Brain Breakage
Added 2021-12-10 12:22:16 +0000 UTCOne of the most frustrating, not to mention humiliating, things an artist of any kind can go through is art block. It's really difficult to talk about because it can really sound silly, especially if it unexpectedly goes on for a protracted period of time like this.
It becomes especially bad to discuss when one has obligations like I do; it is extremely unfair to you, the patrons, to have to deal with this when you are helping so much, and have paid for a service I'm not providing. Now I will be getting art done, and I'll get as much done this weekend as I can to make up for the gap in uploads.
First, some updates:
I have been working this month on various projects. One such thing has been The Dragon's Foolish Quest, the longer form story in comic form, the prologue of which I completed some time ago. I was hoping the prologue would be a bigger hit with more responses than it's gotten, but I am still determined to go ahead with the project, having put so much work into the outlining of the world, scripting, characterisation and inevitable end. I know where the whole thing is ultimately going, but the debate I'm having at the moment is how much emphasis to put on the journey. I was thinking of having a similar 'feel' to that of Homer's Odyssey, with some parallels to that classic, only with vore and other macro/micro kink themes within. I'm not sure how interested most folks are in that, so it's been weighing on me in the writing process, which has been slow as I want to really get it 'right'.
I also have a couple of commissions to complete, and I am going to begin work in earnest this weekend. One is fairly simple, while the other is a full comic page, which has often tended to become draining given how laborious it is, especially in maintaining consistency of character design from panel to panel. Still it will be done.
Onto the $10 Patreon-exclusive art for this month. By the end of next week I hope to have at least two of those done. I may need some suggestions, though, on which characters to choose, and what scenarios you'd like to see them in. My head keeps going blank every time I touch pen to page, so drop your thoughts in the comments below please.
Finally, thank you all so much for sticking by me here. I greatly appreciate the support, and I'll be producing a lot more content through the coming weeks as promised!
