Update: Hobby tables

October 19, 2022 17 Replies

Six new tables for different activities were added as foreground effects!

This update was something I planned to do for a long time, because it will help to personalize your profile pictures even more with your favourite hobbies. The tables in the foreground are packed with a lot of different things, and I hope you like them! If you enjoy video games or just want your character to work on a computer this is now possible. But what about a trading card game or a jigsaw puzzle? They are included as well. Then there is this tasty kitchen scene for cooks. Of couese an artist’s table with colored pencils and a sketch book should not be missing. And finally I’ve been drawing a table with books, notes and a big cup of coffee for all of you who stay up late to read, write and learn. Every scene comes with custom colors for certain elements.

Christmas Special 2021

December 1, 2021 85 Replies

Every day from December 1st to December 24th a new surprise update is waiting for you! Last year I took a break because of the relaunch, but now the beloved annual Christmas Specials are back. For 24 days I will draw all kinds of new backgrounds, clothes and other objects to give you more possibilities to build your pictures. The old Christmas Specials can be found here.

And the best part is: YOU can request new items for these updates! Upload them to the Wish Voting gallery and if I like them they will appear there. Then everybody can discuss them. Popular ideas have a high chance to appear in the Christmas Special. But I will also include surprises from older requests which are not in the gallery.

I hope you enjoy the updates! Of course I am happy about feedback, so tell me about your favourites. 🙂

Update: new skin & old places

January 11, 2021 2 Replies

Happy new year! After the successful relaunch and your positive feedback I am super motivated to include more items. So let’s start with this huge update:

24 NEW skin related items (more freckles, beauty marks, wounds, scars, body hair, tears…)
31 places from the old SP-Studio are back, so this category is now complete
labels for the buttons to recolor items were added by Lars to avoid confusion

The skin items are a special gift to my Patreon supporters. They can be found in the “wounds” and “more skin related items” categories and are marked with yellow stars. Soon you can expect more updates to bring back items from the old SP-Studio – and join the new picture contest!

Update: Science Fiction

The Science Fiction update is online! It comes with these new items:

places: cyberpunk city, spaceship bridge, crop circles, wormhole
shirts: a uniform inspired by Star Trek and a made up Sci-Fi uniform
stuff: U.F.O., laser blaster and force field
skin: cyborg lines

Apart from the Star Trek uniform I wanted to keep the objects not too specific for fans of certain franchises, so none of them are copied from movies or videogames. This was kinda difficult for me, because I am not good at inventing weapons. 😉 But now I am satisfied with the results and I hope you like them as well. Thank you for you patience regarding this update. I needed a break after my grandpa passed away last month, but I feel better now.

And I started streaming again! The next Twitch livestream is scheduled for next Monday at 16:00 UTC (18:00 CET).

Update: Rooms

January 31, 2018 2 Replies

While I am preparing the new version of the SP-Studio there are still updates for the current version. This one will be useful for everybody:
Nine indoor backgrounds with different wallpaper designs were included today! How about a kid’s room or wallpapers inspired by the 70s, 80s or victorian times? Two designs are based on famous movies and tv shows: Sherlock and the Shining. I tried to keep the rest of them as neutral as possible so they could be used for all kinds of pictures.
The topic for this update was chosen by my 5$+ Patreon supporters in a poll. I hope you like the new backgrounds. Oh, and a quick reminder regarding the currently running SP-Studio picture contest: Today is the last day for voting, so share some hearts with your favorites!

The 10th annual Christmas Special has started! Wow, I am doing this thing for 10 years now… But for those of you who don’t know it yet: I will surprise you with 24 daily updates until Christmas. This means new clothes, hairstyles, backgrounds or any other item for the SP-Studio. This blog post and the front page will be updatet every day and I will keep you informed on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter as well. So make sure to come back to see what’s new. 🙂 And of course I am happy about any feedback. To be honest a comment is way better than a like because it’s something personal and I can work with it. So if you like an update or want to request something special for the future – feel free to write a comment! I usually choose the updates from requests of the past, the Wish Voting Gallery in the forum and my own ideas. The first update is a pet raven and this was a wish by contest winner legobasher.
