Patreon miniset 5 posted, previous poll results, and two new polls up now!

Hey all. I have posted Patreon miniset five, it features Zayla and some imps in a few images. Below is one one the seven images as a preview. If you like my work and want to support me, you can get access to sets such as this each month as well as helping to decide what goes into them (to some extent) most of the time as well as just getting my normal sets early. (I am still considering extending the Patreon exclusivity length.) Support also helps my side projects go faster; such as animations and games. Just in case you didn't read the update in the other post; I have also posted the two new bios on the character page if you are into that.

I have taken down the old polls, a few hours before it was technically over but there have been no new votes in the special poll since yesterday so I figured it was done. (I also have something to do later, so I am writing this now.) The result of the special poll is that most people want me to work on the slave training game, so I will do that for the first half of February. If you have questions or want to ask if certain things will be in the game or make a suggestion, feel free to ask in the comments. (The scenes are still being planned so now is the time.) The other options in the poll got a fair few votes though, which is always nice to see that there are other things that I do that people like. The other polls are discussed after the break, to keep this post from being too large. New polls are up though, so vote on those! I am not sure when my next update will be given that I will be working on the game, but I will try to post something next week with a progress report.

25k views and Patreon revamp!

Hi everyone. This blog just hit another important milestone; 25k overall pageviews! So I made this image for the occasion; there is a pg 13 version of it on my deviant art page as I mentioned last post. The image features Zayla and Salune posing with some of Zayla's various toys.

In other news I have rewritten much of the Patreon page; and shifted some of the benefits around, as well as changing some basic things. There are now more benefits/goodies available at lower support levels along with custom stuff available at higher support levels. I added a $2 support level which just gets you access to the Patreon feed where I post previews and promo images. There is also the basic $5 tier that gets you early access to my normal image sets as well. (The exclusivity period is currently a month, I may extend this in the future if need be.)

Considering that I now plan to work on animations and games as time allows, those have been added to the content list and are generally available (games get early releases/previews on Patreon, animations get high quality mp4/gif files on Patreon) for the $15 tier along with all the 'bonus" content now. (Early/unused renders and the like; this used to be on the tier above.) The $15 tier and above also get access to the Patreon polls that determine some part of a set each month and even help me decide what to make on occasion, as well as getting the Patreon exclusive "mini" set that I make each month, such as the one I made last week. (It was full size at 24 images with a comic version as well, but that was abnormal.) If you want to see something specific from me, there are tiers that can accommodate that as well. The top two tiers basically allow the patrons to ask for whatever they want for that month; so if there is something specific that you really want to see or have me work on, that is an available option.

Any and all support is appreciated; the more support I get for this project, the better my work will be and the more content I can make. I have two funding goals set, a low one to increase quality and the higher one being that I double the base number of images per set; which would be amazing. Anyway, I hope to get the seventh set done and posted to Patreon this coming week, and the sixth set gets released free at the end of the week as well so keep checking back for those.

EDIT 12/23: Construction on set seven is done, I plan to render it tonight. I think this one is really nice, probably because this is the first public set I have done since I actually got a rendering card, so now I can actually put props/scenery in the scenes. (The Patreon set two weeks ago was the actual first.) I am going to try and get all the writing/postwork done and ready today so that I can just slap it on the images tomorrow when the renders are done. So unless something horrific happens with the renders, I hope to have set seven posted to Patreon tomorrow. Also, I will probably take the votes down when I post the sixth set publicly at the end of this week; so vote now if you haven't already!

EDIT 12/24: So something did happen while rendering the seventh set, it isn't major but I want to redo it and I don't think I am going to have time to redo the images and finish the postwork today. The problem isn't horrific as I thought it might be (that was something else that I actually caught in time) but there is an important prop in over half the scenes that didn't show up right if at all for some reason that I need to figure out. I do not plan to work on this tomorrow because it's a holiday but if I can't finish it all today I will just have to release it on friday. Sorry for the delay again but I want this to be as good as it can be.

Set five free release!

Hi everyone. It's time for set five to be released free and I hope you all like it. This is a much better representation of what I can do both with the images and the writing compared to the earlier sets. It is 33 images total, featuring Zayla and her new friend Salune the futa elf. The archive comes with both clean and comic versions. I am still very limited by time and hardware/software, but I think this is still pretty good.

I could really use comments on this, it would help me improve faster and do more of what you guys like. I also still could use votes in both polls on the right, as both will help me decide what to work on. Here are two new preview images of set five, (the other four are from the original post) and this time I am posting the comic versions of two images.













Anyway, here is the download link, the password is "redleatherart". If you like my work please spread the word about my work/blog and consider supporting me on Patreon.

Set five posted to Patreon!

Hey everyone. It's a bit late but I stayed up to finish this tonight. This has been a messy last few days working on this, but that's what happens sometimes. Regardless, I finished the fifth set and posted the link on Patreon; it ended up being a massive 33 images. I want to emphasize that this is way over the 20 that I am for in a large set and is not normal; I just keep going overboard. If you want to see it before a month from now and help me make my images better and faster, check it out. The higher tiers on Patreon will also get to vote on fairly regular Patreon exclusive polls about things that go into my future sets. My Patreon is http://www.patreon.com/redleatherart and there is also a button on the right of the blog. The $5 Patreon tier and above get early access to any sets that I make in addition to other bonuses, check my Patreon page for details.

The set features Zayla as she won the previous special poll and also features Salune, a new character I made a while back. She was made to cater to the futanari crowd out there, which according to the current poll is substantial. Not necessarily my favorite thing, but if people want it, what can you do. Sorry about the delay on this, but if I had decent hardware at home to make this with stuff like that wouldn't happen. (And if it did I could fix it in hours instead of days...)

There is also a substantial chance that I made some minor errors in final construction of the fifth set, as I have been working for hours to get this done tonight and am really tired. I will check again as soon as I can and correct any issues that may be there. I also know I meant to talk about the big poll and post new ones, but that can wait until tomorrow. So I will post again then; in the meantime I hope you all like this new set. I think it came out really well and the the story part is hopefully good too. The story is more serious than the fourth set but still not quite up to the fairly serious level that people seemed to want from a previous poll. Quality is also improving as I get back into writing, and will only get better.

As before, the archive on Patreon features a clean folder and a comic folder. These preview images are from the clean version. Constructive comments are welcome, and as always spread the word about my blog if you like my work.

10,000 views!

Awesome news people; this blog has been viewed over 10,000 times as of today. This is an important milestone for all websites/blogs, and as such I have made you guys the image below to celebrate. It features Zayla with my recent updates to her. (Plus some of her new toys.) Thanks, everyone.

A very special thanks to the various 3d artists that exchanged links with me and helped this happen.

I have also posted a third mini-set on Patreon, featuring Zayla and some of her new toys that I got this week (six images). I put a preview image in the post below. It also looks pretty surely decided that Zayla will co-star in my next set, but I will wait until it ends tomorrow to post a new poll or two. (It looks like the clothing preference one has run it's course as well, ending with a preference for slutty clothing and a bit of sexy and minimal, which I can totally do.)

Third set early release!

Hello again. So as I mentioned in my last few posts I will be on vacation starting tomorrow for one week. This means that there will be no posts or updates during that time and that there will likely be little work done on the fourth set the week that I return as I have to catch up on work and other things.

Given all this, and noting that I first posted the previews for the third set almost two weeks ago, I am going to go ahead and release the third set early due to my impending absence. I want to give you all something new while I am gone and I did not want to leave such a large gap between content since my next set probably won't be done until about two or three weeks from now. Normally sets will be Patreon exclusive for a month, this is just a special case since I am going on vacation.

If you like my work and want to support it and help it improve, there is a link to my Patreon page on the right. The higher tiers on Patreon will also get to help me decide what to put in my future sets, so until some people sign up for those tiers I will just continue to try different things and do what I like.

As always please spread the word about my blog if you like my work, and constructive comments are welcome.

Oh and please vote on the two polls under the Patreon link, they will help me decide how to implement stories into my image sets.

Third set up on Patreon

Hey again. My third set is done and is currently up on Patreon. (http://www.patreon.com/redleatherart.) I am very happy with how it turned out, and I like it very much. It features my mascot Zayla the Dark Elf and her new friend Lucia the curious Catgirl. Here are two preview images from the 17 image set.




It will be posted here in about a month, but it is on Patreon in the meantime along with some unused renders from this new set and the last one. There is also a small wallpaper mini set on Patreon as well as a VERY early preview of the girl I plan to use for my fourth set. Make sure to see which tiers get which rewards, as most of these things are only for the higher tiers. (Current sets and previews are for everyone; bonus stuff is higher tiers.) Any and all support is appreciated and will go a long way in terms of supporting my work and helping it get better.

This will be all for this month as far as full sets go, I may do another wallpaper mini set or something; but I will not get to the fourth set in earnest until next month. This is mainly due to work and also to me going on vacation on the 28th for a week, and I will be unable to work or access the internet during that time. (Going on a cruise.) I should be back on October 5, and will be able to start work on the fourth set sometime after that, depending on other factors.

EDIT: Knowing me, I may just end up doing it early anyway, we will see how much time I have. However, do not expect the fourth set until next month; I've already done three sets this month which is over my goal as it is.

First Set

Hey everyone,

I finally finished my first small set for this blog. It is comprised of six images featuring my blog's "mascot"; the busty dark elf Zayla. This is just a small taste of what is to come, but if you like it please spread the word about this blog and my work. I plan to have another small set ready sometime next week if everything works out.

Constructive comments on this set welcome, troll comments and spam will be deleted.
