September 2022 Summary
🕑 Added 2022-10-01 16:30:03 +0000 UTCEven busier than the last few months…
The 70 hours work weeks continue, and that is the official number. If I counted my work like a traditional hourly job, these would be more comparable to 80 hour work weeks. Over 50 unique pieces of art were completed this month of varying quality; one such picture was the 2ndlongest to complete picture I have done for the entire year.
To my great announcement, this month I managed to clear my entire Patreon queue with everyone’s 5th anniversary requests. I am completely caught up in that regard!
Plans to make Patreon exclusive content
For a long time I frowned upon the idea of making pay-walled content for Patreon but now with how much I do with art as my full time job, I am more open to it.
In the coming months I hope to spend time experimenting with picture alts at the digital level. With these alts I think I will make them Patreon exclusive. These could include nudes and expansion pictures. But the base pictures will still be posted as normal.
These will likely be available on the $5 tier.
I am also considering a new Patreon tier to compliment this where those Patrons’ requests can have alts of some sort, either nude or expansion. The alts process planned so far requires me to start with the characters nude and then add clothes or NSFW bits.
Adult content
Also, I have long considered doing true adult content and putting that behind my Patreon as well, but I am finding I don’t have a deep artistic passion for creating adult content. I can do it very well and I do like personal indulgence in viewing such content, but for me to do it, I have to be in a specific mood.
I don’t think I could get myself to do adult content consistently enough to consider it a Patreon benefit.
Halloween Patreon content
If you want to be more involved with my cast of characters, consider supporting on the $10 or $30 tiers where you can make requests for one of my cast members! October will have several themes that are Halloween-ish but you wouldn’t have to opt into the theme.~ You could just ask for a character straight up in a normal way. >w>
Real estate taking more of time
If you are new or haven’t been following closely, a few months ago I purchased a piece of commercial real estate to save my mom’s business. Now I’m drowning in debt and work to pay off the enormous expenses of ownership and renovation. It’s why I work so much. It is a survival need. >.>’
As I type this, we now have a likely tenant for the unused portion of the building and they want it to be ready for use in about a month or so. That means we have a deadline for making renovations happen and there is a LOT to do along with multi-thousands of dollars of renovation costs.
I’m hoping I just need to tough out this work load for one more month and then finally be able to back off on things x-x’
It’s been over a month since I last played a legit video game. I miss those…
Here we go to October! I hope this will be my last hyperactive month before I can start slowing down and having more of a personal life.
Thank you Patrons for supporting me! I really appreciate it. ^.^
