Harem Studio #09 (Ongoing) 17/17
🕑 Added 2023-01-31 06:55:38 +0000 UTCMy Windows 10 was not responding so I reset my PC last week. 😔 I'm trying to reinstall Photoshop but it always gets stuck at 95%. Thankfully, I could install PS on my Laptop, and I'll be able to finish #09.
I've been really tired lately, so I'm going to give you guys a free month after I finish this chapter.

BloodLust
I'm taking a break, but I'll keep posting content.
Anime
Well another issue done. So is he going on break for a month or just going to work for free for a bit. Either way I can't wait for more.
Tyrone Johnson
We must celebrate with some BK Stackers
Andrew
Agreed about her coming out of her shell. Would have liked to see just a bit more. Shorter dress, not a mini skirt. No bow in her hair and open toed shoes. That would have been a beginning.
Jak O'Hara
I think the idea is that she's slowly coming out of her shell at her own pace, you know, progress and all that. Plus, she probably wouldn't wanna be seen as the only square at the party if she knew the dress code going in.
Andrew
Love your work but why does Felicia look like she’s heading for a hoedown? I thought she would have on a sexier outfit. If you’re going to make her look like the girl next door you could at least have her put on granny panties instead of a thong. You know, full coverage on the butt. 😂😂😂😂. Looking forward to the next drawings. 👍👍👍
Jak O'Hara
We did it boys! 🥳 17 outta 17 at last! Felicia looking fine as hell! 😃 We got Josh and his boy rollin' up with some baddies in the back, and we finally on our way to rizz the fuck outta Jessica at last!
Jak O'Hara
Never before nor since have such words of wisdom been mused so elegantly as this 🍔🧀
Tyrone Johnson
“🎸🎶🎤BK Stackers: Bun, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese, Burger, Cheese. YOU RULE!”
Me too! Only 6-8 weeks to go 😂
Anime
Can't wait for the party to start.
BloodLust
💖😥 Thank you!
Jak O'Hara
There's always something so atmospheric about your work BloodLust that sets it apart from everything else one could possibly come across out there 😁
Jak O'Hara
Ahhh, that's a fine catch 😯
Redacted
Nope, take a closer look. Most of the time Josh wears a blue hoodie with a white T-shirt. In page 15 he's wearing a white hoodie with a blue shirt.
Jules Darnoc
He actually is wearing the same he always does 🤷🏼♀️
Redacted
Anyone else notice that in the last page (15) Josh is wearing the men's version of Licia typical outfit?
Anime
I'm guessing the new page is about Felicia getting dressed. If it is I hope we get to see more of her thoughts on the upcoming party.
Felinewolfie
Poor Mike. Poor Mike
Kevin P.
Ominous hehe is ominous.. This whole party is used as one big ploy against Mike, perhaps?
Jak O'Hara
Ayo Jessica lookin' kinda maliciously fine tonight I ain't even gone lie 👀😲🤨 Also, nice to see ya make the GOATED RETURN Bloodlust, Absolute clutch of a page.
Yaboiicreamynoodles
Mike got the drip on
Dude Dude
I am preeeeetty sure Jessica got sparked with the camera when Mike shot her, so I expect still a kinky tail from this dominatrix. Not sure if he will like the outcome do hahaha 🤣
Anime
Nice page, but I get the idea that Jessica is expecting them. They could be walking in to a trap.
BloodyBoone
I think the camera had a very subtle effect on Jessica. I think she will end up in a closet or bedroom with our MC's best friend soon
Yaboiicreamynoodles
It starting to seem like we get a new page every 1week and a half
Jules Darnoc
LOL? Break from having a break?
Looks like another two page month. You need to take a real break. You're burned out bruv! 🙃
Anton Smith
You alive?
Yaboiicreamynoodles
I wonder if Mike is gonna lose his virginity at this party or is he gonna be a bro and help Josh with Felicia
Felinewolfie
Hmm. I SO want to see Jessica's flower being softly devoured by a hot girl ;)
Omega Supreme
Yes thats Jessica, the white haired cheerleader on the "cover" of the comics
BloodyBoone
the one currently being drawn? (14.5)? I believe its the MC's friends crush.
Yaboiicreamynoodles
Who's this
Dude Dude
Hahaha BL is keeping us still exited and 'just' hiding Felicias flower 🪷 but I am moooore then happy to wait and see MC bang lotssss of other cuties will the amazing stories unfold 😅
TrippyRed007
I wanna see him fuck Jessica
Anime
I hope the other girls help Josh get Felicia.
Prof Palm
Really hoping Felicia doesn't break Josh's heart at the party. If she does I hope he just fucks all his girls at the party
Andrew
As much as I love the happenings between Josh and Lily, I am hoping that Josh and Felicia do wind up together.👍
Felinewolfie
Felicia is my <3 *BOOM*
Jak O'Hara
God how does she make something so simple as drying hair look so glamorous 😵💫🥴
Dude Dude
Like many said already BL... I don't want a free month and if you need a break to get you life together just take it. I am glad to even keep on paying my 1$ a month, who give a flying fuck :) You gave us fun and Art last year worth atleast double what we paid. So if you even need 1 year sabbatical this silly 1$ a month will keep on entering you account
Can't wait to see Felicia again! HS #4 is *still* the best issue ❤️
BloodyBoone
I have to assume thats Felicia showering that is getting colored.. :)
Along the lines of banking pages or providing other content while you're working, creators like Balsamique just pull panels from their work and quickly turn them into nudes. Like the recent page with MC and Mrs Harrison. You could drop a version without the bra really quick and post it while you're inking or coloring a page. Just a thought 😀
Ace
For real- I was about to post the same thing. That's *wild* I love this guy
Jak O'Hara
👀
nutmeg
bruh, mc got sent on a quest
Gyron
I wonder if he could get Mrs. Harrison as his assistant? Probably really hard, but who knows.
BloodLust
It's not like he can't have fun with other women, given what happened in the club. But maybe it wasn't clear enough. I'll try to fix that.
Jak O'Hara
"What car did you hit me with"🤣 I don't know if that was meant to be Savage or sincere but that last line really got me
Anime
So only a 3 person harem. Less than I would have liked. Maybe his assistant could help expand things.
Redacted
In all fairness they never said which Friday...
🦗🦗🦗
Omega Supreme
I think he also needs to look at the Patreon Goals because based on the current support hes sposed to be doing 2 pages a week... and to be perfectly clear I'm not complaining, just pointing it out
100% agree. I would also stop saying specific days when you'll post pages. You've missed almost all of them. Just say you're shooting for a page every other week and deliver them when you can. Setting realistic expectations will take a lot of pressure off of you.
DerailFate
BL I really think you should take some sort of break after this chapter, give yourself time to breathe and relax
BloodLust
Hey guys! Don't forget to participate in our latest poll, Choice #12!
Dude Dude
I agree Sacha. Keep the pace that feels good.
BloodLust
Thx, I know I can do better. I just need a break after #09 to get my life together.
Kohler-09
There also is the argument that we are supporting you, BL. This is not a subscription service, where we expect a new page every week, this is a platform for you to share your art and we are giving you tips as a form of appreciation and gratitude. You don't owe us anything, just as we don't owe you. In my opinion, i respect if you think or feel differently, it is not worth to get burned out over a hobby, even if you make money with it. Take a break if you need it, noone is going to judge you for it and if someone does, it shows they've got their values wrong. I at least will have your back. Still, communication would be appreciated. This silence is making you look uninterested and ignorant towards us and your work and i know this is not true. Love to you, BL <3

Continuing our 'banking' updates discussion, also consider the practice of 'underpromise, overdeliver'. It's a mantra in business that can often be used inappropriately, but in this case I think it's a worthwhile concept to consider. Assuming you're not already doing it. Basically when posting when you expect pages to be ready, be conservative. Give yourself a few extra days beyond what you think it'll take when telling people when the next page will be posted. If you wrap things up fast, everybody's happy. If something happens, you have a few days of wiggle room. Time pressure, even something that's self-imposed is one of the surefire ways of turning something that's fun and fulfilling into a dreaded slog. Even when you don't need that extra time, it can be really freeing knowing that you have it available. Fortunately it seems like you have a really supportive and understanding patron base. Without anyone really seeming to throw a fit about life getting in the way. That kind of community is worth its weight in gold and it's really nice to see. So it's not strictly necessary to bank and/or UPOD. I'm just raising it as possible strategies if you're starting to feel burned out.
BloodyBoone
Im assuming the guy is retiring, and wants someone to take over for him.
Luke Snedden
After you’re done with this chapter, you need to have a break and relax. You honestly deserve it with how much work you’ve done.❤️💪💪
Jose Anguiano
Honestly get some rest after this chapter bl you deserve it ❤️❤️❤️
BloodLust
hahaha 💖
Good idea! Pin-up nudes of each of the girls would be amazing 🥰
Salmon
just touching on the stacking up some pages comment, thats a good idea, and if you dont want to intentionally leave it too long without posting you could throw together a picture that could be from one of the 'photoshoots' a single photo, not too much going on, keeps us pervs happy and gives you a chance to do what you do
Finn 0815
How is it that you can depict the female body in all its glory with incredible detail and love... but your F-15 looks like a cross between F-15, F-35 and maybe an F-18? Sure, Lilian is my number one, but military porn is also pretty hot I think...
Killumi
No need for a free month man. Take the time you need :)
Sameman
Man the Principle is weird.
Tyrone Johnson
I’m good on the free month, shit is practically free anyways lmao, just get better
BloodLust
It's hot in there.
BloodLust
💖 ttyl!
Redacted
Ever consider 'banking' pages? I'm not sure what your workflow is but it seems like you post pages as soon as you're done with it. Which is great! It really shows how responsive you are to reader feedback. But it also puts a lot of pressure on you to produce. Burnout has a way of sneaking up on you. Even being a couple pages ahead gives you a little bit more wiggle room when other life obligations come up. You also don't necessarily have to be cranking out new pages as updates. In the past you've posted some of your other work, posting more (in a variety of states of completion) keeps the update train moving and gives you the necessary headspace to work at your own peace.
Adam
This man thinks imma let him give me a free month. Get out of here dood. Take your time. Feel better.
WorthyDragonfly
Damn, was hoping to Rachel in action. Also rest up man! Gotta survive to see this comic through!
nutmeg
Appreciate the heads-up
Adair
No need for a free month, nothing wrong with some time off. Gotta take care of your health and mental state.
BloodLust
Thanks Sasha, Jacob, Killumi, and everyone. But I'll have to take a break to get my life together right after #09. The next few chapters will be really intense.
BloodLust
TY guys, but it's all right. They have a right to know what is going on. And both Jules and Greco have been with me since 2021. 🙏
Sashalicious
I don't need a free month, I'll gladly wait a bit longer for a page if you need the time. I assume this started out as your hobby, your passion, so... Please don't let it burn you out! Art can't be rushed - and I'm sure I don't just speak for myself when I say there's no need to over-promise, no need to rush things, no need for a free month. Please take good care of yourself, your stuff is worth waiting for ❤️
Arias
Don't be crazy, your patreon is almost free, you don't need to give us anything more. Just give us a heads up when it's too much for you and we will understand.
Jak O'Hara
Woo, a free month you say? 👀, interesting developments, both on page and off 😯
Teh Wen Khiey
Curious. Is Rachel concerned for Felicia's safety at the party? Like some drunk guy might try to rape her there?
draevan13
So ashamed of gaming, he confessed to watching porn. Don't be so ashamed, Mr Jones!
Redacted
With respect Jules, that example is not the same. If you purchase something on Amazon, you are paying for a product. By supporting an artist on Patreon, your literally a patron of the arts. You're not paying for a finished product, your financially supporting an artist that you appreciate the work of. So variable output speeds is just a part of the process. Certain pages may take longer because of the difficulty involved or other real life obligations. And unlike an established webcomic or similar artistic project, these pages aren't being 'banked' so they can be released at regular intervals. Plus we're talking about $1.00 USD a month here. That said, would I like it if updates came faster and were better communicated? Absolutely. But at the aforementioned $1 a month I'm not too bothered by the current status. Lastly, I do apologize if I come across as picking on you. That's not my intent. I know you're not the only one who's raised similar concerns. And it's one I absolutely understand. You just happen to be one of the last comments I saw when I was formulating my thoughts. And your Amazon example was an ideal way to bring up the patronage Vs product situation. I'm a web content creator myself so this is a discussion I have some degree of familiarity and the corresponding strong opinions about.
BloodLust
I really apologize.
Killumi
If they need time to work on the page to how they want it to be/or pause to write out story, they can take the time they need to make sure it works and turns out well. Also was easter weekend so they could be spending time with family. Its not comparable to some package you order, stop being so demanding.

you are some interesting customers

They can take as long as they need to
Teh Wen Khiey
Methinks Rachel's opened her blouse on purpose for Josh because he's earned it.
Teh Wen Khiey
Totally worth it!
Kohler-09
Josh can be so cute and wholesome
Charmss15
That 5% probability is putting in work right here haha
Kevin P.
To be honest, Lily's attitude across this whole comic as well as that 'girl next-door' factor really make me like her a lot.. (plus I like how BL keeps drawing her. It fits her character so well!)
Anime
By the look of the Lily part he really needs that lesson about Performance.
Andrew
Wow. First time we see Lily with her hair down. Never thought I’d see the day. 😂. I like it. 👍
Beforedawn
Leaving us hanging man
Teh Wen Khiey
Whoa! I did not expect her to give a practical lesson THIS soon, given the last poll! I thought it would take much more time for Mrs Harrison to come to that stage.
Jak O'Hara
God, what a glorious page 🤪
Kevin P.
Oh dear, indeed! Lovely turn of events; hopefully her learning about his woes in lasting so short really sparked her to help him 'train' that aspect, hehe
draevan13
"Uhmm... Rachel?!" Oh dear, I wonder what she's doing ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Jak O'Hara
I swear I often find myself checking this comic for updates more than I do messages from my own mom sometimes 😅🤣
Sean Young
She fills a page in just the right ways
Kohler-09
Now i want to have some cookie too
Felinewolfie
Her husband isn't paying enough attention to her, so she'll happily do it to feel more desirable. Also, MC has a quota, and she's only too happy to help him.
Zach Davies
i wonder if there will be a vote about which girl he spends more time with soon, defo voting for daisy
Jak O'Hara
I'm definitely interested in this new Lisa character 😯 looking forward to seeing if we get more of her
BloodLust
😇
Andrew
That last panel is almost like a season finale from a TV show. “Next season, will they be doing this, doing that and so on.” Looking forward to the next segment.
Teh Wen Khiey
I'm glad Josh removed his earphones to talk to Lisa on his own terms, especially since the "Repeat After Me" audio prompts never end well when interrupted on the prompter's end. That being said, I hope he can genuinely hook up with Felicia, hopefully without resorting to the camera. However, I'm also afraid of how much Murphy's Law might screw things over.
Jay923
What could go wrong right?😅😂
Jak O'Hara
Your a Legend BloodLust, a saint of sin blessed to us all 😉👉👉
Yaboiicreamynoodles
I don't understand how mc is a nerd .
Killumi
Also, really dig Lisa's look/character
Felinewolfie
We love your stuff. MOAR! ^_^
BloodLust
Thanks. I'm more motivated than ever to pursue our goals.
Killumi
Yep absolutely no rush to produce the work. Health and mental well being should always come first.
Finn 0815
True.
Jak O'Hara
I love the Mission Impossible feel to this page 🤔
Tristana Simp
Don't worry about it, health comes before work! No need to stress yourself out
Jesse Hamilton
More Lillian and Daisy PLEASE! Best characters on here!
BloodLust
Sure thing. 💖
BoojumSnark
One thing I love about this comic is the changes aren't always immediate and drastic. It makes the pieces fun and keeps a bit of tension to the story. That being said, I am curious if taking a picture is supposed to be a minor change that stays that way - but more pictures get the subject sluttier and sluttier - or if the first picture starts a slow descent into horny servitude, and more pictures make it happen faster.
Math~
I dont have any problem waiting. Take your time and make great job. But only thing, when you wont be able to finish a page in time, just tell us. Think all readers gonna understand.
Anime
Well that plan didn't work.
Ace
Awe, BL- it happens to everyone. Just like Symbiote Rex said- set yourself some realistic deadlines.| And take care of your health, of course. Lots of love, mon ami.
Salmon
health 1st always buddy, keep up the good work
Finn 0815
I gladly wait a week or two longer if we get theese bubble free pages. :)
BloodLust
Thx man! 💖 I'll do my very best to make it up to you guys.
Anime
Don't worry about it. Your health comes frist.
Yug87
I’m with you on that, I don’t mind being told a vague date which doesn’t set it in stone so you’re not so stressed. But updates on the pages as you go would be cool, even if they’re not coloured in yet
Symbiote Rex
BL, my guy. You gotta set realistic deadlines for yourself. It’s no good for anyone, especially not yourself, to make unmeetable deadlines and then stress when you can’t reach them. Take your time, make great art. Just give us a few updates as to how it’s going. And maybe a few of the pages without the speech bubbles would be nice.
BloodLust
I completely forgot to add the tag. Thx.
BloodLust
I'm really really sorry. This won't happen again. 😢
Ace
A fact which I'm sure brings us all great joy /s Look, I love the story and the artwork- but it *can* be a little grating to see "Monday" and then hear nothing for two weeks. All I ask for is an update on the new expected date, y'know?
Anime
The next page seems to be taking a while. It must really be something special.
Finn 0815
It's not about getting rid of the bubbles and going on without text. I've said that many times before. It's about introducing an extra tier in which he puts the pictures. There, people like me can support him without impeding the flow of the story. That would work if he saved the images before he draws the bubbles and posted them at the same time as the finished panel, but that might cut into his workflow.
Jak O'Hara
Yo! I literally just did that! I thought It'd be more convenient just to have them all in a long page but then I noticed how it doesn't have the Harem Studio tag on it! 🤔
Kohler-09
And i want to spend my money to follow this well written and well paced story. I'd be sad to lose my beloved speech bubbles and other remarks. BL sometimes used to upload unfinished pages without the dialogue, maybe that would satisfy your needs?
Finn 0815
Absolutely! Finally someone who understands me! And the USB sticks are then mailed to each subscriber. And hey, I understand the lust for blood. That's exactly why I suggest we bleed in an extra tier with pictures of the models. For that I and my wallet will happily bleed.
Felinewolfie
I agree with you. He should do away with speech bubbles entirely, and just put the text separately, on an attached USB key? So we can have unrestricted view of her heavenly bosom and sweet features. I swear... Blood lust is a sadist. Isn't it implied in his name, though?
Finn 0815
I want to kindly throw in my indignation again. I'm afraid that we won't get the current portrait of Daisy (bottom left, we've all been waiting for it) without the (well written) speech bubbles. What a crime against humanity and I'm sure Blood Lust will have to answer for that in The Hague. Like: Daisy!! You're so... covered in speech bubbles! Breaks down sobbing. I just want to spend my money on a collection of damn well drawn hotties.
Felinewolfie
It's at the top for me
Jesse Hamilton
Thanks y’all. I got it to work now. Appreciate it.
Kevin P.
Did you clear cache for all of patreon.com, or the entire browser cache in general?
Anime
Its at the top for me
Jesse Hamilton
Anyone else having a problem with this not being on Bloodlust’s front page? I can see 1-8. For chapter 9, though, I have to scroll through my home page in order to find it.
Felinewolfie
Or : Want to be my model? "Let's boink" rather than Do you want to be my model? "I want to take photos of you" ?
Andrew
Make out with Lily? Good Lord no. Lily doesn’t seem the type.
Crucis Ardeos
You know when Josh asked Daisy to be his model, I think she thought of the term in quotation marks with a wink and a nudge appended to it. I'm not saying she should be wrong about that.
Kevin P.
Why did I hear Morgan Freeman's voice here? Lol
draevan13
Daisy: "It's okay." Narrator: "It was, in fact, not okay."
Finn 0815
Oh good lord in heaven she said it! And my nose hurts. You know it's not good to sit so close to the monitor?
IronEh
Daisy is perfection.
Jak O'Hara
AYO! 😯😯😯😛😏 Daisy 'bout that sub life game fo real🤪
Kohler-09
TIDDIES!
Felinewolfie
god she's hot. Now if only she'd make out with lily in a threesome with the MC
Kohler-09
And I am SO happy about it ; )
Leonardo Rafael
Goddam I was SO right
Andrew
Daisy is cute but I’m still waiting for Lily. 😃
Crucis Ardeos
We all love her freckles.
Leonardo Rafael
YESS finally Daisy boobs (hopefully)
BloodLust
Oh, that's for the extra page just like the other chapters. But idk, maybe I'll just leave it like 16/16.
Felinewolfie
I love daisy. She has a pure soul :)
Rodrigo
Is this one really gonna have 17 pages instead?
Symbiote Rex
Daisy is my favorite girl
Jak O'Hara
Ayo! The return of Daisy, lets gooo!
Yaboiicreamynoodles
Ayo
Omega Supreme
I can see that...

I'd like it if she asks him to use the camera on her to take away her doubts, worry, and Jealousy.
Omega Supreme
Yeah... I don't think he'll need to use the camera on her XD
Sean Young
Same
Sameman
Backstory time boys get the popcorn and a sit back and enjoy the emotional ride.
draevan13
Yeah, I'm hoping he never uses the camera on her.
Albert Becerra
What a wholesome beginning they both had. I hope Felicia just gives a chance to Josh already, he genuinely loves her. ❤️
Truecooler21
But I can't wait to read it
Truecooler21
Don't tease me with this it's so hard to wait
Jak O'Hara
Aw shit, Here we go again 😍
