The Prospect of Payment
Greetings all. If you're reading this then you probably follow this page quite closely, or at least give enough of a damn to read these journal things. Kudos for you for that level of commitment. Anyway, as I floated a few uploads ago, I'm thinking of jumping ship from Deviantart for a number of reasons, mainly before I'm pushed with someone reporting my work and getting deleted without any means to continue it. SO, here we are. The leap of faith. The big pitch. Patreon. While i'll keep updating here on DA until the day I finally get booted off (which I suspect will happen with some of the material I have coming up being reported), I'm looking after 10+ years of making these comics to have them actually be worthy of a little income for my ever troubling life in finances. Comicaptor+ was a great success and thanks to all those who donated last year, but i'm looking for something a little less interactive and cheaper on your part. $1 a month. That's it. For that i'll upload shit that's weeks/months before DA release and also have those more mature comics exclusive to the paywall. The stuff that I fear DA will kick me off the site for. I have 1400+ watchers. If even half of you wonderful people could spare $1 a month for the continued and improved content (with uploads keeping as close to the twice a week format) and maybe even some pin-ups, exclusives and WIP offerings, I'm hoping my continued financial plans will finally be solved. Hell, along with my real job it might be enough for me to actually adult as I move into my future (house move and lady) next year all being well. What do you think dear watchers? Would you part with $1 a month for lil' old me... and the continued misadventures of our many heroines? leave me a comment, I'm happy to discuss this and answer any questions. CC
COMICAPTOR: ONE YEAR LATER
With Gotham Knights about to drop (and hopefully it's models making it into gmod) it's time to introduce you to my plans for the next few months here in regards to comics. Those in the know are aware that about 2 years ago (want to say 2?) I rebooted my universe with a new timeline and we've been in it ever since. Well it's time to move onto the next phase in this new timeline and use the GK models to justify moving from this current period of comics I'm now calling the "Divergence Era" and into what comes next... ONE. YEAR. LATER. Yep, I'm stealing it. One Year Later will follow on from my 20th volume of comics in the Divergence Era which will be titled... FALL OF THE JUSTICE LEAGUE and that will pave the way nicely to just change shit up in wilder ways to keep myself invested in telling these tales and also to give my more avid readers/followers something meaty story-wise to look forward to. I'll also be looking to sort out my page a little, maybe move the "Old Timeline" stuff to a download link and off the page and move the comics from the last 2 years into it's own folder away from the featured gallery... paving the way for it to be filled with the newer comics to come. No idea on the timeframe for this, all depends on those Gotham Knights models, as they'll be required to justify the time jump and i've got a backlog of comics to still upload, but I suspect this will all play out nicely around the turn of the year. 2023 - The Justice League falls, then we jump a year forward. Hope to have you along for the ride.
Deviantart? More like DeviantFART.
Terrible jokey title aside... Deviantart is really shitting the bed isn't it? Can't search favourites now because it's not cost effective? COST EFFECTIVE?! What does that even mean?! It's a FUCKING SEARCH BAR... how much COST can that be?!
Honestly thinking of jumping ship from DA to another platform at this point. The state of this website these days is trash and a spit in the face to it in it's pomp. Suggestions for other websites are welcome, maybe it's time to go full Patreon and see if there's a £1 a month option for entry level folks. Would you lovely people follow me for such a venutre? Or am I doomed to remain here on DA with it's lack of A FUCKING SEARCHBAR... A SEARCH BAR!!! C'MON! REALLY?! Day drinking on a thursday - commence.
Outstanding July Commissions
Can anyone who hasn't already sent their commission requests to me, do so by the weekend please. I'm going to be away for a few weeks, so would like to get on top of your requests before leaving so you're not left waiting into August for them. Cheers!
