So much work! And that abundance of work leads to a lot of gaps between previews that I apologize for. I know the last one was fairly early in the story, this one is about the mid point, and, as I mentioned, short of a change in my payment cycle will probably be the last preview of the story before it's full release. This took a bit, trying to research exactly how weddings work and trying to ge...

A right motley crew. Contains the first part, mostly as a refresher (and I made some minor edits). Obviously not erotic, just some Custodes talking their plans for the coming crusade. First battle will be in November, and things will be getting a bit more dicey then!
This is an interesting kind of project, and will probably need a huge editing run at the end to fill it out more than just...
Just gonna be a quick runthrough of the names today, since I wanna focus on writing for the next little while (Moxie's Mates 10, A Harem His Own, and with this paint job completed, there's also the next part of the Slow Grow Crusade story).
So there's Sister Superior Yuliya, with her helm and fancy tabard, Sister Tryphena, Sister Alice, Sister Artemisia, and Sister Heliodora.
Two more characters in the Sanguine Angels. Skip, the Custode on the left, and Aelia, the Sister of Silence at her side. Skip has always been the type of every-girl, preferring her work out in the proverbial boonies of the Imperium agricultural worlds. She's laid back, and, good as she is with her Guardian Spear, knows when best to avoid a conflict. Aelia, by contrast, was picked from her home ...
2020-10-11 17:21:14 +0000 UTC View PostSo quick bit, not a preview, just a bit about the commission itself that I think it'd be fair to share with you, my supportive following.
So, it's currently around 20,000 words. Impressive, and you'd think that would be awesome, it'll be out soon since it was a 28,000 word estimate. Unfortunately, I'm at 20,000 and about 8,000 words over the estimate for where I thought I'd be in the sto...
An early preview for my Patrons. Here it is, all but I think about 5 of my painted models that didn't fit into proper squads (and my Inquisitors of course). I was asked to submit for Armies on Parade, which has a few restrictions on the are you can put everything in, but other than it's go nuts, so this is larger than a Strike Force, I'd ballpark around 2600 points or so that I've painted since...
2020-10-04 12:27:29 +0000 UTC View PostThis is Halloween, this is Halloween! I feel bad having popped the semi-spooky option last month with Arachne, wasn't even thinking ahead. Ah well, time for this month's options!

2020-10-02 16:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostSo another public post to keep people up to date. I'd like to apologize that things have been more painting than writing lately? I've been trying to clear the backlog with the Slow Grow a thing, plus some of the new rules meaning I can't field my primed models without a huge points disadvantage... Eventually the backlog will end, or at least become mostly squads so it's like, one paint a week.<...
2020-09-18 17:49:29 +0000 UTC View PostWhoo, this preview could pretty much be a commission on its own! (... Alright, maybe half of one considering me.) A lot had to go into this scene for future setup, and I wish that the whole story could be taken so slowly, but then it'd be like, 100k. XD
Anyway, preview 3!
"Ryan barely slept that night, too busy daydreaming about how their date was going to go. He didn’t even...
It's been busy busy busy trying to get everything I need done in the new apartment (money's also extremely tight... =_=") so forgive it was a while between previews. The story is progressing nicely, so enjoy yourself an exerpt from the most recent check in with the client!

So a few of you probably know from my Discord server, but yeah, my internet has been down since a little after uploading the A Harem His Own preview. I guess I was a little rough with my modem or something, but it just stopped working after I had moved it to clean, so big oof. I haven't been able to work on writing since, with everything locked up in cloud saves or Google Docs.
I have be...
Alright, back to the grind with a fresh commission. This one's a bit of a longer preview, but then again, it's also intended to be a bit of a longer story as well. This is also the first commission that is also a pure Menagerie tale (unlike the LessienxMatty works, which are kind of a Menagerie side story). There's also some minor character setup for Alice, for some other major works I ha...
2020-08-09 14:02:41 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome to Madam Materia's Magical Menagerie! Wow, it feels like forever since I've said those words. XD This was the voted story on the poll, since I couldn't decide which one to introduce the newest member of the Menagerie staff, conceived by Error Prone, Alice. And no worries, she'll be with us for a good while after all this is you like her.
So, this is something I've wanted to post up here for a bit, but there wasn't much of an entry point. That is, I'm the type to do stuff like keep journals and extensive notes from my RPG tables and whatnot, even occasionally turning them into new stories and characters (Kasumi actually came from one such origin!). My currently active Starfinder game, I keep my character's captains log, and form...
2020-07-28 15:41:31 +0000 UTC View PostAnother public update post for all the peeps.
So, everything has worked out with the new apartment, I signed the lease yesterday and got me move in date. This time next week I'm going to be moving into my new home!
That does mean a few things though, the biggest one as it affect you all, my Patrons and readers, is that I'll be gone a few days. I'll have to move in, get the interne...
Alright, so update on the emergency situation from a few weeks back.
I've found a nice little place all my own, so I'll be safe in that regard, not gonna be homeless or anything. I officially move in Aug 1st, which will probably mean that there's a small disruption in my uploads while I wait for my internet to be moved over to the new place. I'm going to try and get Caregiver do...
Been a while since a Menagerie tale preview. Kinda forgot my format (and a bit of the Matty character, since I haven't written her in so long). ^///^" I think it was like this, the opening scene.
Hopefully you enjoy!

Damn, it's been forever since I was able to put up something. Those of you probably know why, it hasn't been a particularly kind couple of months, without much sign of things getting better in the short term. This piece was pretty long, and required a good amount of back and forth with the client to get every little bit just right, so mix those two things, and the time frame wasn't too bad. Wor...
2020-06-30 11:51:01 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone, this is a matter of emergency that I felt needed to be brought to people's awareness.
Some may know, I currently live in a shitty room, with a frankly shitty person. Said shitty person, feels as if I have "disrespected" them, to the point that I am being kicked out. I have two months to somehow manage to find a new place (something I have attempted to do for a long while ...
Whoo, this one took a lot of back and forth go get just right, but it's finally ready. Last preview before the end of the commission, I'm hoping to have it out before the end of the month. It's a bit of a long one, but, enjoy. XD

2020-06-11 13:23:35 +0000 UTC View PostSorry it's been a slow... While. there was some sort of error and I lost a bunch of work on the current commission. The next preview was supposed to be a while back, but I've had to try and rewrite, and recapture what I had.
That aside though, I've been thinking about a potential concept. Kind of a "What If?" scenario. In particular, it came from facts revealed in "Stop, Rewind, Regrow",...
Alright, so, Patreon seems to have placed it purely on creators to talk to their Patrons about their roll-out of taxes. Patreon has become required by international law to charge sales tax on Patronage, which, I mean, is fine. Sure. I really do not agree with the method of implementation, but I'm going to try my best (as someone good at math, not someone good at taxes) to explain it, as well as...
2020-05-22 12:34:14 +0000 UTC View PostI've requested time off from commissions (once my current project is done), and there's new factors to consider for the next original piece. I figured my supporters deserved to have a say in the next piece, however that vote appears to have hit a deadlock. So these are a few of the backburner ideas that will fit with introducing a new (possibly temporary) staff member.

2020-05-17 21:36:36 +0000 UTC View PostSo I've been mulling this over for a while, with so many commissions rolling in, and so much more Patreon support lately (apologies for a slow feed btw, been sliding in and out of illness again), I should probably put a cap on how many commissions I'll take at a time. I'll be making this public, as well as probably posting something about it on external sites, but here's what I've come up with....
2020-05-13 11:23:50 +0000 UTC View PostOne story, many characters. Getting a look at the rest of the major cast for this story in the second preview. I've actually been really enjoying writing this project. XD It's honestly been keeping me up, so I hope you enjoy!

2020-05-02 23:05:42 +0000 UTC View PostChapters? What is this nonsense? :P
This is a longer one, intended to be a multi-part, so there's a bigger focus on character development. Since you'll be with them for like, five stories instead of just one. So meet Sam, our main protagonist. Or one of them, expect the "Liberty Girls" in Preview 2 sometime soon-ish.

Finally finished all the Seraphim!
Look at them all there together! Can't wait to put them on the table when Isolation is over.
These were a priority, since I couldn't assemble them without them being painted, so with those done I can slow painting down a bit. 1 model on days I want to paint. But I got big commissions still to do, so Imma be focusing on diving into that.
It's FINALLY done. Illness was not kind to me, but with this off the plate I should be back into the swing of things.
This story was nice. A happy couple with a bit of financial trouble. Solvable only, of course, by some lactation shenanigans. Or, as the public release will say:

Dedicated painting days are swell. And help keep me sane. :D (You cannot prove I'm insane yet!)
Anyway, more of the Seraphim out of the pile. Superior Wynd and an inferno pistol weilding Rita. Only three more till the ones I need for my basic list are done, then I'm probably gonna drop to one model on the painting days. I got into a writing mood this morning and felt sticking to schedule...
