The next few months are going to be expensive ones for me. I'm moving soon, and will be paying more rent. I also have a potential follow-up soon for a previous doctor visit to save up for. I'm opening up emergency commission slots.

Until further notice (or until we all just kind of forget), all comic commissions that are at least 3 pages long (with each page having at least 4 panels) will be %25 off, and all illustration commissions for games will be %50 off. I'll be deciding whether or not a particular commission is eligible for this discount on a case-by-case basis.

I'm plugging my Bluesky again because I'm still getting "Why the Fuck am I even here" numbers (more so than I already get elsewhere)

Making violent threats in my comments will get you instantly blocked.

I've moved a lot of my old AR art from scraps to it's own folder, so it should be easier to find now.

I'm increasing the early access period for premium art from 4 months to 6 months.

PSA: There are TWO different, separate versions of Subscribestar: a regular version and an adult version. So, if anyone went to the regular version, didn't find me, and gave up, just thought you should know that.

For anyone who's been waiting to migrate off of Patreon, My Subscribestar just got approved! https://subscribestar.adult/normaldeviant

At the very end of November, I went to the hospital to receive an appendectomy. The surgery went well, and I'm mostly recovered now (though I have had an unrelated cough for the last few weeks). My application for financial aid was accepted by the hospital, and I don't owe them any money. I still owe money to a few misc. services. I've arranged payment plans for all of these services, but my monthly bills have basically doubled as a result. I'll be paying off these bills for the next 2 years.

I'd appreciate any commissions or pledges anyone can give. Though I can't post what I draw directly on Patreon anymore, I will still be posting it in my Patreon-only channel on my Discord. I've also set up a premium subscription on Deviant Art, and I'll also connect that to my Discord, to give access to artwork I can't post on Deviant Art. Lastly, in the future, I plan to make a Pixiv Fanbox account.

I'm opening up 10 commission slots this month. Please note that I've also increased my prices. I'll update my price sheet soon to reflect the changes. Since I haven't been able to get much work done in the last few weeks, expect longer wait times on these.

I had my appendix surgically removed this week. The surgery went without any complications and I am recovering at home, but I am sore and tired. Expect little activity from me this weekend, and reduced activity from me for the next few weeks.

Commissions are open! I'm opening up 5 commission slots.

Commissions are open!

I'm opening 5 commission slots. Get 'em while they're hot!

I've opened up a few extra commission slots to help me pay my bills this month. The wait times will be a bit long, but otherwise it's the same great prices and quality you've come to expect.

Thank you to everyone who commissioned me or joined my Patreon in the last few weeks! I was not expecting last month's call-to-action to receive such positive response.

I'm going to start doing monthly posts about commissions and Patreon that will be half status update and half call-to-action.

Drawing is my career and only source of income. I rely entirely on money from commissions and Patreon pledges to pay my bills. If you have any money to spare, it would mean a lot to me if you would join my Patreon. Every little bit helps. I can always use more financial support.

Anyone reading this probably knows by now that I draw giant/tiny, adultbabydiaperlover, and age regression artwork, but I dabble in all sorts of subjects and mediums. I draw cute monster girls (and boys), BBW/weight gain, anthro, transformation, sissy, and a number of other topics. In addition to illustrations, I sometimes draw comics strips and sequences, animate short gifs, write stories, or even do game design. I am proud of the quality of my artwork, and I'm working hard every day to improve.

I mentioned several years ago that I'd gotten carpal tunnel. I haven't said much about it since there wasn't much to say. I've wrestled with the same pain flareups and soreness and gone through regular periods of feeling helpless, but recently things have improved slightly for me. I'm excercising carefully and have found a comfortable work schedule. It's been a while since I've had any pain flareups. I still can't possibly adhere to the kinds of 50+ hour workweeks that proffessional artists are sometimes forced into, but I'm catching up on my Patreon backlog, and have gotten my commissions down to a manageable amount.

I would like to gain 5 new patrons and 3 commissions by the end of October. More would be better, but I'm going to lower my expectations until I see what the results of these posts are. If you don't have any money to spare, there are other ways you can support me. You can get the word out, by sharing my artwork with people you think will be interested in it, and by linking them to my Patreon and to my various galleries (which I'll link to at the end). Comments and likes would mean a lot to me, too.

Now I'll talk a little bit about the rpg I've been working on for 3 years: Honey Scales and the Giant Nursury. Progress has been slow, but most of the game is finished at this point. The next demo I release will contain about 75% of what will be in the finished version. Currently planned for the demo: a new playable character, new transformation themed status effects with matching sprites and character portraits, several new enemy and boss encounters, two new areas, and improvements to previous areas. I'm setting October 31 as the final deadline for submitting art to be featured on the fridge in-game, and for having your name listed as a backer.

I'm changing the early access period for Patreon artwork from 1 month to 2 months. This is to incentivise people to join my Patreon.

I've changed how I bill patrons, so now you won't be charged until one full month after you subscribe, even if your first payment was at the end of the month.

Thank you for taking the time to read all of this, and thank you to anyone who's already supporting me!

Septembab (probably not a recurring thing) is drawing to a close. I will post more AR and similar stuff in the future, but not this much all at once. If you didn't subscribe to me to see this kind of art, thanks for sticking around anyway.

I've decided on some personal guidelines for posting SOME of my unposted age regression artwork. It will likely take me a while to post all of it. You can find them in my scraps. They will have little labeling or description, and I'm unlikely to anwser most questions about them.

I'm repealing some changes to my commission policies I made last year. In short:

-I now accept age regression commissions of characters under 18 (but still won't be posting any of it). The rules about no sexualy explicit content featuring minors still apply.

-I was, and still am, taking commissions of adult characters being physically regressed. (I'm not sure how many people are aware of that.) The rules about no sexualy explicit content featuring minors still apply, even if they were an adult before being regressed.

-I now accept commissions of giant characters destroying vehicles/buildings/planets/etc. Implied injury/death only. No visible gore.

-I now accept vore commissions. Soft vore only. No chewing, acid burns, etc.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I added two folders to my gallery: one for transformation art and one for art of my OC's.

Every two months, I hold a poll. I pick 10 ideas from patrons and have my patrons vote for which idea they'd like me to draw. Patrons of all tiers can participate. https://www.patreon.com/posts/64713685

I've got 5 commission slots currently open. Get em while they're hot!

(As of Sep 26, all slots have been taken. Check back in November)

I'm bringing back patron suggested art, but I'm doing things a bit different this time. Instead of selecting from options I come up with, you all will submit your own ideas, and I'll pick the one I like best to turn into a drawing. If you're pledging at least $1 a month, you're eligible to participate!

One suggestion for person, please. Limit your ideas to three characters. Also, I'll only accept ideas involving my OC's (and only the ones that are over 18). If this goes well, I might do theme polls in the future where people can include their own OC's in their suggestions if they fit the theme.

I'll pick the winning suggestion on Oct 1st.
