Update; no rewards cycle again this month :(

Hey everyone!

I'm sorry to say that there won't be a rewards cycle again this month; I won't be talking your pledges, and I won't be sending out content.

I've been working crunch hours at work this past month, so I've been unable to allocate the time towards my patreon that would be needed. I've got another busy week ahead of me coming up, but I'm hoping after that I'll be able to get back into the patreon routine. So for now I expect to have content for next month; I'll kee...

streaming now

There should also be a video recording if you cant make it

Stream

Hey everyone! A quick heads up that I'll be streaming some dragon growth with Vexorum around 3:00 PM eastern time (thats about 80 minutes form now). I'll post links here once that is set up.

Also as a side note, if you've sent me a note and are waiting to hear back to me, I'll get to it tonight. My apologies for the delay!

Rewards sent!

Hey everyone! Please check your notes, as I just sent out the links for everyone who pledged last month! If you didn't get links, and were charged last month, then please send me a note because a mistake has occured!

If you didn't get a link and you were not charged for last month, then that means you either signed up on or after June 1st, or your pledge was declined. Either way, send me a note and let me know about it. because there can be stuff worked out :)

Also, as a reminder; ...

Update!

Hello everyone!

As I mentioned in the April 30th journal post, this months Patreon will be delayed until the 17th or sooner. There will then be a month where I will have to suspend my patreon account (no charge and no rewards), before rewards will return to normal, being released on the 5th of August. This is due to an erratic schedule in my real life, where I'm working a lot of overtime and need to sacrifice a month and spread the weeks out over three rewards cycles of 5 weeks to make su...

Rewards are out!

Hey everyone! If you signed up before the end of the month, then check  your notes because you should have received links to the rewards! Let me know if you think I have made a mistake.

If you signed up after any day in April, then you will not have been charged and aren't a part of this months rewards cycle (but you will be next month!) But please, send me a note and I'll send you some free content to help tie you over.

For those in the $25 tier;...

Rewards out late Tuesday

Hey everyone!

I've collected most of the rewards for this month, but I'll still need a couple of days to finish them off and document them all, so they will be out Tuesday. My apologies, but life got in the way this weekend and a lot of my time was eaten up by something unforseen. 

As I mentioned, most of tge update was spent on Andres facial morphs, but there is also roughly 11 seconds of dragon growth spread accross two new shots. I didn't finish off the second shot (it kind of gr...

Patreon Update

This month, I've completed all of Andre's facial morph targets, as well as his wing fingers. The latter could use another pass with the weights, but for all intents and purposes, Andre is fully rigged! He plugs in well with the existing animations, so it will not take too much effort switch the rigs over in the existing animations (with the exception of the shots with straps in them, which I will touch on in a bit). This took me a bit over 2 weeks to complete.

I've been animating in...

March Rewards out!

Check your notes, and let me know if you think i have made a mistake with anything! I'll try and sort it out ASAP.

If you joined up on April 1st or later, then you were not charged for March and are not a part of this rewards cycle; You will be a part of next month's. However, if you send me a note, I can give you something to tie you over until then ^^.

Please feel free to give me whatever comments or criticism you would like to share! (No matter how negative). I'd like to keep im...

Rewards sent out tomorrow night

Hey everyone! My apologies; I was really aiming to get everything out tonight but I'll fall a few hours short. I have all the content sorted and am just packaging up the scene files now; but I'll need a few more hours to write up all the WIPS and documentation.

I'll wrap them up tomorrow night after work, so everything should be sent out in around 24 hours.

Thanks everyone!

This months rewards, and the coming month's focus

Hey everyone! This is a journal to let you all know that this months rewards will be a few days late; I'll need the weekend to finish off what I have, and collect all the rewards. My apologies for this! They should be sent out on either Sunday night, or Monday night at the latest.

The main progress I'll be able to show in the rewards was on rigging up Andre's new mesh, which is now almost complete, as well as an extra 23 seconds of MLK animation, with another 8 seconds of existing animation mo...

give feedback on Andre's colour

This is the first colour pass on Andre; it is just the base colours so its rough and there are no fine details yet.

I personally love these colours; but it came back less blue than I was expecting. Considering his legacy, I wanted to know what you all thought! What direction should I take him?

Feel free to share your thoughts outside of these options in the comments ^^

The coming months rewards

Hey everyone! I just wanted to give a quick update for the next months rewards, so you guys will know what to expect with them.

I'm still working on Andre's rig; I underestimated how difficult it has been to plug in upgrades to the rig. I spent another week on it, but in order to get some actual animation done, I've moved back onto MLK for now. I've animated another 8 seconds so far, and I'm aiming to have the sequence finished before sending rewards out.

So this coming months rew...

Doing a stream soon

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of notice, but I wasnt certain this would be happening earlier.

I'll be doing an animation stream soon at https://picarto.tv/acheroth, talking with spectrumshift, if you wanted to check that out ^^. It will just be me but I'll have someone to talk to ^^

Are you accepting of delays in me sending out rewards?

Hey everyone!

This month I want to ask some questions about how I run my patreon. I'll keep them short and focused, since detailed feedback can take time. If you wanted to expand on any topic, then feel free to do so! I appreciate all feedback, as I know that it takes time and effort for you to share it. 

The first question I wanted to ask was regarding reward delays. When planning a month, I always aim to release a decent amount of new on the 5th. But things inevitably come up ...

Rewards sent!

Hello everyone, I have sent out rewards for everyone who was charged at the end of last month. Sorry about being a week later than the 5th; the extra work was spent on Andre, so hopefully you guys think it was worth the extra wait ^^

If you didn't receive a note with links to the rewards, or you think I made a mistake, then please note me and I'll try and sort it out ASAP.

Please note that if you joined AFTER February, then you wouldn't have been charged your pledge, and wouldn't h...

Patreon rewards will be sent out tomorrow

Hey everyone. Sorry to have to do this, but the rewards will be delayed another day.

As a quick update, I got Andre's model back last Sunday. It is an early delivery so he's not finished yet; it is just a model and a normal map at this stage. But that is enough for me to re-rig and get back to animating with next month. It took me a longer than expected, but he'll be in a quick little WIP video this month to show off his new scaly skin.

I'll probably have all the content done by ton...

Next months rewards!

I'll be sending out rewards for this month in March, but they will be about a week late (looking at the 10th to 11th). The reason for the delay is that I lost a week in February, which was already a short month, and I want to get a bit more content out.

So far, I've got around 15 seconds of new animation for MLK, as well as some animation for a new intro (and there has been some great progress from a few others as well ^^). But what else I add will depend on whether I finally get Andre ba...

Rewards sent!

If you signed up before the end of January, then check your notes as you should have a link to your rewards! If you don't have a note and think you should, then please note me and I'll sort it ASAP!

If you joined up in Febrary, then you were not a part of January's pledge cycle, and wouldn't have been charged or be sent a note. However don't dispair! Send me a note and I'll link you to some goodies to tie you over!

Thanks everyone for your support! You're not only enabling me to in...

Rewards will be out tonight

Hey everyone! Just a quick update; I'll have the rewards sent out tonight. I pretty much have all the content done (I'm just gonna let it render for the day for one WIP video, and I have to package up the scene files), so its just some of the write-ups left for me to do when I come home from work. It usually takes me a few hours to do that, so links will probably be sent around midnight New York time.

Thanks everyone for your support this month, I hope you enjoy the content tonight <3

Rewards coming out this month :)

Hey everyone! Some quick updates; I've broken it up into groups so that you know what will pertain to you :)

1.) All supporters:
I'll be following through with the rewards cycle this month; it will mainly consist of another ~20 seconds of NSFW MLK; but there will also be some other progress in the WIPS.

2.) New Supporters: 

I just realized that I didn't switch my account over to monthly at the start of the month. Please...

No december rewards cycle

Hey everyone; this is a post to let everyone know that you will not be charged for your pledge at the end of the month.

Because I ended up going overseas for a few weeks this month, I haven't been able to make enough content for a rewards cycle this month, and I have disabled the payments today. I have still made some progress; I will end this cycle with about 4 more seconds of animation, but that is not enough of a reward for me to charge you guys. So that will be rolled into January's reward...

Image readme uploaded

Sorry about the delay; I accidentally neglected to upload it last night.

whoops!

someone has pointed out that I neglected to upload the read me for the . I'll do that once so get home in 7 hours or so. My apologies!

I will also respond to comments and notes then.

Rewards out!

If you had a payment processed, you should have received a note with the links to the rewards. Thanks so much for your support <3.

If you have EVER made a payment and never had rewards sent, then please note me! I have noticed that I somehow received a few dollars for months where I sent no reward. I'm not notified when money is processed from an individual, so please let me know if this was you!

Also, if you signed up after December 1st, you won't have received a note with link...

Quick update

Hey everyone!

I'm just posting a quick update regarding the recent fee changes; I'm working crunch hours, so I haven't had a time to go through the announcement and changes properly (and won't for a week or so since I am working through this weekend too); but from what I have been able to gather, it all looks pretty awful. A patreocolypse, if you will.

I'm not interested in 'taking home more of my pledges' by having you charged more. That makes no sense. It's all the same pie. I will p...

November rewards coming in a few days!

Sorry to be late again everyone, but will need a couple more days to collate the rewards content. I've completed my animation goals and gotten almost all of the videos rendered out, but it takes me a while to edit them and write the readmes, so expect them around the end of the week.

Please note me if you're unhappy about the delay and would like a refund.

My streams

Hey Everyone! One of the things I've been trying to do over the past couple of months is get back into streaming regularily. I've been trying to pair up with other artists, and its been a lot of fun streaming with the likes of Vex, JamesFoxes and Tyco.

However, its been said by many that the live streams are not watchable because of incessant buffering. Also, I am always unsure on how interesting the actual streaming content is to watch (which is a big reason why I'm trying to stream and t...

On the November Rewards

Some of you may have noticed I switched payments off for last month, and you have not been charged for your pledge. This is because I again didn't get enough time to make enough content again in October. I'll be switching it back on for November, as I am anticipating enough progress to make some worthwhile rewards out of :)

I apologies for the lack of content and for neglecting my social medias the past month.  Work has been the most intense it has ever been for me, so I've fallen be...
