Time for another ramble session I guess. A few big things going on in my life right now so there isn't much I want to dwell on. I guess the first big thing, if you somehow missed it, I got approved on SubsribeStar finally!!!!!! I said I'd go into more detail on the last post, so I'll do that now. At the moment I don't really plan on having finished pieces being secluded behind a paywall. I personally find its a bit shitty to lock things away forever, but I understand that it may be a necessary evil. So what am I offering as an incentive?
More updates, not just once a month
In progress projects/animations/stills
Polls to help decide how things will flow
My love and gratitude
All the technical and behind the scenes stuff
Name in animation credits (if you want it)
This list is going to probably change a lot over the next few months as I figure out what to offer without restricting the overall output of my works. I also just dropped the prices on everything given how crazy things have been economy wise (to be honest too, i set those prices months ago waiting for approval). I want my art/porn to be accessible independent of your financial situation. A lot of this stuff is me working through my own interests and sexuality so it also feels disingenuous to gate off this kind of stuff as this has been a big part in helping understand myself. If you haven't noticed or have but didn't say anything, yes I'm now the big gay 🏳️⚧️. (HRT Might start next month!!!!!!) Its been quite a rollercoaster the past few months but the dust has finally settled so I feel more comfortable coming out about this outside of slight tweaks to my profile.
But getting back on track, I also want to use Substar to help get voice actors for my animations. I've said before I want to work with VA's but I don't want to beg for freebies, but I also don't have income still. I also would love for this to become my career, cause who wouldn't want to do art for a living? But I do need to eat, and VA's need to be payed, so if you want to see the quality of my works go up, please consider contributing in some way.
Outside of Substar, my recovery has been going great. I'm on strength training as I've regained full mobility in my wrist (way ahead of what my doc predicted) and I've been feeling a lot better. Still got pain every other day but its been much better. The general malaise that has loomed over me has also started to lift, and the art block finally feels like its leaving. Still navigating moving out as it has involved a possible house purchase thanks to my fiance, which if either happens expect my output to increase drastically since I won't have to walk on eggshells with making my art. Having a more dedicated space too will let me finally get over my fears of voice acting some of my characters too, I've already got plans to build a tiny quite booth so I can moan in piece.
That stuff aside, whether you decide to support me or not, I appreciate everyone who has followed so far, and has stuck around to get off to these weird little fantasies. It has helped me overcome a few fears and it never ceases to amaze me that I've even been able to pull 500+ people here and a few other hundred across all my accounts. From the bottom of my dead cold heart, I thank all of you, and please consider Going to my Substar and at the very minimum taking a glance.
