A Real One

Times have gotten tough for me lately as mentioned in this update post. If you can spare the extra cash, I'd be very grateful. I can't offer anything else for now, so this is a donation tier through-and-through (You are not expected to stay subscribed in this tier). All rewards are still matched to The Financier Tier.

FW Update34: Making Way for McCloud 2

Yes, it's true. I'm finally returning to "In the House of McCloud Part 2".

Since it's a Halloween-themed set, I'm hoping to have it finished in time for the holiday period. Thanks to the revolving door of commissions lately (of which, I am VERY grateful), I haven't been able to touch this work since last year. But folks have been diligently waiting on the completion of this follow up since the original Mother's Day set from 2024. I think it's high-time I make good on that patience, so I'm gonna bite the bullet for finances and go all-in on finishing this, somehow.

For those with in-progress comms, please allow me this divergence in schedule for now, just so I can finally, FINALLY have McCloud 2 done and off my schedule. Near-complete orders will still get their final push, others will receive at least one update this month. I'm expecting these to spill into November, but there's only 9 left to do, so it shouldn't be much longer than that. For those who want to order SOMETHING this October, I have a brand new deal of simplified YCHs on offer.

I understand that this is some blindsiding news to my clients, but I consider this collab work to be part of my delivery backlog. Meaning that as per my stated goal this year, I intend to have it finished. As was the case in 2025, I'll be releasing more WIP previews, with fuller view access for those in higher tiers. Again, this set is more or less being worked on for free, so any support (be it through purchase of YCHs or simply with your continued subscription) is greatly appreciated.

Thank you, and sorry for the inconvenience,
FakeryWay

FW Update33: Comms Backlog is Almost Clear!

Good news, everyone! I've brought down my backlog of like 50-something images down to about 19 left. I'll be touching base with the remaining clients for how this month will go, and then moving on to the next step: reaching out to the folks awaiting business. This will be me checking in with the 14 or so people on standby to see if they still wanna kick things off (I imagine most of them have moved on lol). After they're clear, I'll OFFICIALLY reopen comms to all backers again. Just need a bit more time! As like last month, YCHs will are available for order in the meantime.

So far, the coloring-assistant experiment from last month has actually been very helpful. I'll be demoing it out a bit longer before I call my current structure a success, though. The team is still green, so I wanna make sure I've optimized the handoff process and see how well they work once fully-acclimated. This may mean some refinements on my end, or even contracting more folks abroad. We'll see how it turns out.

Lastly... it's August! Those of you who've been around for the past 4 years may recall that this is time of year where I do art doodles for folks who draw my Sampson & Jewel characters. Considering how packed my schedule is as of late, I have no idea HOW I'll manage it this time, but I wanna keep up the tradition if I can help it! The art might as scratchy as ever on my end, but I'll do my best once it goes LIVE!

Thank you,
FakeryWay

FW Update32: No New Comms for July, Clearing Order Backlog

Hey everyone. I'm gonna be skipping the opening for normal comms this month. I've got too many people on standby (both paid and awaiting business) and I need to get them all squared away where I can. I am truly blessed to have so many folk eager to do business with me, so I better get through the backlog of those in line so we can start again fresh. In the meantime, YCHs will still be available for this month, as launched here.

To aid in my pursuit, I've hired fellow artists of mine to help me get through this backlog. I have previous experience in working alongside them, so I have full confidence in their work ethic. Currently, I am training them to get my rendering style just right before I put them on any work. To be transparent about this happening behind the scenes: I will still be doing ALL of the linework and writing. For now, the only plan is to deal out the busywork of coloring to them so I can get my hands on orders faster. I am not trying to do less work, I'm trying to get the work done.

I've been at this crossroads for a while now, and I have to decide: Either downsize my business to better suit my sole pair of hands, or scale-up and expand my output to meet the incoming orders. I hope this new production pipeline is okay for all of you, at the very least temporarily. I know folks tend to get iffy when they don't know 100% of what (or who) exactly they're paying for, so I wanted to let you all know ahead of time. As always, your patience with me is greatly, sorely appreciated!

Thank you,
FakeryWay
