December | Blog - Merry Christmas (and other holidays)

I do greatly appreciate the continued support of the higher limited tiers, but I think it is unsustainable for me to continue as is, so as mentioned previously, starting next year the Super Hard ($14) and Nightmare ($32) tiers will be suspended and will only do those requests through google forms starting in February (and single images for the users who are subbed every 6 months in the $5 tier). This is mostly so I can control how many requests I take in a month instead of needing to suspend/reactivate tiers on an all-or-nothing basis. When I open the forms, I will make a post announcing it. Note: Being Subscribed to the paid tiers will NOT affect your chances of being accepted for Google Form selection; these will also be open for any user to apply to.

I can't remove people off of those tiers manually, so I will be forcing an indefinite 100% discount for the limited tiers. If you'd like to still support me otherwise, let me know and I will adjust it after you change tiers to one of the lower ones. The $5 tier will still have a (Super Hard Image) request available every 6 months of subscription, so if you'd like to have those as a "guaranteed request", you can downgrade to that one. For $5 tier users only (in the past and future), It's a bit of a pain in the ass to calculate exactly what month you have paid for due to the limited information SubscribeStar gives me, so if possible, please let me know how many months of the $5 tier you have subscribed to and I will update the trello with a tally to keep track.

After I clear out the current Super Hard and Nightmare backlog, I will get around to the users who have enough months of the $5 tier piled up. As mentioned before, if I haven't gotten around to your request yet in the backlog and it's not in the "Working" section on the trello, you can still change it. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to DM me.

Note: You will be unable to DM me unless you are at least subscribed to the free tier due to how SubscribeStar functions. If for some reason you need to reach me elsewhere, you can DM me on Bluesky, Itaku, FurAffinity, or DeviantArt. My username is the same on all websites.

November | Blog - Super Hard/Nightmare Suspension in January

I mentioned previously that I may go through with it, but in January, I will completely suspend the Super Hard and Super Nightmare tiers and limit the paid requests for those tiers to the google form application system. Since December will be the last month for the old requests, I won't end the Nightmare tier early. So after December, I will place those tiers on an indefinite 100% discount as they won't provide any benefits anymore. I probably won't have the forms open in January, since I know I'll need some more time to deal with the backlog that's growing. Again, sorry for the delays.

In other news, classes end in early December and I am off this week, so I am attempting to get several sketches and finish some commissions/requests soon. I started to feel a strong burnout since around August, so I'm hoping the ability to adjust the amount of requests per month in the future instead of only being able to do a somewhat "All-or-Nothing" approach will help me a little bit. Around the time I open the forms again, I'll update the rentry to include some more information on Request limitations, mostly for anyone new.

Thank you for the support.

October | Blog

I still don't have much to say this month, so this one will also be short.

As mentioned previously, the vacation mode will end at the start of next month, so payments and requests will resume. The Super Nightmare ($32) tier will be disabled for another month or so before I re-enable it. Currently, I am attempting to sketch some commissions I've received and finish a few more old requests. I will probably lump the older request source files into a post after I get more of them done.

In the future (probably next year), I am currently considering retiring the Super Hard ($14) and Super Nightmare ($32) tiers and moving it completely to the previously used "Extra Requests" function (The Google Form Requests) I did before to give others a chance at getting those tier requests. I am not completely sure if I will though, but if I decide to I will mention it again.

Thank you for the support.

September | Blog

I'm still slowly working on the backlog when I feel like it. Next month will continue to be a subscription pause as planned and should resume payment in November. I mostly wanted September to be personal projects time, so in October I will dial it back a bit so I can finish the backlog.

Dad's Health:

The doctors have decided to go through with the surgery next year around January. Supposedly. He's been doing fine so I'll probably stop with this section for a while.

Other:

I was thinking about not posting the blog for the month since I had so little to say that I haven't already said previously, but I eventually figured I should at least continue with posting it anyway. I've been drawing a lot of Dandy's World (and adjacent) things recently to fill the void. I can't draw everything I want, but I can get away with very odd things, so it's something at least.

Thank you for the support.

August | Blog

As mentioned previously, I will be deleting all of my NSFW and "borderline" images from my galleries on the 28th (delayed a few days due to various circumstances). The folders marked as "to purge in August" are mostly accurate, but I might remove more as a precaution, so save everything you like. Apologies for the delays on drawings, I've been in stuck in a loop since I learned about the bill where I keep switching between the two states of "why bother, I need to delete this later anyway" and "draw out of spite anyway, the bill will definitely get blocked because the wording is too broad".

Next month in addition to October, I will be temporarily suspending payments on SubscribeStar to give myself time to catch up and take a small break. Requests will be suspended until November, but commissions will remain open. I wanted to have a catchup month earlier, but due to the whole bill situation, I had decided to give more time for NSFW requests to come in. I've felt like I was going to explode for a while. I also start college classes for the semester today, so we'll see how that goes in terms of time spent.

July | Blog

Since August is the month I will be deleting my NSFW artwork (around the 20th), I will have to ask that going forward, all references for requests should be SFW only. In a reference context, I am pretty sure featureless breasts are OK, so if possible, delete all nipples. I am also running a follower poll to gauge interest in a change to the $5 tier. https://subscribestar.adult/posts/1974080

Currently, I am trying to finish these comic commissions and the last of the NSFW requests. Next month I will do a final NSFW sketch poll. (Newer) Requests will take a backseat as I try to finish up any loose NSFW ends (commissions, requests, personal images etc.), and September with possibly October will be SubscribeStar break months for catchup purposes. I'll probably be extremely annoyed all September.
