【Drawpoll #1】 Patreon Bonus Art Reward - Plumber Boss (Patreon)

"I heard your pipe's leaking. Want me to fix it?🔧"
「聽說你的水管漏水啊。要我幫你修修嗎🔧」

---------------------------------------------------------------

So here's the first Patreon bonus art! Do you like it?
To be honest, when I announced the removal of monthly pinups, deep down I knew it'd upset some of my patrons. After all, rewards are less attractive without exclusive artpacks. I completely understand the decision to cancel the subscription.

However, since my income is mainly relied on Patreon, I was rather panic inside. I wanted to continue Gym Pals, but the amount of pinup alts are holding the updates back. I wasn't sure if I made the right decision. I'm just only one person, and I don't have a group to divide the workload. I needed to make the sacrifice...

During this month I've received a lot of heartwarming feedbacks, Some of them are via dm, some are on my art stream, telling me how excited they are to see the next update of Gym Pals, and how my comic has changed their lives. It was until then that I realized , I did leave a spark in their hearts. As an artist, what could be more honored than that?

I want to seize this opportunity and let you know how grateful I am to have you still on board as my patrons. I know some of you have subscribed almost 4 years!
Whoa😭I'll do my best to update comics continuously to repay your enthusiasm!

P.S. I'll hold the second poll around the middle of the month. Don't miss it!

這是第一張贊助者額外插圖！不曉得各位還喜歡嗎？
其實當我宣布要移除CG圖包後，我心裡有數會有一部份的贊助者會想取消贊助，畢竟沒了獨家獎勵，吸引力會下降很多，我完全可以理解。

但當我的主收入完全依賴Patreon時，我心裡是很慌張的。我想繼續畫健身小哥，但圖包的大量差分讓我無力更新。我不曉得自己是否做了正確的決定。但我畢竟只是一個人，沒有龐大的團隊支援我作畫，想要穩定連載的話，我必須做出選擇…

在這段期間我收到了許多很溫暖的留言，有人是透過私訊，有人是在繪畫直播上，告訴我他們有多期待可以看到下一篇健身小哥，以及我的漫畫如何改變了他們的人生，並且支持這些改變。我才發現，自己的創作至少在一些人的心中留下了火花，做為一個藝術家，有比這更榮幸的事嗎？

我想要趁這個機會，謝謝所有依然還在船上與我航行的贊助者們，我知道有些人都快贊助4年了！
我的天😭我會努力穩定更新，好報答你們的熱情支持的！

P.S. 月中時我會舉辦第2次插圖投票，不要錯過囉！
