It’s been 33 weeks since I started, and I wanted to do an update on my current situation. To cut to the point; after doing some calculations it turns out I run about €80 short every month. This is combined with the fact that I seem to have hit the ceiling on my current business model. I am gaining more patrons, and at the same time I am losing total patreon dollar amount monthly.

Money calculations:$540 donations put in on august translates to a $483 displayed on the top of the page. This amount after conversion to euros and with paypall fees turns to €408. My monthly costs like rent/food is €490.(But let it not be known that I am ungrateful. $540 holy shit you guys!! I’m just making sexy art XD) 

The future of this patreon:To counteract this loss of money I will have to take action. Currently I am opening myself up to commissions ( https://funkybunnsfw.tumblr.com/post/171140722373 if you are interested) at least to keep me afloat till the comic ends. I might also have to skip doing comic work once monthly if it gets rough. 

After the comic ends I will look into changing the patreon business model; including different tiers and rewards, focusing less on a single big comic project, and more on smaller interesting interactive stories. (I am open for ideas on how to make patreon incentives more interesting).I am also looking into taking a ~10 hour part-time job to essentially double my income. This will cut into my art hours, but is a necessity at this point as I haven’t been able to afford any comfort item for the last half year.

I will not be going away any time soon.I am still very positive about the future of this patreon and I have too much good stuff in my head! But I will be working on making this job more doableThank you all for the amazing 33 weeks of sexy! I wouldn’t have been able to do this without you <3

If you have suggestions or improvements, please don’t hesitate to tell me!

Hell yeah I’m interested in a commission! I’ll have to hit you up soon! also, if you are able, you should try another comic once this one is finished. Maybe something along the lines of a virgin nerdy male losing his virginity to a really cute girl he likes

The part time job, if you can find one with such short hours, would be a good idea really. Don't want you burning out later on from trying to make art happen to pay for everything~ Though, your happiness for your art, and how it reflects in your drawings, that's very admirable~

I love your art style and characters! But I think I especially enjoy the story as it is not just some washed up porn you get everywhere but something really cute and daring instead (while being pretty sexy at the same time!). So regarding the future after your current comic... I for one would rather upgrade my tier if that meant you'd continue stories of about the same length :3

I've tinkered with Patreon rewards a little, starting with supporter-only content, basically something special for your supporters. :3 If I were to make suggestions based on what I have for my reward tiers, on the $3 Tier you have access to any sketches of art I have done over the month - this is easy, because for every art piece you have completed, you would have already created a sketch, so it's hardly any extra work there! :3 For $5, I have wallpaper piece for my patron's [computer] desktop. I also recently added an art stream where my $5+ supporters can make sketch requests during the stream (don't ask me on how well it works for me, I have yet to have my first stream, which hopefully should happen on Saturday!) ^^;; For the $10 Tier, for the past two months, I've had special poster art - two posters especially for my $10+ supporters. Last month poster #1 had Babs Bunny (Tiny Toon Adventures), and poster #2 had Babs as a human. This month, it will be Bart Simpson, and poster #2 will have Bart Simpson depicted as a girl (with a free Milhouse thrown in) :P The $20 and $30 Tiers still mostly run with the previous tier rewards, and I recently added a $50 and $100 Tier as well. But anyway, I figure the poster art might be something you could do, ESPECIALLY with WHAT you do~ ;) And you would only have to make a set number per month, and you'd get to decide how many! I thought of just one, but I settled on two, it gives me the chance to do a character (not THAT kind of do :P) as their regular self, then do them in a second version... like I said, last month I made a human version of Babs, and this month I made a female version of Bart. :3 But that's me. Image what kind of sexy or suggestive poster art you could potentially do? :D ...well, it was a suggestion, anyway. Thought it might be useful. :3
