Poll! The Best Render of 2024
🕑 Added 2024-12-31 13:52:21 +0000 UTCSo I've made a selection based on what I think are the most hard-hitting renders I've done this year. These are renders that for some reason or another made me go "holy shit" when I first saw them in the viewport, and that I just had to render out as a result. They're the renders that inspire me to make new sets, minisets, fill my head with ideas, or are just unbelievably hot for one reason or another.
Your selection might be different than mine, but I think when we're talking best render, we're also talking about renders where part of what I appreciate about them is what it took to make them. Some renders are simply too easy to set up, and they don't meet my standard. They might be fun shots to look at, but they're nothing special the way I see things.
So, all of these shots involve some measure of artistry as well. And that's what I think makes them the best selection for a poll like this.
As we go through them, I will also tell you flat out which one is my actual favourite. Do not let that influence your vote! Vote for the one that you like best. Polls also help me figure out what you guys like, so stick with your own feelings.
Let's go through the shots!
1. Kayla and Marcella - Oversized Cocks
This shot was absolute gold to me. I had upsized their cocks for this miniset because it just seemed kinda fun to me to go even larger than normal. But it often takes a certain angle to really make you appreciate the size of something. For me, it was this shot.
The way the girls have their cocks stuck together, standing out from their bodies like this, rock hard, wet, glistening, it was just a completely surreal angle. I love dickgirl x dickgirl content, and it's precisely because you can get wild imagery like this from it. Everything about this shot works - the depth of field, the lighting (warm on the underside, cold from above), the specularity, the way the background frames them perfectly, it's just great.
2. Kayla and Marcella - Strings
I've done a lot of cumshots with strings this year. Once it really clicked with me how to make them, I just started working them into everything. The eye-opener for me was the Kayla solo cumshot miniset from 2023, and this one was a natural evolution of that.
What I love about this shot is the way it's just all about the mess. Two massive, sloppy cumcocks that are too spent to stay upright, but the sheer volumes of cum they've been spilling string together to remind us their frotting debauchery mere moments prior.
It's even more erotic because of the background, and this is a way I often try to frame shots but it worked particularly well in this one: there's a sense of incredible freedom about nudity in a large space. Maybe that's just a me thing, but I always feel like the bigger the cock, the larger the space, the hotter it is. Genitalia are something we normally conceal, and two dickgirls taking theirs out and absolutely dominating the space they're in to the extent that they feel comfortable making such a mess together just adds an incredible layer of eroticism to me.
Isn't the mental side of erotica just the weirdest when you think about it?
3. Breanna - Summertime Doll
This is really just a classic pinup pose, but I love it. Over the years I think I've tweaked Breanna's body to perfection. This has also really kinda been the year of Breanna, even though she's been very prominent in a lot of my sets since ONS-ACE. Her tits in combination with her waist are just killer and this shot shows it off so perfectly.
It also suggests that Breanna is just so incredibly satisfied with who she's become. Because even though there's obviously a camera in the scene to render the shot, I like to think that no camera is implied. She's just enjoying herself, posing herself to help her imagination along as she imagines her own body in a bird's eye view. She's an absolute narcissist, and the idea of someone being such a slut that her own appearance is enough to keep her in a near-constant state of arousal is super hot to me.
4. Nikki - Perfect Little Minx
This was the pose where I figured out who Nikki was. Sometimes it takes an outfit. That's what made me mentally differentiate her from Breanna. Where Breanna's a brat and an insatiable slut, Nikki's just a perfect little minx. A bouncy blonde fuckbunny, but with a sweet side!
This outfit didn't win the outfit poll I did for her back in February, since you guys chose the variant with black heels and a tighter variant of this top, but this one was my personal favourite. She doesn't need a bra! Zenith's all about perfection, baby. And that's what makes her love this top.
The way the fabric drapes around the sides of her breasts but pulls tight between them makes her feel very aware of the physics of her new body. And with that little elastic band at the bottom, she can just pull it straight up and expose her tits to for anyone to play with! Nikki wants to feel like a cute little thing, and the contrast between her loose top and her waist-clasping leather pants makes her conscious of the shape of her body more than anything.
5. Tatiana - Back Seam Stockings
As much as I love Nikki's outfit of the above shot, I think this is the most erotic outfit I've designed this year. Breanna's in this shot, but Tatiana's who it's all about. Aside from the ombre effect in her hair, which I think is a very welcome change of pace from the default raven black we know, the combination of purple with black stockings is just absolutely killer.
There are few things sexier on a woman than back-seam stockings, too. But these particular stockings are something else. The way the fabric interacts with the light just makes them look so enticing to touch. Almost every single shot in this set where we got a clear view of her entire body was a shot that had me go "goddamn".
The idea of this entire set was to do lighting in the style of late 90's, early 2000's porn shoots, and I think it came out incredibly well. The scenery, the warm and cold tones, the colours used, it's all exactly as I envisioned it. Tatiana reminds us once again why she's an absolute stunner and a mainstay of the Lust Unleashed cast.
6. Tatiana and Breanna - Fragile Delicacy
This picture is peak femininity to me. The way Breanna curves her back to lean into Tatiana, pushing her shoulders back and lowering her arms to allow Tati easy access to her breasts, the way her necklace shimmers in the light, the way her head is angled slightly down and the way her eyelashes emphasise the fragility of her features. I love this image because it sort of answers a question I've been asking over the years - are femininity and fragility inherently intertwined? And I'm starting to believe that the answer to that question, at least in terms of erotica, is yes.
This picture also creates a bit of a moment unto its own. You can almost sense how this isn't just a transition from one fuckpose to another, but an erotic experience in its own right. Tatiana is meeting Breanna for the first time. She's seen a lot of beautiful bodies in her life, but here she gets to admire these beautiful breasts and this perfectly soft skin for the first time. She's starting to get ideas, and those ideas definitely aren't delicate, but for now she's handling Breanna's body with her.
Breanna's completely in her element. Completely the center of another beautiful woman's attention. An image can say more than a thousand words, and I think this one does. This would've been my favourite render of the year, if it hadn't been for making the Imperium bonus set over the last two weeks. Which I think also says a lot about the value of explicit vs implicit. Cum is great! But it's definitely not a necessary ingredient to an incredibly erotic image.
7. Tatiana - Cumdrenched Titfuck
This really has to be one of the best cumshot renders I've ever done, and definitely the best titfuck I've ever rendered. There's so much I love about this render that I hardly know where to begin.
Let's start with the non-obvious. The lighting sells this. Again, cold and warm tones. That's just a staple of lighting. But the way they diffuse across the skin of both girls is an absolute home-run because I tweaked the skin shaders until I got exactly the look I wanted, which took a fair bit of time to get right. Obviously this was all done prior to full set production as you'll notice the girls look consistent throughout, but it especially paid off in this shot.
Breanna's tits look so perfectly soft here. It's almost impossible not to imagine what it would feel like to stick your dick between them, if you had one as big as Tatiana's. Combined with those perfect nipples and the way Tati holds on to them from the underside while her hip is angled slightly forward, makes you feel like she's really thrusting into them with zeal.
Then there's the fact that we can't see Breanna's face in this. It's almost as if the individual is not a factor. This is all about Tatiana's lust for a pair of breasts. Most times with titfucking scenes, the cock gets stuck in from below and we also have to take the expressions of the girl being fucked into account. Here, Breanna's just being used. She almost doesn't matter. Which makes it even hotter because we know her well enough at this point to understand that that's exactly how she wants it too.
And then the cum. The shader's exactly right, it interacts with the light the way I want it to, and the way it's all one single integrated mesh means it has a really consistent look without seams anywhere that cause reflections to angle to lighting consistency to jump in quality from one spot to another. Add to this a bit of depth of field to really sell the size of Tati's cock, with the focuson where Tati's experiencing the majority of her sensations, and I think this is a shot that very easily lets us get into the mindset of both girls despite not showing their faces at all.
This one is without a doubt my favourite render of the year.
So, which of these six stands out the most to you? I'm very curious! Is the poll gonna lean hardcore or softcore? Time to find out :D

Hard to resist Tati, Bree, and the stocking pose. But damn! They are all incredible
TheDude3DX
#1 is definitely glorious.
TheDude3DX
But what did you really vote, ultimately? :D
TheDude3DX
#2 really had me go back to it a number of times just to look at the obscenity of it lol.
TheDude3DX
Part of the fun of this job is being unable to decide whether I love a pair of pretty tits or a big futa dick more lol. All the girls I make are well endowed in either case! But really a set like Imperium is just such fun to make because I don't have to answer the question, I can just do both :P But I'll keep this in mind! Anyone want me to make a tits-focused set?
Joe Johnson
So hard to pick but have to go with 1 just because of the massive cock worship vibes.
Jojo Star
I like to see people's faces when they fuck. Also, I prefer the sight of a great pair of tits to the sight of a big dick. So n°6 all the way ! (although I admit you make really convincing cum !)
Garethan
That's really hard to pick just one. As a fan of huge cum-loads: 2 is my favored, directly followed by 7 and 4. Nikki looks just fucking awesome.

Damn - not an easy choice at all! I just vote 'yes'!!
