Weekly Update:

Hoo, it's been a busy week.

Report Summary:
- Finished commissions and some freebies
- Commission progress
- Some special offers
- Reminders about adopts

Business:
Business updates:
- Cherub adopt still available now for slightly reduced price, but I'm no longer offering the ref sheets. Buyers can still get the color adjustment and color guide, but ref sheets will have to come separately.
- May's special offers for commission discounts are live! They are Oviposition, Homestuck, and Aquatics (mermaids, kappas, fishfolk, etc.)
- Still figuring out when I'll do the egg drive and how. I'm thinking June if I have the time, or August if I don't.
- Fixed up the adoptables on my buymeacoffee page and made my commission info a bit clearer there too. https://croutoncomms.carrd.co/
- Lowered base sketch prices, raised base everything else, and special offers over on buymeacoffee. If you can't pay upfront, we can do a monthly 10% installment after 20% down payment.

Goals:
- 25/1200 USD from subscriptions.
- 441/2000 USD done for my repeatable art raffle goal.

Raffle Updates:
- Starting August 1 and then every four months, I'll run a raffle for paying subscribers; the winner gets either a custom cel-shaded image (simple background, maximum 2 characters) or a custom flat color image (simple background, maximum 3 characters.)

- The repeatable raffle prize is a fully lined and shaded piece of custom art. All add-ons are available for free. Entry into the raffle is automatic after someone purchases something from me.

Finished Works:
The following will be posted after May 15. In the meantime, here's some previews!
- Finished the flash sale sketch commission for Nuglette!
- Finished the flash sale sketch commission for 7yd1a too; this was a little trickier but they were online so I had an easy time being motivated.
- Finished Gam's Dirk-in-quicksand commission!
- Finished Gam's flash sale sketch commission too; I don't know the character but he's not having fun.
- Finished Madame Hardy's subscriber freebie! I made it match some older art, too.

Publicly posted this week:
- Forgot to post these pics of Tsukiko that I'd edited a while ago. I think the leotard is much cuter than the separate pieces she used to have.
- Did some Mahou May sketches; might clean them up into proper adopts in the future. Planning on doing a sketch a day, but I might miss a few days, probably. So far I have up to five, so that's a good start!
- WIP but spooky Kabuki troll I'm sharing.

Art WIPs:
Commission WIPs:
-
Adding more details and bodyparts to anonymous's cel-shaded commission.
- Drafting a new flash sale commission for PEnfys of their OC.
- Drafting a flat color commission for shipyarn.

Other Art WIPs:
-
No update on the next Puella Magi adopt.
- Nothing new re: merch.
- Artist for "The Turnips of St. Judith" got back to me! I can't show the image just yet, but they're making good progress!
- Haven't been working on Somnarine's ref this week.
- More Mahou May sketches to come; they've all got the same poses to save time but hopefully I can vary them up more later.

Writing Updates:
Series:
-
Marzipan, focusing right now on Milk And Honey, has had no progress at the moment but hopefully will next week.
-
No progress this week on Magical Yakuza Girl but I'm thinking of trying to be more faithful to the dream that inspired it; maybe that will fix it.
- God Will Understand
has been broken up into three parts because I ended up thinking of three major sex scenes. I've outlined the overarching plot, but I need to outline the individual parts.

Standalone stories:
- Meanwhile, I've condensed the plot of Naughty Little Helpers to just being about Knoell getting fucked and transformed by Krampus. If I ever write someone getting fucked by Rudolph it'll have to be some other time.

Other writing:
-
Camp NaNo project about gay middle aged space pirates still being vaguely entertained as a thought.
- Yasmina the Minigame Witch character sheet still on hold.

carrd and buymeacoffee update

Changed some things on my BMAC and carrd. "The Lost Goddess" is now free because I'm not interested in it anymore but someone might still enjoy it. Meanwhile, I've changed the previews for "Knot A Problem" and "March of Robots 2021".

Update: New Year plans

Happy New Year! I unfortunately have had some Complications in my home life come up. Still working on commissions, subscribestar still up, still selling stickers and stories; I just have to speed up my plans of moving out this year. Might bring my brother. Definitely bringing the cats.
If you can help support us at this time through any of the presented options, I'd be very grateful. No gofundme or kickstarter because I don't have paypal, but I'll keep working on commissions. Currently still working through my queue as well. 
Various other things for sale: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/croutonKnight/extras
