Update

Hi everyone, I hope the holiday season has treated you well!

I’ve still been struggling with my health pretty consistently, but I feel confident that my doctor is going to try everything to help me get better. He believes I have an autoimmune disease which would explain why I always have several things wrong at a time, and the process of trying and changing approaches is slow and incremental. For one, I’m currently off my adhd meds so please bear with me as I get through my correspondence and backlog. As soon as I have an ok day I try my best to get stuff done but it’s been really hard to feel creative while going through this. I’m so thankful for your support, especially when I can’t produce much, it’s extremely helpful, it’s the only income I currently have, so please accept my sincerest thanks. If I can finally get the help I need I’ll be so excited to make so much more art and attempt bigger passion projects. I hope you have a happy new year!

Update: still sick x)

Hi all

Still sick / sick again, been to doctor yesterday, I have to take a bunch of different tests and my doctor is determined to help me get to the bottom of this. Your patience means the world to me, I’ve felt very guilty about my reduced productivity. I’ll try to post some stuff over the next 24 hours. I’m resting and taking everything I can think of. I watched some westerns which was nice. I tried some Elden ring dlc but it didn’t feel restful x) thanks for being here and putting up with the mess.

Purge warning! XD

Hi guys

Thanks so much for your understanding toward my last post, I really appreciate it.

Just a heads up that as part of the patreon cleansing/metamorphosis, I will be purging a lot of the older content from here next month. So if there’s anything you wanted to save now is a good time to do it! Thanks ☺️

Upcoming changes from June

Hi guys

I’ve been reevaluating things after getting into a constant burnout loop. I noticed most of the artists I support on Patreon make maybe one or two posts a month and have many more patrons and more income. I think I set up a structure for myself that takes more than it gives in a way, I never seem to have time to do the art I really want to do and have tried to function more like an art machine than a person. I keep getting overwhelmed and ill from having these self imposed obligations on top of the amount of extra commission work I always have to take on x)

From next month I plan to approach Patreon differently, and I’m aware it’s a risky approach that may put some people off, but I need to prioritise my mental health and enable my creativity to flourish.

The current tiers will still exist but as categories rather than monthly guaranteed content. I want to focus on following my creative passions and interests, drawing what I want to and working more slowly on better quality pieces that I can be proud of. I know not everyone is happy to support an artist on Patreon without certain structures on what content is posted when, but to those who remain and wish to support me as an artist, as long as it’s easily affordable for you, whether I post one or ten things, male or female subjects, experimental sketches, I’ll be so incredibly grateful. I’ve been so afraid to do what I want to or miss quotas in case people leave, but I’ve stifled my creativity and growth and joy of drawing.

I want to focus more on whatever subject I’m trying to practice or experiment with at the given time, whether erotic content, world building, esotericism, costume studies etc.

As I think some patrons will certainly leave or reduce their support, I am also putting any full new works/ sketches/ etc on Patreon, and will continue to repost old work on the public socials. There’s already enough of my work out there for free to repost for a lifetime so I’m trying not to feel bad about it, I will only publicly post small cropped previews to the actual work here on Patreon.

Under this more fluid creative approach I expect some months there will be more stuff here and less at the blue Patreon, or vice versa. (Especially the latter as I pursue more erotic skills). It’s just going to be a reality from letting myself being a human artists trying to live what they do again.

I hope it’s not too drawn out and convoluted an explanation, in my mind it’s simple but it’s harder to articulate the changes I’m making.

My plan regarding any outstanding commissions is to have everything finished by the end of June.

Thanks so much to everyone who has given any support so far, and a huge grateful hug to anyone who sticks around. My biggest hope is that the result of this change is that my art will improve greatly.

Tier structure thoughts

I already got 28 subscribers to my new erotic comic tier! I’m so excited to get this encouragement. I’m sorry that it’s not cheaper currently, but I only want people to subscribe who want to support the growth out of generous support and belief in me and who would have no difficulty at all affording it. If it becomes possible to focus primarily on erotic comic projects, the other tiers would then be based around that.

Here’s my current thinking on how it would work:

For instance, as long as god tier exists, it includes everything I post and by default supports the comic tier.

The explicit tier would include stand alone explicit images still.

Gold tier would be somewhat censored versions of the explicit images.

The lowest tier would primarily a way of showing support for my art without the guarantee of much content, other than written updates.

If I one day am able to only use one patreon account, the lowest tier here could be a way for some of those main patreon account patrons to transfer over here and support my art even if they don’t want to see the sexy stuff and nudity.

Anyway this is where I’m currently at.

I want to create a romantic long form narrative with explicit sex scenes within it, but will probably try fan doujinshi short comics on the side for practice so am up for suggestions on that one. Otherwise you will just get the cringe stuff I feel like doing at the time. I will start tagging the content though so you can filter out what you want to/don’t want to see eg: gay/hetero/bondage etc

New Tier / New Dream

Hi guys, I feel a bit sheepish announcing this publicly but lately I’ve really wanted to pour my time and creativity into erotic comics/narratives/doujinshi but I want to do the best I can with it, and the reality is, it’s such a time consuming thing to do and I can’t guarantee it will pay off or that people will want to see it.

My ideal scenario is that enough people want to support this new venture with me that I could eventually reduce my other commitments and tiers and focus my energy into this, maybe even getting something made into beautifully produced reading material someday.

I still of course want to do stand alone drawings and sketches but not out of obligation. It’s an interest I’ve always been afraid to pursue. Spending a lot of my life as a devout Christian with repressed bisexuality didn’t help x)

If not enough people are interested, I’ll withdraw the tier. Realistically I can’t afford to commit to the extra work if it doesn’t pay anything, sadly.

But I have to give it a go *-*

If anyone subscribes to this tier, you have my sincerest gratitude in advance. I’m yet to work out how it will fit in with god tier, I don’t think the benefits will be sustainable long term and perhaps not everyone wants smut comics in their inbox.

Thanks as always to everyone here for your continued support. I’d love to eventually make enough doing ero stuff to not need my other patreon account anymore =_=;;
