Content

Hello everyone,

I wanted to notify everybody that I will be pausing billing for the upcoming month as I continue to work on a much... girthier... v_10 release, and more info I will be going into detail below.

First off, if you're not sure how billing pauses work in patreon, it's all rather simple: you basically don't have to do anything. Access will continue as normal, except you won't be billed for the month until billing resumes as usual (which I will announce with a good amount of time beforehand). 

Now as to the why. There's a few I will be covering here:

v_10 Release

Simply put, there's too much I've been working on that I want to include in the v_10 release to finish rendering (and finish working on, in some cases), before the april 5th deadline I had initially aimed at. Some stuff I had already mentioned, and some I have been working on behind the scenes, so I will share a list here:

Emi and Fuki's Skimpy Seductions continuation and finale

Pinup sets from the monthly polling for Hitome and Jessica

The second entry to Cali's Welcome to Unreality reboot

Reboot and refreshes for Juliana, Sadie, and Alice

Everything is mostly done on the building and compositing side, but rendering will take some extra time, along with some final fine tuning of the reboot/refreshers.

So my aim is to release some teaser v_10 content on april 5th, and continue to release work as it is finished throughout the month, culminating with the fully bundled packs in their entirety when it's all done.

This brings me to my next point...

Hiatus

I've been talking for a while now about how I want to make the switch to blender as far as workflow goes, and to do so I need to really take some time to get to know the software more than I currently do.

As things stand, however, the month to month content release schedule does not pair up well enough with taking the time I need to learn, so a hiatus is in order to dedicate some time to learning the ins and outs of working on blender, as well as porting the characters over to different rigs outside of daz, reworking the materials so they work well in cycles and eevee, and a slew of other minutiae.

What this means for work post v_10 on patreon is that I will keep billing paused as I brush up on learning and character work. I will continue posting, however it will be a lot of WIPs and such as I get everything together before restarting anew fully. In the meantime, access to pledgers will be unaffected, as mentioned before.

On other things, I just need a break from monthly work for a bit. Truth be told, after my time off last year grieving the loss of my mother, I jumped straight into work without much regard for other pertinent things I need to take care of in regards to her belongings and such. So I do need some time off just to get some aspects of my life in order moving forward.

And, last but not least...

Updating the Archives

The work backlog has been due for updating for some time now, and I'm happy to announce a new revised archive is almost done. 

The new archives will include the entirety of work to date, fully sorted, and with revised tags and files for easier access. Along with the extended version of v_10, this too will be out during April.

That about wraps up this announcement. For the time being, keep an eye out for the upcoming releases in the next few days, and then a lot more in the next few weeks. I'm very excited to be taking these steps moving into blender, and I hope you guys will be as well :)
