Added 2020-01-04 14:43:52 +0000 UTCHey everyone, here's the monthly post of everything that happened this month and what's coming next!
The rewards for December were just sent, so in case you didn't get yours, make sure your pledge got through and send me a message so we can fix that!
Now, poll results:
Pin-up Poll:
Alarielle - 72
Edelgard - 101
Onyxia (Lady Katrana Prestor) - 130 (Winner)
Psylocke - 119
Voyeur Poll:
Pha ... Mercy - 149

So we'll be getting a little more Korra and Asami this month as well, plus Lady Katrana Prestor =D
Here's what scheduled for January so far:
- Pin-up (NSFW) - Lady Katrana Prestor. I already have the idea in mind, so expect a preview early next week.
- Voyeur (NSFW) - Korra and Asami ;)
- Pin-up (NSFW) - The 2nd pin-up I'm still considering what to do. I have a few characters in mind but I still didn't decide which.
- ??????????? - The last image is a complete mistery. Like I said above, I have many drawings in my head atm, but not yet decided which will be made this month.
What happened in December and what's planned for the coming months?
Some of you might have noticed several "change of plans" in December so I want to clarify a bit what happened.
Basically I had a bit of back and forth between some drawings and what they meant to me. While this is obviously my work, it's still something that I express myself on doing, and I'm well aware of where my drawings might end up when I post them online.
And drawings like Balance, indeed meant more for me than the usual drawing, and I didn't want to see it end on places like that.
I had a very unusual year, which was great in terms of personal growth but a very fucked up year in terms of personal loss. Not only I already had a lot in my mind from my mother passing away in july, another close person passed away in the week between christmas and new year's eve.
And well, I'm really not a robot. I'd be lying if I said those things don't affect my mood or creativity. I had a lot of self-re-evaluation in december, hence why there was a bit of back and forth on drawings that I had planned.
And what I noticed is that I wanted to make more drawings that have more "meaning". I wanna work in expressions more, be a little more "artsy" with things. Don't worry, that won't affect our regular schedule of tits and ass, because I love drawings those as well.
But the conclusion I had was that, If I didn't want to fall on the "generic sexy lady formula" before, now I REALLY want to stay away from it. I don't want to look back at my drawings over the years and just see a catalogue of dozens of characters just "standing there looking sexy". I want more drawings that I look from years from now and say "fuck, this one is amazing".
So what's exactly planned for 2020 on the long term?
- I want to make more Iris drawings. It's really REALLY amazing to be able to work on her. Because it's kinda like my personal mark in the world. I want to make more crazy and unusual expressions, explore different settings and all of that. I usually make around 7-8 drawings of her per year, so expect more like 10-12.
- I heard you guys, so there's more Disney princess coming. The ones I already have the drawing planned are Ariel, Mulan, Rapunzel. There's also character from games scheduled this year or simply characters that I want to re-draw.
- I want to explore more drawings like Breath of the Wild and Balance I did in 2019. Drawings that have that nice, calm feel to it.
- I want to explore more intimate drawings, like kissing scenes, couples, etc. I really loved the idea behind Korra and Asami drawing that I just posted. But since it's my first attempt on the theme, it's not quite "there" yet in terms of expression and feel. And I want to improve on that.
- A lot more tits and ass because we all love that. =D
Like I mentioned, that won't change our schedule of pin-up and voyeur works, so no worries there. If anything I just want to make better images.
So, now to leave 2019 behind, learn with everything that happened and improve, but for fuck sake, let's have a better 2020!

2020-01-07 12:52:32 +0000 UTCLOVE Iris drawings, ive been trying to snipe the back catalog with my monthly reward :D
2020-01-07 05:35:08 +0000 UTCThanks! It's something that I always try to do regardless of the character. I think it's important to make sure the character is doing something .... that character would do. I like to explore little scenes or situations that would make sense for that character "off screen" =) And I hope you have a great year as well!

2020-01-05 23:54:56 +0000 UTCNeroXLIV is an artist I've gotten really into since he makes a real effort with every piece, yeah they're sexy babes tits and ass etc. but they're always a different pose or theme and reflect the character(s) being represented, not just Generic Sexy Front-on Pinup with a nondescript background. Anyway it sounds like you're going for a similar thing which is great. Loving your work, you're getting better and better and wishing you all the best for the New Year!

2020-01-05 05:59:18 +0000 UTCA few clarifications. I did include more resolutions before, but there were a few issues: There are 3 main aspect ratios: 21:9 This is ultra wide resolutions (3840x1600 and 2560x1080). And they simply don't work well with my images. Since most of my images are vertical, there's just not enough content on the sides to make a nice wallpaper. The crop is too narrow. 16:9 2560x1440 and 1920x1080. This is the standart screen resolution on most monitors. Thing is, a 2560x1440 wallpaper can be applied to a 1920x1080 screen as well, so there's really no need for both images. Windows will automatically scale down a 1440p image to a 1080p monitor and the end result is the same. 4:3 Older monitors still have 1280x1024 resolution, so this is included as well. The only resolution I'm not supporting anymore is Ultra Wide, simply because my images don't look good on that resolution.

2020-01-05 04:25:45 +0000 UTCHi Krys, as always, I’m happy with your work. But lately there are no works that could be made a desktop background. This is not because of the work itself, but because of the permission you use for it. Previously, you included more different resolutions and you could pick one for your monitor. Now one is too small and too stretched, and the second is only a cropped part of the work. Thank you for your attention and sorry for the quality of the text.

2020-01-05 03:00:55 +0000 UTCThanks, I'm glad you liked them! I think it's really great to be able to explore those things. I think there's a lot of room to improve and grow. Specially in the Iris images.
Lee
2020-01-04 23:46:18 +0000 UTCThank you, I think it's great to have that type of communication. And it actually helped me a lot in terms of figuring out what I wanted to do.
Lee
2020-01-04 23:41:58 +0000 UTCThank you! It's something that I plan to expand upon. I think those types of drawings have a lot of potential, and I definitely wnat to make them better.
Lee
2020-01-04 23:40:12 +0000 UTCThank you! I actually use many of them as wallpapers myself. I really like how they look as an overal composition. And Iris series are some of my favourite drawings to make =D
Lee
2020-01-04 23:37:44 +0000 UTCThat's the plan =D
Lee
2020-01-04 23:36:53 +0000 UTCglad to hear =D
Lee
2020-01-04 23:36:41 +0000 UTCThanks, I actually do plan on making more characters from Korra/ATLA. Not sure which ones I'd do, but I certainly plan to explore more of the series
Lee
2020-01-04 23:21:26 +0000 UTCThank you, and I appreciate the ongoing support!
Lee
2020-01-04 22:37:13 +0000 UTCAhh I knew I was supporting the right artist! I like how you always reach out to us. For me personally ,,tits and ass'' are just partial details of what makes you great. I enjoy the whole thing when you draw it and I'm very much down for artworks with more ,,feelings'' to them. That said, really sucks how 2019 turned out for you despite making such progress in your drawing skills. Wish you all the best and nothing but positivity in 2020!

2020-01-04 17:52:35 +0000 UTCI very much enjoyed the affectionate scene with Korra and Sami. It just has a great feel to it, and really feels like a moment captured in time. I am 100% in support of more couple scenes like this!

2020-01-04 17:37:34 +0000 UTCthat's nice to hear about your plans for 2020, I think your sfw drawings like Balance, Breath of the Wild and some others like your Dodongo really stand out as beautiful pieces of art and are really nice for a wallpaper too. So it will be nice to see more of them :p and more Iris too, I really love the sets of her and seeing the different expressions 😁

2020-01-04 16:12:30 +0000 UTCFirstly, loved the reward files from last month, with the multiple variants of Iris being my absolute favourite! And as for your future plans, I'm definitely on board. I really liked your Breath of the Wild and Balance paintings, particularly the painterly style of the latter, so more of that kind of painting is very welcome. Disney Princesses are also a fun addition, personally I'm looking forward to Rapunzel the most (I saw Tangled for the first time in 2019 and ended up watching it 3 times total 😹) More intimate scenes between characters with kissing and couples sounds like a great idea too and I'd certainly like to see you paint that. And of course, even MOAR Iris is always a wonderful thing! It's always fun to see you put her in new scenarios with new expressions (she's so absurdly adorable looking in the cookies painting). More boobies and bums is also never a bad thing! 😉😹 So with all that in mind, looking forward to another year of marvellous and sexy artwork 😸

2020-01-04 15:21:18 +0000 UTCSo you want drawings with more feeling? That can work wonders if used right!

2020-01-04 15:16:53 +0000 UTCLooks like a fun month ahead!
Alex Clerm
2020-01-04 15:11:51 +0000 UTCListen, Patreon is full of paintings of women just standing there looking sexy, so anything you do apart from that will be great. I'd like to suggest Lin Beifong again, along these lines. You know how great she is. She's not the character that immediately pops to mind, especially on Sexy Pinup Patreon, but I think you'd do something unique with her.

2020-01-04 14:52:08 +0000 UTCWoo hoo Ariel :)
2020-01-04 14:51:55 +0000 UTCLove the outlook for the new year Krys. Looking forward to more artwork like the recent Korra, BotW and Captain Marvel cause they were great! Thanks for the great 2019 and am really looking forward to 2020.
