August 2022 - Update

Added 2022-08-01 00:08:01 +0000 UTC

Hey all!

Thank you for the continued support of my art. It means more to me than I can truly even communicate. Here's a little update now that July is over (for me, anyway, as of writing this).

HDD Loss & Recovery:

So you'll likely remember back at the start of July I lost years of models and projects as well as personal things in the death of my main storage hard drive. I can thankfully say with much joy that I'm recovering my art making process from that very well, and I'll never be where I was before I lost it all, unfortunately, but we live and learn. I do have several people to thank for helping me recover many models and such so that I didn't need to start from absolute zero again.

Big thanks to Gadget, Rexx, Tek, Sunwhisper and the rest for helping.

Patreon:

Those of you who have been supporting me here for years will know I run this Patreon in a very hands-off kind of way. I still strongly believe that monetizing every angle of my art is neither smart nor morally something I'm comfortable doing. Hence, why I only ever have one or two tiers at a time and make my entire feed accessible at the minimum payment possible.

However, I do want to offer some more extra things for my patrons to engage with and benefit from, so if you have any non-paywall-ish non-aggressive ideas for that, I'd love to hear them.

Upcoming Art:

I intend to get 3-4 projects out this month, with one or two of them being privately taken commissions most likely. I am considering another YCH of sorts either this month or next month with the theme being “Many Goblins, handle it!” — But I'll let your mind wander on what that means for now! :)
