Today is my birthday and I'm now a 35 years old lizard who already received lot of chocolates, candies and fanarts~

Thank you in advance for your birthday wishes! 💖

Today is a very special day for me as it celebrate the 15th year of me being part of the furry community, but also the 15th anniversary of the creation of my main sona: Yash, who evolved over years from a Yoshi fan-character to an unique and custom sub-species of gecko.

💖 Huge thank to everyone for your continuous support for all these years, being a full-time artist wouldn't have been possible without you! Stay silly! 😜

If you are familiar with my art, you certainly know that I have two different art style: my regular detailed one and a more simpler, toonish one. It appeared for the first time 10 years ago, as a way to draw my characters in silly situations faster.

Followers starts to enjoy it and I decided to involve it into fetish content, especially growth sequences/comics. It was fun at the beginning, but over months, I learned to love drawings details and it felt like this style was slowing me to improve, so I stopped using it. I gave this style 2 other tries but the same feelings happened again, in 2018... and now.

I put way too much details in it, especially when it involved fetish content and in the end, I spend way too much time on something that was originally made to be simple and fast to make. I have the feeling it looks too similar to my regular style and so today, I took an important decision:

My toon style will now be used only for general audience. No kink will be involved again. It should stay what I originally made it for.

This decision will, of course, lead to changes in my current works:
◼ I have no more motivation to continue the comic "The Best Paws". Page 5 has been updated to become the final one of the story.
◼ Patreon rewards will be reworked in August: I'm not 100% sure yet but if you are pledging for a toon styled sketch reward, you will now get a line only sketches (no color or background).

Happy new year, dear followers! ✨ Best wishes from your silly gecko for 2023!
I have a bunch of things to tell you, new stuff, changes, ... let's see what's new for this year:

=== 🎨 COMMISSIONS ===

- Say goodbye to the soft shading done in my "mix-shading" render as I'm embracing cel-shading fully! You can now choose in between "simple" (single layer of shadows) and "full" (shadows and light effects) shading renders when commissioning me.

- Curious to know if I'm busy with commissions or not? You can now check my work in progress directly on my website: https://www.mctaylis.fr/commissions.....k-in-progress/

- Comic commissions are coming soon!

=== 💰 EXCLUSIVE PAID CONTENT ===

- New toon comics are in progress and a big new "PowerUP" adventure is in preparation! More info on: https://www.patreon.com/posts/what-.....xpect-76629517

=== ❤️ NEW PLACES TO FOLLOW ME ===

To conclude this post, I have open accounts to more social and furry networks to give you more alternatives to follow my art (they're super empty right now, but I'll fill them with art soon!):

You can check waiting queue here: https://trello.com/b/gX5SIqpN/mctaylis-commissions

I think about opening my own Patreon page to support the creation of growth comics (mostly muscle related content, but paw too) and I need to know your opinion on something: tier rewards.

Besides early access to new pages and sketches, what kind of rewards would you like to get?

Here are a few things I thought about, but if you want to suggest something else, feel free to do so:
- Special Discord role to gain access to a new channel, used to discuss of comic ideas for current and future projects.
- Cameos in current comic
- Sketch commission
- 3 panels comic commission

With the help of Syn, I'm now experimenting with comic commissions!

🔹​ It's gonna help me to get an idea of the time it takes to complete a page, what renders I can propose and how much I can charge for them.

🔹​ If I'm comfortable enough with such new type of commissions, I'll let you know about prices and open a few slots!

⚠️​ While I focus on this comic, I'm closing regular commissions, but they'll be back with lower prices!

Time has finally come to open regular commissions!

You can find my price list, info of what I'm used to draw and terms of service on my website, right here: https://www.mctaylis.fr/commissions/

I'll start gently with 5 slots, first come, first served! Leave a comment below and we'll start discussing about your demands as soon as possible.

EDIT: All slots have been taken, but don't worry if you missed the opportunity, more will be open next months!

Six months ago, I shared with you a list of ideas for growth comics.
Now that Statyk has rejoined my lore, this list has been updated. I can tell you that half of these stories have been designed for the big Iósi, but I was keeping it secret until now!

Let's have a look at the whole comics planning:

Muscle growth

* XStretch pants - Statyk
* Muscle model - Yash
* Private beach show - Yetshi
* Beach king - Statyk
* Clothes ripping session - Statyk
* Illegal formula - Statyk
* Too sexy for my shirt - Statyk
* First time with PowerUP - Yash
* Surprise for the boys - Aurore and Audrey
* Overcharge (remake of Spere94 comic) - Statyk
* Temple trap (original "Jailbreak" remake) - Yetshi
* Artifacts (2015 "Jailbreak" remake) - Yetshi and Draeter

Foot growth

* Audrey's foot growth show (remake) - Audrey
* PawerUP pump - Statyk
* The best paws (remake) - Yash, Yetshi, Statyk

Half of them are in development but I can't tell you when they will be done. Some can be released in a few months, some other can come next year. Wait and see!

New reward on Codename Statyk's Patreon page

We stop taking new characters for cameos in "Codename Statyk" and consequently, have updated the "Bounty Hunter" tier main reward.
By pledging 25€ on our Patreon page, you can now ask me for a sketch of the character of your choice (limited to 5 patrons per month).

To support the comic development: https://www.patreon.com/noeyihn_team

Try it out now: https://fetishart.mctaylis.fr/

Incoming new main character!

Now that I built my sonas a family life, I want them to be a bit more serious and so, I will use them less often for fetish content.

However, I'm going to introduce soon a new main character in my lore, who will be mostly used for all my kinks related art! I've been teasing them for quite a long time, but here's the last teaser before reveal: https://twitter.com/mctaylis/status.....84676955848706

1K watchers!

I just noticed that I've reached the awesome amount of 1000 watchers! Huge THANKS to all of you for you support! :D

Unlike DeviantArt or Twitter, FA doesn't have a system to create short status update, so here's a journal to let you know what has been done recently and what will happen next.

New release schedule for Codename Statyk next pages

Starting this week and in order to normalize the wait between all next pages to 2-3 days, public release of new pages will now happen on Wednesdays instead of Sundays.

A website to show you all places where you can find me

If you're looking for every places where you can find my art and projects, I just updated my network web page: http://network.mctaylis.fr/

New entry in my Fetish Art Archive

Last week, I added an unreleased foot growth sequence of Yetshi made in 2019, in toon style.
You can see it here: https://fetishart.mctaylis.fr/art/p.....ped-feet-show/

Progress made on my new muscle growth comic

All sketches for my next comic "Stay in shape" are now complete!
Unless I'm too busy with my website projects, you should see the first pages later this month (4 in total).

I keep them closed for an undefined time.

In order to be in full legality with art I'm selling, I plan to register as freelance artist (French law, don't question it). To fit this new status, I'll need to rework my services, prices, and of course, my interactive prices guide.

However, I still have websites in progress for clients and want to finish them before focusing on anything related to commissions, then I'm (almost) sure to always keep focus on art starting next year. Developing a website takes time, from weeks to months, depending of its complexity. Do not expect me to accept any new art request before I'm fully ready to take them.

Even so, I need breaks during my programming sessions, so I'm not going to stop working on my personal art projects, you'll keep seeing new art from me this year.

Best wishes to all of you for this new year, hope things go better than 2020!
---
I prefer to warn you first about what's below: I do not plan to complete this list in a single year, not even fully complete it as these projects are just ideas that could change over time or just simply disappear.

* Stay in shape (muscle growth) - Yetshi
* XStretch pants (muscle growth) - Yetshi
* Muscle model (muscle/foot growth) - Yash
* Beach king (muscle/foot growth) - Yetshi
* PawerUP pump (foot growth) - Yetshi
* Know your limits (muscle growth) - Yetshi
* Illegal formula (muscle growth) - Yetshi
* Fair fight (muscle growth) - Yetshi
* First time with PowerUP (muscle growth) - Yash
* Surprise for the boys (muscle growth) - Aurore and Audrey
* Overcharge - remake of Spere94 comic (muscle growth) - Yetshi
* Temple trap - original "Jailbreak" remake (muscle growth) - Yetshi
* Artifacts - 2015 "Jailbreak" remake (muscle growth) - Yetshi and Draeter

That's right, two remakes for "Jailbreak", both part of the "Yetshi's Adventures" series (which are meant to be not too serious stories of the blue lizard as treasure hunter).

* "Temple" really keeps the original story plot where Yetshi gets stuck in a room and have a single way to get out of it: growing big enough to break walls.
* "Artifacts" is a way more complete story, with exploration, lore development, fight scenes and of course, muscle growth moments.

I have no release dates for both projects, but sketches have been done for the first one, and script is complete for the second. Stay tuned for more info!

About the other stuff, you may complain about the fact there is only one female muscle growth comic. Let's be clear: I do love watching this kind of content, but feel less comfortable drawing it. I'll give it another try this year, but if it still not work, please, don't force me.

Anyway, like previously said, do not expect all of these ideas to be done soon. There is currently another huge project on the rails: Codename Statyk (that you can support on Patreon).
