2021 Updates! (Patreon)
Content
New Year, new goals for this page! Near the end of last year I switched from doing weekly and daily images to full blown short stories every month. That was a great success, and I'm going to keep that up for a while. Maybe not forever, but at least no major changes for the next several months.
In November I got really ambitious, and even though Getting Drunk at the Beach was probably my most popular story yet, it put me behind on my production schedule, and I never really caught up. I had a plan to catch up this month, but Overlooked & Underfoot had lots and lots of rendering issues that put me even further behind, and I knew something had to change!
On top of all this, I want to talk about Patreon. Patreon is not the best platform for this artwork, and other artists have been getting removed or asked to delete content. I'm not badmouthing Patreon, I understand their position, but it is time to diversify. I'm dependent on this income for both everyday life and hardware upgrades, and I would be in a pretty bad spot in Patreon deleted this page.
Finally, I've been dabbling off and on in animation for a while, knowing that ultimately I want to focus on that. I've put a few animations up here and there, but nothing I was *really* proud of.
So how does all of this effect you as a Patron? Here's how it's going to break down!
Going forward:
- Rendered Stories/Comics will be every 3 - 6 weeks, instead of every single month. This is to help set the expectation that if something goes wrong, or its just a very busy month, I've got some buffer time!
- Animations are going to be a little more regular, but will eventually move off of Patreon. More on that in a moment!
- Voting is going to open up to Tier 4 ($10) Patrons!
- I'm starting to release animated content on Subscribestar.adult!
Regarding that last point, Subscribestar.adult is really a better platform for this kind of art, and is even sort of built for it. I already have content on that page and I'm waiting for it to be approved, but Tier 4 ($10) Patrons will get access to some of that in the post that goes up right after this one!
Thanks for all your patience in recent months, I'm super excited about some of these changes, and I hope you are too! Cheers!
