Diary Update 2nd December 2020
Added 2020-12-03 03:05:01 +0000 UTC
Hiyo Everybody!
I want to once again thank you all humbly from deep down for your support once more – it’s making such a huge difference to me and is the only reason content is getting made!
Normally I’d have some bonus photomanipulations to show and use as a test for your new login’s that have just gone out but this time I’ll have to move that content back into the month a little bit ¬_¬. I've gotten a few points to go over and explain and seems like a good time for it.
So I’ll do a diary update / last monthly report while I’m here because quite a bit has happened over the last 72 Hrs and a few changes recently people just need to be aware of so lets begin while I'm here.
..:: OUTSTANDING NOVEMBER ART / RL TIMETABLE CHANGE ::..
TL;DR - Time cut, less time for art. Banked up material, experience and determination will overcome!
So I had plans on releasing an image iGAPES & Futanari combo image I’d outlined and am mid way colouring throught and had plans to you all at the end of last month. I was so on target to get it out … and then some more ‘real life’ aspects came in and have changed my timetable last minute. My last day in November got flipped on its head and there just wasn't any time to colour that image.
It's something quite in depth and I don't want to go too much into my other life stuff away from my art but this is a long time coming and had to kick in sometime. Let's just say more responsibilities have come to me and as such time will been taken away from art. It finally happened after all these months of anticipation.
Now this sounds awful and bad, and its not the greatest of news but I'd have a very blessed 2020 (despite the world being somewhat on fire) time wise for art till this point and plan to take what I learnt with over the last few months to be able to speed up this process now I'm more experienced and have a system in place and good methodology for my content.
I had been anticipating this for a few months now and while it's a pain to finally have this put upon me I've gotten my skills up to speed up content but ALSO have banked up quite a few images to CG colour for when time was tighter like this.
So frustrating as it may be I'll work around this issue as best as I can and get work out ASAP to you as always. I'm going to ask for a touch more of your very generous patience as I learn what's the best to organise my time and work life balance while delivering the goods to you all!
I made a goal to create so much art released per month and I've not desire to fail that if I can help it. I'll just be a learning experience and ultimetly / hopefully you won't see any difference on your end!
..:: CHANGED UP SCHEDULES ::..
TL;DR - Delayed art to start. Coming soon as I can!
So I am going to have to change up expected release times of some content, specially to begin. I've gotten the prior mentioned incomplete art in mid production, the manips being delayed and things like the the Gold iGAPES Calender content in mind with this statement. It will come but maybe a bit late compared to usual – sorry in advance ¬_¬
Art just takes time to do and while I have enough time to deliver on my goals I just need to set expectations accordingly and that it might very tight to squeeze it in.
It just means I'll have to make the most of my other time and try and focus on my art while I can – hopefully without burnout. I'll report in with content how things are going but I've hopes I'll be okay if I just get my head down on this.
..:: RECENT ART CREATIVITY ::..
TL;DR - Good stuff made, overflow still to be used to plug holes. Planning!
I also recently had something of a drawing high at the mid / end of last month. Art was being produced while ideas flowed like wine and worked nicely as I put them in with stylus. I've banked up a few ideas which where solid concepts or doodles in that time for gapers and futanari.
It was honestly just what I needed as October seemed to be quite hard going for me for some reason. Sometime you can try and be creative and it doesn't materialise.
I was very heavily influenced last month as you may have guessed with the no nut november / chastity idea but also big clits, wide hips and royal and holy chicks made by other authors. Some of this will be seen this month as I finish them to coloured completion. It seems it doesn't take much for me to be inspired by others when I'm on a creative roll!
So I have this built up pile of work from last month and some incomplete doodles from points in the last year I can go go back too and finish off or CG colour. This makes me somewhat content rich but I would rather not release doodled / outlined only works.
Instead I plan on using my sped up CG skills and get quality content out to you. Again it maybe porn, it's not lost on me, but if I can make it as good as I can, surely what's what you expect on me when you support me and I hate to disappoint.
I also naturally have content like the next phase of the futanari Siobhan to work on, the expected Xmas image to do and other new content lined up also which may take a day or two to produce but am looking forwards to cracking on with this shortly also.
So both the best and worst of times but with a fresh month again I've plans for good and solid material ahead!
..:: GAMES AND OTHER ::..
I could go on about CG techniques I've gotten a told of and reviews of artistic methods but that's very boring, so let's just wrap this up with other bits and pieces.
Firstly; I just backed up my content as I wrote this. I'd be devastated if I lost my art files, I can only imagine you'd feel the same with your important files! DON'T FORGET TO BACKUP! - that's my public service announcement for the day ^^
Also Vtubers, I hate to say it but I've been watching a few clips of them on YT and can see this consuming time and lives – back out while you still can! I wonder how long till some not only hentai like one but a clothed but obvious fuatanai XXX version becomes a thing down the line on a porn hub? Lol. Anyhow very fun to see, just be careful of this damn rabbit (peko) hole! Yubi yubi!
And in more normal stuff let's review what games I've played in case anything special or noteworthy you may enjoy comes up
- Tabletop Simulator – gotta say it still is very versatile and was reminded if you go looking you can find directories to once linking workshop games that may have been removed if you have a look around online. Not saying do that, but something interesting to note all the same right? Locked down can be crap, but with some friends its not as bad.
- Mindustry – Not sure if I mentioned this before but a more accessible Factorio and tower defense game got together and had a baby and this was a result. I really find it very fun and with recent updates maybe worth looking at in the upcoming winter sales sometime?
- Age of Empires 3 Definitive Edition – Love me some RTS and this is nice to play but AoE was never my favourite. Its okay I guess but a bit sloppy (bad at release) in places remake and for the high price I'd caution a buy unless it drops in price myself.
- Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion – Re picked this up after a few month's since last time. I've a love and hate thing with this game and will say while fun it lacks a single player totally and as a space RTS management game goes just be ready to look 8 hours and feel like you achieved so little for so much effort, lol. Mixed bag.
- Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes – Another perfect game to play in lockdown and recommended with a party of 2-4 people. I think this is just so fun and again is a clear recommendation going forwards to connect with people in hard times like now.
No other stand outs other than the always played risk of rain 2, DoW Apocolpyse mod, Slay the Spire games. I played them maybe here and there but mostly focused on my art and I assume till the end of December maybe the same too!
Right I need to sleep and then see about getting this ship a sailing once again when I wake! Thank you all once again for your tremendous support and patience. I will be doing what I can to deliver the good in this rocky month for me ahead and just bear with me while it happens! Please keep safe out there folks and more porn and excessive girls from me very soon! - Cheers, Sius
