Hi there everyone!

It's been a while since the last update, so I'll dive into all of the happenings:

Mega Links

I've been receiving a few messages about the MEGA links and there might be some confusion on how I handle them so I'll explain it quickly:

The 2 main directory folders (regular and 4k) are always available in my posts. These get renewed monthly with a few days delay usually as I do it manually, but when I change the link I always rewrite the button on the latest post to match it, so if you are experiencing a broken link for the main folder make sure to check the link of the latest post.If that doesn't work then let me know and I'll look into it!

The daily posts links are handled differently. As I don't want to go over all the posts in the month to refresh their links, I set up an expiring link on them which automatically expires after a week starting from when they were posted. Under this week their folder will get moved to the main directory and once the link expires you'll only be able to view them from the main directory or through Patreon.

If you still have any questions about them you can always message me here on Patreon, X or Discord.

Discord

Talking about discord. It's been quite abandoned for a while and I'll be looking for ways to make it a little more active but I'm trying to do it in a way where I can avoid making it a chore to do daily content there as I already have my hands full with things I have to do daily.

Currently it's main use case if anything happens to my Patreon I have a way to reach you all and let you know of what happened.For anyone "new" to my page I've had a time where a lot of my posts were taken down by Patreon and I've tried to contact them to see what was going on but I never got a definite answer. So that's when I've set up the discord as I saw a few creator friends of mine have their pages taken down without any warnings.But fortunately I haven't had any issues with it lately, hopefully because of the few changes I've made to my posts, but I'm not really sure as I didn't get an answer telling me what were the issues in the first place.

But I still have it always open and you can reach me through there if its more convenient for you, and if you'd like to have a sample before commissioning you can always ask me there as it's currently either Discord or X where I'm able to send pictures privately.

Upgrading

I've mentioned after I got back from vacation that I'm working on upgrading my prompts to improve on the pose variety for my works. Since then I've been hard at work at doing that but I came to realize that doing what I originally had in mind is a lot more complicated than it was in my head at first...But even so I'm still adamant on doing this as once everything is set in place it would be a lot easier to expand upon it.

Without going too much into details, currently I'm reusing a lot of the poses which makes dailies get repetitive after a while, but I'll be expanding on the poses to be different based on personality, clothing, body type and background. This way the sets will feel less "off" some of the times and will match the characters better and will make it a hell of a lot easier for me to write additional poses without breaking things.

Alternate clothing sets

I've been doing the alternate clothing for the characters for a while now and I like that I can show off the characters in a different setting or way than the original ones as well as their default settings. But I feel like I'm in trouble finding a good alternate set for certain characters. I usually look if they have an alternate clothing set that's very different from the original one and use that. If there isn't then I try to give her a lingerie, bikini or a costume, but I think there could be a lot more options that I'm overlooking.

If you have any tips or ideas for alternate clothing sets then let me know either here in the comments, privately or when you give a character recommendation you can just add that to your recommendation for a character and I'll use that for the set if they pass the vote ^^

Recommendations and Polls

It's been the bread and butter of my patreon to run weekly polls and I've been collecting character recommendations for a while now as well so I wouldn't like to change that in any big ways, but I'm wondering how to make it so that I don't include the same characters in the polls from one week to another, and how to have some more variety in sets as well.

I've already written in the recommendation gathering polls that I won't include characters that were in the previous poll but I often forget to check back on them. So now I'm thinking of writing out these characters at the beginning of the post so that you know which ones will not be included regardless of recommendation as they were already polled for last week.

Though I'm not sure how I could make this happen but I'd also like to find a way to make some sets with some lesser known characters as well to spice up the variety, as currently there are some clear winners in regards to popularity and the other ones get pushed to the side.Hardest task is to find a way to create sets for the popular characters but give screen time to the lesser known ones as well, as just shoving one or the other to the side won't solve anything.

Styles

While I'm not planning to change my style, it's always fun messing around and trying out a few new ones just for entertainment purposes.

First one is my default style for reference.

Mostly the same as my style, but adjusted to have stronger shadows and a more "realistic" look.

Uses some elements from my default style but has a lot more cinematic, fantasy elements to it with some added models and different prompts.

Tried to keep it similar to my aesthetics but in an anime style.

An older style I came up with a while ago you might still be able to remember. I tried coming up with an anime style with strong outlines and shadows.

Another approach to the anime style in a more stylized way. Uses some elements from my default style.

A stronger emphasis on the chibi style but with some more simplified style in general, also has some elements from my default style however I don't think it's very recognizable.

A mix of 6. and 7. style without any of my models. Basically I was curious to see how it would look if I mixed 2 of the chibi styles without the impact of my models.

And that's all for this update post if you have any questions, tips, feedback or anything then let me know as they are always appreciated!

As always huge thanks for everyone's support and have a nice day!
