Time for a break

General
No pages this week, gonna just relax and work on fun mini-projects instead, maybe some game time, etc. Should hopefully be recovered for next week, it's just been a rough work week. In the meantime, I hope you've all enjoyed having twice the content, it's been pretty heavy to keep up with, but we've been plowing through the pages a lot faster as a result, and I think we're gonna be able to keep that up for a good while forward.
Out of curiosity, and I'm not saying this is gonna be a thing any time soon, but.. What would y'all be interested in as rewards if I did set up a Patreon? What would make YOU (yes you, I'm pointing at you) jump on that wagon? And yes, I know not everyone are able to do that, but let's completely ignore the monetary concerns and purely base this hypothesis on content..

As for the patreon thing... dunno. Being eligible for one sketch request every month would be neat, but on the other hand I wouldn't want you - who already does a lot of that - to favor patrons over non-patrons in that regard. But I can imagine this working.
You should also keep posting all of your work publicly. Porn wants to be free D:
(I know there's nothing more annoying than artists posting gorgeous censored pictures and then referring to patreon.)
So... that's rather negative.
Since I have no idea, what do other artists do?
In terms of rewards (While not a Patreon myself) Something that might bring about some gains is maybe lore stories or more in depth looks into the world you've created. Perhaps just rough sketches of maps or more in depth mini comic type things. Not to distract from the main story simply add.
As theoretical Patreon rewards, Zenon's idea of regular "free" sketches or Benjamin's of a cameo sound good. Maybe you could even offer the occasional side story (what happened at night at the inn, what's Mis'alia doing at the moment, etc.).
Unrelated question: I could probably quickly look up the hot keys, but how do you adjust brush width and hardness on the fly in Clip Studio?
Edit: Even though it's already been said plenty of times: Rest well; you've more than earned it
You can also rotate the canvas with SHIFT and space + click/drag, as well as zoom in/out with CTRL (or ALT) and space.
I also just discovered something else that's potentially super useful.. Holding CTRL and SHIFT and dragging over any specific thing on the canvas moves you to the layer that's on :O
Edit: Nevermind, that's not actually that useful, it just selects all the layers that have something on it within the area marked, which means basically motherfucking everything on the canvas for me :p
