STATUS UPDATE!
Added 2020-04-03 08:35:06 +0000 UTCHey there, how are yah?
been a while since I've done one of these and personally it feels late.
so lets get started with the important stuff.
Changes: You might have noticed a few things missing and added on some roles.
Also some goals that were removed. to be clear the "animation a month goal" wasn't removed due to me refusing to do it, it was due to the workload.
Each month is a new batch of chibis and sketch requests, and being that I wanna still be able to produce my own original content I need to free up my hands and cut back on larger projects. though if I can make a comparison I wanna get back to comics cause as cool as animating is, if i make a mistake in a comic i can simple erase it while in animation 1 janky frame breaks the chain and has me rethinking the whole project which it's been incredibly frustrating.
with that said...
- Tsuchinoko rewards
NSFW WIPs included
~I'm no saint and can't work on something clean when i'm commissioned to draw smut so often so to compensate you should be allowed to see the kink work in its processing state.
- Basilks rewards
unchanged
- Wyrms rewards
5% discount on commissions
~noticed that not everyone is gonna wanna chibi every other month so to sweeten the deal I'll save you some coin on custom projects.
- World's Serpent rewards
Bi monthly chibis can now be nsfw, includes sex or mild blood/violence.
~ofcourse I shouldn't have to specify that violence and sex shouldn't be mixed, and out right gore is outta the question. but cartoon gore like a character holding up the head of an enemy from a videogame like a trophy, showing your character with some battle damage or slicing through/beating the shit outta an anon is ok.
Additional 10% discount on commissions
~to sweeten the deal a little more sense chibi's had to be moved to a bi monthly status.
- Couatl tier rewards
animations per month removed; replaced with an optional custom emote requests.
~It was already a big ask but forcing myself to do it and making my todo list longer wasn't a smart idea, I'll be finishing those animations that have been requested though, to make good on my word it will take a while since I feel like I should take time to work on original content.
Plans: I am dead set on finishing Flying Pressed, personally I still think its kinda funny and I know the server wants to see how it wraps up.
For safety reasons the final page will only be on my discord [patreon_exclusives] channel along with a Zip File with all the pages to download if you want from now on.
You should have an invite sent to you when you joined.
it's annoying I know but it's a safety measure I'm forced to take sense Patreon's policy on nsfw and dealing with theft is not helping the creators that need this content to make a living.
Along with that My birthday is coming and I wouldn't be able to do a sketch stream for the month of may ;however I will be giving double the chibis this month to make up for it. This will be the 5th annual BoxRush and I'm playing around with some Ideas as we speak, however it's nutts how many awesome people I've met this year and seem to be meeting more as the days go by.
It's a hard decision to only pick 3 this year but I gotta make use outta the time I got. Commissions are coming in and I need to make sure I have money just incase something happens to me during the outbreak, cause I'm only insured for my mouth, I can't see a doctor for even a check up yet. So I'm playing it safe for now till whole thing blows over, I'm surprised some of you haven't lowered your tiers or left to save money on your own...I can't express how grateful I am for that and I wish I said something sooner to let you know how much it means to me that you're still here.
OH there is one thing I have thought of doing which is something I'm only offering to patrons right now, so you know how my comics usually have some facely beef cake as a footstool for my Amazons to bounce on every once in a while?
Well thanks to Roadie, Lunis, Kimba, and Sheepy; I'm thinking of adding a benefit to have Patron characters to be featured in comics or personal pieces when I'm in the mood to get lewd but also bored of tentacles.
These don't have to be male characters either, we can get the ladies involved as well, don't think anyone would complain.
I'm still working out the bugs of it, maybe make a Voting system "pray to the goddess" you want for that month and I'll make pics of her showing the goods and you get to point at the screen to your friends and say "THERE I AM THAT'S ME" getting absolutely throttled.
I have a long list of women that I haven't drawn in a while and would love to get back to them, I feel doing this will give us both what we want at the end.
Just need to figure out a schedule for it and what tier gets it, something to ponder about, so if you have any ideas let me know.
Closing Statement:
The world's slowly dying, the cracks in our system have never been wider, our leaders [in the U.S.] are trying to convince the common people that it's better to die for the economy; while sitting on their treasure trove of money in their ivory castles safe from the infection.
It makes no sense that you guys are still supporting me with this all happening...I can't thank you enough for your concern and kindness through these past few weeks, the emotions are overwhelming and I'm not sure if what I'm doing is enough to show how much I love you all for it.
Thank you, thank you all so much for helping me feed my family and keeping my home. I owe you the world on a platter for this level of dedication and hope you're all doing well and staying safe at this time, Its my top priority to make sure no matter what happens you all are protected through this crisis. It really feels like the world is gonna spiral out because of this virus, and i can only hope for all your safety, hope you are still have your jobs, hope your family members and loves are ok and hope you're doing everything to keep yourself clean.
I love you people, please...stay safe out there.
