MAJOR UPDATE - Very long pause
Added 2020-02-28 22:42:00 +0000 UTCBad news guys, very bad news. Before I get into the details, just to be clear:
- Blue's story will be finished
- You wont be charged this months Patreon price.
- I am not quitting for good.
Im sorry guys for doing this again, but I just have to take a longer hiatus. I have been trying to finish Blue's story first, but the drawings just look bad, really bad. And the colors even worse. You can tell Im not focused 100%.
And I would never charge you a price for something mediocre.
The thing is, Im not that tired of porn itself, It's the things sorrrounding this business. After the Paypal fiasco (paypal banning me from their service), I was trying to find a haven for my stuff, someone to help me, to take my products and sell them for me. I asked around, and everyone turned me down, artists, merchants and every bank too. I worked hard to retain a certain reputation in this industry, a reputation of quality. But it seems it wasnt worth a dime.
It hit me pretty hard. I felt really lonely, like everyone was against me. Nobody wanted to touch my stuff. Years of hard work ending up a waste of time.
The only thing that kept me going was you guys. You are the best thing about this community. If you werent so positive, and acceptive, I would have never gotten this far.
But I never mentally recovered after that fiasco. I just need a bit of rest, and then I'll come back again.
On a positive note I did manage to find a site that will allow me to sell my products outside Patreon. It's Clips4Sale. But I will have to redraw many drawings in my gallery to fit their standards.
Anyway, If you guys have any questions, please feel free to ask.
I'll answer everyone I can.

You are one of the only people that make quality and quantity and it sucks you had to deal with all that crap, anyone who is a fan of you will stay and understand, I'm staying and I appreciate not getting charged for something that you think looks mediocre and working on it longer even tho I'm sure it would still look good regardless. Take as much time as you want before coming back and finishing these drawings because you are only human and if taking a break makes you feel better or taking it slow then do so! You don't want to work too hard and get sick of what you are doing so take it easy man and we are all behind you!
2020-03-01 14:35:48 +0000 UTCDamn, hope everything get better for ya(and get some rest too), you’re one of my favorite artist. Btw why is PayPal bothering you again? Have you talked with other artists about how they deal with these problems?

2020-03-01 14:10:52 +0000 UTCHello, Excuse my english. I was here a year ago, I quit for personal reasons. I re-registered today even if I am sad about this news. I still registered because I am a big fan of your work. Not only because your designs correspond exactly to my fetish passions but also for quality. I don't understand. Sir, you are among the best tickle / feet fetish designer of all time. I say "among the best" and not "the best" because it is also a matter of taste, but OBJECTIVELY you are among the best and they can be counted on the fingers of one hand. In addition, how many can boast of making real comics in addition to the unique drawing? Your solos designs are already excellent, the list of masterpieces is long. But the stories ... so fantastic! Just a recent example: the blue's capture where thabita submits blue in lanchelle's shoes. Three faces, three perfect expressions! And the passages from one box to another are always brilliant in your work. All the crusades are fantastic! The story of green is a masterpiece. When we see the first drawings published in deviantart, your art has progressed and will progress further. But you have reached a perfect level. Lots of people follow you. You are successful. This patreon proves it. Please don't be confused by administrative details. For the moment, patreon is still viable, maybe other competing platforms will arrive in the future, we will see ... (to sell, some uses "gumroad", you know?) When I think of all the crusades that remain to be led! All the possibilities of women that blue and green will put back on the right path! All these characters who will end up barefoot and tickled! All these powerful girls who will become humiliated and begging. All these stories with our two wonderful heroines. I hope you will return soon in excellent health. Like all artists, I guess you sometimes have low moments. It doesn't matter if the drawings are not finished by the end of the month, I'm sure most of the people here don't care. Here, we don't buy drawings, we subsidize, we support an artist so that he can create serenely. Hope to see you soon, and I wish you good health.
2020-03-01 13:15:33 +0000 UTCDo they have a diferent payment option than paypal?

2020-02-29 15:36:55 +0000 UTCIt was you that helped me understand it. The moment you said you could see through my drawings that Im getting burned out, It hit me. I just said to my self, damn I really need a break.

2020-02-29 10:56:38 +0000 UTCThats some good advice right there. I am trying to better the details. Things always tend to work out when you give them some time and thought. And thats what I'll do right now.

2020-02-29 10:56:09 +0000 UTCI have a promoter that I pay to post my drawings around cause I dont have the time for it anymore. I guess he did something really wrong there. Now I dont have a promoter anymore XD

2020-02-29 10:49:42 +0000 UTCThanks Cromegnome, I hope I'll be able to come back stronger than before. And make even better fetish stories

2020-02-29 10:47:47 +0000 UTCIm saddened to hear the news and your struggles. You are an incredibly talented artist. When you do decide to come back I know everyone myself included will welcome you back with open arms. Take care of yourself til then
2020-02-29 07:49:30 +0000 UTCI’m just curious..... How the hell are you supposed to use Clip4Sale? You do drawings and aren’t they a “clips” site?Just wondering how that works? But if your looking for a place to store your stuff, I’d be happy to talk with you about some ideas. I do IT work, there are paid services and DIYS things you can do I can give you a hand with. Recharge your batteries, if you’re interested, message me.

2020-02-29 03:26:51 +0000 UTCI figured. I could feel it even through texts. I get what you're going through...consider that it's good that you're self aware enough to tell what's going on instead of completely burning out and quitting for good. I'll talk to you soon about stuff :)
2020-02-29 03:15:08 +0000 UTCSorry to hear that man, the most important thing is to look after yourself, and find your piece of mind. Take as much time as you need I'll be here waiting whenever things work out for you.

2020-02-29 03:13:07 +0000 UTCDon't worry, man. Life isn't easy. All you need to do is be nice to yourself and relax. I'm sorry I can't do much for you, but don't worry, I will support and wait for you as always : )
2020-02-29 02:33:03 +0000 UTCDon't worry about it. Take the time you need to recover. I follow you b/c you're amazing and still will
Jimberg
2020-02-29 01:15:22 +0000 UTCI am with you!
2020-02-29 00:39:24 +0000 UTCDon’t let them get you down. If I have to send my patronage via carrier pigeons I’ll figure out how to do it.

2020-02-28 23:31:42 +0000 UTCDon’t worry about us, mate: you’ve got to look after yourself first. It’s unfortunate you might have to adjust your style, but then again, you’ve got this far because you’re *really* good, so no doubt you can adapt and keep moving forward! If you want my advice, don’t pressure yourself to complete drawings in the way you usually would for patrons: take a close look at your style and work out exactly which aspects you aren’t satisfied with; then focus specifically on those, one at a time, until you feel you’re back up to a standard you’re happy with. You’ll get through this rough patch, don’t worry, and we’ll stick around too — best of luck!
