Hi everyone, I want to let everyone know about my current situation regarding Patreon: A few days ago I received a copyright claim from Nintendo about several illustrations (fanarts) of Peach. For security reasons I ended up deleting all my content with Super Mario Bros characters. Nonetheless, I'm still debating if I should delete all the fanarts that could potentially be claimed by franchises like Nintendo.

I've also been issued a warning from Patreon itself to keep my content as original as possible to avoid said copyright infringements, otherwise they will terminate my account all together, so you might understand why I could be feeling stressed out under this news, I've been thinking about what to do next with this Patreon, I've had some ideas but I'm still not feeling sure about one, that's why I wanted to ask you guys on your opinion on this matter, it would really help me out. Here are my ideas so far:

1. Using only original characters (the only issue with this one, is that I don't know how I would make a poll for you guys to tell me what characters you want to see)

2. Using original characters and fanarts ONLY for polls and just ONE will get the GIF (this option will also give me some extra work since I will have to change some names, censor some stuff for copyright avoidance)

3. Closing this Patreon account and and start freshly on a new account in a month or two (this one will probably give me some time to prepare something)

Well whatever option it is it will start by January 2024, this month all stays as it is since, I know some of you are here for the fanarts and I don't want to let you down, so I'll probably be posting tomorrow about the requests for this month. As of today, I'm already working on some original designs for characters, I will update you soon as fast as I can finish at least 3 different designs so you can check them out.

Don't forget that I still have my X/Twitter account in case Patreon decides to close this one, I'll update you about stuff there. ( I will also upload the deleted Patreon content over there but it will be slowly)

I throughly apologize for this abrupt change on the content, and thanks so much for the support all this time!

I’m cool with option 2. I just really enjoy your art in general so I don’t mind original characters at all, I’d welcome it! But it would be cool if fanarts could somehow remain in some capacity too - love those a lot! Regardless, thank you for all your hard work and hope things go well!
