Happy Thanksgiving! And Some News/Updates~
🕑 Added 2015-11-26 19:29:34 +0000 UTC Happy Thanksgiving to those that celebrate! May the turkey make you fat and sassy.Thought I'd do an update since I've been a little quiet on the info front. I've got a lot of projects going on at once, so I've been a bit overwhelmed!
Pleasure Principle
Firstly, I'm awaiting the inks to the final two pages of this month's Pleasure Principle pages, and I will colour those and have them up before the end of the month. I want to update all the pages at once, so that's why there's been no update yet.
I've begun sketching next month's pages after completely rewriting the last third of the chapter. I originally had the chapter wrap up on a confrontation between the Clique and Gabby & Olivia, but I honestly was tired of drawing buildings and school uniforms, so I have the last part be a photo shoot with Olivia that goes awry, which is more fun to draw, both from an erotic and artistic perspective.
I know this chapter has been pretty heavy with scene setting and dialogue, and people may be wanting me to just cut to the smut, but the comic is a big story and needs a foundation to build off of. It'll be getting more intense soon, promise!
In all, this chapter will have about 32 pages. I *may* take a small break from it after that, or just continue it alongside another comic. This will be a LONG comic, so I don't want to burn people out on it if they want to see other stories ;p
Speaking of other stories, I might do short erotic comics featuring side characters. I would prefer to wait until the story is further along so we see more of their personalities and how they fit into the main story. I'll likely put it up to vote on who gets featured and what they do.
Londoners Webcomic
The past month or so, I've been working with a friend to re-script and revise my years-old outline to Londoners, the comedy/drama webcomic featuring my main cast of characters (Puzzle, Diamond, Nightshade, Patrick, etc.). This is the big one - the story I've been ruminating over for a decade. I want to launch it next month, because that will be the 10 year anniversary of Diamond's creation, and I think it's about damn time XD
I'm still not sure of the style I want to use for the comic, and I'm unsure how I want to incorporate it into patreon. I definitely will make the comic free to view online, but I dunno if I should give patreon an early bird version, or post it day-and-date. I also don't know if I should give Londoners its own patreon or just incorporate it into this one. Londoners may have some nudity and mature themes, but it won't be a pornographic comic (I'll save the smut for smaller side comics), so my main thought of having it be separate is to allow it to reach a wider audience... but it may be too confusing to do that, so I may just keep it all in one place. I dunno!
I'm also not really settled on the title 'Londoners'. I've thought of titles like Going on Safari, or London Safari, or something... the latter option got some interest from people I talked to, but I feel it sounds like a clothing company or something XD I'd appreciate feedback/thoughts on titles!
Back Catalogue
I routinely get asked if people can get prior month's art content. What I'm thinking of doing is making a back catalogue system if a patron reaches a certain payment amount. I want to make it both easy for me to keep track of and fair to people who pay monthly. I'm also going to be putting up prior month's art packs up on my webstore (which is coincidentally having a Black Friday sale, shameless plug: www.latenightgrind.com ) , but comics and PSDs will not be part of the LNG store packs' content. For patreon, I likely would include the prior comic pages but possibly not the PSDs (it'd eat up my storage fast). What would sound like reasonable rates to you guys?
In Conclusion
Let me know what you guys think of these ideas. I want to discuss and figure out what's best for you! Have a great weekend!

Indeed!
Kadath
Yeah, I just need to figure out a good price point for retroactive access.
Kadath
I likely won't, as it'd likely be too much, but I'm just sharing my thoughts with you guys X3
Kadath
Mmm, I see what you mean but it doesn't quite roll off the tongue.
Kadath
London Bridges, haha XD
Kadath
It's an oft-requested feature, but I need to figure out what's an appropriate level to allow access.
Kadath
I'm likely going to do that, yeah. It might be too much to separate the projects.

Do what you feel is right. Though I would prefer all the material stay in one profile.
Stoker Bramwell
I for one would LOVE to have access to the backlog. Especially since I habitually forget to download each month's new content. X) As for the comic, hmmm...London Bridges?
Panquake
How about "Londontown" or "Londontowners"? That makes it sound a bit more personal and jolly.
ObscaenitasCorvus

Silvador
Nothing wrong with a little story to go along side the smut. :D Makes it all the more... juicey. :P
Memerk
Same to you. I like the idea of getting back images.
