Dear Patrons,
Admittedly, as I juggle all these stories at the same time, it brings me in a state of fugue for this update. So I've got to come clean. Sometimes, juggling so many stories may get a little overwhelming. I probably should start to have a narrower focus. Thanks to a couple of patrons, I've decided to fast-track a couple of storylines, drawing some set-up scenes one of which being THE CALIPHATE of which a couple of panels are shown here. So what I've decided to do is to share some of the progressions of the stories I have on the PROJECTS side of things. But among these "setup" scenes, I try my best to add some juicy bits (especially a nice piece of rump from the Mausoleum story!) to keep you sated and well-fed while try to catch up with the next update. Bon appétit!

I. MOMENT FROM THE CALIPHATE (1 colored finished artwork + 1 black & white sketch)
Here's a setup scene for the CALIPHATE storyline which takes place somewhere in a Middle Eastern war-zone.
And here's a sketch of what happens to one of the characters. A bit of foreplay, mayhaps?
II. MOMENT FROM THE MAUSOLEUM (1 colored finished artwork)
What did Al Pacino say in Scent of a Woman? Oh yes. "She got a GREAAAT ASSSS!"
III. MOMENT FROM LUA MATER (1 colored finished artwork)
As per discussion on Discord, members would like to see some of the ladies in life and I've begun to work more scenes and artwork as such as you can see around here. This is one proposed for one of the storylines, most likely, LUA MATER.
IV. MOMENT FROM SLENDER HARVEST (1 shaded unfinished work in progress)
Revisiting Cristoph Van Duyne's favorite past-time, the craft of the Human Jamon, The Slender Harvest.

Fantastic update. I’ve noticed you are often apologizing in your updates and I just want to mention two things.
First of all, you are one of the absolute best if not the best at what you do. This is a niche corner of the art/internet world and you provide a level of care to your work that hardly anyone else does.
Second, I can only speak for myself, but if all the stories are too much to keep up with, I personally am more than okay with stand alone art. I just love seeing your work. The stories are icing on the cake. Possibly you could work on one major story at a time and have the rest of the art in the updates that aren’t related to the current story just be stand alone art with small captions. You’ve woven such a deep a vivid world I can imagine it would be overwhelming.
Anyways, just wanted to pass that along to hopefully lift some of the weight. Also know your community is never too bothered by the wait, because your work is always worth it.
Thanks for all you do. We appreciate you.

Perhaps I have been putting a little too much pressure on myself. It’s only because I love the world I’ve created and want to do them justice as much for me as to my patrons. But your kind words help a lot. Thank you.

I concur with ‘disciple’. No need to apologize. Even though the ‘storylines’ I crave are not always the ones you publish, the sheer quality of you work is fantastic. Having dabbled with creating this kind of art myself I am acutely aware how much work this is and how difficult it is to find new angles that still satisfy the desire. Chapeau!

Yeah… pressure is only so good as it helps to achieve the goal. If it overloads you, things have to go, and not necessarily completely. A change of a degree is already a change.
Comfortable enough not to lose motivation, pressured enough to be motivated to achieve the goal.

This might be weird (what a surprise, right?), but with my life experience with different women and liking a lot of different kinky stuff, I can safely say that the picture of potential LUA MATER heroine makes my mind race. Like I’ve found someone special, which never happens, unfortunately. The facial features are beyond incredible. Guess one of the ideal visual types for me.
