Still hard to believe I've made it that far! Thank you all for your support!

Oh, and there's beeg cat women there too. Some people might like that part.

If you haven't heard,  somaticdream is releasing an official version of Abandoned on the 17th! Check it out if you like fantasy stories and big, smelly yeens:

I just hit 400 watchers and 200 followers on twitter, two milestones in one day!
I'm going to have to work on some stuff to celebrate... raffle soon, probably!
Regardless, thank you all for the interest! It's crazy to think there's 400 people interested enough in what I do to want more. I hope I can continue to put stuff out that people like.

Head over there if you want to enter!

For anyone still using twitter, I have a 100 follower raffle going on there!
https://x.com/NotLiveIron/status/19.....19805080756253
I'll do one here soon, probably... maybe 400 or 500 watchers.

Going to be drawing a lot for it this summer! If you want to check it out, here's my profile:

I'll upload everything here eventually, too, but it might not be until the end of the month. We'll see how busy things get.

I've finally done it.

If you like using those sites, feel free to give me a follow:

I'm not planning on using them for much more than updates/ uploads, same as here -- no daily hot takes. Just branching out for the people that prefer those platforms.

I'm going to be uploading a lot of my older art there to start out with, will probably be taking it slow.

And the winner (by a single vote) is...

Laura!

The Yeens and Aki tied for second, and Patricia brought up the rear for third. There was a significant gap between those four characters and the rest.
As usual, you can see the chapters early and as they're being written on my Patreon. I still plan on doing art for each one.
The next chapter of UCS is actually on there right now, along with some concept art for some of the characters (more to come).
If you want to support, check it out!

Just in case people missed it or you're new, the poll for the next part of ND is up!

The way it works has changed a little, so be sure to check before you vote. Patrons get extra votes along with early and exclusive content; if you're interested, I'd really appreciate the support!

Commissions are still open, too!

Trying to help an artist friend of mine out:
Madchief ( AMadChief) had his twitter account hacked, and possibly deleted. He's trying to put the pieces back together on a backup account: https://x.com/AMadChief1
Give him a follow if you can! He does good work.

Prices here:

Deals with story commissions!

I'm sure most people have seen this already, just wanted something more up to date than art fight as my featured journal.

I'm participating in Art Fight this year!

Seafoam ftw

Gonna dump a bunch of the doodles and art I've done over the past half a year or so. Sorry for the load of pings.

Talia won the last poll, and since she's at a split day, we still have to decide if we're going Normal or Resistance. Here's the poll:
https://strawpoll.com/polls/NMnQ5E1zYn6

Don't think I'll be doing this format again -- it really slows things down between updates. Next poll will likely be back to normal, with the Yeens/ any other characters at a split day getting their own separate polls.
