2025 update and Fanbox changes

Added 2025-01-03 23:40:20 +0000 UTC

Happy new year everyone! Here to update you all on my plans for the year and share some thoughts about stuff~

First, I want to thank everyone who's been supporting me so far!!! 2024 was a rough year, but I'm still here doing art for everyone to enjoy. I don't have many thoughts to share about what's happened during last year, so let's go straight to my plans for 2025! This one is longer than the last one, I even broke it down in silly sections~

Fanarts and original content

Many of you may not know this, but I don't only draw fanart of gacha games, even if it's been more and more prominent for the past couple years and probably what I'm known for most at this point.

I've been mostly drawing fanart, but I'm also a character designer myself, as well as a writer and animator. These skills have been catching dust for some time, so I think it's a good time to make more use of them... So this year I want to somewhat drift apart from so many fanarts and work more on my own stuff. But do not fret!! This doesn't mean I'll completely stop drawing fanarts of your favorite silly characters, I enjoy drawing them so there's no reason to stop. It just means that I'll be incorporating more original stuff among the fanarts... I hope you'll continue liking my art even then~

Commissions and requests

Yes, I regularly take commissions, even if I never really advertise it. Most of the time I don't even post the ones I take, so this may come as a surprise to some. But what am I trying to say with this section? That for this year I want to try something different for taking requests and commissions, since I'm not completely happy with the system I have right now.

Going forward, I will be doing monthly request streams where you can pay me to draw whatever you want! Feels weird to write this as an advertisement haha. I will be announcing when these streams happen on Twitter, Baraag and/or the Discord server.

For those who don't know, I usually stream on Pomf: https://pomf.tv/stream/Orenjitoast

Supporter rewards update

The rewards for supporting me on Fanbox will also have a slight update. I won't be adding much new this time, but changing how things work a bit:

- First, I will bring back the monthly polls. Some of you noticed that there has been no new polls for the past months, and it's because I've been very busy with other projects and didn't have time for them. Well, they will be back, probably starting next month. The characters in the polls are always suggested by supporters in the Discord server.

- Monthly archives from before September 2023 will stop being available, starting now.

- Monthly archives will now be readable by everyone after their first introduction. They will still require a password to access that is only given to supporters. Some people has had trouble accessing them for one reason or another, so hopefully like this there will be no more issues.
