Eggnog Cookie (NSFW)
🕑 Added 2021-12-08 22:24:30 +0000 UTCWouldn't you want something similar for the holidays? π
For this set, I've put in more effort because I'm not religious but I love Christmas. So, Merry Christmas to you guys! This one will have 8 versions that includes pieces of clothing disappearing and an Almond munching on those Eggnog(s).
I think I've said this here before and I have no idea why I keep doing it but after finishing this whole set, I realized I felt burnt out. Not just because of this set but also the other ones in the past few months. Variation packs are draining. I finished the base version in two days and thought, "Oh wow I can finish one illustration in a day or two. But then I have to do another version of the same piece tomorrow, and another one on the next day (it's not as simple as it looks)". If I decide to just rush it, I get anxious that you guys might end up not liking it because the quality wouldn't be the same. I've been trying hard to let go of tension but every time I hold my pen and do a few brush strokes on my tablet, it keeps coming back. Though, I'm not saying I don't enjoy the entire process anymore.
And please don't take this the wrong way. This is not me trying to make myself feel important or convincing you guys to stay. I just wanna be open about it to you guys to give you an idea in case I make changes with my Patreon rewards again. I also felt like addressing this now because the variation packs are burning me out for the rest of the month and I'm getting deeply worried about my comics.
[Image set will be sent to Savior Patrons on December 12, 11:00pm, GMT +8 and again to the newly joined/rejoined before the month ends]

Ahh I'm glad you like my comics too π

So, the single images are great but personally I enjoy the comics a lot! It was the comics which drew me in to begin with.
Helbai
Maybe I was just being dumb for not going with single images in the first place lol π But yeah, I'll probably make changes soon. Thank you for letting me know your thoughts!

It looks great! Though the please don't overwork yourself for our sake, you should get to draw without having to feel burnt out. I also agree with Jarrod's earlier statement variations don't always add value to your work and singles image art work just as well.
Helbai
That kinda gave me some relief. The thought of single-image art also crossed my mind. Thank you π
Jarrod
8 Variations?!? You spoil us. Regarding your thoughts, I don't want you to feel pressured to do art you aren't enjoying drawing. Variations, especially excessive variations, aren't always adding value to the piece. Sometimes a pinup, or a single image, or just one variant is plenty. And if your comics bring you joy, just focus on those for a while. Any fan of your art would want you to be happy as you make it, so please don't overburden yourself with expectations.
