Hello everybody!

this month we have some reduction in funding. Perhaps it is the fault of people's desire to optimize their expenses this month before Black Friday ... and plus a certain number of those who do not read a large text at the entrance and expect to receive $ 3 at once for all 250+ pages of the comic ... some of these people left us .

Whatever it was, we have 1,700-1,800 dollars for this month (depending on whether all of the payments that are now in the status of uncertainty are processed).

This means that this month we have a reduction from 20 frames +1 raffle page for VIP sponsors

we can only make 16-17 panels + 1 raffle page for VIP sponsors.

However, this is quite good and some free time before the New Year holidays, we do not hurt. I admit 20 panels per month required some notable efforts on the part of our team;)

So, we continue. the first update will be as usual with a little delay - we need time to work with the plot, drawing up a work plan for this month and other manipulations behind the scenes of this theater. But we will try to make it to the 5th-7th day of the month. In addition, in the coming days we will publish the raffle pages of the winners of the last two rounds, it will be very soon, I hope.

Thanks for being with us! ;)

Not to be critical of you, but I think your reduction in funding could be a couple other factors as well. I've been waiting a while to see the story develop and there have been so many panels that i can only describe as "filler" content. You have teased relationships early on, but then absolutely nothing develops from it. That is getting pretty old honestly and it is a shame because I like the art style, I like the characters and I like the story you are developing. It just needs to start going somewhere or I believe you are going to lose a lot more folks who are just tired of waiting. The second issue is your exceptionally confusing payment ..thing. I support several furry artists and none of them have your strange scheduling. In fact some of them post their work for free later at other sites. But people such as myself still subscribe to their content because we are just incapable of waiting a week for it to be free. I would rather pay 5 to 10 bucks a month to get decent resolution pics immediately instead of waiting. The way you have it set up seems pretty harsh. You reward customers who have been around a while by not making them wait but you punish new customers by making them wait and/or forking up a substantial amount at once to get caught up. That's why your losing folks I'm thinking. But out of the two, I believe it's just the amount of filler panels you are putting out that is having the most detrimental effect. Again I apologize that this is coming off harsh, I support you and I want you to succeed because I would like to see the comic...but a 5 to 6 panel jaunt through the countryside, and constant situations that tease a development but all get reset and go nowhere...that has seriously dulled my enthusiasm. If this where a normal comic page where you have a series of events on a single panel that kind of development would be over in a page or two, but with full panels we are literally looking at fluff for months at a time. Anyway, best of luck to you.

> I believe you are going to lose a lot more folks who are just tired of waiting. well, we fully understand that if we created a porn that was 99% consisting of a continuous demonstration of the genitals, then perhaps we would earn 10-15 times more money. But this is too monotonous and depressing. Just a set of meaningless demonstrations of poses and a set of banal phrases. All this has already been drawn thousands of times. If you open 50 of any typical furry comics and flick through them in one day ... the next day you are unlikely to recall the details of 45 of them. All that you have left in the memories of these comics - some of the most successful staff. Out of the total mass of banal postures, identical expressions of faces. We do not want to create another one of a thousand such comic books. We want to create a novel that will contain a complex and beautiful story. We believe that people who are able to experience any complex emotions and are able to appreciate the plot are good enough to understand the difference between fast food and the good old restaurant. We are trying to be a restaurant offering sophisticated dishes. Not fast food. We want to create a story that stands out from the endless stream of dull porn. We want to make this graphic novel so good that when we finish work on it ... it could become widely known not only among the furry fans. But also attract people who are not immersed in this fetish. We want to create a story that will show the development of relationships, the first love. The story, which will show some phenomena and events at an unexpected angle, will offer the viewer to comprehend certain nuances from different angles. We understand that our target audience is very small on the background of a huge flow of people wishing porn fast food. We understand that our profit would be higher if we created this fast food. But we want to try to create a story. If we succeed ... then this comic book will be known "in the top 10". If it does not work out ... well, the market decides everything. In case of failure of this project, we will reconcile and probably will create porn fast food. Just to make money. Do not put in it any special hopes and deep goals. But at this stage, when we have already shown a significant development of the plot, introduced the viewer to all the characters and managed to talk about some of the nuances of this world ... now it seems to us that it makes sense to finish this project without turning it into 2-3 scenes of sex between different characters and not having written "the story is finished" after that. Because it makes no sense to continue. After all, this story will be exhausted. You know what a porn movie is 15-20 minutes different from serials like "game of thrones", right?

Additionally - through this process I've seen you, the creators, react poorly, almost aggressively, to criticism on numerous occasions, including in the above commentary. This is another of the reasons I'm still considering withdrawing my support. Listen to the people who are paying for your product. Take their advice when it is offered.

> Additionally - through this process I've seen you, the creators, react poorly, almost aggressively, to criticism on numerous occasions, including in the above commentary. try to spend 2 years of your life (a significant part of the days in which - 12 hours of work). just try it. get a few thefts of your work, a lot of idiots in the comments trying to convince you that to work for free is the best way. Or listen to thousands of theories that the best way to avoid robbery is to live on the street and not have any things that can be stolen. Go this way yourself, personally. And for the third year of this story - tell me, can you react to some types of "criticism" with restraint and delicacy? Something tells me that your answers would be much less restrained if you did all the way that we did. > This is another of the reasons I'm still considering withdrawing my support. Listen to the people who are paying for your product. Take their advice when it is offered. in one of the projects we did so. we allowed all wishing to participate in the story and vote to decide what will happen next. Imagine a cook who cooked a good soup. Then people came to him. Someone threw the snickers into the soup, because he likes snickers. Someone threw a cake there, because the cake is cool! One of the clients decided that his old cowards were the perfect side dish and also threw it into the soup. Another customer threw cigarettes there, and the fifth - chewing gum. Another one put a comb there, and another - an aerosol from insects. The resulting dish was not eaten by any of them. Neither the one who liked cake. Neither the one who threw the chewing gum. Not even the one who wanted to just soup. Normal normal soup. We are always glad to hear the reasoned criticism, based on which there is at least some reflection. At least a glimpse of thought and at least a minimal life experience. But 99% of what people call criticism is actually "I want everything at once and for free." I'm tired of a lot of people whose life experience is less than my home fish in the aquarium. I just want to do my job well and am glad when someone likes it. If someone does not like it - I will not make efforts (and all the more lick the asses of all those who are dissatisfied) in order to get someone extra dollar. As my life experience shows, this will only delay the inevitable and become more negative by the development of events than I prefer. I've checked this a thousand times. Therefore, I do not see any reason to be hypocritical and try to look better than I am. I say those words I think. I guess if all people did also - the world would be much easier. Less "gray spots", fewer places where everyone understood something is not what they wanted to say to him. Less likely to make mistakes that aggravate the problem.
