UPDATE-INFO!
🕑 Added 2021-07-30 18:54:12 +0000 UTCHey yall! I want to pop in here and let all know I'll be a LITTLE late with my patreon reward. There's been a bit of a snowball after I had to do a treatment therapy not too long ago (I might expand on that later for those curious, after I get test results back, it could serve as piece of advice on health, etc... )- regardless, I was/am catching up!
Vtube model issue
NOW, I have a big major issue (which is entirely my fault). I commissioned an amazing artist a couple months ago for a vtuber model, because I plan on streaming a lot more than I ever had and I think vtuber models bring in some life to the streams. I went this route because I was/ am always at war when it comes to liking my own work. I thought if I had someone make something for me with a "Mood board" I'd love it, and it'd be better because it wasnt ME doing it. So, fast forward, they produced an amazing model. Then my spot finally came up for rigging from the best team out there Iron_Vertex. My spot has been on hold for about a half a year and my model was only just completed this month (like a week and a half ago) . So, the time was now to get my model rigged, etc. BUT, before hand, I kept thinking about rigs, models and what not. And I came to the conclusion that I felt disconnected from my commissioned model. The model is FANTASTIC, btw, design wise. But it didnt feel like like me. I know that probably sounds dumb. But I want my model to kind of mean something more (at least mean more to me, personally) and I think the only way for that to be was for me to have a heavy hand in designing it, or just straight up creating it. Which is what I'm doing currently. I've been graced with the time to bust out a full body full cut model in a week give or take. Ergo, that's what I've been doing the last couple days. I've already fully designed it and lined it and it just needs to be colored and cut.
I felt like I needed to be honest about this and transparent when it came to this particular situation. It's a live and learn thing, try to avoid this. Not only is it setting me back time/work wise but booooooooy did it chunk my wallet. I'd rather people learn from ME than do it to themselves. I'll be addressing this elsewhere too, as a cautionary tale.
Obviously, this has set me back. So, right now my workload looks like this: Vtuber model, PATREON, commissions.
Patreon is next in line. What I WILL do, tho, is produce a nice sexy black and white pinup for yall in the meantime while you wait for the comic. I'll be posting it either today or tomorrow! I dont want to leave yall with NOTHING.
About the comic-
SO, webtoon! Which is still happening. Except its not in webtoon format anymore. Webtoon format is extremely difficult to read if it isnt hosted on a site to scroll through. The pages are loooooooong and sliced, sometimes cutting into panels, etc- which makes reading them outside of a hosting site kinda crap. What we got now, is an 8 page manga format naughty encounter. This will make reading it WAY easier. The comic will remain available only via Patreon for a good while. It is essentially storyboarded out, sketched/cleaned up and just needs to be lined and filled with black and white, etc. I'm actually excited to see what yall think of the encounter!
A side note about webtoon stuff. I had someone mention to me that I can host my own little website and it's apparently super easy to make? Where I can emulate the webtoon format, etc- and I wont be bound by rules. Which I'd love. So, I am looking into that as well. Cuz idk what to do otherwise. I'd rather do naughty stuff via webtoon format. I think this is my best option and I really do enjoy the webtoon format personally. I might just pay my buddy to make the site for me.. I'll be sure to keep you all updated on that!
That being said, like always, thank you all for your time, patience and understanding. I cant wait to start streaming more and producing lots more content. I've been absent from almost everywhere for a LONG time and I'm itching to come back and just DO THINGS.
