Update (Patreon)
Content
As I told some of you before I dissapeared, I was having issues with a family member. Things escalated and one day I was sued over the few properties I had ( My house, eveything in it and the car basically ) along some other charges I was never guilty of. For those who don't know, I'm a soon to be 26 year old, and I inherited my father house (it's just a small house) when he passed away 3 years ago, and this person thought it was smart to take advantage of me because I'm relatively young and that I have had a problem with alcohol in the past. I nearly lost all the things I had, and my reputation went to the bottom. I lost contact with other family members and the few friends I had while I tried to clear my name. At some point I had to live in my car for almost 2 weeks. That's how harsh it's been.
One day you wake up and life decides to punch you in the balls. The material things were one thing, but the fact this was done by someone so close to me was what made it really painful. I felt so betrayed that I simply forgot about everything else. I don't even rembember leaving this Patreon page opened. I'm cheking the account settings right now and there's a bunch of money from Patreons who kept supporting me for a while after I dissapeared. No words can describe how grateful and amazed I am. I don't know how to repay you for all this, but to keep making the work you like so much.
I don't want you to feel sorry for me, it's in the past and should be left there, but I brought this because you deserved to know, so there. I'm amazed on how people show support to me, even if I'm just a porn artist.
Well, all this made me rethink of what I want to do... fortunately I have a decent payed work now, and I'm trying to heal wounds . Drawing is one of the things I think helps. ( I draw things other than porn mind you, but I guess I have never really showed you haha) I have posted some new work in rule34 page already, but I'm still unsure if I want to re open this Patreon.
I want to draw more and keep improving. If I reopen this Patreon I think it'd be just about donations and at least the patreons would get the pictures first hand and give suggestions for future works. In my most crude, honest opinion, I thinks there's something wrong with people literally taking drawings as a product to sell, ( Obviously, not talking about commercial work for games, magazines and that stuff, but when it's fanart about series you don't own), I never felt comfortable with that in the past. There are people who don't have a problem with this, and I understand that, and maybe I will end up doing the same thing after a while. But for now, that's part of my hesitation to reopen this Patreon, I first need to asure you that your donations won't be wasted on things I'll never make. I need to commit on it fully, and I need to know I can do it.
For now that's all, I'm sure many people have already heard my plans about drawing the female characters of Pokemon, I want to focus on something and this is. First the female from the anime and then the Gym leaders from the games. If the girl never appeared in the anime like Touko and Leaf , I'll draw them when their respective game turn comes. I don't know how long it will take but I plan to make everyone haha. I expect to take breaks and draw other things too. We will see. I have some works never finished and I will try to get them done. A red/leaf pic I promised someone. Mary from the Hoopa movie too.
Thank you, I'd be glad to hear what you think. Also, sorry for my english, a friend helps me with this but his and my english could be better.
