What to expect. ^^

So here we are. My own subscription service. Please, allow me to tell you a tad about me and what to expect in this whereabouts.

If you're here odds are you're already familiar with my artworks. Shinies and lockables. Lots of guys with a few gals for diversity. You know the deal. My aim is to expand more and more into my own BDSM setting, The Black Mirror. A facility of sorts where kinksters' fantasies come true, but there'll be works outside The Mirror's setting as per usual.

The thing is, if you're planning on pledging on any of my tiers, I'd like to have an honest word with you.

As of now, life's getting hard to keep up with. As things are, I can't make a living out of my arts. Which is pretty damn frustrating. It seems like some people enjoy my works so it has to be frustrating for them too. And that's where this whole thing starts. Getting support would help me keep up making art, even if it's at odd intervals, and all in all, keep me afloat in these weird times I'm living. And I'd make my best to reciprocate your help. But hand over heart, I don't think I will be able to properly make it up to you. You would have my eternal and unending gratitude and whatever I can scrap for you people, but unless this thing takes off in a spectacular way, I'm afraid the needs of the dayjob will hinder my performance.

Just wanted to be perfectly honest on what you might expect.

And what are the goods, you may ask.

Well, so far I have come to this list of stuff I will be able to share with you whenever I have the chance to (Check the tiers for details on what's included on each one). In no particular order:

-HD versions of all my pictures.

-.PSD/.CLIP files with the layers and effects whenever possible.

-Access to exclusive lore snippets about The Black Mirror. Like hidden small facts about the setting for flavor for those who, like me, are into the more obscure aspects of a story.

-Speaking of stories. Some tiers would have access to scripts and storyboards of comics and stories I have never rendered into proper works (and some that one day might come to be...). A bit of a look behind the curtain. ^^

-For those who like the arty side of things or for interested fellow artists, I will try to share some art hints & tips and, if possible, tutorials. If I can get away with it, I'll try to involve other artists friends in this, but I can't make promises on that. :P

-For people who like to get their own characters on the stage, and since I'm gonna need a bunch of people going around their business in The Mirror, some tiers will have the option to include your OCs as cameos. Actually very excited about this for I feel it would bring a lot of life to the halls of The Mirror. ;)

-And last but not least, the YCH raffles. Whenever I make a YCH auction, I'll use the same template for a character of the choosing of one lucky pledger. The winner will be chosen at random in a raffle. How many tickets you have for said raffle depends on your tier (check the tier description for details). Be aware this won't be a common occurrence, but I'll try my best to keep them coming as much as possible.

If you have come this far and are still reading, thank you so much for your patience and I hope you would consider supporting my work.

Thank you all!

Yours truly.

Lord Black
