Thank you. (Patreon)

I just had an upsetting experience this afternoon of finding an Etsy page with a handful of my files listed for sale for $12+ each, and apparently multiple sales had been made of each file. The page had been up for over a week.

I contacted the seller and he immediately took down the listings, claiming that someone on CGTrader had sold him the files at $10 a pop and told him that he was free to sell them. He seemed genuinely apologetic and provided me with the username of the person who had sold them to him, but the account no longer exists. Unfortunately, with digital files, this type of piracy is unavoidable.

However, the initial frustration quickly turned into gratitude, because I realized how awesome of a community we have here, all united by our love of that galaxy far, far away...and how honored I am to be supported in what I do here.

So mainly, I just wanted to express appreciation to all of you who are subscribed and who continue to support me. Aside from these rare instances, you all have respected my wishes to keep my work for your own enjoyment. It makes me so happy every time I'm tagged in one of your prints, or to see you get as excited as I do over a new design. Life can be tough and I love that we can all find time to play, print and paint our troubles away, even if just for a little while.
