Invisible Woman & Psylocke WIP


WIP of the first part of the Marvel Rivals idea I had. It'll be a short before-and-after AR pic to diapers, and I'll be introducing an existing character from Marvel as the instigator (that I've never used before).


In other news, after having my comics kicked off Gumroad few months ago, only about half or less of my customers have continued buying them. Not for lack of awareness either, because I've informed previous Gumroad buyers of new releases being posted on Pixiv several times now.

New website

So I can only conclude that these might be the issues people are facing:

1. Unwilling to sign up for an account on Pixiv.

2. Unable to see my posts because they're not aware that Pixiv blocks them if their country is set to US or UK in their profile.

3. Unwilling to fill up a Google Form to purchase.

4. Unwilling or unable to pay using Paypal.


To solve *some* of these issues, I'm looking to set up my own website. That immediately solves #2.


Ideally I want a way for people to sign up and order their desired comic, so that would solve #1 (maybe?) and #3. But e-mail services required to do that are a bit annoying to set up - these services often need to approve your account before you can start using them to send out e-mails.


#4 unfortunately is not something I can rectify.

Fanbox Tiers

I added a couple more Fanbox tiers, but I'm honestly not expecting people to contribute more than the cheapest right now, because I'm still maintaining my stance that Fanbox remain a tip jar.


This wasn't really the case before, but with my comic sales having declined, I do view the tips from Fanbox as support for me being able to afford the time to make the content I want for free.


I know people typically like subscription-type rewards to be stuff like polls and suggestions and stuff. But I've been avoiding those because honestly, I feel less pressured when I'm working on my own ideas. Commissions are fine because it's a set price. I can timebox it and treat it like work.


Plus if I did offer additional rewards here, I have to keep in mind that some people can't have access even if they wanted to, because Fanbox's payment options are even more...limited lol.

I love your work as well - please keep us posted as to what you choose to do. I know that for one, I don't like using paypal, but that's just me. :)
