean, would you just take a look at these - can you zoom in a little more?  Absolutely divine.  What's more, we've got enough for everyone in the audience to try one - believe me you don't want to miss out on one of these babies!"

"What?  Where'd they all go?"

"Well that cleared the studio faster than usual...I thought we'd have at least one fetishist left behind...ya know the ones you gotta get security to haul out....never can tell with some types.  Their loss....these things are great."

"And that's a wrap....who's up for lunch?  Chinese today?"

Lot of thunderstorms around here the last few days.

---------------------

"Like I was saying folks, these treats are nearly done.  And if you look closely, you can see them rising very nicely.  I know some people just talk about mixing things together and having it all come together.  Honestly, that might work for a few people - and every now and then you might get lucky - but let's face it - it really helps to measure out everything just right - these recipes are tried and true for a reason."

"That's the same reason I always use real sugar in my recipes - on the show and in my books.  There's just no substitute for the real thing.  Sure I prefer a little sweetener in my coffee - but when it comes to baking, real food, whathaveyou - it's about quality over quantity - even if it does add a few calories to the final product."

"Mmmm - this tastes amazing - but they're not quite done yet.  Looks like just a few more minutes before our first batch of goodies will be ready to take out.  Like I was just saying - a few snacks here and there are fine, but you've got to watch your intake if you want to keep a figure like mine."

"That's not to say that you're limited to making just a few of each item - half the fun of baking a lot of sweet treats is being able to share them with other folks - friends, coworkers, family members and so forth."

"Well, there go her pants.  At least we don't have to blur the image this time around."

"And we're back from our sponsored messages.  If you're just joining us now, this is our special spring baking episode - where I'm sharing some of my favorite baked goods and pastry treats.  Now obviously it's easy to get carried away when cooking these sorts of sweets.  A little licking the mixers here, a little leftover batter on this spoon and it's all - a second on the lips, a lifetime on the hips."

"At least that's what my mom always said - bless her heart - but it's certainly possible to whip up some amazing goodies and still keep your figure.  It just takes a bit more effort - a little extra time on the treadmill...but more than worth it if you ask me."

"People are always asking me - 'Trina - I don't understand how you stay so thin - especially eating the way you do on your show - what's your trick?' - and I always respond, 'I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.'  Just kidding, seriously...there's not really any secret.  I've been blessed with a great metabolism.  I mean....there might be a few other tricks up my sleeve - but who am I kidding - who'd want to cover up these arms?"

"Ok, now these muffins have been sitting and rising long enough - time to get them in the oven.  And we'll be back after these messages from our sponsors here at TR-I TV."

"And we're on in five, four, three, two......"

"Hi there everyone, and welcome to 'Cooking with Trina' - today's premiere cooking show.  I'm your hostess Trina and today we're all in for a real treat.  That's right, today is our spring baking special!  I don't know about you folks out there, but I couldn't be more excited...I mean sure we all love Christmas cookies and cakes and other snacks....but there's so much variety out there and today we'll be demonstrating a few of my favorite recipes."

"As always, 'Cooking with Trina' is sponsored by TransRepo Industries here on TR-I TV and to assist us in today's presentation, we have a new type of quick-rising flour developed by the eggheads upstairs.  I don't know about you, but I've been seeing some rave reviews about this stuff, and I'm really looking forward to testing it out today!"

"Should she be tasting the batter already?  They said this stuff was really fast-acting."

"Relax...I made sure they watered it down properly this time.  This episode will be perfect.  Trust me."

The Rehabilitation of Princess - 24

Apologies for the delay in posting.  Been very busy with work/travel the last few weeks and had some technical issues trying to post a week ago.  I do have a new sequential piece by a favorite artist to go up either this week or next week depending on my schedule. 


Turns out TransRepo Industries offers a support group[s] for employees and others who've had issues in the past.

Who'da thunk it?

The Rehabilitation of Princess - 16

Finally getting time for a little R&R the next week or so.  The last few weeks have been insane at work.  Hope everyone else out there gets a little time off this time of year as well.

-----------

Heading in to HR at TransRepo Industries - Princess is hoping to get her old job back.

Caption Entry - TheUnthinker

Well it came down to the wire, but I did get a number of solid contest entries for Caption Challenge #3.

I'll post them all by the submitter, and then a separate post for the awards.

First we have a number from TheUnthinker (a pretty broad variety of topics including bimboization, tf, tg, and AR/AB/DL) - including the only sequences submitted:

Solios - Field Trials Interim - Conclusion

I apologize for the delays.  My work schedule has not been particularly flexible these last few days.

That said, solios has done an amazing job fleshing out this transformation - and many thanks again to the anonymous benefactor who donated enough to add 3 pictures to the final sequence.

Starting from our established image of the former facility chief of security Rhonda McCampbell.

{AI recognizes voiceprint of Chairwoman Francesco - automatic recording systems activated}"Well, I just finished the conference call.  The board has decided to hold off on any final determination regarding Heinrich till the next official monthly meeting."

"Well, that was the general consensus in CIC as well Chairwoman.  Forensics is having a heckuva time deciphering the notes we recovered for these and other substances - and Chems isn't having much more luck reverse-engineering the samples.  We'll probably need to debrief him *fully* on the back end of this incident before taking any of these further."

"You read my mind Shelly.  What's the status here now?"

"Well, all three subjects have displayed next to no reaction to being moved again from the container to their current holding cell.  Best we can tell, they're still totally high."

"Any further changes from the last report?"

"Well, nothing has been noted in the last hour - it appears that even a serious overdose for any of these three substances (individually at least) is not enough to be fatal - but obviously we only have the single cases to base this judgment on - although frankly, they weren't exactly the picture of good health 12 hour ago either."

"Sounds good.  I'm officially closing out emergency event I3BXXXY071315-1.  All further research will follow routine corporate protocols. Good work all of you.  We'll handle Ms. McCampbell in a few days. {voiceprint ends, pause recording}

Field Trials Interim - Poll 2

Thank you very much to everyone who voted - now is the opportunity to put your money where your mouth is:

We'll start with a timeframe of 1 week and see if we can't build any momentum from that - I'm hoping it's enough time, but it may be open a little longer than that.  Initial Deadline: Midnight EST Wednesday 26 Aug.

Based on your votes:

You're donating to support images portraying the transformation of chief of security Rhonda McCampbell from this:

To something potentially closer to this (although we're finalizing details right now...I think we'll have a few new surprises this time).

I have already paid for the first and last image in this sequence.  The interim images are up to your generosity.  $60 for every stage - and I will pay the balance for a partial stage. 

Currently: 2 Images.

All donations will be counted towards the total (I'll eat the paypal fees), but for easy addition, each donation should be at least $1.  I'll post updates every couple of days (as my schedule allows) - on a little sidebar section - so stay tuned.

Donations can be made via my paypal account - the same as my donation art project.  Just leave a note letting me know it's for Solios!  Of course, if you'd like to donate for another art project at the same time - that's too easy - just drop me a line via email afterwards!

{AI recognizes voiceprint of Chairwoman Francesco - automatic recording systems activated} "So you've got her secured?  Good.  She's still a valuable employee and we have plans for her."

"Chairwoman?  We've regained visual.  Should be a solid feed from here on in."

"Glad to hear it.  Wow!  Just wow.  Did they accept the transition to the transport just like that?"

"Well the retrieval team reported no issues - other than a few nosy neighbors - easily tranked."

"It was a pretty simple transfer apparently - the forklift was the only equipment required - the container was just the right size."

"Let's hope the central one doesn't pack on too much more in the next couple of hours."

"The holding facility is more than equipped to handle anything up to a couple of tons with what they have on hand."

"All that activity, movement...and practically no physical reaction whatsoever.  Looks like Heinrich was on to something at least.  I guess we can add that to the list of side effects for each one....although the one on the right sure does look a little freaked."

"Well, the retrieval team wasn't able to pry the controller out of her hands - she's got a grip like a vice.  Makes things a little weirder since we couldn't fit the TV or console in the container....so we're not exactly sure what she's looking at."

"Well, the next time they stop for gas, make sure they give her some eye drops or something - we're not looking at permanent damage here."

Part 5: Conclusion

 

    Katie Oswald worked as one of the many junior accountants at TransRepo Industries.  Normally, that meant she and her team stayed pretty much in the sixth and seventh floors of the main building.  Today, something was different.  She was touring part of the newly developed Nanite Containment Facility.  There were some minor irregularities in the cost reporting and they needed to be rectified before the monthly reports could be completed.  Her, along with two other junior accountants, and her immediate supervisor were in a group of temporary cubicles just outside the Biological Level 2 Containment Zone.

    She caught as strange flicker in the air but it had vanished when she turned her head towards it.      After looking around a while, she decided it had to be some kind of hallucination or something.  She returned to the pile of invoice slips that had become her duty to reconcile.  She really wished these scientists would take better care when doing the accounts.  Didn’t they know how important it was?

    After a few hours, she noticed an itch at her waist and absentmindedly brushed the dark hairs away.  Sheena’s hair, she noted mentally.  How could that dog lose so much hair chasing frisbees and not end up bald?  When the hair didn’t brush away, she tugged at it.  It was solidly attached.  This was strange.  She walked over to the women’s washroom for a closer look at the hair.

Part 4:  Reactions

    Betty Kowalski was working in the computer server area.  She was helping on of the technicians thread a new fiberoptic bundle through the already crowded collection of cables that already filled the cable bay.

“There should be an easier way,” she muttered.

“Not without breaking the containment seal on the other side of the wall,” the technician responded.

“Are we that close to …”

“Level 2 is on the other side.  We’re just running an line to the virus lab.  Good thing.  They’d kill us all if we had to shut down level 2 like we did last time.  Seems even a few days is more than they want to give up.”

“We’re not in any danger?”

“No.  The virus side’s been virtually shutdown for months.  Nothing hazardous in there any more.”

“Oh.  Was there?  Before?”

“Don’t know.  All I know is we had to work in the damned hazmat suits ten months ago when we recalled the building.”

    A jet of silvery mist caught Betty in the face.  Unconsciously she inhaled, lost consciousness and fell from the ladder she was standing on.  Her partner, hearing the crash, quickly came to her aid.  She was barely breathing but a quick first aid assessment showed no apparent broken bones.

Part 3:  Visitors

 

     Imogene Bellamy wasn’t even a member of the staff when this had all started.  She’d been visiting her Mom at lunch.  She’d been working with a company a short distance up the road as part of a work partnership program associated with the local technical college’s Work Placement program.  She’d not seen but smelled a strange metallic scent as a fine silvery mist poured from an overhead ventilation duct.  Neither she nor her mother thought anything of it until her mother got home that evening.

“Mom,” Imogene began with a slight whine in her voice.  “I feel terrible.”

Part 2:  "Human" Resources

    Tammy Rothschild had graduated from the local technical college only five weeks prior.  She’d done very well in the office management course she’d taken and was pleased to be able to give her notice at the dead end job she’d worked in since high school.  TransRepo paid ever so much more and, in a few years time, she’d be able to work her way up and make even more!!

    Her first few days on the front desk were pretty normal.  Aside from having to get another of the office managers to cover for her whenever HR decided she needed to fill in yet another form, it was pretty simple.  The fourth day, she and the other new hires were put through the Corporate Introduction Session.  It covered all kinds of things that her diploma hadn’t covered such as evacuation drills and shelter-in-place drills and where the emergency biosafe areas were.  The trainers made much of the fact that, though such events should never occur, the release of one of the biologically active agents from the secure labs might happen.  They needed to know what to do.  Even if no one ever expected to actually have to do it.

Mertail - Containment Breach 1

Well now, I've got to get more content posted while we're waiting on the next set of voting results.

This week I am very happy to present my first full commissioned story (with illustrations) by Mertail.

So, without further ado (tune in all week for updates) - after all....what's a normal day at TransRepo Industries without a little mishap?

Containment Breach

Part 1:  Release in the Lab

     It started as a normal day in the Biogenetics Lab of TransRepo Industries.  The current project, under way now for nearly two years, was a simple one to describe but fiendishly difficult to implement.  An unexplained, as yet, rise in the number of people needing service dogs with increased capability was fostering feverish research into genetic methods to increase canine intelligence.  The original work had been with virus carriers for the new genetic material.  This created some interesting small steps in the first few months.  The unfortunate problem was that you had to wait for the puppies to be born and mature a bit before you could see the actual effects of your genetic tinkering.  That all changed with the creation of the first DNA compatible nanites.  These microscopic machines, working in tandem, could completely restructure the adult animal based upon the changed DNA that the viruses had introduced into the animal’s cell nucleus.  Instead of waiting for the next generation, you could get good indications immediately (or at least a few days).  Of course, the puppies would be a step beyond that having actually grown up with the modifications and would have the advantage of learning to use the enhancements completely.  Regardless, it did speed research considerably and ensured that the puppies would be good candidates for further enhancement even if they didn’t meet the final requirements.  The results had been so spectacular that some of their canines had doubled their intelligence in only three generations.

Field Trials Interim - Poll

So, we've reached the point where we handle the next poll - and it's up to you to decide which way we go with this.

Obviously we have the possibility of exposing Chief of Security Rhonda McCampbell to JY89BR or HE36YU (right and center characters respectively).  

However, looking at TransRepo Industries recent lines of testing, we have a few other options available:

Exposure to substance from Parallel D4E - no idea what specific effect it'll have on her but we have some previous indications.

Cosmetics Testing - it turns out that just as the Beauty Department is looking for a cheap, rapid means of producing high-grade ambergris, Custom Biologicals may have a solution (of sorts).

Agricultural Operations Support - multiple options available, leave a comment.

Agricultural Production Support - again multiple....if similar options :)

So please feel free to vote, leave feedback, etc.  If you can't see the poll, enable permissions for the site.

And please be ready to put your money where your mouth is on this project - the more donations, the more arts in the sequence!
