Some Words About the New Work (Patreon)

Hello everyone, there have been quite a few criticisms regarding the new release. First of all, I would like to apologize to those who are dissatisfied with the quality of the new work. I myself am not entirely satisfied with the quality of Little Sister 10 because it didn't turn out exactly as I had planned. Originally, I had planned to include some plotlines for Nancy and also some of Claire's memories in this installment. However, this month I had a lot of unexpected situations on my end. In the first half of the month, I contracted COVID-19, and in the second half, I had to pack and prepare to move to a new place while still not fully recovered. As a result, the time available for rendering the comic decreased significantly, and I didn't have enough time to create multiple scenes. Instead, I had to increase the number of rendered pages and different angles in the earlier scenes. I had to make it work and reach the current page count by adding extra content. In fact, Shadow Game 2 from last month also had this issue. These past two months, I have had very little time to devote to creating comics. This has resulted in a decline in the quality of the work.

Additionally, regarding the plot, I had a general plan for the overall development and direction of the story. However, I still wanted to expand on the storyline within it. This is why, in this installment, I didn't reveal certain events concerning Nancy and Claire, which made the plot appear excessively drawn out. This is a planning issue on my part, and I will pay more attention to it in future productions. When starting a new project, I usually plan the details of the storyline from scratch based on the general direction. However, as I have progressed with the Little Sister series, there may have been some issues with my own ideas. I may have intentionally changed the course of the plot for the sake of twists and turns, which has resulted in this work becoming lengthy and deviating from its original main line. Although I personally have a strong liking for Katherine and would like to explore more storylines related to her, I understand that many of you are more interested in Nancy's story. Honestly, I myself prefer the "If" storyline in Nancy's narrative, where her possessiveness grows stronger and she develops in a more unrestrained manner.

Another issue this time is the excessive amount of explicit scenes. This is the same problem I mentioned earlier, where the limited time resulted in fewer scenes. I had to use explicit scenes to fill up the page count. If I had followed my previous approach, this comic could have been around 200 pages, which would have been sufficient. I rendered multiple angles in each scene to increase the page count, but it resulted in fewer plot developments and more explicit content. After I move next month, if I have enough time, I will try to avoid such occurrences because I myself do not like it this way.

Additionally, I feel that I have reached a bottleneck in my work. It has been a long time that the rendering quality and the character model quality haven't been improved. Due to time constraints, I haven't been able to explore more with character costumes. I have already exhausted most of the different possibilities for skinsuit usage variations. In terms of the plot, I try to introduce twists, but it seems that the readers have already figured out the general direction because you all know that no matter how the plot goes, skinsuits and disguise will appear in it, then it's easier to guess the plot, and they can anticipate the plot developments. I don't like the idea of using skinsuit solely for the sake of shock value; I prefer the approach Judy takes, where the skinsuit is used to create a sense of sensuality. So, I've been contemplating whether I need to take a step back and reflect.

I feel that I may have fallen into a trap where "I need to release a 350-page work every month to maintain my productivity". However, forcing myself to meet this deadline leaves me with insufficient time to think and plan for a work that I genuinely love and feel satisfied with. Consequently, the quality of the work suffers. Perhaps, in times when I lack sufficient inspiration, I should create shorter pieces and allocate time to explore more possibilities in terms of visuals and effects. For example, I've mentioned Blender before or the current trend of AI-generated artwork. Currently, my creative time is filled with meeting the monthly quota, along with the extra rewards and the pressure to deliver over 300 pages of content. This leaves me with little time for contemplation and growth. I believe this may be a trap that I have fallen into.

In summary, I am not entirely satisfied with the recent quality of my work. Over the past few months, I have found myself enjoying the shorter bonus comic releases more. I'm not very content with the longer installments, including Shadow Game 2 and Little Sister 8 and 10. I still prefer Shadow Game 1. I believe I should try to let go of the burden of releasing 300 pages every month and focus on creating works that satisfy both myself and resonate more with you the readers.

Finally I want to express my gratitude for everyone's support and appreciation. I also hope that in the future, I can create works that will impress everyone, just like Judy and Little Sister 1 did back in the day. I encourage everyone to provide more criticism and feedback. Your input is valuable to me!

大家好，关于新作的批评声音还挺多的，首先向不满意新作质量的朋友们道歉，这部Little Sister 10的质量我自己也不是很满意，因为首先做出来的就不完全是我规划的部分，本来这部我还计划了一些Nancy的剧情，以及一部分Claire的回忆，都应该在这部讲出来，但是这个月我自己这边的突发情况太多了，上半个月感染了新冠肺炎，下半个月在没有完全恢复的情况下还要收拾东西准备搬去新的住处，所以能用来渲染漫画的时间一下子减少了很多，导致我没有足够时间去做多个场景了，只能在做前面的场景的时候增加了不少渲染页数和不同的角度，可以说是强行凑数达到了现在的这个页数，其实上个月的Shadow Game 2也有这个问题，这两个月我能用来做漫画的时间确实太少了。

另外，关于剧情方面，因为我对于后面的发展只是有一个大致的规划，方向已经有了，但是我还是想从里面多拓展一些剧情出来，这在我这次没有把Nancy和Claire的一些事情讲出来的同时就会让剧情显得特别拖沓，这是我规划的问题，后面继续制作的时候我还要多加注意。因为我在做一部新的的时候都是在大的方向上从0开始规划细节上的剧情，而Little Sister这个系列我做到现在，可能我自己的想法也出现了一些问题，把本应该自然发展的剧情改的有些刻意为了反转而反转了，这就导致这部作品现在又长又偏离了本来应该的主线，虽然我自己其实很喜欢Katherine，而且很想多做一些跟她相关的剧情，不过我想你们很多人都更想看Nancy那边的故事，说实话我自己其实对于Nancy那边的故事，我更喜欢那条If线，让Nancy的占有欲更强，更肆无忌惮的那种发展。

这次的另一个问题就是肉戏的占比有些超标，这个就是跟之前我提到的一样的问题，因为时间少导致的场景少，只能用肉戏填补页数，如果按照我之前的方式其实这次的漫画200多页可能就够了，我在每个场景下都渲染了比较多个角度，才让页数多起来，这就导致了剧情的变少和肉戏的增多，下个月我搬家之后如果时间足够，会尽量避免这种事情的发生，因为我自己也不喜欢这个样子。

另外我自己现在可能也陷入了一些瓶颈，因为我的渲染画质和模型的质量已经很久没有提升了，角色服装上面因为时间的问题也没有做更多的尝试，皮物的不同玩法，至少我自己比较喜欢的已经都做的七七八八的了，在剧情上，想要设置反转但感觉大家已经摸清了套路，都能猜到大致的剧情发展，我又不喜欢那种单纯的为了作恶而使用皮物的剧情，更喜欢Judy那种，通过皮物产生情趣的玩法，所以我在想我是不是需要沉淀一下。因为我感觉现在可能掉进了一个误区，就是一定要每个月更新一个350页左右的作品来维持我的更新效率，但强行保证这个效率的结果就是我没有足够的时间去思考和编排一个我自己真正喜欢且足够满意的作品，最后导致做出来的质量不尽如人意。或许之后在我没有足够灵感的情况下我应该做的短一点，同时拿出一些时间去探索一下更多画面上或者效果上的可能性，比如我之前说了很久的Blender啊，或者现在很火的AI绘画，现在我在创作上的时间有点被每个月的额外奖励和300多页的长篇更新填满了，导致没有足够的时间去思考和进步了，我觉得这可能是我陷入的一个误区。

总而言之，我自己也不太满意最近的作品质量，这几个月我自己更喜欢的反而是额外奖励的短篇漫画，这几个月的长篇我都不是很满意，包括Shadow Game 2，以及Little Sister 8，10，我自己还是比较喜欢Shadow Game 1的，我想我应该试着放下每个月必须更新300页这个包袱，好好去想一想怎么做出我自己满意，也让大家更喜欢的作品。

最后要感谢大家的支持和喜欢，我也希望之后能再做出像当年Judy和Little Sister第一部那样让大家眼前一亮的作品，希望大家多多批评和给出意见！
