Status update: 3/18

Hi again. Sorry for the gap in posts, but there is nothing concrete to post yet, so I kept waiting in hopes I would get more time to work on finishing something for this project but that has not happened yet.

Effectively, I have been using most of my time to take care of various real life things that needed doing, and have made little progress on this content this past week in particular – but the pile of crap that has needed doing for years is much smaller now, which is very good. (As noted previously,  I have made a ton of progress in the past six weeks or so on stuff I have been putting off for years.)

I will be back with another update of some sort before the end of the month; not 100% sure what that will be just yet, but I am really hoping to have something more than just a status update before I start with the new side stuff next month. (It may be the little short story side thing I have been working on – but we will see how things go. I know people want images to go with it, but that takes even more time, etc…)

Other than that, I want to point out that the polls have no votes at all as of me posting this… midway through the month – which is depressing; so do please vote in those – they should be on the right and/or in the previous post. I do take these polls into account when planning new stuff, and it takes almost no time to vote, so I have no idea why votes are so low… but it definitely is not helping my motivation right now to see that happening.

As usual, if you want to help support/motivate me in making more content, you can check out my redone Patreon page here (as I said, more changes maybe coming soon): https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart

Any interest, comments, follows, likes, votes, or support really does help. It is hard to keep making new stuff when nobody seems to care. Following me on DA/slushe/pixiv/twitter/whatever doesn’t cost anything – and that all does help spread the word about my work… so please consider doing some of that if you haven’t already.

Status update: 2/27

Hi again. Sorry for the late update here, but I was hoping to have something more to post than just a status update – however, this is all I have for the moment. The weather has been crazy here this past week; we had gone from 80 degrees to snow in two days – which is horrific for my weather migraines. Not much to be done about that, but allegedly/hopefully the following week will be more stable – this current week it is supposed to rain all week… which isn’t great either. (Weird weather all around the country from what I have seen/read though.)

I have at least made a lot of progress with some real life cleaning, maintenance, etc. that I have needed to to do for… a couple years – so at least I got something done. (This does help everything else, believe it or not – as there are less distractions and less other crap to do.) We will have to see what next month may allow in terms of content, but I do not want to make any promises – I have the same 2-3 things planned at the moment that I have for two months now; but I need enough solid time to work on them. I also still haven’t come up with much else in terms of options/tiers for my redone Patreon page – though I am still trying to figure out something.

Anyway, I will be back in a few days with the poll results and some new polls – so do please vote in the polls on the right if you have not yet done so; they are taken into account and help let me know what you all want.

Happy Valentines Day, new side render(s) posted!

Hi all. I am back with one new render this time around, although there is (or will soon be, if you somehow read this right as I post it) a second new(ish) render available on my slushe page as well! (The other image is an old Patreon exclusive bonus valentine image that I had to take down due to my page forcibly being reclassified, so I may as well post it elsewhere.) Sorry I do not have anything else to post this time around, but I do at least have the one nice render for you today – and hopefully you all will enjoy it. That one new render is below, and there is a little story/setup to go with it, which you can read over on my DA/slushe pages! 🙂

As for other stuff, I hope to get something else to post soon – but I have no solid plans for any of it; the weather has been a total mess lately. (I have been working on a small written thing, but I do also want to finally finish LITC 6… so I have no clue when anything will get done or what it even will be.) I should be back in a week or so with a status update if nothing else – so check back for that, and do please vote in the polls on the right if you have not yet done so.

Status update: 1/30

Yo. As you can see, there is nothing quite ready to post as of yet, but I have been working on a new short story thing – which I may post soon, depending… really not sure yet. The weather here has been a mess – and this week alone it is bouncing between 20 degrees to 60, with rain every few days; which is pretty much the worst thing for my migraines… so not much has gotten done, nor will it in the near future in all likelihood. I just wanted to post an update here, to let everyone who bothers checking this page know I am still around, etc.

In terms of other upcoming stuff – I am planning to put whatever creative energy I can muster in the next couple weeks into making new side renders for Valentines day in two weeks… so hopefully I will have some new renders to post soon – but we will see how that goes. (Maybe with a little something else to go with it… but no promises.)

Also, I am still trying to figure out what else I can do with my new, strictly SFW patreon page… and I have not come up with much other than what it is yet – but I will continue thinking about it. More vote in the polls on the right would also be appreciated, if you have not voted yet.

Status update: 1/19

Hey. It’s been two weeks since my last post here, so I wanted to stop by and let you all know I am still around, etc. – though not much has gotten done since last time in terms of this project; I have had a bunch of real life stuff to do, and the weather has not been cooperating. (I am right in the middle of a big segment of rain or something every other day for like two weeks, along with temperature swings.)

We will see what happens in terms of content in the near future, but I really have no idea what may/may not get done this month (or next month) – there is a bunch of stuff I want to do, but little time/energy/motivation to do it. On that note, more votes in the polls on the right/previous post would be appreciated. Maybe I will just suddenly feel like making something, as used to happen much of the time – but I have just felt out of it in general for at least half a year now. No set schedules now though, which is quite nice – but I will likely still try and do side renders every other month at the minimum,,, though even that is not set in stone.

Patreon page successfully reclassified; not sure about new details yet though.

Hi guys, sorry for the gap in posts but I have been busy this past week with this. As the title suggests, I have successfully gotten my patreon page changed to SFW – which means I can keep it for the time being. However, I am still trying to figure out what I can do in terms of tiers/rewards with this new page… if anything. I can only post the “simpler” things on here from now on – along with text updates; but that is just the way it has to be since Patreon changed their policy again… hopefully this works out somehow.

Not much to announce yet in terms of new stuff or other progress this month; just getting this reclassification mess done was the most important thing since the cutoff was the end of this year. It also took more out of me than I thought, since I had to physically check over 400 posts… (and delete a third of them or more) due to not being specifically told what the issue with my page was when I first applied to have it reclassified.  (I first applied last friday – and had to message them back twice, waiting a full weekday each time.)

It probably would have been easier to just give them my personal information instead of removing half my posts and reclassifying my page – but I am someone who actually stands up for what they believe; and I believe that is completely pointless bullshit that endangers all their NSFW creators  – and puts them all at risk of full identity theft for no valid reason… (they allege it was a demand by mastercard to help prevent abuse/underage content – but anyone doing those things would obviously just lie and use someone else’s ID, which makes it entirely pointless) so fuck that shit. Not like I had much of anything to lose, honestly – but even if I did, I just don’t see myself going along with that crap. (Being someone with integrity who actually stands up for what they believe has some drawbacks.) I hope other Patreon creators in the same position are doing ok, and that nothing bad happens… but giving out your personal information and a photo ID can never end positively – and potentially end very badly.

I hope to be back with some new side renders for the holidays if nothing else… but we will have to see exactly what happens in the coming weeks; the weather here is really bad right now, (so I can’t do much at the moment) and I hate to promise/suggest things that might not happen.

December 2022 polls.

Hey. I have returned with the poll results from last time, and some new polls – not much else to report on just yet.

Last time there were two polls – though one was up for two months. Regardless, the first poll asked if you were looking forward to new story sets, and those who voted seemed to be in favor, so that is nice at least. The other one was the character popularity poll – which seemed to have fairly predictable results; Helenya, Salune, and Zayla were the top favorites, which I expected… though Zayla got less votes than I had predicted. Regardless, it is good to know, and I thank those of you who voted in those polls.

As for new polls – there are two, one asks how much cum you prefer in adult images/scenes, and the other asks how important the setup/concept of an adult scene/image is to your enjoyment of it. (Fairly sure I have done similar polls in the distant past, but it has been a while – and there really is only so much you can poll for after 7-8 years of multiple polls per month.) Those are below and on the right, so do please vote in those and let me know what you like.

I still haven’t gone over my redone Patreon yet, I need to do that later this week and submit it for reclassification, but I have been too tired, etc. these past couple days. (Every part of that is depressing, and I couldn’t bring myself to do it yet.)

No idea when I will be back with something else… so much is up in the air right now, it is effectively impossible to even know if anything will get done this month. I will definitely try for Xmas side renders, as that is also a thing I have tended to usually for for whatever reason… but besides that, I don’t know. Most things just seem to be going fairly badly these past few months; but I will do what I can; at the very least I can definitively say that the idea of giving up on all this is just disgusting to me – so that is unlikely to happen anytime soon.  However, I do really need to get properly motivated again somehow – as I have so much that I want to do and so little time/energy/motivation right now… and some of that I can’t do too much about.

Patreon page neutered, further changes likely.

Hi again. Sorry about the slight gap in posts, but I have had a lot to do, and the weather has not been cooperative, which as most all of you probably know by now, that tends to give me horrific headaches. I don’;t have any new visual content for you guys right now, as I have just been to busy/stressed to make anything this month. Some of you may also have noticed that I didn’t bother with my usual black friday gumroad sale this month… and that is mostly just due to me still being totally out of it all month (I honestly forgot until late evening on black friday, and decided it was effectively too late by that point); but it also doesn’t help when I think back and remember that nobody really bothered getting anything most of the time anyway. I may do a gumroad sale for Xmas in December, not sure yet… but there is a whole lot about all of this that I am not sure of at the moment.

Quick slightly positive note, there were at least some votes in the polls this month, so thanks for that – but more is always good, so do please vote in the polls on the right if you have not already done so. Not sure if I will leave one up again, or do totally new ones next month… we will see what happens in a few days.

I will see what I can do next month – I hope to have a couple new side renders for Xmas… but we will see what happens. I don’t want to make any promises, as I have been trying to find the time/energy to finish LITC 6 for months and months now… and the past few months in particular have just been intensely draining on me for various reasons, despite me not making mini-sets anymore; life has just not been cooperative, and I constantly worry about so many things… it is just a mess. Additional side note – deviantart seems to have either shit the bed entirely or possibly malfunctioned, since effectively my entire DA page (including my favorites from other artists) is currently blanket labeled “Mature Content” when not logged in  – when most of it actually is not…? Really unsure wtf is going on there – as there has always been a flag when you submit any image to DA that marks it as such, (which seemed fair enough) but now they seem to have put in some trash algorithm or some such that apparently auto-flagged damn near everything for some retarded reason. Not that I thought much of DA anymore after the eclipse fiasco years back, (much like DAZ, DA was a nice site that got bought by malicious company and turned to the dark side) but this is just a new and intensely sad low for them… I hope it actually is a mistake, or they likely just sank their own battleship.

In other, also sad news, I have had to gut my old Patreon page as previously mentioned, and try to make it SFW – in order to continue using Patreon since I refuse to risk full identity theft for no valid reason. I am not even positive on the status of it just yet… since I cannot post anything NSFW anymore, and therefore cannot give out any real rewards per se, it is just a tip jar at the moment. (I wanted to make it a pay whatever you want tier, but that apparently isn’t an option.) I even removed the old commission deal tiers, since nobody ever bothered with them anyway. (I may bring them back if things turn up, not sure.) I may make additional tip tiers with slightly higher denominations, just to allow for more support if desired… not entirely sure yet – I am still trying to figure out my plan/options.

There has been a ton of stuff to think over with this, and most all of it is intensely depressing. (Still not sure what will even happen to my other content right now…) I will likely edit that page further next month, with different cost tiers of tips or something, but we will see what happens – a lot of this also depends on the Patreon content mods, and if they require me to wipe more stuff to declare my page SFW or not… but hopefully what I have already done is enough. (And hopefully it works at all… I was told it would, but that doesn’t always work out.)

Status update: 11/16

Hey. I wanted to stop by and post a quick status update, and let you all know that I am still here… even though I don’t have much to show/say just yet. I still haven’t updated my Patreon page yet either – mostly because I have had migraines for almost a week straight at this point due to the weather shifts/rain from the tropical storm coming through last friday. (Not much to be done about the weather, unfortunately.) Plus, I have another hike scheduled for this friday, and something else to do on Saturday… so I have just been preparing for that when I can. Next week is clear in theory – so maybe I can get something else done besides clearing out my Patreon page… but we will see what happens; I don’t like promising things that I am not certain will happen and/or be of quality.

Thanks for the votes in the current polls though – that is really nice to see, especially since almost nobody bothered last month for whatever reason. More votes are always appreciated though – so do vote in the polls on the right of the page if you haven’t yet. (They should also be in the post below.) I do refer to the poll results, and they do matter – so let me know what you think. 🙂

Likely the last chance for this – and not that this will even matter very, very soon… but if there is any chance anyone out there would actually like to help support me and/or my work on all sorts of new content; and/or get access to one of my latest/best mini-sets, (this month gets a choice of any mini-set of choice for the middle $15 tier, and I currently plan to just have it remain like that for what little time my Patreon likely has left) like the remaining finished story sets, and larger versions of the completed animations I have made/posted, and/or the full games I have also made, (the micro VN and Salune’s Slave Training are still available via my Patreon page; not sure what else may come in the future at this point…) check out my Patreon page!: https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart

New November poll.

Hi again. I am back with one new poll for November – as I am leaving the character poll up for at least one more month. The old poll asked how people felt about Halloween, but nobody answered until like the day before or the day of… so I think that says more than the couple votes it got. The other poll from last time is staying for a bit longer, as I said above; but there is one new poll that asks if you are looking forward to future story sets… and you’ll never guess why that is up. (More motivation would be great… but after last month, I am not expecting much.) The current polls are also below for convenience.

As for my status, not much has changed since my last post… and I have another hike scheduled for Tuesday – hopefully this won’t drain me as much as the last one did. (It shouldn’t, allegedly.) No idea what may get done this month in terms of “content” – but I do really need to wipe through my Patreon page and do that at some point this month… (as allegedly next month is the deadline/cutoff – though I am not sure when) which will be as depressing as it is time consuming. I will try and post another status update in a week or so – but we will see what happens.

Not that this will even matter very soon, but if there is any chance anyone out there would actually like to help support me and/or my work on all sorts of new content; and/or get access to one of my latest/best mini-sets, (this month gets a choice of any mini-set of choice for the middle $15 tier, and I currently plan to just have it remain like that for what little time my Patreon likely has left) like the remaining finished story sets, and larger versions of the completed animations I have made/posted, and/or the full games I have also made, (the micro VN and Salune’s Slave Training are still available via my Patreon page; not sure what else may come in the future at this point…) check out my Patreon page!: https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart
