why coloring is hard (or how I learned to stop complaing and love the blog post)

It just is. That is the post! Enjoy this teaser. 

(not the actual colors that it will be in the final pic but I alwas think hiding/editing some layers like this makes for a good teaser)

Just kidding. Anyway hello everyone! Nice to see some new supporters, and happy to still have so many of you here even though I'm pretty slow at this whole Patreon content thing. Once again I appreciate your supports! I really do T__T! As you can see I am hard at work coloring this thing which in hindsight is more ambitious than I previously anticipated, and doing this while holding down real life is nothing if not.. challenging, but I will get it done of course - and it will look good (I hope). That is always one of the things I keep in mind while making pieces; not just paying tribute to another style, but also making it look as good as I can *and* finding ways to be true to my own variation of said style. Oh and also because I to like to see women shrink out of clothing, y'know? 

Recently I have posted some polls that I see you have all answered. Both of them on here and twitter are the same of course. An overwhelming amount of people on twitter would rather see fully colored images, but of course that is the initial appeal of what I draw is it not? I am not going to feign ignorance to the fact that I am essentially a student to the style Toyogub, and I am willing to wager a lot of people are following me not just because of the content - but also because of a certain nostalgia. Who could forget there first time clumsily typing in something like "female small clothes" or "shrinking woman big boobs" into a search engine years ago and stumbling upon the Koonago Factory? I used to think- before I used the internet- that I was a true weirdo with a truly strange fetish.. Pretty much all alone, and could definitely not tell anyone, let alone discuss such things or create content! It is exciting how much size stuff has -forgive the pun- *grown* over the years. And hopefully it grows more! 

Ah that got a little of track, back to the poll. The whole point is of course to see what people would prefer to see. Not that I would slave myself solely to just what any one person wants (a main factor as to why I am hesitant to do comms or request) but I wanted to get a little bit more of an idea of 1). What draws most of my followers and patrons in, and 2). Just how patient is everyone? Apparently most are very patient! oo; ^^; This is interesting news to be sure. I will act accordingly and keep on my same path. But along with that expect bonus things for you the Patrons. As to how far/many bonus things I am capable of doing while also getting at least one or two pictures done a month, well that remains to be seen (I want to do more and more, but im just one person and burn out is real I have discovered 〔´∇｀;)
So with that in mind; I still do intend to add more perks for both patron tiers - but im still milling over what the current highest tier should get *along* with what I can feasibly do. I would hate to say things like "make some request, ill make you cool custom blah blah - or Im gonna make a video game!!" ...and simply not deliver. So for now the $10 tier is still just extra support for me, and I really really really really appreciate that!! (ﾉ´ヮ`)ﾉ*: ･ﾟ

tl;dr I thank all of you for continued support, I will do my best, trying to think of new stuff for the future contents and you are all awesome! ヽ(∀° )人( °∀)ノ
