Tag Archives: Status Update

August is here, and so are some new polls.

Hey. This is a bit later than I had hoped, but I am back with the new polls and prior poll results – for what those even were. There were two polls last time – one asked if you were looking forward to more story sets… and there was only one vote; but at least it was a positive one… so I guess that is something. The other poll asked what sites/pages of mine you check regularly – and there were only two voters… but slushe seems to have won out in that with two votes, compared to one for the main site here and one for DA. (Slushe is basically my new side posting site now – since DA has just completely shit itself with the “new” layout.) I have no idea why nobody wanted to vote in those… it really would have been helpful; I am rather unmotivated regarding what I wanted to do now – but we will see what happens.

As for the new polls – there are two again; both are revisits of old polls… to see how things have changed. The first asks how much text/dialogue you prefer in your adult scenes, and the second poll asks which of the given options you think are the most important parts of an adult scene… and you can pick your top three (3). Please let me know your thoughts on those, and I will see what ends up happening in the coming days; I do not know what the weather has in store for the near future – the hurricane is currently affecting my area still, and I don’t know how long that will go on.

Prior renders finished – starting on new mini-set tomorrow.

Hi everyone. Sorry about the gap in posts here – but the weather has just been a mess; I haven’t been able to get nearly as much done as I wanted to this month… but there is just nothing I can do about the weather. Anyway – I finished the renders on mini-set 70 (the solo Karen one with some toys), and sent out main rewards to my patrons a short while ago; and as the title of this post says, I will start work on the next mini-set preview tomorrow – and that should get done/posted before the end of the month.

I also did go and post the second public preview for mini-set 69, the one with Helenya and the elf guy; that is in the original post for that below, as well as over on the master catalog page… so check that out if you haven’t yet. More votes in the polls on the right would also be appreciated… especially given that I am using these to gauge interest – it is kind of important. Regardless, I will be back soon – I hope everyone is staying safe and sane during this whole mess.

New side renders posted!

Hey again. The weather here has been really crappy – and it apparently is going to continue and/or get worse next week; so things aren’t looking too great… but I did finally get the new side renders done and posted. One render in particular took me a day longer than it should have – but I kept having memory issues and other, truly bizarre problems that I have never encountered before. Long story short though – those new side renders are mostly posted on my Slushe/DA pages; but one is somewhere else this time… somewhere close by – that those who check this page will likely guess very quickly, for one of many reasons. (It shouldn’t be hard to find.) I hope you all enjoy those. 😀

I did not finish the new character bits just yet – I was too busy/tired to get it done tonight; I will try and fit that in over the next couple days if I can. Please vote in the polls on the right, and I will be back sometime next week with another update – hopefully I can get the mini-set renders done soon… somehow.

To end this, I want to once again mention my special offer over on my Patreon page, for anyone who may be interested – the details of that are below. There are only two weeks of this remaining, so get in on it while you can! 🙂

Status update: 7/10

Hi again. I am still working on the new side renders – I want to get a few done and post them all together if possible… and we will have to see how this weekend works out. The weather here has been a total fucking mess all week – it has been super humid and thunder-storming every other day; which is basically the worst thing possible for my migraines – so most days I haven’t been able to do very much with all this. We even lost power for a few hours – for the first time in years. I will do the best I can to get all this done as soon as possible – but it will likely be at least a little bit late… just knowing how things have been going recently. (I try to take more time make it nicer rather than rush it to get it done ‘on time’.) Still really hoping to find time to squeeze in something else this month too… but who knows if that will finally happen.

In the mean time, please vote in the polls on the right if you haven’t yet – and check out my assorted other pages, linked on the right as well; (there are assorted side renders on my slushe/DA pages that are not posted here) and any follows/comments/retweets, etc would be greatly appreciated. For anyone new to this site, there is a bunch of free content up top under the “Freely Released Image Sets!” tab. I did also make mini-set 66 available over on my gumroad page, for anyone interested in that. (Gumroad is where all my old mini-sets are are not free or still available on my Patreon page.) I hope you all stay safe, and I will post another status update soon when I get the side renders done/posted.

Happy early fourth of July – and also polls.

Hey. I am really out of it at the moment, but I wanted to come by and make this post – and put up the new polls. As I mentioned before, I will get the new side images done as soon as I can… but I didn’t get much sleep last night – so I couldn’t get much done today, I will see what happens over the weekend… but I am just drained at the moment, so it may be a bit longer still. Semi-important side note: in theory, my site has free SSL coverage again… and I think I have that working right – but there may be minor issues here and there, since I am not overly familiar with it. Please let me know if you find any problems, so I can fix them.

Anyways – for those of you that even celebrate it, Happy early fourth of July! (Please stay safe and don’t do anything stupid and/or dangerous – you are putting everyone at risk, not just yourself in times like this.)

As for the polls, last time I asked two things – first I asked if people checked patreon posts for pages that they did not subscribe to, and one person said yes, and one said maybe… but those were the only two votes. So, I am inclined to think that this is an idea that is at least worth testing… which will likely happen in the near future. 🙂 The second poll asked which of my ‘lesser’ main characters you liked best, and Delfina got three votes, while Nylavi got one – so clearly some people quite like Delfina, which is nice to see. 😀 (I will take this all under advisement for future content – Belle is more of an Xmas thing primarily anyway.) Sometime soon I also hope to get Delfina and Nylavi little bio sections on my “Characters” page up top… maybe sometime this month I will have the time/energy to do that; but there are already several other things that I want to try and fit in before that, so who knows.

In regard to the new polls – there are two again, and the first asks if you are looking forward to more story sets from me… for no particular reason. (Few people seem to actually read this anyway… but the very fact that this poll exists should tell the people who pay attention to my pages/posts something.) The second poll asks which of my pages you check most frequently – and you can pick the top three options from the ones listed. All of the best options are in the poll – so please let me know what your favorites are; there are two other crappy ones are not mentioned, for reasons that should be obvious. Any votes in those would be appreciated… and would almost certainly serve as incentive for me to do more of certain things on certain sites.

Also, a quick shout out about my special offer over on my Patreon page, for anyone who may be interested – the details of that are below!

Last mini-set renders done – starting on the new preview soon.

Hi again! Sorry for the long gap in posts here – but my assorted surgeries two weeks back took more out of me than I thought… so now I am running very late once again. There wasn’t really much to say, and I was really out of it and tired for most of this month – so I couldn’t get much done. Only this week have I been back to normal, and I have just now finished all the renders for mini-set 69, and sent that out to appropriate patrons of mine; it ended up being 49 images, by the way. (Patrons also have an additional, early preview for that mini-set – as per usual.) I really like how that one came out – and had some good fun making it, so hopefully everyone else will like it too. 😀 An additional preview for mini-set 68 (Lucia/Nylavi) has also been posted in the master catalog here, as well as in the original post for that mini-set, below.

I will start work on the next mini-set tomorrow, and try to get that preview ready in time for the end of the month. I am really going to try and get back on schedule next month; I think I would have done so this month, had I not needed those minor procedures done. There is one other thing I have wanted to work on, but so far been unable to… so I really hope I can finally find time for that next month, but we will see if something else comes up. As far as the new side renders go – those will have to be postponed a bit, until early next month; I am too far behind schedule at the moment to do those right now… and I need to figure out what I want to do for most of them anyway. I also have not decided if I will post them on DA – as I am still just totally disgusted by their lack of regard for their artists/members.

Anyway – I will be back in a couple days with a new mini-set preview, and the polls on the right could really use more votes… as the results of both of those will definitely be taken into consideration. One of those in particular might play into what I decide to do with one of the new side renders that I am making soon… and the other may lead to more special public stuff being posted on my Patreon page!

Also, a quick reminder that I have that special offer running on my Patreon page until the end of July, the details of which are posted below!

Status update: 6/12

Hi. I am back with a small status update – though there is not much new to report on just yet. I am still working on the current mini-set renders, and that will likely be another week still, based on the previous two months. (I really am trying to get them done sooner – it just keeps turning out this way somehow.) We will have to see what else I have time for once that gets situated… I just have not had enough time to work on much else these past few months, with all the complicating factors. I have a bunch of things related to this project that I would like to do… but I just need to get the time for it.

As for other stuff – I do plan to get some side renders done this month… but I don’t know if I will post them on DA anymore; the “new” eclipse layout is just so fucking terrible. I presume their total site traffic has halved at least due to that mess; since very few people seem to have been checking my DA page since that update… and that is compared to what I normally got there before. (I also know several artists that have effectively quit the site over it.) That forced update also really shows a clear lack of regard for their users, and especially the artists; since most of the worst parts of eclipse relate to managing content. I did also list all currently retired mini-sets on my gumroad page, so that is available up top for anyone interested. More votes in the polls on the right here would be nice as well – as I may even use one of those characters in a side render… we will see what happens a bit later on. Anyway – I will be back soon with another update of some sort… but in the mean time, check out the special offer on my Patreon page if you haven’t already!

*This special offer runs from June 3, until the end of July, 2020.*

Prior mini-set renders done at last; new preview posted/coming shortly.

Hey. I know I am running really late this time – but I did finally finish the mini-set renders from the Lucia/Foxgirl mini-set. (I named her Nylavi by the way – and I plan for her to appear in later content in some form… much like Delfina; I will see about adding entries for them over on the “Characters” page sometime soon.) Side note, I had a strange amount of issues with this mini-set… several things that have either never happened before or happened very rarely started over the last few days – making this take a bit longer than I would have liked. I had… scratches(?) on one render – like… actual noticeable holes in the middle of the scene for no reason that I could discern… as best I can figure, there is some truly bizarre mesh problem with the hair that I am using for Nylavi – but I will check that and possibly fix it at a later date. (I have literally never even heard of this happening before… really strange – caught me totally off guard.)

Long story short, the mini-set ended up at 40 images total – and that just got sent out to appropriate patrons of mine a short while ago. I didn’t quite get all that i wanted to in with this mini-set… due to constant migraines, time constraints, and technical problems. However, that tends to happen at times, and especially when I am running so late to begin with… I do like how it came out though – despite all the constant/strange issues near the end. Also, I have been putting way, way too much in these “””mini””” sets for a while now… (these were originally supposed to be like 4-10 renders each…) but that is just how things tend to work out. 🙂 I already have a rough plan for the next mini-set preview… and I just hope that I can finish that in time; as I don’t have long to get that sorted. (Should be ok, I think – I already know what I want to do, which is usually the hard part.)

I also did post the second public preview for the bunnygirl/farmer mini-set from last time; that is over/down in the original post for that, and also on the master catalog. So check that out if you are interested… which you should be – it’s pretty nice. 🙂

Anyway – check back in a couple days for the new mini-set preview, and do check out my Patreon page if you like my work and want to consider supporting me and perhaps getting access to the current batch of mini-sets! https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart

Some new previews of old things.

Hi again. I hope everyone is still safe/sane during this coronavirus mess. I am still working on the mini-set renders – and I need to redo one little bit in the patreon bonus render with Zayla in it; so it will still be a little longer on those. (I’ve had weather-related migraines for over a week straight now; so my progress has been limited.)

However, I came by to post a few old bonus mini-set previews that used to be exclusive to my Patreon page – from like a year ago, back when I first considered/tested posting two previews of each mini-set. These three previews somehow never got posted on here, or anywhere else that I am aware of – so I came by to post them on the master catalog, and also in the full version of this post linked below after the read more tag. (And also on slushe, etc.) They were exclusive on my Patreon for over a year – and I am sure they will do more good as public previews, now that the mini-sets in question are all long since retired. All modern second previews are posted publicly after a month or so… so it is high time these got posted too.

If you like any of these, consider buying the full mini-sets over on my gumroad, here: gumroad.com/redleatherart (more information on the mini-sets is over on the master catalog, here: https://redleatherart.com/wp/?page_id=2758)

Status update: 5/11

Hey. I am still working on the newest mini-set, and the weird weather over the past few days left me mostly unable to work on this from all the migraines. I am hoping to have it done a week from now… but we will just have to see what happens – I will do the best I can; but circumstances right now are a bit of a mess. So far, so good though… for whatever that means; people on DA seem to really like the new foxgirl character – and I do plan to have her be a recurring side character at the minimum, like Delfina from the mini-set two months back.

Anyway though – the Patreon May special poll is over, and it is likely no surprise that Zayla won again… and I am looking forward to making that once I get a good idea for it, and have to render time to spare. That will get posted to all my Patrons, and stay on my Patreon page exclusively… so if you want to see that, and all the other exclusive stuff I have under the “special” category over there, check out my Patreon page here: https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart
