Q: Do you have a huge archive with all your animations and wallpapers in one place?
Yes, for my animations at least I've managed to sort out something resembling an archive, featuring all my animations from 2021 to the present. The password is changed on the 1:st of every month, though sometimes extraneous circumstances may make the update lag behind a day or two, so if I appear to have missed to update it don't hesitate to send me a direct message or the likes. Either way, the link and password will always be above here.

Q: What is your schedule like?

Monday: Animation release day, editing day, Wallpaper day
Tuesday: Comic work day
Wednesday: Animation day
Thursday: Project work day
Friday: Day of rest
Saturday: Animation day
Sunday: Animation day

This schedule results in approximately 2-3 animations per month, one being the longer "Scenario" one that takes two weekends to resolve, with accompanying wallpapers for the appropriate tiers, and 2 extra wallpapers. Projects and Comics are more long-form work that takes a long time to make, but will occasionally land when I manage to get them sorted.


Q: What do all these content formats mean?
A "Loop" is generally a looping animation, running somewhere between 6-12 seconds.
A "Scenario" is more ambitious than a loop, running upwards of 1 minute.
A "Project" is my most ambitious work, featuring voice acting, and can run even longer.
A "Wallpaper" is a still image render where I either try out the capabilities of my hardware, test different render engines, or otherwise experiment with lighting or other conditions. They vary from large scenes involving several characters to simple pinups featuring one.


Q: What do your backer tiers actually get?
$2 tier is the core tier, and gets access to all my baseline Patreon exclusive content updates. Whether that's download links, compilations of my loop work, the extra angles for loops, polls whenever those land, wallpapers, or otherwise.
$5 tier is the Discord tier. Features all the stuff that the $2 tier gets, but also access to my work in progress channels, looks into model work, and the ability to nominate characters for and vote in the monthly "Less Popular Ladies" poll, which determines who to feature for one animation Loop a month.
$10 tier is the VIP tier. Features all the stuff that the $2 and the $5 tier gets in addition to being able to vote and nominate characters for the monthly Scenario through Patreon polling, and are able to suggest characters for inclusion in those polls. The "Aftermath" wallpaper is also exclusive to this tier, which are wallpapers that follow on the animation resulting from the votes held by the tier.

I note that the Discord roles are "contingent" on backer tiers. This is literal, with the Patreon Discord bot handling invites and role allocation, meaning that if you at any point stop being a backer or downgrade your tier outside those with Discord access, you will also lose your role, and therefore the access to the Discord channels in question. The same goes for Patreon chat mirror channels.


Q: What models do you work with?

Q: I am unable to open your MEGA files. What do I need?
My files come in .rar archives, both for ease of sorting and to be more resistant to spurious mass reports. You will need some kind of program or app that is able to extract .rar archive files. This varies from device to device, but everything from phones to desktop computers should have something available that can do the trick.


Q: Do you do commissions?
No. As of writing this FAQ, I sadly have no means of fitting commission work into my schedule. Whether this will change in the future remains uncertain.


Q: I can't play some of your older work, or they stutter strangely or do not have sound. What is wrong?
I used to rely on a really old Sony Vegas for my editing, meaning the encoding is incredibly strange on some of my older work. It is my understanding that newer versions of VLC Media Player is capable of playing my old content without much issue, though I have heard of some manually fixing around with their codecs getting it to work on other players as well. I would personally recommend using VLC.


Q: What programs do you use in your work?
I started off in Source Filmmaker but have since transitioned over entirely to Blender. I use Sony Vegas for editing.


Q: Can you show me how you do X?
One day I might have the time to cobble together a tutorial of sorts, but sadly that opportunity is yet to present itself. I am rather stressed in my everyday life and simply have no time to mentor anyone, nor do I know if I am truly qualified to - being entirely self-taught with no prior education in the 3D scene, I can presently only really direct you towards the same tutorials that I started off from, which are the official Valve SFM tutorial for keyframe animation and the famous Donut Tutorial by Blender Guru, both available over on Youtube.


Q: Would you be willing to share your session files?
No, I'm sorry. I have had incredibly poor experiences with this in the past and have since resolved to never do it again. It is nothing personal, but a policy to save myself future pain. I also more often than not utilize paid for models or otherwise paywalled content made by other 3D creators, and it is not my right to distribute their material.


Q: Where do you get your sound effects and/or models?
Some models/sounds are outright purchased, some models are through backing model makers on their Patreons, and some are publicly available. Both the free sound packs and the free models I use can be found on pages like Smutbase, SFMlab and Open3dlab - all you need is an account. If you have any questions pertaining to a specific model and who the creator of it is, feel free to poke me about it so I can direct you properly to them.


Q: I am not getting a Discord invite, or my role is incorrect.
Make sure to connect your Discord account to your Patreon account:
https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/212052266-Getting-Discord-access

In the event this does not work, unlinking and relinking your account, or unsubbing and then resubbing to my Patreon has ostensibly worked in the past for other backers. The Discord Bot is sometimes a little on the slow side though, so if none of this resolves it and a day or two passes with no change, please reach out to me in a private message and I'll contact Patreon to see if they can give the bot a swift kick so it wakes up.


Q: I have a business proposal of some kind. Where can I contact you?
Private Messages on Patreon or on Twitter is where I can most consistently be reached, as I monitor those daily. Note that asking for a commission or pricing thereof is not a business proposal - I'm not saying this to be snide or clever, but because I have genuinely had to explain this to several people.


Q: Why don't you do [X kind of content]?
Personal preferences. I don't judge anyone for liking stuff I don't, but I have to be mindful so that I don't end up courting an audience that just enjoys stuff that I don't, which is one hell of a recipe for burnout.


Q: Can I use your work in my own work (IE: sound editing, compilations etc) that I then publish to other pages?
The most common survey response from new backers that I get is a desire to "access exclusive work". Given that I am economically dependent on this platform to pay my bills, I sadly do not give permission to post my Patreon material elsewhere, even if modified, and I will pursue DMCA takedown of my stuff if I come across it. My public work (noted as having my watermark) is of course another story, so feel free to use that for those purposes.
