Streaming Schedule, General Updates
5 years ago
Afternoon y'all! Hope you're all doing well. Just wanted to post a quick update since I haven't posted something in a few weeks.
I've been trying to settle into a routine that lets me fulfill commissions while also putting time into my own art and my comic; and it's a little rocky but I think I'm getting the hang of it. I think moving forward I'm going to reduce the number of commission slots I take on because I think it just ends up stressing me out when people are waiting for a long time for me to start on their pieces. That way I can have more frequent openings instead of only really opening them up like once every few months. To those still waiting in my queue I really appreciate your patience!
I've really been enjoying streaming while I work in the afternoons, but I also feel like I need off-stream time to work on certain things. To balance this from now on I'm going to be streaming for a few hours on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays starting at 2:30PM EST primarily to work on my comic and personal projects, but also occasionally commission work. This new schedule goes into effect starting next Monday; I'll try to make sure that when I make announcement posts for the streams I include the themes of the work I'll be doing since I get the impression I have a wide variety of things people are looking for in my art lol.
I've done some adjustment to my Patreon tiers as well. I strongly dislike the idea of creating a paywall simply because I don't like limiting access to my work as well as the fact that with the age of digital media, things will be leaked and that's just a reality I'm working with rather than fighting against. After all, I got most of my start as an artist on 4chan. I would never be where I am today if it weren't for the free sharing of erotic media around the internet. To account for this, Patrons will have early access to full pieces and alts but they'll become publicly available one month after patrons gain access to them. I will still be keeping full-resolution versions as patron-only as well as access to my raw .sai2 or .psd files.
I'm excited that I'm almost halfway to my $100/month goal on Patreon! If I hit that level I'll start setting aside a day each month to run a request stream for all my fans. Patrons will get priority on requests but anyone will be able to view the stream and make requests after patrons.
