Tifa Free-Use -- Surprise Piece + January's Plans! (Patreon)

HAPPY NEW YEAR ME MATEYS!!! 🎉🎉🎉

What an incredible time to be alive!!! And an incredible time indeed to be part of this adventure!!

I can't tell you how happy this cappy of yours is to be back at the high decks of this glorious ship of ours!! 🥰🥰🥰

And as such, I wanted to start the year with a bit of a banger! Tifa, one of my all-time top choices when it comes to all-universes waifus, and I hope she is as well for you!! 🙈🙈🙈

Of course, if you would like to see more of her, please do let me know! As I have a few ideas patiently awaiting for the crew's choice in my inkpot, ready to come to life for her!

🔼 2021 Tifa... Now THAT's a glow-up 😆🤣😂

(Poll Results) Well well well... 🧐

...I could have sworn Marvel Rivals was going to win this one! But it seems the crew is determined to get more Critical Role done!!

 I can't blame you, me hearties! The amount of stories to be told are just too many! And as such, we shall continue our CR quest to the future and beyond!

My proposal? Let's dose it a bit for those sailors looking for a fresher IP and stories; yet always making sure we have a good supply of our favorite CritterPopcorn Time! I have a few sketches already waiting to be painted 🙈🙈🙈

Our first 2025's animation! 🎥

As it is to be expected by our gorgeous crew, this Cap'n will work tirelessly on our animations, yet I would like to let you know about the plans I have and the reasons behind them:

The aim will stay the same: One animation a month. HOWEVER! there is a caveat:     From now on yer Cap'n will prioritize keeping good levels of sanity, and what this means is that some months where things are too rushed (e.g. Private life complications, voice actresses/actors/rigger don't manage to deliver on time and/or quality) we will be pushing the animation to the following month. I will do my best to be very clear about this so you know the status of all animations at all times. You deserve clarity, and I shall do my best to keep it there for you!.

I would like to try new approaches toward animations, and this is something IMO very positive! To keep the production on going, the motivation and creativity at all times high and your interest at its peak!!

I personally think it is a good balance: keeping things fresh at the expense of (possible) delays as this is what I feel was the reason behind the lack of quality on the last animations (that, and the 10 riggers we tried to work with 🥲). But please do tell me what you think, my sailors! As your opinion is what I care the most ❤️❤️❤️

I am SO Thankful For Your Patience 🙏

As many of you know, 2024 was a terrible year for yer cap'n, and the last couple of months I took for working on Soulgasm, so we could have a working early access of the game that feels whole (Even though many things shall be modified and improved!).

All this to say that I feel deeply thankful for the great patience all of you, my handsome sailors, have had with me. From not being able to answer to messages, to keeping such a low amount of content delivered to CptPopcorn. I feel truly thankful for your kindness of sticking around, and believing in yer Cap'n ❤️❤️❤️

You are the friggin' best!!! And this only inspires me to do all that I can, to make 2025 our year; full of smut, full of stories, and full of your choices 🎉🎊🍻

FOR A GLORIOUS 2025!!!

YAAARGG!!!
