Hi again everyone - I am back with one new render for DA this time around, although there is (or will soon be, if you somehow read this right as I post it) a second new(ish) render available on my slushe page as well... since I cannot post that one on DA. (The other image is an old Patreon exclusive bonus valentine image that I had to take down due to my page forcibly being reclassified, so I may as well post it elsewhere.) Sorry I do not have anything else to post this time around, but I do at least have the one nice render for you today - and hopefully you all will enjoy it. :) Genuinely no idea when I will post more stuff on here next - I had wanted to make another render or two for this segment but I did not have the time/energy. I may come back with something in a week or two, but that is a definite maybe - no promises or anything. I should be back again in two months if nothing else - but I am working on a few other things here and there that I may come by to post about; even if I can't post it here directly... no idea when that might get finished. Other that that, I am still horribly confused as to why almost all of my work is classified as "sensitive content" on here even when it isn't - I suspect it is the work of some lazy and crappy algorithm that DA used to auto-flag everything for no real reason. I have seen various renders go back and forth from flagged to not, and vice versa. I do not think it is worth the bother to submit a support ticket over it - but I might do that just to figure out wtf is going on and preferably why. (If anyone already knows for sure, do let me know.) As usual, if you would like to support my assorted works, then check out my newly redone Patreon page! : https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart Of course, if you like this stuff and want to see more, leave comments and check out my other assorted pages/work! (Site, slushe page very NSFW.) Worth mentioning here is that I have the entire Road to Lithorca story arc as well as a playable demo of my previous game, "Salune's slave training" available on my site for FREE! (LITC chapters 1, 2, and now also 3 (!) are also free on my site now - for those who have not yet seen them.) My shorter commission info page on DA is here; but is missing some of of the more NSFW options - fav.me/davjety Any favorites, watches, comments, and/or support really help motivate me and let me know that people like my work. -------------------------------------------------------------- (Site/slushe NSFW and such.)

Hi everyone. I have returned with one brand new Xmas side render for you - that I think is quite nice, and one (two kinda) older one - formerly a Patreon bonus render. I was recently forced to redo my Patreon page and turn it SFW or lose it, since I refuse to go along with their retarded forced ID crap and risk total identity theft for no good or logical reason. That means there are a couple random older renders that I can now post other places, such as these two. Sorry I couldn't get anything else new done in time - but at least you get something. (I really wanted to at least get one new holiday render posted - and I did that.) Anyway, I hope you all like these - and I hope you all have a safe and Merry Xmas! Also, as the title suggests - I have a new gumroad coupon for everyone, which I really wanted to put in/up since I skipped black friday this year... but the whole year has been a mess for me all around - with all kinds of changes to how I do pretty much everything related to this project; so it kind of fits that even fairly standard things are going a bit different in all kinds of ways.

Anyways, the code this year is: rlaxmas2022

And that will/should get you 40% off anything in my gumroad shop - so use it while you can! I will disable this code early on January 1st (EST) 2023, as per usual with these sales. (You have about a week; let me know if there are any issues.) Quick other note - I would like to again point out the recent failings of DA, and recommend against giving them any money. (I have gotten a dozen or more emails from them in the past month begging me to buy core - which I will never do again.) It took me two tries to upload two of these latest renders; one I had to pull and reupload, and the other the site just ate entirely, and I had to redo it all. Also, it appears that the site has clamped down hard on NSFW anything - or what it even suspects is NSFW anything, as most all of my renders (even the specifically SFW ones) have now been forcibly censored if you are not logged in to DA... for "Sensitive Content" - whatever the hell that means. (Likely just BS made up to appease someone at the artists' expense... much like Patreon's recent move, it doesn't make much of any sense realistically.) This site is far less good (or even functional) now that it was two/three years ago - and that is quite sad... and I do not see that improving anytime soon - again, much like Patreon. I do still plan to post here for the time being... but I am not at all happy about this new twist, and I imagine most all artists are not either.

Hi guys. Sorry this is so late, but I wanted to get in whatever I could, and I have been busy/tired all around. (Still technically on time though... at least here.) Long story semi-short, I have two new side renders - as well as one new public post of an old Patreon exclusive render from several years back. (I had a third render planned, but I ran out of time/energy.) The new Halloween one is a sequel to the one from last year, since that was well received - and the other is just a fun render featuring Lucia. (The older one is a Halloween image featuring Helenya.) Side note, the polls over on my main site could also really use some more votes... not that it will do much for the October polls anymore. I hope you all like these, and had/have a safe and fun Halloween - and I hope to be back soon(ish) with some other new stuff for you all soon... though I have no idea when that might be. (I have a ton of logistical crap to to do for many of my pages, including clearing out my Patreon page manually in order to try and make it SFW.) As usual, if you would like to support my assorted works, and/or perhaps get access to some of my paid content, then check out my Patreon page!

Hi guys. Sorry again for the lack of updates/content this month, but I am still just totally drained from the last couple months, and have not yet had much of a chance to recover. The Patreon policy people still have not gotten back to me after I emailed them a week ago, so I am not clear on the situation with my page and the upcoming forced changes yet. (I have been waiting to post here until I got more information... but nothing yet, so I have to just post what I have.)


The main thing to note here is that I am totally getting rid of my old schedule, as things have basically only gotten worse this year, and I have had issues even keeping up with a mini-set every other month since the summer got into full swing and the shit hit the fan. What this means is that I am effectively adopting the schedule that most artists seem to have, which is that I will do whatever I can, whenever I can... which will hopefully lead to more/better content in the long term, once I recover from the past few months. (And likely more side renders overall.)


Also, I am leaving the description on my Patreon page alone for now, despite changing my schedule - because I will almost certainly have to rework the entire thing very soon anyway, due to Patreon forcing me to change my page in the next few months since I since I refuse to endanger myself with their retarded forced """age confirmation""" crap for all 18+ pages when I currently get like $20 a month. The $15 tier will still get a mini-set of choice next month, as it will until I am forced to change this page... whenever that is.


In the immediate term, I have no idea when I will get back to working on LITC 6, but at this moment, I am trying to get enough energy/motivation back just to do the October/Halloween side render stuff that I do every year in a couple weeks. I have no idea why that is/has been a thing, but I do want to keep that up if I can... so we will see what happens. The other thing some long-time fans may have been expecting around now is effectively delayed until after LITC 6... so again, no clues on that yet either.


As for the Patreon thing, it will likely either become just a tip jar, if I am forced to wipe the NSFW stuff from it; or effectively a tip jar with some tiered bonuses - as it kind of has been for a few months now. (I don't yet know what I will/can do with my "regular" content if my NSFW Patreon has to be taken down... but that is a mess for another day.) This is of course presuming that I am able to keep my page up at all... but as far as I can tell now, that should at least be possible if I re-classify it - I hope. I will let you all know about this whenever I get clarification. Other than that, be sure to check out my other pages/work if you haven't yet! (The polls over on my site could always use some more votes!)

Hey DA people. Sorry for the gap in content/updates here - but I have had a really messy time these past two months. There is a lot to go over... but first I need t catch you guys up; I really wanted to stop by and post some kind of update here so there wasn't such a large gap with nothing again. (Long update here, by the way - so likely just for people who actually care for details.) Long story semi-short: Late in July the weather here was super hot and humid - which gave me near constant weather migraines, so I couldn't really work on all this, as the visual work and/or typing kill my eyes and head, even when I'm not already in pain. Then in early August, the weather was mostly better, but I had a filling cause me notable pain and sensitivity - and I had to get that worked on once a week until I finally had a root canal last week, with the base crown work the day after. Since then, I have just been physically out of it - and now the weather is super humid again... so it is just a mess. So effectively, I have nothing new ready right now, and I am not likely to have anything before the month is up - maybe one side render; but likely not even that. I am so out of it right now that I am making constant mistakes that I never used to, and I am fairly confident that I need to go over anything I have done recently to check for errors before submitting it anywhere. I plan to just delay any new mini-sets again next month to try and finish LITC 6 again... and just give a choice mini-set to mid-tier patrons; although that is not going to matter much soon, in theory. On that note - I recently also found out about some complications from Patreon, regarding new rules for NSFW creators. For those who are not yet aware, I got an email from Patreon a couple days back that they are planning to very soon force all 18+ creators on Patreon to submit government photo IDs and pictures – allegedly at the demands of mastercard, their payment processor. This is a similar situation to a year or so ago when OnlyFans tried to ban adult content, again – allegedly at the behest of their payment processor… but at least they backed down from that since it would have destroyed them, kind of like when tumblr banned adult content. Allegedly, this is being done to fight ‘illegal content’ – but as most of you will realize, their plans will have a very, very minimal effect on that… while endangering/irritating everyone else; just like most video game DRM. I could easily do it of course – but this is just the latest in a long line of steps against 18+ creators that Patreon has done… and honestly, I basically consider this dangerous and gross invasion of privacy the last straw. I never made much on Patreon anyway, but if their plans do not change, I will likely have to permanently suspend my page there; I cannot abide this sort of thing just on principle, really – it is just so very stupid and dangerous of them to require this... especially when it won't really accomplish anything positive. (Or, it is just cowardly and weak of them to bend over for the credit card companies so easily and completely, and risk their customers' safety by doing so.) I did send them a long email the other day outlining how stupid and dangerous this decision was – but I don’t expect them to change their minds just because of me… however, if a ton of people also complain – then maybe they might go back on it, much like google and onlyfans did. (I did get a reply from them, by the way - one that commended me for writing them while also effectively ignoring several of my points, seemingly recognizing that there is no logical basis for their planned actions. She basically just told me to attend the upcoming livestream for more info, that they planned to allow less risky ID types soon, and apologized that I hadn't heard about this until now.) The real problem with all this is that even if they do go back on it now, they have laid their cards/plans on the table – and it is effectively just a matter of time until they do something else to marginalize (or straight up ban) NSFW creators again. So while I would likely stay if they change their minds, I am definitely going to accelerate my plans to cultivate other options. And yes, I know they plan to allow other, lesser IDs soon- but that isn't much better; unless they plan to accept library cards, or something similar that borders on pointless I likely will not endanger myself by going along with this. (Although that would be poetic if they did accept something pointless - a stupid solution to a stupid and forced non-issue.) And for those who don't know and/or forgot, Patreon already lost almost all their customer's personal information and posts several years back - so I have no real faith in any of this; even though they plan to outsource it... it just seems like a ton of risk for no valid reason. Again, much like DRM, this will not realistically stop any illegal anything - it will effectively enable it by posting a trove of IDs somewhere. People have been using fake/stolen IDs since the dawn of the internet... and it is no different now - hell, it's probably easier. To be extra real with you all about this new requirement – when I first read about it, I was actually far more concerned for some of the artists that I support/like that are on Patreon, rather than myself… which I suppose you can take several different ways. I have long heard other NSFW creators warning against leaning too hard on Patreon, etc (or any one thing) – for this very reason… and that is partly why I have my gumroad page, and others; plus, I have been considering listing some of my stuff elsewhere if need be. (To get more exposure, if nothing else.) Strangely, I just don’t feel overly concerned for myself about this – likely because I have little left to lose there, and I never made much with it anyway. I have no idea what I will do if I am forced to suspend my Patreon page – but I can make my other content available via gumroad if nothing else… at least in the mean time. (All the mini-sets are on there anyway.) I was already in the middle of a fairly radical rethink of my whole project here, primarily because what I have been doing for years just has not really been working out, for whatever reason – so this actually may not change much. (Yes, I know I have been super behind this summer - mainly because my summer has just been a crappy mess... but still, you know what I mean.) No clue when I will be back here with something more substantial, but thanks to anyone who reads this, and/or follows me; I hope to have something soon. Other than that, be sure to check out my other pages/work if you haven't yet! (The current polls over on my site could really use some more votes...)
