First post, update and what's to come!

Hello! So.. I'd like to talk about what I have in mind for this page and for my future works!

I've been quite inactive since around 2018, [a little before the adult ban on tumblr] and in this time I've been thinking about what I want to do moving forward. 

Here's a few things I'm clear on:

•  I don't want to separate my sfw and nsfw content anymore.
• I want to make content aimed at a larger audience [rather than commissions that are created for a single individual or small group of people.]
• I want to shift focus towards 3D stuff for now [Character modeling and animation].
• I want to offer a roster of characters for us to play with.
• I want to collaborate and reach out more in big and small ways, from implementing design or prompt ideas from my followers to collaborating on a bigger project with other creators or even a small team.
• I am at my happiest when I'm feeling productive and when I'm sharing content with like-minded people.
• I am at my most creative when I don't need to worry about how I'm gonna pay the bills [and having to focus on that instead of on my creative projects]
• I need to find a central hub where I feel secure [that the page will stay there for a while], it's easy to access and can be updated comfortably, and where I can either post my content or have up-to-date links to that content. I'm not sure where that is yet, perhaps the only way is to create a website. Or hopefully a new social media site will come soon! [Fanexus please.. I'm looking at you!].

3D instead of 2D?

I've been having a lot of fun learning this new craft, it's very different and I'm still making baby steps, but it's a journey I'm enjoying and that I'd like to pursue!

This doesn't mean I won't draw anymore. I just don't want it to be the focus:

My motivation and love for drawing took a big hit recently and drawing is a bit of a struggle at the moment. I believe the only way to nurture it back to what it was is to remove the weight I've placed on it, so I'd like it to stay as more of a hobby for a while.

Right now I can't rely on drawing to keep myself afloat, I constantly feel uncertain and uncomfortable because it feels like an unstable stand, I feel it and I see it in each drawing, in the lack of files on my monthly folders... and it's frustrating and it affects me greatly, I want to build it up again, once it feels more steady to stand on, I might feel like I can use it again as a support.

What content to expect?

I will make 3D models! And I will also learn 3D animation.

I'd like to make content mostly of OCs and FanOCs [To avoid copyright strike or fandom purity culture], and I plan on showing you what I've got so far! But I also really want to create characters from suggestions! I've been thinking that it would be really fun to build something with you! Characters that evolve little by little, post by post, suggestion by suggestion!

I'm currently starting my roster with an Asura and a Sylvari, my main player characters from GW2! [since it's my current obsession]. I am using them to learn modeling, rigging and eventually animation!

Once they are done and we have played a bit with them, I'd like to open a poll for the next models to work on. I can offer a few of my own characters already [which I'd like to present to you!] I have a variety, from fantrolls to humans to furries! 

What is the plan for this Patreon page?

As you have seen from the description, I intend for this page to stay as a tip jar [single tier] for some time, this will last until I've finished working on my pending commissions! I definitely plan on finishing those and I have a queue that will last until November/December 2020! So.. for the remainder of this year.

If after that I feel comfortable with stopping commissions, I will then present new tiers! I hope by then I've made enough progress in my 3D journey that I can offer insightful WIPs and actual content like Pinups or even animations? [might be a little too ambitious that last one haha]. 

But I also want to clean up all my drawings in my computer, from 2015 to the present year, and offer access to a MEGA Archive where it's all available! [ later on I'd like to include sketchbooks as well! but scanning and cleaning those will take some more time]. This archive would be updated monthly as well.

Another reward I'm thinking of is a monthly sketchdump page, character[s] and themes being Patron suggested and voted for!

I want to offer monthly rewards [like pinups and sketches] that will support longer ongoing projects [like animations and character/environment modeling]. And I'd be very happy to hear more ideas and suggestions!

I want to keep my content public for the most part, just some extra thank you's for my Patrons who believe in my and support my endeavors! 

That's it.

This is my plan for now, this is where I'm at and what I'd like for the future.

If you happen to believe in this vision and in me.... and are able to, please consider pledging.

I'll do my best to make you proud!
