Where is otter tale? Need thoughts on rewards (Patreon)

The next chapter is going to be horny. Like really horny.

So there's gonna be a lot of art for it. So it will take a bit more time for it to release.  I promise it will release before Midwest furfest (dec 5) no matter what though.

I am working on two cgs a day to get it all done. and this is just for the horny part, I will give an option to not do it though.

I'll be honest. the patreon rewards are starting to get in the way of working on the vn.

Mon-wed:personal art and vn work. 3 days

thurs-sunday: patreon rewards and commissions. 4 days

I need more time to do the vn and my own stuff

I originally did rewards for one person a week, alternating between 1 and two character tiers, but I felt that took too long. So I changed it to doing rewards for both tiers each week. I try to do one reward on thursday and friday.

But now I don't think people would be okay with reverting to the old way.

Or trying something else entirely for rewards.

I have been considering doing sketches with no color, but after years of always doing full pieces for people, I don't know if people would accept that.

And really the only way to free up time is to do less art outright. I don't really have time to focus on improving my art. My style is already fast, and I rarely run out of ideas, but I need to actually focus and not just churn out art all the time.

I just don't know what to do. I very much feel obligated to stick to the promises I made here. even if it gets in the way of what I need to do.
