Some updates and maybe an increase in number of pages!
Added 2023-08-09 01:39:06 +0000 UTCHey all! So a few quick updates. Recently I've been getting treated for my ADHD and it's lead to pages being a lot easier to complete than before. At a point just before gencon I was about 4 pages ahead on here, painting for week 3 august biz. I was considering upping the amount of pages per month from 6, to 7 and maybe 8. My idea is to do every monday, and every other thursday. As it stands right now our thursday posts are contingent on how many mondays are in a month. So if there's 5 mondays, one thursday page. 4 mondays, 2 thursday pages, etc.
As this patreon is based on a per-page basis, that's why I wanted to ask your opinion first. Patreon does allow you to set a limit on how much per month you're donating so most probably won't see any increase, but for others it'd be another 2, 5, or 10. I also am worried about locking into a full 7-8 pages a month, so i'm looking to do it as more of *hopeful* 8 pages a month, and 6 as a definite. Most folks know this, but if you don't, I work for Magic the Gathering a good bit and they've been upping the number of assignments i've been doing the last few months. Sometimes deadlines come together all at once, sometimes it's spread out. CS is my passion project so it's not like I'd ever stop doing this, but sometimes these deadlines might effect the number of pages out. (i'm currently doing 4 images at the same time due tomorrow, for example)
Other news: We've hit 1 million pages viewed on the comic's site! We currently sit at 1,044,511 pages right now with just short of 180K Visitors. With that site being active just under a year, that's insanely cool and I'm beyond excited how well the comic is doing :D
Last bit! We're down to the last 100 of both our Neri and Cempe Plushies. When these are out, we won't be restocking them. CS2 will contain up till the end of chapter 10, so we'll hopefully be getting new merch and new plushies out then. If we up the number of pages, we'll get there sooner :D Gonna get a few more of the Patreon directed sketches out after deadlines cool down, but let me know your thoughts on if more pages is okay :D

Late comment here, but I'm totally cool with the slight increase as long as it's still handlable on your end
