My settings and characters (some info)
Added 2023-12-05 13:13:59 +0000 UTCI realized that most of what I create stays in my head, and that I need to at least explain why I don't want to draw some characters naked/together with other characters/in a certain context.
All of my characters are separated into different settings, and some of them were supposed to appeal to a general audience. So, I plan to heavily rework some of the characters that I drew in a too revealing manner, so that they no longer associate with NSFW content, and I can comfortably create comics/novels "for everyone" in the future. After all, people and organizations are extremely sensitive to this topic, and it constantly causes problems :/ Now I have two specific settings, created purely for 18+ themes, and that's where Alisa, Helga, and some others will inhabit now!
I work on all the settings from time to time, adding details to the worlds, developing characters, outlining the story plan, but unfortunately, N-city and The Sleepy Lake have just been stagnant for years because all the time goes into NSFW projects, work on which brings helps me make living off art... Well, maybe when there's enough quality work, I'll create a separate crowdfunding for these ideas so dear to my heart :)
And the last setting, Mabuti, I started inventing only recently, and haven't drawn anything in it yet, but there's definitely a lot of room for all sorts of... unconventional ideas! ;) Thank you for your interest!

I'll consider this ^^

2023-12-20 09:12:35 +0000 UTCI can see that, I guess I always assumed that Alina was one of your characters.

2023-12-13 19:15:43 +0000 UTC"There is no point in using my erotic characters in "general" projects" Well I personally think, that if some characters from the same setting are NSFW and you could use them there in SFW setting, then it probably shouldn't matter that much. In other words, if you'd like to use NSFW characters, you could use them in SFW way. Like if there will be more story with Vera (I'd like it) who is SFW, I think that characters as Helga still can appear here, ofcourse in SFW way. Because I really love artists, who loves their characters and make stories with them, develop their personalities. And being drawn naked probably shouldn't be the only personal trait to have. So some SFW interaction may happen. No nudes of Vera. And than, separately, why not some adult fun with Helga and Eugene? But ofcourse this is your art and you can do WHATEVER you want. I just wanted to respectfully say my opinion. Huray for more stories

2023-12-13 18:46:13 +0000 UTCYeah, she belongs to a different person and I want full control on my characters. I replaced her and her sister with similar little foxes.

2023-12-13 16:53:14 +0000 UTCOriginally, yes. I'm still thinking though. There's both no pint in trying to use my erotic characters in "general" projects, neither stopping drawing erotic artworks of them. So, likely, all the old characters will be moved to the NSFW setting, and I'll create brand new ones for my SFW projects. Gotta update this thing when I'm done

2023-12-09 20:53:13 +0000 UTCOk so... That rework is ofcourse fine, at the end that's beauty of having your own little world. You can change it if you want. But I still have to ask. Originally Helga and Eugene were part of N-city, weren't they? In some pictures we could see Helga bully Vera. And in Eugene's Reward at the end of the comics he is speaking to Martzel. That's also from where the picture of Martzel is taken. So... not anymore?

2023-12-07 10:25:34 +0000 UTCYou make me feel better about myself for having so many characters. Lol. I just keep writing them, but still have yet to put them to paper! Very exciting though because I've been slowly building my own little galaxy! Multiple worlds across a few different systems, all with a different aesthetic and level of technology, and lots of lore. The idea is to tell stories through the images I create. It will be exciting to see your creation come to life alongside mine! Here's a link to my folder with all my planets, if anyone is interested: https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/fortunepayback/folder/1229651/Galaxy-References

2023-12-07 09:30:21 +0000 UTCAcctually. To me the story of Vera was never about romance. It was about mental health survival. She and Edgar both went trough hell in that school, the bullies were so fucking cruel and the classmates so cowardly and apathetic. They suffered long and gard but they made it. They got out and now they can rebuild their lives. They're not perfect, Edgar started smoking and I'm sure both are still plauged by memories but they can start now on the path of happiness. I think that's the true story, and it's one that can be followed trough both SFW and NSFW. I'd love to see what they do day to day to be happy. Tea, long baths, food, work, masturbation. That to me is where I'd take the story while still keeping it wholesome. But as always it is up to you. I will keep supporting you no matter what story you choose but this would mean alot to me since it's very similar to what I went trough.

2023-12-06 11:32:57 +0000 UTCPersonally I would love that. I understand it must hurt but I personally don't aee her sexuality to be anything to be aahamed off or shun. She's wholesome, she has a life, and most lives contain sex. One can still be innocent while being sexually active. She could still have heavy romance or wholesomeness vibes, infact that's what I think makes her so attractive. A wholesome romantic who exudes positive energy. Understand what I mean? If sex is part of life and part of art she should be involved in it because she is art and on some level life.

2023-12-06 11:06:53 +0000 UTCYeah I haven't done much about it yet
Iskra
2023-12-06 09:19:52 +0000 UTCI always felt bad drawing NSFW of her because she was initially created to express my romantic feelings. I think I'll have to rework a lot about my characters though. Most likely I have to create a completely new SFW character similar to Vera and leave that old design for NSFW because there are a few artworks like that already

2023-12-06 09:19:19 +0000 UTC16+ means naked yes
Iskra
2023-12-06 09:15:13 +0000 UTCI hope that we will have the pleasure of seeing the lovely cat Laura and her friends Mai and Wilma again (and naked). for NSFW I'm happy to see your latest girls created in this category, as well as Kaylina and Alisa :) they are among my favorites.

2023-12-05 16:51:57 +0000 UTCI really want to respect iskra's wishes but I love Vera too much. She's just such a perfect character. It's a bloody waste.
Kapitan
2023-12-05 15:24:02 +0000 UTCI'm also a bit sad Vera won't get any more NSFW, but I wholly respect the creator's desires, and frankly given how many A-holes will snub NSFW works in the industry (look at how Patreon's become due to the puritan twits taking over), it's a wise idea to separate characters and works to avoid problems.

2023-12-05 15:21:52 +0000 UTCI'm guessing that 16+ means nudes but no sex. I could be wrong that's just a guess.

2023-12-05 14:37:46 +0000 UTCMabuti does not look very attractive (yet?)
Eugenok
2023-12-05 14:12:07 +0000 UTCReally sad that Vera won't become NSFW, but atleast it won't be as teasing? Prehaps we can have some intresting and wholesome stories out of N-city.
Kapitan
2023-12-05 13:27:30 +0000 UTCDoes that mean I'll never see Mai naked again?

2023-12-05 13:18:54 +0000 UTCThis looks lovely! It gives your characters more richness. I'm excited to see where this goes!
