General
As the cost of living undoubtely increases every year, I've found myself making changes to the prices of my pieces. While I strongly dislike the idea of doing it, I do find it at the very least comforting that it took me exactly one year since I made the last change to my prices, and I hope I can at the very least keep it at that rate. The prices for individual characters have increased $10 each, but the prices for illustrations featuring two or more characters has either stayed the same or has become slightly cheaper. This is mostly because I really still do not like the idea of someone shelling out more than a hundred fucking dollars into one of my drawings, and because I think the prices are reaching their highest point I feel comfortable offering them for the quality that they display, while trying to still offer some affordable options instead of the full-balls-to-the-wall-whole-enchilada type of deal. I really don't want, and I really do hope that I don't have to increase these numbers for a long time anyways. I know most people don't care, but like I've always said in matters of money, I like to be transparent.
But, don't just take my word for it, you can compare these new prices to the old price sheet I featured.
In other topics, you can find me at bluesky and newgrounds. While I have a presence on twitter, I've never liked the site in the first place and I don't seem to find a proper hour to post so people can actually see the posts, I keep it up mostly because there are people there still interested in getting the YCHs that I share from time to time that don't follow me here. Barely any people follow me on BSky and NG so I don't post them there, so I believe limiting myself to just sharing them here is not fair for those who actually are interested in buying them. Regardless, if you want a different place to follow me, you have those other two (three?) options.

I also want to draw more "forgotten" characters, as you can see recently I did a piece with Maeve, and I'm looking to do something with her sister, Hazel, but I'd like to know if there are other characters you people would like to see more of, because the only explicit, rare drawings I do mostly feature Ace and Madison, and those are more about character development or exploration, rather than actually fucking porn. So, I guess now's your chance to let me know if there's this one character I apparently did just one piece of, or that I haven't drawn in a while that you'd like to come back, I suppose.

Finally, I'm once again asking you to check
EggMarcelo, a college's colleague and friend. He's mostly active on twitter (https://x.com/GMarcelo0_) but I have been trying to convince him to use other platforms to have other chances to be found. He's... not as active, but I really would like for some people to reach out to him and give him like... some comments, or buy something from him (like me, he also could use the money, if you think I'm getting too greedy now and don't deserve your money anymore), I don't know, something that shows him that it could be worth posting more of his drawings online. I don't expect him to like... blow up or something from overnight, but it'd be a waste for him to just drop what he likes to do, so give him a chance if you find the spare time.

Do you want a character request? Come and earn it by telling me what you plan on accomplishing by heavily encouraging people to go with a multiple char drawing instead of just solo. What stops me from spending 60$ on a used-to-be 70$ drawing to get two characters worth 90$, if that wording makes any sense?

IF you need my take on price increases, then instead of +10 on the base, you do +5, but with the additional characters being priced 50-80%, still less than the whole 100% as you intend, and in my example, if you take 50%, it's 60$ the same, but can also be 72$ if the other character is fully shown and doesnt have any body parts unpainted. Lesser incentive to overload you with work, but still viable so you don't feel like you're "scamming" us.
