Merry Christmas, kiddos!

Hope your holidays are fun and that you all get what you asked Santa for! (Unless you were naughty, in which case I hope he gives you exactly what you need)

Art should be coming in the next couple days!

December YCH shenanigans!

Hey kids,

Sooo my bookkeeping here is apparently sloppy. I wound up announcing that it was Kit Wolf's turn for December's animation YCH without remembering that Kit had already had a go during jocks vs. nerds month!

He'll still get the new YCH because the error was mine, but in the interest of fairness and making sure new people are getting turns each month, I'm also opening the YCH up to the next Daddy on the list, too.

Next up on the list is Daddy Horse! Hit me up with a c...

December YCH announcements!

Thanks for being so patient, kiddos!

This month, it's Kit Wolf's turn for the animation YCH, and it's Seth Iova's turn for the sticker!

Send me a message here with reference for the character you'd like to use, and let me know whether you want this month's animation (Santa spanks) / sticker (a soggy present), or if you'd prefer one of the prior month's offerings instead.

To everybody else, stay tuned as all these YCH's go up over the next couple weeks, and have a fantastic e...

Over Santa's lap

Hey kiddos!

If any of you wanted to know the quickest way onto the naughty list, leaving a big wet spot on Santa's lap is a great start. Hopefully a bright red bottom was at the top of that pupper's wish list, because he's getting the gift that keeps on making it hard to sit still.

I'll leave you guys in suspense on who'll be grinding away at ol' Saint Nick's giant palm for another couple days while I work on clearing out those YCH's from last month, and the December sticker sketc...

Santa update!

Hey kids,

Just a little teaser here to say there are fun updates coming this weekend!  I've got the Santa's lap pic pretty much sketched out, and I should have progress on last month's YCH's.

We'll have this train back on track in no time  🚂🚃🐯🚃❤️🚃

December theme poll!

Hey kids, let's get this holiday party started!

I'll be banging out those November YCH's while you kiddos pick where we go from here ??

Lion delivery page 3!

As if Junior didn't have it bad enough without yet another embarrassment falling into his lap.

  💖🐱💦🦊💖

Finishing up!

Comic page is going up in just a couple hours here, after I give it one last polish pass.

Thank you all so much for your patience, you kids are lovely and I appreciate it so much!

Comic update!

Spent the weekend working on finishing up the comic page and I'm down to cleaning up the last couple of panels! I'd really wanted to finish it today, but not at the expense of rushing it and not liking the result. Hopefully you big kids can all be patient for another day or two!

Seriously though, thanks for hanging with me through this busy stretch! Your support means a lot. Hope it was a productive weekend for all of you as well ??

Comic update!

Hey kids!

Just a heads-up to say that the comic page should go up this weekend, and I'll be able to get on the YCH's next week.  Thanks for your patience as I get caught up here post-travels!

November YCH's!

Hey kids!

Back from the holidays here and busy finishing up the comic page, so it's time to get the YCH's rolling.

For this month's Daddy, it's Zephyrlot's turn!

Aaand for our Big Kids, it's  BaltNWolf's turn!

Send me a message here with reference of the character you'd like me to use, and let me know which of the animations (Zephyrlot) and which of the stickers (BaltNWolf) you'd like to pick, and I can get to work on those for you  💪🐯👍

Updates inbound!

Hey kids, flying back home after holiday travel today, so expect updates soon!

Hope everyone enjoyed their time at the kids' table this Thanksgiving. I know I'm thankful for all of you! 

Lion comic p3 WIP!

Hey kids! Been a busy month, and holiday travel means it's only getting busier, but the comic page is coming together and I'm excited to share it with you guys as it does!

I'll also make a post here of the next people in line to get their choice of previous months' YCH sticker and animation, so stay tuned 🐯💖

November theme poll!

Hey kids, it's that time again. Good thing all your voting fingers are already primed and ready, what with November 6th just around the corner! So before all you American tykes go vote in the midterms, vote here for what you want to see this month.

Good luck!

Get ready!

Hey kids! We're pretending his Halloween costume is a back-to-school outfit and that this isn't happening a month later than it was supposed to!

This month it's Solarian's turn for a YCH sticker!  Send me a message here with reference for the character you'd like to use, and let me know which of the stickers you want!

Loosening up

Professor Bear knows that new freshman can be nervous, what with all the classwork and being away from home for the first time, so he's always sure to help his students into something they can feel comfy and relaxed in. And he knows that those snug tail elastics can be uncomfortable for the bushy-tailed kids.

Thankfully, he also knows a thing or two about stretching out tight tail rings. There's a reason he's been voted the most popular prof on campus three years running!

Butt up, skunky pup!

The drawing's done and animation's begun! I think this one's preeeetty cute, you guys.

Grab the attached movie for a quick sneak peek at what you can expect to see!

Mid-lesson change WIP

These guys are just about ready to animate! And that means it's just about time to announce the next Daddy on the YCH list...

It's Capricorn! Shoot me a message here with reference for the character you'd like me to use, and also let me know whether you'd like this new animation or one of the previous months', and I can get on that!

Mr. Bear WIP

I'm trying out a softer shading style for more of an airbrushed look instead of the usual flat shading. It'll make animating a little trickier and it's a bit more time consuming, but I'm pretty pleased with the results and I want to keep learning and growing and giving you guys my best here.

I hope to have the drawing finished and ready for animation tomorrow, so stay tuned for more updates soon!

Refunds posted!

Hey kiddos, the refunds have gone out! Here are a couple of quick notes on those, in case anyone has questions:

-Patreon can take 5-7 days to process refunds, so if it doesn't show up immediately, don't panic!

-Patrons were refunded for September using October's payments, just so anyone who decreased their support amount this month still gets paid back fully for their September support!

-I was unable to issue a couple of refunds because your payment was declined. Patreon may...

One extra-sog raccoon dog!

Finished up the animation of Cobalt's cute tanuki! Let's just say that after a quick dip in the pool, he's feeling really *swell* 🐶💦

More updates to follow soon. Have a great weekend, kiddos!

Small edit!

In my last post about the refund, I said I'd be refunding September's payments, but I already transferred the money from this month out of my account so I don't have the funds to issue September refunds. Instead, I will be immediately refunding October payments as they come in! You should hopefully never even notice the money is gone.

This means it'll be another week or so before you guys get the refunds, but the end result is still that you're getting a free month to make up for the mo...

The Month That Never Was

Hey kids!

Due to work obligations I've been slipping behind a bit each month, and now my patreon is nearly a full month behind. I don't want to be charging anyone for content I'm not providing, so I've decided to go ahead and just refund everyone for next month (October) and we'll all pretend it never happened if that's okay with you guys.

This way I get a reset on my schedule and I'm not behind anymore and you guys don't get charged for nothin'. I super appreciate everyone's pati...

Slight change in YCH policy!

Hey kids, a couple of people have pointed out that picking the YCH winners by random selection doesn't comply with Patreon's terms of service, so I'm switching over to a sequential system. This will mean that everybody gets their chance in turn, and people won't be able to get a second YCH in the same category until we've done a full lap of eligible patrons. Hopefully that seems fair and works for everyone, as it's our only real option to keep things compliant here--and we're ALL about being ...

School poll!

Cast your vote here for which of the gold-star pupils from the last post is your favorite. The winner will turn into this month's animation, and the runner-up will get adapted into a sticker!

Back to school!

I'm sure you kids will get along just great with your new classmates, even if you are twice their age.

Had some fun sketching here. A poll will go up soon where you guys can vote on what you want to see developed further into September's sticker and animation!

September theme poll!

Hey kids! While I'm working on August's animation, why don't you guys pick where we head to next?

Pooltime YCH

Hey kids, refined the animation here a bit and it's close enough to where I want it to announce the YCH winner.

...It's ColbaltFoxie!  Shoot me a message here with character reference, and then let me know if you want to dive into this month's dripping wet animation or if you'd prefer one of the previous YCH animations instead.

Then with that out of the way, we can jump into picking the theme for September!  Stay tuned for that poll in the next few days.

Holding up

You guys have been super patient with me, so here's a bonus image just for being awesome!
