April 2024 news

Hello, dear patrons!

I could have announced this yesterday, but I didn't want it to be seen as April's fool.
An update regarding the content I accept to draw or not in commissions/rewards, that may disappoint some of you.

🔺 I'm getting sick of drawing macro art

I've never been into this kink, but was forcing me to draw it to please people.
It wasn't bothering me at first, but over years, drawings characters taller than cities and planets over and over bored me.

During the past months, I noticed I've missed details way too often and got lack of motivation during "Macro March". I think it's time to stop. I'll finish your macro requests already sketches, but after that, I'll set a size limit for characters.

💪 Next muscle growth projects

While I'm working on the comic introducing you to my lore, I'm preparing two new muscle growth projects.

In addition of the next buff fan-art comic (I'll create a poll soon), I've sketced a new YCH commissions, with the character of your choice getting puffed up by Statyk's PowerUP pump:

I haven't set a price yet, but expect something around 30-35€, with additional fees for extra details such as wings and complex character design.

⭐ Rewards slots still available

If you're not supporting me yet or want to upgrade your tier, a few slots are still open for sketches, flat colors and simple shading tiers!

Note that "simple shading" reward could be switched to a black & white comic page if needed.

💖 Special thanks

To conclude this post, I would like to thank you all and especially BeckyCascane, Dandicoot, nekmao33, Elio_Eon, Syn, SnowDogg, thatpinkfuzz, Sweettooth5505, Aaron, calm_wind, TigerClaw, Blue-Blazer, May Bee, LostMyName, Patpat1546, Acadiel, christ 394, DonDeerDan, ErronTheHedgehog, conor, Omegalizard2000, Anthony Smith & oakenbow for your support this month, you're awesome!

Also huge thanks to Chrome who has been supported me for almost 2 years but have to deal real life issues, hope everything gets better for you, buddy!

[Buff Fan-art] Candela (Hi-Res.)

Buff fan-art of Candela from the cartoon show "Marcelino Pan y Vino".

It's been a while I wanted to do a fan-art of her. Last time was like... 15 years ago? 😱

Here we grow again! Time to pump these muscles to the max! 💪😜

Poll results, new comic and delay in rewards

Hello, dear patrons!

I just wanted to let you know that I've been dealing with an art block during the two first weeks of March, which delayed everything planned for this month. 

As I've started a new comic project, I'm not sure I'll have the time to work on Patreon rewards, so I may just postpone them to next month (I'll let you know if I do so).

🗯 New comic in progress: "An introduction to Noéyihn's elements"

I told you about a comic series detailing stuff about how muscle growth works in my world; it's coming soon, with an introduction to the natural elements of my world and how they're connected to its inhabitants.

Once you know the bases, I'll work on the first issue of the series about air elemental techniques, including "thumb blowing" and "infinite breathing" you often see in my art.

💪 Yash Muscle Show: poll results for new pages

Poll closed earlier today and the winning body parts for the next pages are upper arms, upper torso, upper legs and lower legs.

Just after the results, I've been very productive and managed to finish the sketches of the three next pages! I'll share them with Ambassadors tomorrow, but for others, I can tell you that it must be the first time I've drawn Yash so big!

Getting too big for my pants... but not big enough, right? 😜

[Commission] Caught in the act (Hi-Res.)

— Commission done for LoreGattyas, as birthday gift for Animixyon.

It's  nice to see people are using my custom species to create their original  characters. Statyk is no longer the only ihós around!

Yash Muscle Show - Next pages focus #2

As I'm almost done with the next page of the comic, better ask you right now what body parts you'll like to see the most in the next pages!

Reminder: I'll pick the four best results, you can vote for more than one option! 

[Comic] Yash Muscle Show - Page 5

Big thighs, pecs and back, as you wished! 😜

Starting this month, I'll try my best to release a comic page each Thurdays!

New pattern for muscle growth comics series

As I'm opening my commissions to comics, I have reworked the way to do my new series of muscle growth comics, to follow a pattern of panels instead of doing all on the fly like I'm currently do. 

The image below is what I'm the most happy with: keep the focus on two muscles groups per page (that you vote for), in a comparison style, with additional focus on the character that is complementary to the other panels (up to me).

I'll keep doing Yash's comic the way I started it, but expect next comics to follow this new pattern.

[Commission] Terran Republic soldier (Hi-Res.)

A complex commission done for InoxGecko, based on the game "Planetside 2".

For members pledging for "PowerUP Ambassador" tier and above, you can see the whole creation processof this art work, from sketch to final render here: https://kinky.mctaylis.fr/patreon/terran-republic-soldier-creation-process/

March 2024 news

Hello, dear patrons! A new month has begun, it's time for the news:

🐌 Low activity, an explanation

I noticed a lot users stopped their support lately because they thought I would be more active. I want to apologize for the lack of activity since my latest post.

I had and still have to deal with real life stuff: most often, family members calling me to fix their computers at unexpected moments, resulting in a delay in my art schedule that somehow led me to an art block last week.

📆 Reworking my releases schedule

To make sure you don't have a whole week without content, I have to re-think my post schedule (especially for "PowerUP customers", who only have early access to new comic pages).

I will fix a release day for new pages (each Wednesdays or Saturdays for example) to ensure you get at least something to entertain you every week!

🗯 Open for comic commisions

Users pledging for "simple shading" and "full shading" commission tiers have now the choice to either ask for an shaded illustration or a growth comic page! 

Note that comic pages can be done as regular commission (100€ at base price).
Send me a private message if you're interested! 😜 

💖 Special thanks

To conclude this post, I would like to thank you all and especially BeckyCascane, Dandicoot, nekmao33, Elio_Eon, Syn, Justanother97, Chrome, SnowDogg, thatpinkfuzz, Sweettooth5505, Aaron, calm_wind, TigerClaw, Blue-Blazer, May Bee, LostMyName, Patpat1546, Acadiel, christ 394, DonDeerDan, ErronTheHedgehog & conor for your support this month, you're awesome!

[Comic] Syn's birthday Bulkie

I don't know what PowerUP Labs put in this Bulkie, but the results are incredible! 😮

Today is Syn's birthday! It was a special occasion for me to work on a first prototype of my new "comic commissions" (big thanks to LoreGattyas for coloring it)! 

---

Long story short: next month, you'll be able to commission me a growth comic page:

• 100€ for a black and white page
• 150€ for a flat colors page

Which means people pledging for tiers of the same prices could ask me for an illustration or a comic page, as they wish! 😛
