Ok first, I found out that fair number of people actually DO keep track of this blog lol! Total surprise to me. Also, I've been visiting a lot of pirate sites, and man I get a lot of glowing compliments there. Ehm, I miss out on all that, please let me know what you think here or at Deviant Art. I know my shit gets pirated to no end, and I'd rather you buy it obviously cuz I could use the cash, but I'm just happy people like it. Let me know what you think of my shit!Anywhoo, about websites and Deviant Art, so since the lockdowns started, I've been posting a pic-a-day about a photoshoot to promote the Disco Dragon 4 to keep ya'll asses entertained... but that has now escalated into an almost 100 picture series with pretty high res pin-ups of all the girls... and I've decided just to go straight into sex comics. I think I might be able to squeeze 3 mini comics out of it.
In the meanwhile I've been busy with Sen's comic as well as Lali Sutra. But they're going slow due to the photoshoot. Go check it out, it's a lot of fun!Pic over here is me testing out some 'smart materials' on Sen where I can fade in dirt and sweat as the comic progresses.
Pic below of Lali and Xtina are the first renders from Lali Sutra.
About Deviant Art... things have changed there and it's giving me the chills. DA never made a big deal about the site design and let the art stand central. Now the site has turned into a rather confusing flat-design web-designer's wet-dream project with all the gadgets and bells and whistles and it's become a little impractical almost. The new design 'Eclipse' is not terrible but such a drastic and unnecessary departure from Deviant Art's original feel, and I'm a little worried that they're now focusing trying to become an Art Station and maybe wanting to shed off their amateurish, fetishist, porny, my little pony fanart reputation... which IMO was what made them actually cool and fun and... dare I say it... deviant? I have the feeling they're going down the corporate Tumblr route. So yeah I'm feeling the pressure to make sure I have a back-up site...
In the meanwhile, good to know you're actually keeping track of me here!
PS: I am Dutch ;) born and raised in Malawi, studied in South Africa and now live in the UK. And I can speak Kombuis Dutch too yes. You can also buy the Disco Dragons at Gumroad or Affect3D ;D

DeleteEveryone keeping track of you knows your work and the passion you infuse in it. The hard work. Your skill at making us feel part of the story and the ambient you grace the pages with is something I haven't seen in a long time. In a world ready to tear itself apart is a privilege to help underground gems like these to stay free of the mindless corruption of the big corporations. I'm supporting you, ready to pack and leave wherever you decide to go.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Akymma, that means a lot to me!! Onward we go to more fun stories! :D
DeleteHello, I'm not sure if you already addressed this, but have you considered setting up a patronage page? Such as a SubscribeStar page or a... ehm... Patreon page.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, your comics are by far the sexiest ones on the internet right now, you're basically a sex comic god at this point. And if you'd allow me a request, oh mighty one, please more creampies in your future projects. :P
hehe thanks so much man! I hope I didn't come across as fishing for compliments, I just seem to be missing out on some seriously positive feedback on my comics on various pirate sites. But as far as compliments go, man, yours is pretty intense lol! Thanks so much!
DeleteRegarding subscription services, it's always on my mind. The problem is just that while I'm making comics, I have long spells of public inactivity and I'm scared that the pressure of keeping the subscription service active will just slow me down. That said, currently I am working on a public series, but that would also make little sense on a subscription site since it's free, and I prefer to bring comics out as an entire story, rather than in pieces... unless the story is really long, like the Disco Dragon.
But I'm still considering it! In any case I'm going to try and bring everythign together in my new site so that people don't have to go all over the place for my stuff.
BTW, creampies? Consider it done! :D
DeleteA lot of artists who have successful subscription services put out free stuff all the time.
DeleteLook at InCase, as an example: https://www.patreon.com/InCaseArt
He's got almost 3k subscribers on his Patreon page, and all of his comics are free. And based on the quality of your work, I'm sure a lot of people would consider giving you support just for the free stuff you usually post on deviant-art. (Myself included.)
Either way, I wish you the best in whatever you do. You rock, man. :D
(And I'm humbled that you heard my request. I can't wait! XD)
I will definitely consider Patreon/Subscribestar! thank you for the link, it does help me get an idea of what I could do.
DeleteA very much thank you for me too. You are producing the best and most original erotic comics in the world and I will support you for ever! Especially Disco Dragon is just awesome. PLEASE keep up the good work and give your funs more stories in the future. Yours
