Kind of an awkward story. I hired an artist off Discord a few months back for a piece based on Goblin Stripclub ( https://www.patreon.com/posts/goblin-stripclub-26744638 ). They were paid up but they got busy with personal life and financial trouble. The fact is I'm not assuming my porn stories are more important than somebody's well-being. Half the reason I'm glad to hire on artists is to share the wealth, and I'm quick to snatch up artists with emergency sales and stuff.
So this art was early designs for a full on rendition of their strip tease from the finale. Never got beyond this, and don't even have their contact info without a lot of digging, but hope they're doing good with the money I sent them.
Also it's not like I'm just buying up a ton of art lately. Two or three of these lately have been cheap and slow pieces I bought in on. Krish was a really fun character to write for; a very early start of goblins breaking expectations as a committed lesbian.
"Now I don't know if any of you have heard, but there's been a lot of demand for a particular type of dancer. You're all my girls, but this is a business, so I've recruited two goblins to join the team." THAT got Candy's mouth to drop open. At least it kept her from saying what she was thinking, since the two new girls came walking in at Jackie's signal. "Girls, these are Jiji and Krish. I expect you to help show them the ropes around here."
The first goblin was more or less what Cammy expected. Jiji was a pale green girl with the usual small and chubby build that people expected with goblins. A mass of purple curls filled the space between her high and elf-like ears. She smiled awkwardly as her eyes darted around the room, adjusting her shirt with the Greedy's logo (a young franchise of monster cuisine restaurants) over some tight-fitting slacks. Of course, a pair of tits the size of watermelons stretched out the "Greedy's" on her shirt as well as taking up most of her torso. "Oh uh, like... hi," she said in a cute and bubbly little voice. It was overly high-pitched with a slightest hint of smoke and gravel, the kind that Cammy imagined people looked for with goblins anyway.
Krish was her own sort of stereotype but not what Cammy was expecting at all. Goblins tended to have a lower class, punky sort of aesthetic, but Krish leaned harder into the goth type than she had ever seen on a goblin. Some brightly colored hair was buzzed close to her skull to leave her with less than an inch of pink fuzz on her dark green head. She wore a baggy black hoodie with the band Green Rebels' wild letters scrawled across the back. Black lipstick and eyeshadow drew a lot of attention to her face; the rest of it was caught up on the ring in her long nose, the three different piercings on each ear, and a stud where her lower lip met her chin. It was hard to tell with the unflattering hoodie, but she was clearly more bottom-heavy than she was busty. A wide set of hips couldn't hide in her sweatpants that went all the way down to her sneakers. Apart from some cleavage peeking out of her mostly-zipped hoodie, she was showing a lot less skin than any goblin that Cammy could remember. She chewed some gum while she lazily, nodding as she looked over the other women before glancing back at their boss.
