[IMPORTANT] New Changes...
🕑 Added 2025-08-22 16:51:50 +0000 UTCSo a poll had been ongoing for almost 48 hours to decide a new change to content/posts from here onwards, allowing more benefits for paying patrons and early access for 3–4 days as an incentive for their past and continued support through donating their hard owned money for content I offer for free. In order to return my appreciation and to give them more bang for their buck, I decided to run that poll as a general consensus rather than just impose on the entire system and make the change without referring to the community.
Being 70% in pretty much the last 24 hours with 428 total votes, I ended the poll with 6 hours left on it since the majority winner was a clear decider in agreement to allow paying patrons Early Access among other benefits to be implemented for their support. So, here are the guidelines for what will happen from tonight, until hopefully another decade or so.
Commissions, Major comics, Non-Canon/Fan-art works, and Short comics, will have a 3-4 day lock with exclusivity, only accessible to all paying tiers, such as ‘Coffee (£1)’, ‘Sandwich (£3)’, and the ‘Day’s Meal (£10)’ members. Once those 3–4 days are up, all remaining free/following members will be notified that the post is now unlocked to all.
Mini Comics, Pin-Ups, and Full/Mini Animations will be unaffected, however, most of these will be posted exclusively on Twitter first, then uploaded to Patreon through the Monthly Update Packs, so that won’t change at all.
Members in the ‘Sandwich (£3)’ and ‘Day’s Meal (£10)’ tiers, will be able to participate in future patron-only polls, giving them the option to suggest selected OC pin-ups or perhaps Mini-Animations, future Non-Canon projects, and potentially even deciding the next Major comic. (This won’t happen soon, since I have a lot of things in place already, given my second half of 2025 plans post.)
Commission raffles/giveaways. In the future, all ‘Sandwich (£3)’ and ‘Day’s Meal (£10)’ tier members, will be eligible for free 50-page commissions (Following guidelines) that will be chosen completely randomly through 3rd party RNG sites, for example, through ‘Wheel of Names’ as was suggested, etc.
And that is pretty much it, to be honest.
I was amazed by the incredible response to this significant change, the feedback given and the humble appreciation, showing that this community we have built up, is god-tier. I am grateful for the support that many still show, the ongoing and continued interest in my content, which I’m surprised I’m still going, and this is only pushing me to go even beyond for you guys.
Expect many great things, I will ensure that my work is worth the wait for all. Again, if any clarification is needed for anything above regarding the change or anything else even, then please, my DM is open. Either here or on Twitter. It might take me a minute to reply on Twitter due to the number of DMs and hidden requests, so bear with me over there.
Like I mentioned in the comments for the poll post, I won’t feel a type of way if I start seeing these comics out there or shared among peers before it’s made free in a couple of days. If anything, I’d be lowkey happy they appreciate my content to the point they cannot wait XD
I’m not trying to force people into subscribing for the content, at the end of the day, it’s still all free. You only need to wait a less than a week more than usual to read and enjoy as a follower instead.
Now, enough of the word vomit, no more articles for the rest of the year. Hopefully...?
I’ll see you guys tomorrow with the first EA post, which is an 80-page commission. Thank you guys so much!

Lilith's not an OC of mine. She was a commissioned/Adapted character belonging to that commissioner. I won't say we won't see her again, but there are no plans for her at the moment.

Could be 3, could be 4. It's anywhere in-between that, depending on if I'm at my desktop and/or able to unlock the post at that moment.

These changes sound good and I'm looking forward to the OC votes ! (I hope Lillith wins every time but I'm sure a lot of Aya and Lucy fans are out there as well lol)

Glad you got a final count for this. You're very popular artist. It's crazy to think that you've made this all free for so long. Along with being able to do commissions from time to time. Looking forward to you continued growth and success boss.
Morrigan.
你值得

If it's any consolation, I don't have any Aya comics in the works rn XD
Iwv,91 ,
I guess ill see you in 5 days, ill enjoy these comics even more now that ill have to wait more. I pray the wait will be worth (most likely it will) its gonna hurt when you upload an aya comic and ill have to wait 4 days 💀, but oh well cant do nothing about it just wait (literally XD)
