Brief update, and December Plan
🕑 Added 2023-11-05 07:15:20 +0000 UTCUnsettling Noises:
Hi guys, so really quickly my PC is struggling very hard, the fans sound like an old timey airplane and I'm having issues with slowdown on graphics intensive processes. It's been sort of off for a while but it's noticeably worse today. Maybe it's the GPU going, maybe the cooling system is failing (again), maybe it will be fine again tomorrow. But I got to thinking - it's 6 years old now, and it's had a good run, and the time to replace it is while it's still running and I can easily recover and transfer all the data. So rather than tear it apart (again) to find out what's wrong I've bought a new one. It's supposed to arrive Wednesday, so hopefully everything's trouble free and I'm back to normal that evening.
Not really excited about getting Windows 11, but it has to happen sooner or later I guess.
For December:
I'm going to do holiday requests again! If you're a patron during December you can request one. The plan is still to do the usual black and white drawings, like this one:
Although I'm considering flat colors this time, maybe. LMK what you think, it doesn't take too much more time but I kind of think the BW with a little shading might look nicer.
If you haven't been around for this previously, the pic can be one or two characters (maybe 3, but I'd prefer to limit it to 2) doing whatever - my characters, your characters, pop culture characters, whatever you like. Well no exactly whatever, there are some things I won't draw, but if you're not sure just ask. So far none of it has ever come up; usually people want nude or not quite nude women, which is precisely the sort of thing I'd be drawing anyway.
I'll start an entry for requests on December 1st that will go over everything in detail. We'll also do a Ninja tier pic for December, since the requests are for patrons at all levels.

No worries, just copy-paste it over when it's time.

So hopefully it's not too much of a spoiler, but we maaaay see this later in Clarissa and the Sinister Idol. It'll be some time though so you might as well toss it into the monthly poll, I think you've got a pretty good chance, honestly.

I also now realize I overlooked the fact that you said you'd have a separate post for this on December 1. Well, I voiced a thought anyway.

Yeah, I'm always hesitant to move to the new version of Windows, but in the end it's always worked out. Often times software updates are changes for the sake of change that don't improve anything, but justified someone's employment. Like the current Patreon logo... Having the option for color seems pretty popular, so that's probably what I'll do.
Jarogo
Eh, all right. A few months ago, you drew a picture of Miyuki and Clarissa effectively scissoring. Now knowing that's a thing you'll draw, at least occasionally, that was my "spicy" thought. No silly scenario this time, just that, but with characters other than Miyuki and Clarissa since that had been done. (I'd also want them both face-up, instead of Clarissa being face-down in the original.)

If you have an idea that you think is a vote winner, then you might want to hang on to it - if it wins it will be a fully shaded color pic, the holiday requests will be a bit more basic. What's the spicy idea? I can probably tell you who the best characters are.
Jarogo
I had two thoughts, one spicier than the other. Maybe I'll save the spicy one for a vote later on down the line, as I'm not sure which two characters I'd want in it (or which two would even be a good fit for it), so here's the less-spicy (but still hardly SFW) one: Lili on the phone (with another person at her district) saying that she hasn't found that mysterious blonde streaker with the fake demon horns, but she's sure she's closing in. Little does she realize that right behind her is Angela, happily skipping by, who has somehow managed to get Lili's uniform and underwear onto her tail (like the 30,000 picture when she did that to a somewhat less oblivious Clarissa.)

I love your b&w work, but having color as an option is nice for sure

I'm with Jaxton re: coloring.
Jaxton Dragoon
I have Windows 11. It's not bad. But I see where you're coming from. As for requests, why not let the requester decide? They'll be B&W by default but can be flat colored if that's requested.
